Though NBC is expected to discuss its fall season plans at a Monday "infront" presentation, there is talk that the final word on Chuck, among a few other series, could be delayed.
NBC was expected to lay down verdict on 'Chuck' this Monday, May 4 but will not give out its decision until later in the middle of the month.

NBC had promised to announce the full list of pick ups on May 19.
Sources indicate that the bubble NBC dramedy with strong Web following is close to a third-season pickup.
The network had asked for significant budget reductions on top of the cuts producing studio Warner Bros. TV had already made going into the second season.
Finally, the official confirmation that NBC’s Chuck has been renewed has come. It has been renewed for 13 episodes. There is an option for a back 9, but whether or not NBC exercises it remains to be seen. Unknown still, as of this writing, but something we’ll know shortly is when it will air on NBC’s schedule. The rumor mill has been suggesting Fridays at 8pm. We’ll see.
