NBC's action comedy drama TV series, "Chuck", is alas excised from Netflix on Nov. 1, Tuesday. Knowingly, a number of television shows and movies are being removed from Netflix every month, which finally included "Chuck" on the list this time.

The series ran from 2007 to 2012 comprising of 91 episodes within five seasons. It revolved around a computer genius who all of a sudden turned into a CIA agent containing the United States government's top secrets inside his head. The show featured Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, Adam Baldwin, and Joshua Gomez to name a few, and was brilliantly created by Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak.

After several attempts of keeping the show on board with campaigns circulating around social media, the show's leads and fans are disheartened to hear it officially depart. The series' main characters, Chuck Bartowski (Levi) and Sarah Walker (Strahovski) joined the massive appeal, spreading the hashtag #SaveChuckAgain on twitter last month.

A Netflix restart online poll for "Chuck" was administered by What's on Netflix in 2015, supported by more than 10,000 fans. This, however, did not produce any significant upshot, leaving the series fandom in dismay. Even the rumored movie for the show had not been carried out.

After the much loved series was officially removed, Levi tweeted with the words "Rivers and Roads", which are lyrics of the finale song of "Chuck", denoting a meaningful farewell. Fans showered their support to the actor, who, with the hashtag #ChuckLivesOnInUsAll, believes in the mark that the show has imparted in the lives of its viewers.

 Nothing a binge can't mend.
