Eureka returns on Sci-Fi

[d3bruts1d]

I think Eureka was the first to actually do the "personal forcefield" right. When Fargo activated it, it surrounded ALL of him, even his feet. Any time you see this done on any other show, it always magically stops on the ground, and people can walk like normal.... here we actually had the shield lift him from the ground.

Its the little details like this that I really enjoy about the show.

Yes, a similar episode was done on Atlantis... but there, I actually wanted to see McKay die. :D

[Soham]

then, it is like kyle xy( the twist similarities)

[trix]

Hope it comes to the UK soon. Sci-Fi are showing repeats of the first series, although Sky One might get it again.

Damn, i hope Sci-Fi get it, i'm with crappy virgin media :cry:, Any kind of idea when it'll start showing?

I just watched season 1

Good show - the psychiatrist is hot :p

SPOILER IF YOU HAVENT WATCHED ALL OF SEASON 1

Uhh, I'm wondering, how come Henry can remember what happened in the other timeline when all others, beside Carter(the sheriff) can't?? :s Henry didn't do that time continuum thingy :p

[d3bruts1d]

This week's episode wasn't that good IMO. I had it figured out 10 min into the episode.

That, and I kept hearing the little old lady from Poltergeist saying "run away from the light".

Henry, in the beginning of this season, created a device to wipe out specific segments of memory for he and Carter to use. He used it unexpectedly on Carter and then destroyed the device. I guess he doesn't want Carter inhibiting his attempts to bring the chick back.

I liked this week's episode - I was totally fooled by the twist with the therapy visor - I didn't figure it out till right at the end, I thought it was a pretty cool idea.

Henry is becoming such a tragic figure...the part at the end where Carter is telling him how weird it is to remember things that didn't really happen and Henry just keeps a straight face during it...so sad.

Do you think that Zoe's mom will be coming back at any point? I kind of liked her and I think having her around would be really interesting for the Carter and Allison relationship.

I wouldn't mind seeing her back, like you said it could add an interesting bit to the show. Though, if it were to happen I'd expect it to be for her and Carter (what's his first name?) to remarry.

Season 1 just finished a few weeks ago here, missed the pilot episode but caught all the rest, it's a great show.

Shame the time it's on sucks, 10:30pm Thursday on "Ten HD", the channel's listing in the program guide fills up a 2-3cm high area at the bottom of the page, I'd say 99% of people would miss it entirely.

[Pretend]

Woo!..... on tonight! :woot:

Eureka Comic-Con Panel

Did anyone watch the first episode... :p ?

[trix]

Wow, i'm amazed no ones been talking about this :o

... i'm liking the new season so far - even though it's only been 2 eps

[Eric Veteran]

I haven't been too thrilled with this season at all so far. It doesn't 'suck', but it hasn't been as good as S1&2 to me. I think maybe they're still a bit off-kilter from the writer's strike. I remember when that happened to Star Trek: Next Gen and the first half of the season afterward was awful. I suspect maybe the episodes so far are "fillers" that were already written before the strike. Still watching, though! :D

EDIT: Wow, I obviously pulled up the wrong Eureka thread! I just noticed the post ages.

[GameOverRob]

Anyone watch it the other night?

[Pretend]

Yup, it was good to see it back. But..... they got over the Carter losing his job way to quickly.

Could it be because he didn't exactly lose it?

Thanks to the town's charter, while DoD can fire him, it can't take effect unless the mayor (Henry) accepts it. In other words, because Henry didn't accept it, DoD got cross-checked. What's all the more hilarious is that it was the android Andy (originally designed/built to replace Jack) that dug up that clause, and did it for the express purpose of getting Jack his job back.

Jack Carter has been the quintessential *outsider* (as far as DoD is concerned) from day one (his) in Eureka. Unlike the rest of the town, he has no connection to the military (worse, he came from the *Justice Department*; specifically, the Marshals Service), and the very reason Morrison canned Jack was because they needed a *fall person* for the Eva Thorn mess. Even though it was Henry (with his mayoral hat on) and Allison Blake that actually smuggled Eva out of Eureka (and you had better believe Morrison suspected at least Allison in complicity; his remark to her at the end-of-last-season cliffy made that rather plain), the REAL onus was really on Morrison himself; after all he SENT Thorn to Eureka! He did NOT want his role in the mess to get out (and he's certain that Henry and Allison either know or suspect, given their positions at GD and/or Eureka's government), and he also wasn't going to fall on his own sword; hence Jack getting whacked, even though Morrison himself knew he didn't deserve it.

What I'm wondering is what's with the otherworldly presence hotfooting it toward Eureka? Is there a connection with the Artifact? (Though it's apparently quiet, it's still under lock/key/guards deep in the bowels of GD.) Is there a connection to Nathan Stark? If not, what is the future of Jack and Allison? (Jack knows he has it bad; Allison knows *she* has it bad; heck, even STARK knew they BOTH had it bad.)

Really? I thought people would generally understand what I was trying to say. I'll try again.

Yup, it was good to see it back. But..... they (the writers!) got over making him "lose" his job then getting it back way to quickly.

They made it seem that him "losing" his job would be a bit longer, 3-4 episodes at the most. Just 1 episode then finding out he didn't really lose his job was just poor :(

Get what I was trying to say now? :s

[Sigurd]

I agree McK, they could of made that whole thing pan out for a couple more episodes, I did like the episode though. So glad to have it back on again its been far to long.

[Hupp]

they really made andy a likable character and it sucks to see him leave. I would of liked him to stick around and maybe be another deputy

Because even they knew (like Morrison) that making Jack the victim for THEIR screwup woul fly like a lead airship above a hypergravity vortex.

[TonyLock]

Anyone know why it was gone for so long?

What were the producers thinking?

[HawkMan]

It wasn't, it was gone for the usual amount of time for eureka, Eureka is a show with long episodes and short seasons. and it's a summer show(the only one almost, certainly the only one worth watching) it start around this time, and ends in fall.

it's the way it's always been.
