"Welcome Back, Carter!"

So what did you all think? Meaning Eureka fans, if you don't like it no need to throw that in our faces. :)

It is season 3.5 btw, not season four. Apparently they'd have to give everyone a raise if they wanted to call it season four. Also they really only did eight or so episodes for the first part. And seriously, didn't BSG take a mid-season hiatus or two that was this long or longer?

Andy? At first I was all WTF? Then he began to grow on me... lol. Go figure.

Eureka+Warehouse13=New shows this summer I will actually watch! YAY!

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

I liked it, as I have most all of the series. Some of their science is a bit wonky, but it's all in good fun. Andy grew on me too, and I hope that is not the last we will see of him. He could make a good deputy, as long as someone other than Fargo is in charge of his maintenance.

But think of all the plot lines that could come from Fargo doing Andy's maintenance...

Last night's show was a good continuation of the season.

Don't get me wrong, I love Jo, but I almost expected her to not take her position of Deputy back and instead move onto better things(still remaining on the show). They've been dancing around her deserving a promotion but not getting it for some time.

I seriously doubt this is the last we see of Andy. Maybe he'll have a bigger role in season 4 if he gets enough praise in his season 3 appearances. Lets hope.

Not that I'd like to push anyone out of the spotlight to make room...

Select to view spoiler:

...we'll see about that once they introduce the new regular Dr. Tess Fontana played by Jamie Ray Newman from SGA(Lt. Laura Cadman), Veronica Mars, General Hospital... Hope she's up to par with the rest of the characters.

Also... don't look if you haven't seen last nights episode.

What about the ending? Seriously I doubt we'll see aliens on Eureka, not like little green men or earth-comparable life forms. Maybe the artifact? Or something related to it? What could it be out there that's headed straight towards Eureka? I'm actually a little excited and I hope this new central storyline is better than the last.

America loves a winner!

I missed much of the premier, so I'm kinda not up to speed yet. Good to see Eureka back, though.

The T.Rex they call JANE!

They've already done some time travel stuff. I hope the hints they are dropping don't lead to time travel plot lines. I consider time travel story lines to generally be a cop out because the writers have run out of ideas.

The writers on Eureka do time travel better than most though. 'I do over' might have borrowed it's basic premise from 'Groundhog Day'(which probably borrowed from something else and so on) but it was one of my favorite time travel episodes of all time. Atleast they even try to attempt to explain the complex theories about multiple worlds, timelines and the effects of causality on aspects that aren't immediately evident(Things happening in subtly different ways seemingly caused by something relatively unrelated) Instead of just presenting a basic concept and then throwing in a bunch of inane technobabble(which they do anyway lol).

Anyway, I enjoy Eureka time travel episodes but I agree they will be treading on overuse if they do any more for awhile.

Seriously though..

ALIENS? Returning probes(ala ST:TMP)? The artifact?
