DVRed that today so I won't miss.
Killed in another reality.
By any chance, the writer isn't Geoff Johns is it?
heh nah...the Murder show - Mni-Series - called Harper's Island - quite an interesting show if I might add. He was killed by someone and put in the incinerator burned to death.

Yes yes yes yes yes..to quote Eddie Murphy. Man I have missed this show. Smart, quirky, funny, intelligent. I even liked the resolution of the sheriff angle being done in a sort of walk off homer solution.
I think sheriff andy could make a return as a guest star some, but I would rather see Matt Frewer's character back.
Gravitometric baby cribs and birthing chambers...funny stuff. As for Lexi, like the actress, not so much the character. Squishy sheriffs with self interest programing that reminds me of responsometers.
I love this show. Favorite scifi show of all time right here, folks.

Just watched "your face or mine". It was okay. Its like it was a place holder one off episode. The pregnant sister wasn't there, but we get a possible new love interest character for Fargo.
Jo...really looks great in a slinky dress. Especially with those tanned legs, lol.
Carters little test..I think it mirrors a lot in life. You have a series of challenges. The first one is the hardest, but once you solve it, it seems to open the doors up in your head to figuring out things, and makes the others easier.
Still waiting for Matt Frewer to show back up. Things always get funnier and crazier when hes around. The Zane character...startin to look a little chubby in the face, lol. Guess being a regular on a show is paying him too well, he's eatin' to good.

"Insane in the P-Brane", the third episode of season 3.5 (why not just call it 4?) finally got to the meat of the half season season.
Spoilerssssssssss
So, basically, there's this signal, and it's coming from out there...somewhere. And whatever is generating the signal...is coming as well.
This episode served to introduce us to the new angle of the shows love triangle. We have Jack, Allison, and very pretty but bad hair lady. Dont remember her name. She's cute, pretty, talks a lot as Jack mentions, is an old friend of Allison's, is attracted to Jack....Oh, and she's on loan from CETI, has reopened Section 5 (Jack HATES that section) and is going to be in charger, the lead person on that pesky signal I mentioned above.
Also, she's smart, as we mentioned in a roundabout way, and has goofy sense of humor.
At the same time, familiar ground is being covered, but in a new iteration. Allison seems to be headed down the bleak and Stark trail (yes, pun intended and relevant). She's having to keep secrets from Jack...AGAIN. Henry, our very favorite, is on the case...AGAIN.
We meet the dad of Lexi's twins, a guy that seems to be perfect...until he isn't. (And guys will dislike him because the character plays all the sensitive hollywood new-age guy notes, in other words...a doucebag. He reveals his supposedly true colors (remember, this is Eureka, there's almost always more than one angle to the story) with Lexi's big reveal.
Zane wasn't in the episode. Unfortunately, neither was Matt Frewer's character. Jo, after having her spotlight ep last ep, basically stood around ducking flying hydrants, dogs, and cars.
But, it feels like the show is finding its groove again after an interminable break.
And even pregnant, Allison is still freakin' hot. What do they have to do to ugly this woman up, hit her with a car?
Anyway, good episode and I can't wait for the next.

Alright. Less than a month now til the new season of Eureka comes out.
There's been a lot of cast changes over the last few seasons, but I'm hoping it will settle down a bit and we will get some really great stories out of the new season.

wow Eureka s becoming more and more gritty and interesting....
truly poignant with the deputy Andy - he s in love with SARAH. they are my favorite "characters" for some odd reason.
Poor Fargo, I think he's bitten more than he's chewing...(is that how you guys say it? I am not well familiar with the idioms - may be wrong)....
and am loving Warehouse 13 and am getting warmed up on Alphas. (bonus: the new guy who can tell who s lying or not- he came out to Claudia saying "I am GAY!" heh)

There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

Jo is still my favorite character, and, freakishly, I don't hate Zane this season. The change in his relationship with Jo, because of the timeline-change, actually has me interested in their relationship, instead of loathing him.
Jack's having trouble staying professional around Alison 'on the job,' and it's irking her. That's a nice bit of tension to keep them from falling into a stale 'couple' routine.
Fargo was uncharacteristically competent in the rocket-ship excusion (and Zane uncharacteristically panicky, IMO). 'Fargo' and 'competent' are two tastes that I'm not sure were ever meant to go together in the same sammich, but I'm digging it so far. He can't be the buttmonkey forever. (And Larry can now take on that role, if they need a buttmonkey.)
I laughed at the goofy smile of enthusiasm on Deputy Andy's face when Sarah suggested that they could still be 'friends with benefits.'
So, so, terribly wrong.

Okay, the new half season is interesting, yes. But there seems to have been a mass exodus of the older characters with less than so great newer characters.
Part of what made Jack work was having the responsibility of not only being sheriff in the one town in the world where the ridiculus, the impossibly improbable and the catastrophically crazy all must happen at regular intervals for the town to have any meaning at all, and being a dad to Zoe.
Nathan worked because there was real friction between the characters.
Matt Frewer worked because while he was a bit strange and out there, his character had a bit of charm that made it incomprehensibly work.
Still, its not bad, not at all, I'll take it over nearly 95% of the mainstream crap.
but it seems like the heartbeat has slowed a bit.

I'm finally caught up (almost) to the current episode. Netflix finally made the first half of season 4 available. I watched both discs last night. Then watched all the available episodes of season 4.5 on Hulu. The tone of the show has certainly changed, but I do like how they've kept the relationships dynamic over the lifetime of the show. I do miss Nathan, but the arc they've created for Jo this season has been great.
