First Eureka post!

I have a problem with this show. A bipolar problem and I did not come here to be made fun of so shop somewhere else if that's your agenda. This guy taggart I know there is a following that loves him but fuck that idk he gives me the creeps! Am I alone here? He looks like back to the future got ass fucked by his hillbilly gay cousin with a face of confusion wondering if it was Kentucky cousin or Tennessee stepbrother? If you can't tread lightly don't tread.

Joe Morton appreciation post

I freaking love Henry Deacon. He's flawed, like all the characters on the show, but he's really the glue that holds everything together and I love how the series ends for him. He's utterly brilliant, will officiate weddings, funerals, graduations, and will even tow and fix your car. I can't imagine a character like him working if it weren't for Joe Morton's brilliant acting.

Also, I'm obsessively rewatching the show right now because it's an escape from the hellscape that is the current state of the U.S. I wish I could move to Eureka!

Just finished the series, now what?

I just finished the series. I had seen some of it when it first aired but never any of the last season. I'm so sad it's over.
Can anyone recommend another show that is just as good? (Already watched Warehouse 13) TIA

Edit: thanks for all the great suggestions!

Callie Curie

I just finished season 4. Do they ever explain what happened to Callie? One minute she and Jack were planning a weekend getaway and the next episode she’s nowhere to be seen. Is this ever addressed?

Doppelgängers

I’m still watching the series for the first time. In the pilot Zoey sees herself and Carter in a passing car just before they crash. Is this ever addressed again? I thought that was so creepy.

ISO coffee shop!

Any good coffee shops in Eureka I should know about? Just moved here last week and there are plenty but of the two I’ve tried, they’ve made it very bitter to the point it almost tastes like an IPA lol

Tess and Jack

I’m currently watching for the first time. At the end of season 3 Tess gives Jack the news that she’s leaving and he’s sad. Then at the beginning of season 4 there’s a recap of last season. Jack is holding hands with a hologram of Tess and then she says she can’t do long-distance anymore and vanishes. That never happened! Did they cut scenes on Prime Video?

0° kelvin

I thought Vince was supposed to be smart. 0° Kelvin is -459.67°f LoL

!The actual reason is that it was filmed in Canada and 0° Kelvin is -273°c which means whoever made the graphic wasn't paying attention.!<

Sheriff Carter seems to have some resentment towards Eureka for the entire first season

Until about the 10th or eleventh episode. He just has trouble fitting in to the town with its inhabitants.

has anyone else noticed this?

Question especially in the early seasons does Fargo have nice guy syndrome?

I was watching the show again and something occurred to me, especially in the early seasons does Fargo have nice guy syndrome, I am genuinely curious as to others opinions on this, so please let me know, thank you.

Watching it now but something is bothering me

The first season is fantastic where the theme seems to be "Jack is the sheriff of this quirky town where even your average joe is a brilliant genius." Later on though it seems to shift to "Jack has to team up with some character to stop GD from doing something horrible again."

I don't know if they could have kept up the theme of the first season but still. So many of the recurring characters just vanish in this show.

Wish Tess stuck around

Showing Eureka to my GF for the first time and I forgot how much more I preferred Tess as Jack’s love interest than Allison. Wish she stuck around longer.

Side note: I realized my GF kind of looks like Tess, which makes sense as I had an enormous crush on the character when I first watched the show back in high school 😂

I've never spent so many seasons of a show thinking about one specific plotline

After the season 1 finale + season 2 opener, I don't think there was a single episode of seasons 2-5 in which I wasn't thinking about the original timeline in the back of my mind.

I really tried to tell myself to let it go after a while, but I just couldn't control my hyperfocusing on every single opportunity to weave it in.

It feels like a complete paradox, because I absolutely loved and devoured this show, but WOW I was annoyed at own brain by the end.

I'm the kind of person who rewinds 10 minutes if I find myself not understanding something, or if I want to confirm what I think could be foreshadowing. I watch shows with captions just so I don't miss an important word (and will skip back 15 seconds if I do). I will rewatch an episode before going onto the next one, if it's not completely fresh in my mind. Maybe if I was the type of tv-watcher who can casually jump into a show and be satisfied just using context clues to understanding something I missed... maybe then this wouldn't have glued itself to be brain for the entirety of the show.

Amazing show. I wouldn't change anything.... okay except maybe adding just like ONE OR TWO more easter eggs throwing back to the original timeline. Just a little teensy something more here and there might have scratched that itch a bit better.

Other timeline

Is it just me or did you really want to see the other timeline play out but in a different way. Like I was so ready to see similar events happen but with its own twist. In one episode Carter gets flashbacks of Henry erasing his memory when he is holding the book he borrows from him. But then it is never mentioned again. Carter doesn’t investigate it or anything. It made me so sad when Allison and Carter had to give up their life and the new baby to go back to the other timeline. Then Henry was supposed to be going back to work at GD to work on Kim’s projects and try to find a way to make another timeline to get Kim back. But that whole storyline was just abandoned. They don’t even mention Kim anymore. But I really wanted Carter to find a way to get his memory back and I was so irritated when Nathan and Allison got back together. It just didn’t seem right after they had so much bad history. And can we talk about how beverly never got caught for murdering that woman!!

Is the rift between Henry and Carter ever resolved?

Hey, first time watching the show and sometimes I'm only watching with one eye, so I'm not sure if I missed something.

At the end of S1, going into S2, Henry and Carter are the only two people who can remember living in an alternate timeline. Until Henry wipes Carter's memory at the end of S2E1, making Henry the only person to remember it.

Henry resenting Carter for stopping him from saving Kim is a recurring theme throughout S2... until it isn't? I'm now half-way through S3 and I'm wondering if they ever formally reconciled? Or is Henry still holding a grudge and Carter doesn't even know?

Meaning of "sanctioned"...?

So in season 4 the cast that got transported back to 1940's state, when they get back, that they can't tell anybody what happened because there's government protocols they must implement should something happen of this nature... Allison specifies they would get "sanctioned" were they to break the protocols...

What did that mean? The way they reacted and something even Fargo said seemed like sanctioned implied death. 🤷🏼‍♀️

What did you guys think when you watched it ?

Opinions on Allison?

I’ve been rewatching the show recently and am at the start of season five, I honestly can’t stand Allison. From wanting her autistic son to be “fixed”, to her constant jealousy at the start of season five, to her purposefully sabotaging Jo and Carters friendship… I just don’t like her. I don’t remember feeling this way when I watched the show the first time. Anyone else feel similar about her? If she’s a character you really like, why?

ETA: I know Kevin technically “cured” himself, but this was a choice written by neurotypical writers, not an actual autistic person choosing to “cure” themselves. It’s still a fucked up plotline regardless of if the character chose it or not 🤷🏻‍♂️. I understand it was a different time and autism was viewed very differently, but that still doesn’t make it okay and I personally think it’s important to question/recognize the problematic writing in our favorite older shows.

Amazon Purchase of the show disappearing?

So, I bought the whole show on Amazon Prime in like 2018 or 2017, and watched it a few times. I went to watch it again yesterday, and saw that its available to watch free with Prime, but they have adds. I figured, since I bought it, I could skip the adds, but I couldn't find it in my library. So I decided to look on Amazon in my digital purchases, and its missing there too.

Did anyone else buy Eureka on Amazon Prime prior to 2019, and can confirm they can watch it add free? I'm afraid Prime stole it from us some how..
