Steve's Moratorium

With season 3.5 well on its way Eureka has once again managed to awe and inspire the viewers.

To tell you the truth this season seems to be a little funkier than usual.  With returning dead cast mates, a pregnant Allison (just when you thought she and Carter might start getting somewhere), and Fargo up to his usual antics its just a normal day here at Eureka.  Oh lest we forget the love triangle that is bound to be no good. Carter, Allison and Tess.

My opinion is that we never hear about Carters last girlfriend Callie Curie back in what season 2 later episodes. That story line just died fast quick and in a hurry. I want to know.  All joking aside I find Jack and Tess a great match and hope to see it go on further than the end of season 3 but who knows.  Also with next weeks episode Taggert coming back ‘Awesome’ lets see some more of his story line with Deputy Lupo. That is a good one.

Some questions have to be asked. Why is this season considered 3.5 not 4 it has been a year?  Why so long coming back?  Is the show in trouble? SyFy seems to be backing it well enough.  Lets see Fargo get the girl finally. Speaking of Fargo though he still hasn’t learned about pushing buttons I am glad to see they are taking their own joke as a joke with Carter questioning it.

One thing missing this season is the great word play between Carter and Stark.  This was one of the best things about the show.  No one seems to have that same relationship with Carter on the show.  Even Allison has stopped the quipping and while Tess has had a few moments it doesn’t work well when your falling for the guy.

Just another rant by your favorite time waster!

The Plot: Three twenty-somethings a werewolf George, a vampire Mitchell and a ghost Annie.  They struggle to live normal lives, despite their strange and dark secrets. Think Friends (more like Coupling really) mixed with She Wolf of London and Forever Knight.  Except he seems to be able to go out in the sun.

George and Mitchell work as orderlies in a hospital in England. They try to live a normal life in hopes no one will notice their dark secrets. They move into a house, only to find that Annie, killed in mysterious circumstances, haunts it.

But with unwelcome intruders into their world, a threatened revolution from the vampire underworld, constant threats of exposure, and the day-to-day issues faced by young people – the only thing they may be able to rely on is each other.

Warning May Contain Spoilers

So Far:  We have three episodes under our belt in the States and so far so good.  Mitchell has eaten a couple friends.  George has destroyed the apartment during his time of the month. Also, his creator has found him only to be a real shit.  Annie on the other hand was predictably killed by her fiancee, though she didn’t remember this at first.  This is a comedy, drama, horror type show though the last has yet to be really shown.  Unless you consider the blood.

It is rather funny and there is a lot to learn about these three characters especially Mitchell.  Being he has been a vampire for many years already.  One must ask why give it all up.  Though our werewolf friend seems to be shy and nervous there is that beast inside him that could change everything.  Why does Annie still stick around especially after seeing her new ghost mate check out. How is it that her mascara always seems to run? Why doesn’t anyone see her carry things on the street? Just have to wait till the next episode.

Overall I am liking this show and invite others to check it out as well.  It is good for a laugh and it will overall keep you guessing.

New episodes air Saturdays @  9PM on BBC America check your local listings.

[Spoiler] First let me say WOW it is now at the turn the background is over and we finally get into the real meat of the story.  In my opinion they could have fed us the first five episodes as flashbacks throughout the first season. Don’t get me wrong I enjoyed them but having seen six and seven and it is going to be a totally different show.  The first five could have worked better in a full series but I don’t know maybe it is me. You can watch these episodes here on Hulu.  The new episode isn’t there yet but should be up in the next day or so.

I am excited to see that we are at the boiling point and next week the shit is gonna hit the fan next week as you will see with next weeks trailer. (BELOW)  Also I definitly have to say I knew that the neighbor was a doll. Totally called that.  I am good.  I also have to say that I think the little lab assistant is my choice for helping the Agent Paul Ballard with clues.

Well that is my opinion take it for what it is worth and please feel free to check it out and comment below.
