    I'm really going to miss Eureka. Colin Ferguson really brought a passion to the role of Jack Carter, and there is great chemistry among the cast. They really feel like a small-town family.

    Once Warehouse 13 signs off (hopefully in the far distant future), I'll likely be done with SyFy.

    Tonight, Episode 5:02

    The Real Thing. "Just because it's not real, doesn't mean it's not dangerous."

    What will we learn about about Beverly's evil plot against the crew of Astraeus?

    Stay tuned!

    I hope the virtual reality thing doesn't last too long; we don't have that many episodes left.

    I agree. This is the final season, so I'd rather spend as much time in the real Eureka as possible, not an illusion created by the bad guys.

    I thought that was really good.

    They explained a lot, which made the story more convincing (like why they fast-forwarded 4 years in the VR environment).

    And then we got the big reveal....damn that She-Devil!

    They are figuring it out pretty fast. It will be interesting to see how they resolve the whole thing.

    Damn, that was a harsh ending on this last episode.

    Are they going to find some sci-fi way to save her?

    I doubt it. There's a reason they picked someone not listed in the main cast.

    I, too, hope this VR thing doesn't last all season.

    Well it is the final season so some people could die.

    Damn, that was horrible. Poor Holly. :( That senator is a stone cold killer-- they could have unplugged her from the simulation without killing her, or put her VR character into a coma or something.

    Judging from next week's previews, the VR thing will be coming to an end soon-- looks like they'll be sending Carter inside.

    Missed last week's premiere but caught the last half last night before the newest ep. I HOWLED :scream: when it looked like they had rebooted yet again (can't the Sheriff and Alison catch a break???) and then HOWLED when I realized they were in a virtual reality! :eek:

    LOVED the previews for next week and Jack's response when he's told who his virtual reality version is "involved with". :rommie:

    Noticed a mistake on rewatching. When Jack, Kevin and Jenna are eating lunch and Andy comes to give them the news, Jenna appears to be the older version from the VR. It's a little hard to make out, as she only appears in one shot, but that ain't a two-year-old sitting there. Mrs. Silvercrest pointed that out.

    I really enjoyed this episode. I was already growing suspicious of the Senator, but I did not expect them to kill Holly. I liked her, so I am sad to to see her go. Can't wait for next week's episode.

    So the "Kill Wesley Crusher" crowd may finally get their wish...

    ^^ Heh.

    You know, I thought that. They showed her just at the beginning of the conversation, but never again. I meant to rewind to check, but I forgot.

    Too bad this show is ending... it is always reliably entertaining, albeit not a classic.

    Come to think of it, he does seem adept at playing arrogant roles not just in Eureka, but also in Big Bang Theory and The Guild.

    I like his role on Eureka. He and Fargo are like Farnsworth and Wernstrom when they were young.

    :lol:

    And I really liked him on Big Bang Theory. He's the perfect person to torment Sheldon.

    That other show I've never heard of.

    It's a webseries starring Felicia Day.
