Eureka: Final Season (Discussion, spoilers, etc.)

I guess with Fargo happy with Holly now, I guess we won't be seeing him canoodling with Claudia on any Warehouse 13 crossovers again. :D

I don't think Fargo and Claudia ever worked as a romance. It may be fun for he and Holly to have to interact with the W13 crew.
 
I love Wil Wheaton's character, but, for a moment, I was kind of hoping that Zane had killed the wrong one. It certainly would have upended expectations for that scene! :lol:
Man, the "Kill Wesley" attitude just won't die, will it? :alienblush:

Well that's a double negative, but as long as Wes is dead, it's really a double positive.


I am betting that the Wesley fantasy people saw in the finale was not the one they were hoping for! :rommie:
 
With Holly on this independent project with Fargo, I'll guess that these characters will be the two we see again popping up on Alphas and / or Warehouse 13, if, that is, any of them return to the screen at all.
 
I totally missed that opening / ending thing. I was JUST thinking about how the series was apparently ending with Jack and Zoey driving out of town alone in the rain, just as they were driving in, and BAM! I'm guessing they figured on doing this from the very beginning. Yay, more time fruit loops!

Gonna miss this show. It went out just as it went in, as lightweight sci-fi comedy fluff. It worked, and it should have gotten more time. At least they didn't do much alien stuff. :) Or fell to the X-files conspiracy paradigm.

Now, I have no excuse not to start on Fringe. :P

It's been too long since I've seen the first episode. Can someone tell me what the link is with the driving in/out? Or maybe help me find that scene from the first episode on youtube or something?
 
Here, at 3:30. http://youtu.be/Y1DUHirqDEE

Not QUITE a match for what we see in the finale (they were in the jeep, not a white car, no one was waving, and the clothes were different), but wot the heck - they're in a different timeline. :)

Well, this was really good. I couldn't have asked for much more. Everybody got their happy ending, we got resolutions of a sort for both Beverly and the timeline, we got cameos by Taggert and Doctor Old Spice and Zoe, and we got a few plot developments that carry the concept forward without screwing things up-- Holly and Fargo, Jo and Zane, the new baby, Eureka under new ownership and, best of all, Henry in charge of GD. I didn't see that one coming, but it's a great move-- he's always been the star of the show as far as I'm concerned.

I would have liked a bit more about how Henry could have been working with Beverly, but I'm not complaining-- I'm relieved and happy with what we got.

Lots of great little moments, too. Nice montage of past episodes and it was even worked into the plot. I loved Holly's description of Carter as the Strong Force. And Vincent's reaction to naked Parrish cracked me up. Beverly got to do the right thing. And Fargo's weasely secretary joined him in the sit-down strike. And the "six more days" thing was hilarious.

I wish the show could have continued a while longer, but there's no complaints about what we got. :bolian:
 
I seriously doubt we'll see anyone from Eureka or Warehouse 13 show up on Alphas again. The shows are just too tonally different. It would be like Scooby Doo and the gang showing up in The Dark Knight.
 
Really enjoyed that, I think everyone got the ending they deserved. I can't really think of any major problems with it.
 
I like how they were taking Carter's truck apart throughout the episode. It was like a symbolic parallel to the show ending, especially since the truck has been almost a symbol for the show.
 
He was demolecularized.

That's "sorta" what that wormhole did to Carter to move him from a to b?

They could have met in that wormhole and wrestled.

Almost any episode could have brought him back somehow.

Especially the Christmas episode.

i wonder how many of those they have gone though during he show because of the various mishaps etc... Quite a few, I would think and they alway get roughly the same model to replace it with.
 
I spent most of this episode thinking there was one more to come, but the in-jokes about the "6 weeks to sort it out" twigged me that this was the extra episode. I was disappointed, but it was not a bad ending, just seemed a bit low-key.
 
I took the six weeks to be that the original plan was to give Eureka a final half season but they instead just gave them one extra episode to wrap it up. Wasn't that what we heard when the cancellation was first announced?
 
Re: Carter's jeep, I was only just hoping for some sort of in-jokey reference to how many Jack has gone through over five years. It's been destroyed or otherwise rendered unusable more times than any Star Trek shuttlecraft, and yet he's always been provided with a fresh new one the following week. I wonder if anyone's actually kept track of how many have been exploded over the course of the show...
