Eureka : Episode Discussion /Speculation

[KatG]

...What's ECW?

Extreme Championship Wrestling

Something that should never, ever in a million years have found it's way onto SciFi.

Thanks.

Wrestling on SciFi?!

[Col. Newman]

The Scifi channel is slowly going to degrade into a channel that only has sci-fi on occasionally you just wait, in 10 years it won't even be the scifi channel anymore.

[firefly827347]

They keep showing Jurassic Park on the SciFi channel in the UK. I mean, sure, JP has some sci-fi elements, such as the genetic modification of dinosaur DNA etc. But no way is it necessary to repeat that film (several times because there's SciFi+1 too) every two months. It's overkill.

[Col. Newman]

since when do you have the SciFi channel in the UK?

[firefly827347]

We have a UK version on satellite tv. As far as I know, it's been on there a while.

www.scifi.co.uk

It shows stuff like Dark Angel, Medium, Heroes, Farscape... that sort of thing. I don't have a tv at uni so I can't really remember.

[Col. Newman]

ooo ok so it's not the US's version of Scifi. it's weird thought that it wouldn't have the broadcast rights for SG in the UK.

[firefly827347]

Nah, SkyOne broadcasts SGA and SG-1 in the UK. Among other things like Bones and I think Star Trek Enterprise.

Both SciFi channels are run by the same company but they don't show the same stuff.

yeah, I just would just think that since they are both owned by the same company they would show the same stuff. but I don't live over there so I don't care if your happy with sky it's all good.

[firefly827347]

Yeah, Sky's awesome. To stay on topic () I think Eureka is shown on Sky too. Only in the UK it's called "A Town Called Eureka".

[Col. Newman]

yeah I read that on wiki

[Rosehawk]

Anybody seen David on Eureka?

Very cool.

The more I see of his work, the more I like what I see.

Yep!

David is very talented and alot of fun to watch. I thought he was great in Eureka. Hopefully, maybe we will get to see his character again next season!

I've little hope of the channel, the people who run it are idiots

Still I think Eureka is a great show and it will still find a home no matter what happens with skiffy

LOVE this show, have been trying to catch up since it seems that I missed most of season one and a lot of season two... somehow...

And yes, SciFi is run by idiots. I've known that since 2001. And we don't need to wait 10 yrs, it's already more of the B-Movie/Horror channel as it is. I mean, really- ECW? The heck?

My one main complaint about the show is this- Eureka is top secret. Remember how Allison brought Jack in, through that illusion over the bridge?

HOW THE HECK DID ABBY JUST SHOW UP ONE DAY?

Other than that, I thought Olivia D'Abo did wonderfully and I liked the rest of the episode.

Okay, I'm done with my rant.
