Re: Eureka!

I'd been looking out for this to start along with bones and cold case, I haven't even seen any adverts for it and could nearly swear it wasn't listed for tonight last week and so would have missed it.

so recordings all set now, cheers

yeah, I only saw one single advert for it and that was only because I recorded something quite random (forget what it was now)....lucky me!

Damn good show, on form as usual, I know quite a few people think its a bit cheesy or low brow, but I think its nice to have a lighthearted comedic drama thats more on the lines of a B Movie than Bones/24/etc Blockbuster level. You dont get offended if something looks/sounds a bit odd because you are not expecting it to be top notch in all aspects. Its kind of like Firefly in that respect I think.

Re: Eureka!

The US Syfy channel split the season in two parts and now it seems they delayed the second half to help promote the rebranding and I suspect to save money by promoting it as season4. Obviously SKY don't have or chose not to have the rights to preempt a US screening (don't think Eureka is distributed by MGM) so they have to wait on the US.

Re: Eureka!

They started Season 3.5 in the US on Friday just gone. So if you want to stay at US pace you should be able to get it from the usual nautical sources. I wonder Sky are going to start showing it the second half of the season?

Re: Eureka!

The Sky mag is the most unreliable Sky publication but it says that its returning on Tuesday 21st at 8pm, and the sky programme index has an entry for season 3 for that date;-

The wonderfully weird drama returns. A reluctant Carter prepares to leave Eureka, making the way for Sheriff Andy, a humanoid simulation
