The Park

Eureka comes to a close. It was enjoyable but unsatisfying. Just like the rest of the season two. Bah. Let me collect my thoughts before I enumerate what went wrong.

What’s going on with Eureka? It is still a fun show. However, the latest developments seem to focus mostly on romantic entanglements. The big Kevin and Henry subplots are almost an afterthought.

I am favorable to romance as the next person but I watch Eureka for the sci-fi and the quirky characters. I want to see dark Henry. I want to see what Stark’s ‘real’ motivation behind helping Kevin. I want to see how Jack reacts to the betrayals (from Henry and from Allison). I want to see the mythos behind The Artifact. Please, let the romance and chemistry build up naturally. I don’t want a force pairing (see Carter and new gal, Jo and Zane, Allison and Stark), damnit!

So far, the main pairings are making me bleh. I liked the first season’s romance better.

Another reason why I should’ve gone to SDCC: A Eureka panel.

Colin Ferguson is HOTT!
