5.0 out of 5 stars Andy of Mayberry Meets Area 51, July 7, 2009
This review is from: Eureka Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
One of the few entertaining shows on TV. Not that that's saying much; still, definitely worth a watch if you like sci-fi and humor rolled into one. The science is sometimes a little questionable, but that's okay because Eureka is really character-driven. Where else would you find the garage mechanic is an existential physicist, the town dog-catcher has hunted wild beasts from Africa to the Arctic, and the local shrink runs a bed-and-breakfast with emphasis on the "bed", if you get my drift. Add a Deputy whom, except for the by-the-book fanaticism, is very little like Barney Fife (better looking for one thing, and way more competent) and an Opie who may be autistic but can do differential calculus (on sidewalks) and you have "Eureka". One can only wonder if there's an Otis the Town Drunk lurking somewhere...and what he's imbibing. 4.5*'s at least.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great humor for geeks like me., September 16, 2011
This review is from: Eureka Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
I'm not a big fan of television and I remember a few years ago seeing a promo for this new series. However, my cable company didn't carry the Sci-Fi channel and I had forgotten all about it until it I got my subscription to NetFlix. While the show typically uses the same mechanical plot from week to week (something big is scheduled to happen but is interrupted by another experiment that only the Sheriff can figure out so in the end everything is o.k.), the mix of science, science fiction, and humor makes the show entertaining. I've found myself researching the different theories presented on the television show out of sheer curiosity and it has sparked my interest in returning to school to finish up my Master's.

Colin Ferguson, hands down, is one of the funniest men on television today. While "Dr. Fargo" lends a hand now and then, "Jack Carter" is the show's comic relief and the man that we can relate to. There has been many times I have found myself laughing out loud while watching the show and that rarely happens with any other series.

It's a shame that the series will be cancelled after season 5, especially after being revitalized with a very great season 4, but all good things will eventually come to an end. I would highly recommend this to any aspiring young scientist and/or science fiction fan looking for inspiration.
