In which surprisingly there is talk of TV based shenanigans.
EUREKA
It has come to an end. Such a great show, I can just about
remember way back to when it started, this new show announced to a fair bit of
hype. Back then it was “A Town Called Eureka” and it was notable because it got
a start on Sky here in the UK either at the same time or very close to it
premiering in the US. A big step up from having to wait a year or more to get a
show to cross the atlantic.
The show itself was something new obviously comedy but with
a lot more science fiction than was popular at the time. The show took awhile
to find its legs but all good shows do especially those with the often
expanding ensemble tasks.
The only issues I had was the huge shifts that used to
happen at the end of seasons. Like Jack being a Jack from the future and going
back to save time. There was A LOT of time travelling in Eureka which made a
complex and sometimes confusing plot even more so.
So if you were a fan
like me be thankful for a well written show and hope against hope that networks
won’t give up on creative shows and leave us swimming in a sea of scripted
reality shows.
Well I’m still watching and it is still the weirdest,
funniest supernatural show out there. All the crazy dreams and the personal
drama that manages to take place even with all the fur, claws and scales. The
thing that works so well about this show is that it is really about a couple of
losers who somehow get way above their High School social caste. One guy gets
his dream girl while the other pines for hers, the werewolf stuff is just great
extra flavour.
The only issue I really have is how ridiculously bland they
are making Derek’s pack I can’t even remember their names and furthermore I’m
too lazy to IMDB it, other than the fact that I can’t take my eyes of Gage’s
character they are not memorable in the least and lack depth. Look at the depth
of Stiles for instance that dude is DEEP, we need to see a little more about
those three hopefully with the show returning there will be a chance for that
although I kind of think one or two of them might be dead before next season.
I can’t tell you how awesome it is to know that next time
Teen Wolf is going full length season. I don’t know how things will change but
I am fairly happy with how the writers are doing things so with more time I am
fairly sure they won’t mess things up.
Have you started watching Teen Wolf yet? Definitely consider
this a time to get caught up.
So those are two shows that I thought were worth mentioning,
if you guys and girls out there in blog land have some shows you think I should
check out or talk about then leave it in the comments.
