For the 3 or 4 other people familiar with this show......
I'm a few seasons into this 20 year old Sy-Fy series that seems to be making up every episode as it goes. I like shows that are about secluded mountain towns with self-contained storylines. Northern Exposure, Resident Alien, etc.
In Eureka, there may be an alien invasion, or ghosts, or time travelers, or the threat of nuclear war, and it is always the responsibility of the sherriff and his hot deputy to solve the problem. Every now and then a high ranking general/government official makes an appearance via video to threaten some government intervention.
Its a fun, light, sci-fi comedy / drama that throws all reality and continuity out the window. A major character who is portrayed as an antagonist because he wears black and is always accompanied by ominous music steps into a portal, and he's gone, brother! Oh, and he was actually a hero. Need a new female lead? Here comes the sherrif's pregnant sister for a while. Don't like a child character? Don't worry, he's there in season 2, gone in season 3.
A scientist tries to destroy the sherriff's life over a few episodes, even erasing his memory of a separate timeline. He goes to prison for a while, comes back, and he and the sherriff are now partners and bffs. What??
You just can't make this stuff up!
Once you get used to that, its a fun show.
