Eureka!Rating: 7 likes, 1 dislikes There is always something futuristic and sci-fi going on, cool gadgets, lot's of humor and inside jokes. Each season has a great plot, which is mystic and interesting, and you don't always know who the "bad guys" are, and who's the "good guys". for example, one thing that happened in the pilot episode of Eureka wasn't explained until the season finale of season 2. and the very first thing that happened in season 1, the pilot episode, has yet to be explained. it's so mystical and interesting, and even though it has some so-called "filler" episodes (episodes that won't affect the plot), it still is funny, spectacular and interesting. it has a variety of cast, with a lot of unkown actors. which is a good thing, because it makes the show a bit more original (if you haven't seen the characters before, you cannot compare them to earlier work etc. ).

5x2: The Real Thing recap: The episode begins with all the guys from Eureka unconscious, with sensors hooked on to their heads, with a woman and a man informing some people on screen that the scientists from Eureka are hooked on to an artificial work, but what they are creating that artificial world is very real. The scientists have it made progress in various fields of science in the last month, since they have been hooked up. A man on the screen asks how long they can be kept in this state, and is informed by the neural scientist that they can be kept in a suspended state indefinitely, as the simulation in their brains would keep creating new images and situations. They also reveal that it is impossible to create this artificial world perfectly, and hence it’s been set in the future, but should anyone of the Eureka guys question the construct they are in, they would be retired... read more.
