    Love it! I can't wait until the next season. After dumping Farscape, SciFi has redeemed itself by giving me Eureka.

    A very welcome change in a world of depressive shows.

    I love this show for its originality, for its wit, and for its highbrow humor. The one-liners are just to die for - I look forward to them every week! Great writing as well as excellent exposure to real scientific concepts are why I tune in. Phenomenal show!

    Don't listen to the critcs. This show has become one of my favorite shows of all time. There is just something about it that keeps me drawn into it. And its a major plus that the main character is very likable and draws a contrast between the town and himself.

    I love this show. My Wife loves this show. She got me started on this sci-fi stuff with SG-1. Eureka is funny, laid back and for an hour per week of my life I can get lost in it and not worry about anything but when the next episode will appear. Did I say, "I love this show," already?

    This show has me watching SciFi channel for the very first time ever! Eureka has earned a TiVo season pass in our family. Hooray for some great summer TV entertainment.

    This is undoubtedly the best show my husband and I have seen in quite a while. TIVO has it programmed for sure. We wouldn't miss an episode for anything.

    This show is about as run-of-the-mill as your average foreign planet sighting. It keeps you wondering what wacky thing will happen next.

    Sci fi adventure without violence and sex! Love the wit, reminds me of being in Britain. Just plain fun and not for those critics looking for T & A!

    Fun, interesting, and quirky. One of my favorite shows on TV right now. One of Sci Fi channels only successes. More like this, SciFi Channel!

    What really drives this show is the wonderful characters they have put in it. They each have strengths and weaknesses and they play off each other really well. There are tons of really witty comments from almost every character and it never gets old, especially Jack Carter, the Sheriff. He has so many awesome jokes or comments that it always keeps me laughing. Some people think the What really drives this show is the wonderful characters they have put in it.

It's about the fun adventures in each episode as well as the drama that can run through 1 episode or an entire season. I hope this show is around for a long time as it's the most refreshing thing i've seen on television in a long time. It's just a really really fun show.… Expand

    With its population of must-love oddballs, the series drowns its cool sci-fi concept in a flood of "Northern Exposure" quaintness.

    Even though broader does mean more conventional, conventional these days is underrated.

    "Eureka" is clever paranormal escapism that sometimes teeters on the edge of whimsical excess. But that doesn't mean you won't find plenty of affable, oddball entertainment.
