This better be a good Eureka Season, after all, guys!
It's been a while since I did any ramblings reviews on TV series eps but I just finished watching the Eureka Season Four Premiere and I just have to share a few things about it. And because of the spoilers, under cut of course.
Yes, I mean it. There are massive spoilers in here. If you don't want to be spoiled... don't read on. Seriously.
Okay, since you're obviously still reading... HOW COULD THEY DO THAT? How could they take Zane/Jo from us when Zane asked her to marry him and she never got to say yes before they got sent to the past and how could they start the §&$/§&§&$ing Jack/Allison business again and I just bet they're gonna do terrible things to Tess and Tess/Carter (like someone said on eureka_tv Tess did sound drunk and I really don't like the idea of that) and I think they're gonna ruin it AND I HATE THAT THOUGHT!
Dear Eureka writers, please don't ruin Tess as a character and if you are going to break up Tess/Carter once and for all do it gently and do not, I repeat, do not make Jack/Allison established canon. Please, please, please don't. Keep them as friends, don't make them a couple, I beg you. Make Allison and Grant a couple if you have to put Allison in a relationship (which really isn't necessary because she really rocks as a working single mom of two and you don't get to see that much on TV) because yes, they would work.
Unlike Carter and Allison because... no! There's no chemistry, seriously, and I hate the way Allison becomes when you're trying to give her romantic scenes with Carter. She's a great character, seriously, but putting her with Carter would ruin her, I'm sure of that. I can't really describe why and how but Jack/Allison squicks me out massively. So, please, don't go down that road. Please.
Otherwise... nice ep with a few funny scenes, at least two very heartbreaking ones (first Jo breaks Zane's heart and then he breaks hers and I really fear for the future of Zane/Jo :() and one really squicky one (the Jack/Allison kiss "just for luck"... I wanted to throw something at the screen for that :P). James Callis as Dr. Trevor Grant is introduced and I expect great things from him. Didn't like him as Baltar in BSG but that was because I didn't like Baltar. I do think, however, Dr. Grant could be a great addition to the cast.
Also, Henry is married suddenly and I'm interested to see how that will play out because as of now I really like Grace. I wonder what they've got in store for those two and what rollercoaster they'll put us through with them (because with those writers... there will be a rollercoaster).
Jeez, I really hope the Eureka writers know what they're doing (unlike the Stargate writers of other shows that shall not be named) and I really, really hope they won't ruin Tess because Tess is awesome (and I'm not saying that only because I like Jaime Ray Newman, seriously!) and I hate it when writers ruin awesome characters, even more so when they're awesome female characters.
Okay and now I'll... go and do my chores and try to ignore the insane heat and try not to think about the results of the Fanfiction General Award that will be out in roughly four hours because my stories won't have won (do they even say that? Won't have won?) anything at all anyway. Yeah.
