9:57 PM 7/30/10 · Much of the television I've been enjoying of late is on the SyFy/Scifi channel. Which has led to one little non·canon surprise, a veritable inconsistancy if ever there was one, but for the most part I am soon to be in crossover bliss.
If you know anything about me at all, know this. I love crossovers with an unholy passion!
You probably know about Eureka, a little town largely under government sway where the super geniuses of the United States, and a few out of country imports, get to live at their ultimate potential...and the sheriff who has to deal with that potential when it tends, very often, to get out of hand. Then there's Warehouse 13, which is about in the middle of it's 2nd season, that wonderful place under strict government control that houses all of the truly bizarre and insane invention and objects that are possessed of an unknown energy and can cause untold havoc in the wrong hands.
Both series are a blast, great sense of humor, and very fun to watch. I've never heard anyone, outside of my family, whose for a problem with either one.
This coming week Eureka & Warehouse 13 are crossing over. A situation goes down in WH13 that requires Fargo to be brought there, big surprise to him as he thought the place was an urban legend, to help solve the problem. Apparently during that adventure he and Claudia bond, so he invites her back to Eureka to check the place out.
Warehouse 13 comes on Tuesdays. I don't know the main time, timeslot conflict with another show, but it repeats at 11pm. Eureka comes on Fridays at 9pm.
Another interesting show, in a much more mutated/mystical vein, is Haven. It's apparently based off a Stephen King novel, a short story I believe, called The Colorado Kid. I've been enjoying it since it came on, think the one I'm watching now is just the 4th episode, so I got curious. I've not actually read the novel but I read a bio of it which confused me a great deal...
...because The Colorado Kid is more of a noir piece. No mystical details, no mutations gone rampant. It's a story about a bunch of unrelated people dealing with a murder, that stretches over a decade and change's time, of an unidentified body that has been dubbed The Colorado Kid.
Then again, I saw the Sorcerer's Apprentice recently and while I did like it...it has absolutely nothing to do with the Mickey Mouse animation it's based on. Well...unless you count the scene with the cleaning products gone wild.
That, and, the bit that's at the end of the credits.
