Nathan Stark’s Future In Eureka

NOTE THE SPOILERS ‘CATEGORY’. It really does mean there are spoilers here. ;-)

So I completely freaked. I know–I run Eurekafan.com so I should keep up with the spoilers. But I don’t. I enjoy the excitement of not knowing what’s going to happen and if I did know, then I’m not sure I’d be such a fanatic for the show.

After watching I Do Over, I went on a spoiler hunt, but I didn’t really find anything about the “death” of Nathan Stark and whether or not it is permanent. However I did find this interview, which I’ll post the relevant bits of here and let you assume what you will. With, of course, a few choice comments from me.

The entirety of this interview with Ed Quinn (Nathan Stark of Eureka) can be found at this site: MediaBlvd Magazine

When asked if he saw himself as part of Eureka for the long haul….

Of course you say, “Yeah, I’d like to be a part of it from beginning to end.” But shows change, shows evolve. And sometimes characters don’t evolve with them. So you just go in every day and every season and just try to do your best work and see where it goes. The show is kind of organic and depending on where it goes and some characters can evolve with the show and some can’t. I think you’ll see this season that there will definitely be some losses of some supporting characters, and an introduction to a bunch of new ones.

A bad sign for the reappearance of Stark, in my opinion!

When asked if he had spoilers to share….

“I think the only ones that I’m allowed to talk about…”

Definitely a hint that Ed Quinn knows something he can’t discuss.

But there is a big, big reveal this season that I think will make the first eight episodes kind of memorable, then really send the show off into a different direction.

I have hope. Stark appears to die (or fade away as he is pulled backwards in time — my own personal theory for what happened to him until someone offers a better theory to me) in I Do Over. However, I Do Over is episode number 4.

Does this mean that Nathan Stark isn’t gone for good? Why would he know about the rest of the episodes and where the direction of the show is moving if he doesn’t have a part in it? Am I reaching? I really don’t know that much about how the world goes round in the tv business…

When asked about the dynamic between Nathan Stark and Jack Carter and if it would continue into season three….

Absolutely…. The creators thought that one of the funner relationships was the Carter/Stark relationship….because a lot of the story lines got resolved, the conflict got resolved. In season one, Carter and Stark were diametrically opposed. Carter and Stark just happened to have the competition of the love for the same lady. In season 2, Stark…didn’t have a dark agenda anymore…. So all of a sudden Carter and Stark had the same objective…. In the beginning of this season there is some more of that.

In the beginning says it all.

I think that wraps it up nicely. Decide what you will, but my opinion? Stark is gone.

And I am sad.

Noche de Suenos Redux

Chatting about the season two episode Noche de Suenos.

Eureka premiere on Scifi Channel – Commerical Break #6

Incompetence has never been so fun! The final break is really the end, but how could I not say a few final things about the show?

Firstly. OMG. “That’s a yes.”

I’m not going to say anything else because that says a lot. Allison and Stark back together again? I actually find it romantic, even if it does kind of put a crimp in the budding romance between Jack and Allison from season one which nearly died out in season two. And it definitely shows that things have gone in a totally different direction than how they went in “Once in a Lifetime”–the season ender from season one.

Overall, I enjoyed the episode and look forward to more.

Eureka premiere on Scifi Channel – Commercial Break #5

Have I said before that the Scifi Channel has way too many commercials?

That said, I have to revisit my opinion of Eva Thorne. Devious might not be the word, but she has certainly gotten on my bad side by going against Jack (Carter) and even Stark and Allison. She has authority and she’s going to use it? Well, fine and dandy for her.

Not trusting those who’ve been there and are in the know will come back to bite her (one hopes).

Eureka premiere on Scifi Channel – Commercial Break #4

No more getting sidetracked! Eva Thorne is looking like a smart lady, but she’s really not been put to the test yet. Larry, on the other hand, is looking as devious as ever! I remember when he took over Fargo’s job. That showed his colors, and this new bit of sneaky suckuping fits him very nicely.

Totally looking forward to seeing more of Larry in future episodes. Now I only hope they keep using him! And yes, for the spoiler happy, showless people out there, Larry made it.

Do I have a page for Larry on the site? I’m going to have to take care of that if I don’t. He deserves it. Wow, back on! See ya.

Eureka premiere on Scifi Channel – Commercial Break #3

Oh, man. Larry might be a jerk, but I certainly liked him. That look on Carter’s face has me wondering if Larry has made his last smarty-pants remark to Fargo.

If you’re wondering, these “commercial break” posts are real time posts during the commercial breaks of Eureka’s season three premiere.

What a call out to Battlestar Galactica when Zoe called Martha “that cylon shuttle thing”.

As I was saying previously, Eva Thorne seems deviously… oops, back to watching!

Eureka premiere on Scifi Channel – Commercial Break #2

Commercial break two brings with it fond memories of the walk-in refrigerator. How wild was that?! Not that that was the most memorable moment of the show so far. I’ve really enjoyed the repartee between Jack and Jo–not Jill, thank you very much.

“We rule.”

“We so don’t rule.”

THAT was my favorite moment of the show–so far. :-)

Eva Thorne’s presence seems … ah, back to the show!

Eureka premiere on Scifi Channel – Commercial Break #1

Here we go! Eureka has returned and I’m in the midst of the first commercial break. Everything’s off to a great (bad) start for the town and it’s nice to know that some of my speculation turned out to the good! :-)

Bad to the Drone Coming Soon

A little speculation about the meaning of the Eureka season three premiere episode title Bad to the Drone.
