Actually, honestly, I think I once tried to justify handwavium by claiming that, in their reality, it's all the fault of Superboy Prime.

God, Superboy Prime. I am still so very unamused that Superboy Prime punched reality innaface because he was pissy. And I haven't been reading it, but someone needs to go to Comic-Con and ask GWay "Doom Patrol reboot Y/N?"

Wow, I thought the skiffy boards were bad last year re: Eureka. Talk about inane.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You know, they did it better than Alias. When they mentioned the "black Subaru Forrester" it sounded like normal people talking.

No Dr. Who commentary? Huh. Rather liked this, but I love Shakespeare AU stuff. My DVR conked out just as the Doctor and Martha were running for the Tardis (after he got spotted by Elizabeth I). Did I miss anything?

Nope, Frank. They just ran and got into the TARDIS, the end.

I loved the Shakespeare ep! I thought the actor who played Shakespeare was fantastic. (And hot) I loved all of the "Ooh, good line; I'll have to use that," banter. And, naturally, the "Mumblenumber academics just punched the air," made me laugh out loud.
I have to remember to rewatch on Fridays now.

A theremin player of my acquaintance just did some work for the 4400. On the episode of July 22, there's a sequence where characters are watching a movie and this "movie-within-a-movie" has theremin in the score. I stopped watching the series midway through the second season, but I may need to TiVo this episode!

I didn't even notice the product placement in Eureka. Well done!
Jon, I speak of the "don't kill Beverly!" "Who is going to die?" "Get rid of Stark!" "OMG! they killed Eureka with making Henry a villian!" "1st-time poster, this show is so cancelled cuz they made it dark!" threads.
Forgot how wonderful the Shakespeare ep was of Dr. Who. Witch aliens are still annoying with the cackling. But so much goodness with the Doctor, Martha and Shakes. Especially loved the Doctor rubbing his face at the "political correctness run amok", telling Martha not to speak like she was, etc.
