I think enough producer-tinkering happened that Eureka works well enough in the broadcast order.
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

The bonus materials kinda rock! I bet some of the outtakes will include stuff changed to revamp continuity. As I recall, there was only one or two "Hmmm?" moments where you could tell they screwed up the character development by the re-ordering, partly in the relationship between Jack and Jo.

Found over at scifi:
Callum Keith Rennie (Leoben Conoy on SCI FI Channel's Battlestar Galactica) has joined the cast of SCI FI's upcoming miniseries Tin Man, a new take on L. Frank Baum's classic The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, in which he will play Zero, the lead henchman for the wicked sorceress Azkadellia (Kathleen Robertson).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Vaguely tangential to Eureka I ran across the last few minutes of an Outer Limits with Colin F as the antagonist/possessed guy last night. He did coldly vindictive quite well, and it was my first look at him in a villain role.

So I came back from being gone all weekend, and was surprised that BS had higher post numbers than Bitches. I haven't watched anything from the weekend yet, so I was avoiding it like the plague. Then I remembered we did an SPN watch and post this weekend. Hee. So I just squinted past the show talk and finished the 200+ posts. I love my talky meat Boxed Set. I'm sure I'll have something non-SPN-related to say once I've actually watched all my Sci-Fi.
Thank you to whoever pointed out the identity of the bad guy from IMToD. It was driving me batty trying to remember where I saw him.
My mom caught an episode of SPN (after watching all of S1 during a weekend she visited me) and was so confused about what happened to John. I recounted IMToD in all its glory for her. (Sadly, I didn't think she'd be as excited about the Scrub Pants of Ultimate Hotness, since she's literally old enough to be his mother, so I left that out.)

My mother watches SPN too, and every so often will still sigh, "I wish they'd bring back John...." Although I suspect she appreciates the eye candy of Sam & Dean too.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Have people learned nothing from Firefly?Apparently not. I was convinced that I'd screwed up my viewing order of TDF but, no, it was them. Bastards.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The finale of Life On Mars keeps coming back to me. If you look at it from the PoV of the people in reality, who stayed by his side and talked to him (even the GF that left) and urged him to stay strong, he just woke up, hung around a little, and then committed suicide. That's rough.

Life on Mars finale:
Uh-huh. That's why I like my completely-manipulated-to-suit-me wank of events. La-la-la-la I can't hear you. Or read you .
