Yeah, he's expressed that he'll remain on board with Torchy.

There was a shot of Henry's ship against the blue sky that looked like the shot of Serenity during Book's flashback in Out of Gas. And Zane's organic computer was very Cylon tech.
I'm liking that bringing Tamlyn back doesn't reset or undermine Kim's death. I still remember the kraxy on the skiffy boards after Once in a Lifetime.

Poochie! Yay!
I may grow to love Astro-Kim more than the original, based on this.

I really liked Allison and Carter's relationship this ep. They've seemed to have hit their stride since they laid off forcing it.
I think they've also been doing really well with Zane since they started treating him like one of the many scientists at GD. He hasn't bothered me in a long while, at least enough eps this third season that the foul taste of his first episodes have been rinsed clean. For me, at least.*
Tess continues to bewilder me. I don't know if it's how her dialogue is written or how JRN plays her or both.
* Did I misinterpret your enthusiasm, Matt? And did I just get defensive of Zane? O_o

Shame it didn't take. Though I agree with Juliebird that he's been WAY less obnoxious this season. Still, there was all that icky stuff with Jo. BRING BACK TAGGART!!!!
Tess continues to bewilder me.
I like her enthusiastic geekiness. But wasn't she sent by the Defense Department, or am I totally mis-remembering? If she was, she's not acting like it at all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I love Joe Morton. Even if the plot or science is weak (I thought this week's was okay), I know I can rely on getting good stuff from Joe and Colin and Zoe (she had the week off, it seems!) and Neil and Chris. Not that sold on Salli, but I like her best playing single and bossy. And Jaime could grow on me--I think they're pacing their way to Teck?/Jass? nice and slow.

ITA with ita. The science stuff stopped bothering me. At this point not going to get better, so my choices were stop letting it bother me, or stop watching. This is one the few areas where the name change is a plus. What Eureka uses is not science. it is syence. Same thing Dr. Who and Torchwood, and BSG use for that matter. I'm trying to remember if there ever was a Science Fiction TV series that got the science right.
