I've just noticed that Pick TV are going to start showing Eureka from the 18th March , which is good news for me as I've only ever seen the first series and quite enjoyed watching it. It seems to be a replacement for ST:Enterprise at 8:00 in the evening, so I guess that they won't be showing season 3&4 of that show!
The weird thing about Eureka is that there doesn't seem to be a single thread about the show on the forum! Was it really that unpopular?

I've never seen it either and I'm tempted but every night at 8.00pm is one hell of a commitment in missing evening football matches and what have you......particularly as I'm already watching Andromeda at 7.00pm
I'm on Virgin and we don't have Pick plus one
I couldn't find a thread on here either.........
There are US pace threads for each season. The search facility can't seem to find them though.
I managed to watch the whole series from box sets and it is very good. Glad Pick TV are showing it.
Here is the Season 3 thread, but obviously it will contain spoilers.

The characters are good. The plots are wacky. But the main story arcs really suck. The first arc runs for season 1-2 and by the end your like "did i actually waste 26 episodes of my life to find that out". I am also a bit wary of sci-fi shows that have comedy in them and sometimes this show can't balance the comedy and drama, and it can become a bit too much. The show becomes increasingly worse from season 3 onwards. I'll let you decide for yourself.
I don't think the lack of theads on here suggest it was unpopular, but more current sci-fi/fantasy shows are normally up for discussion much more than past shows.
Saw some but not all of Season 1 when it first aired but stopped watching for some reason or other.
When I heard Season 5 was going to be the last one I decided to watch that (had seen the Warehouse 13 crossovers) just to see how things ended.
Once I'd seen Season 5 I decided to watch the earlier ones but watched them in the order 4 - 3 - 2.
Never got back to rewatching Season 1 though.
But it was an amiable watch - not at all ground breaking or deep and incisive but enjoyable enough.
There is some crossover with Warehouse 13 towards the end.
That doesn't surprise me as I've always thought that the two shows were quite similar in both their subject and their general tone.
I assumed SyFy's rights have run out but I'm sure they showed some episodes not long ago. But it was stupid-o'clock in the morning (6am I think) and could have just been burning them off I guess.
They seem to have a cycle of when they air their shows
Before xmas, it was Eureka
After xmas it was Warehouse 13
and soon they are showing Sanctuary
