I’ve been watching the second season of Eureka<\/a> on DVD recently.\u00a0 This series is really so much fun!\u00a0 I especially like that the whole family can enjoy it.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve never seen the series, it\u2019s really fun and worth checking out. It\u2019s sort of popcorn-Sci-Fi, or a gateway drug to real Science Fiction. Even my non-geek wife enjoys the show. It\u2019s about a high tech community located in the Pacific Northwest that is inhabited entirely by brilliant scientists working on new scientific advancements for the United States government that frequently go disastrously awry. While there is a great cast, the main protagonist is Sheriff Jack Carter. Carter, a former U.S. Marshal that reluctantly took the position of Sheriff, serves as the \u201cregular guy\u201d on the show so that we the viewers can connect. He is consistently dumbfounded by the wonders Eureka produces, as well as their propensity to produce things that often threaten the entire town, if not the world.<\/p>\n

Here is one of my favorite commercials for the show.\u00a0 And no, it’s not normally a musical.<\/p>\n
