Does this show remind anyone of Stargate? It just so is like Stargate's little brother. I mean, the main character's name is JACK CARTER? *snort*
I'm so glad someone else saw the similarities. When I heard the name "Jack Carter" I howled! (There was also a Walter which tickled me.) He's also got a wonderful, snarky quality about him that reminded me of SG1 - Jack. I like the way he's not a scientist but it was his different way of looking at things that helped solve the first crime and save the day the second time. I loved it.
The writing was great and it was very, very funny. All of the SG guest stars made Eureka feel like an AU hometown. It's already become one of my favorite sci-fi shows and I've only seen the premiere - twice. :D
