http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/08/01/Eureka-Games-People-Play.aspx Virtual therapy devices. Talking houses. Computers that squeeze the power of a mainframe into a package smaller than an iPod. And this week, magical vanishing people that draw their histories and existence behind them like Alice going down the rabbit hole. Things are never dull in Eureka. I haven’t made up my mind yet whether life for Sheriff Jack Carter (Coin Ferguson) would be giddy fun or adrenaline-fueled terror if this town was real, but I suspect it would be somewhere in-between. Anyway, the plot: Sheriff Carter has an eventful morning in Eureka. His ex-wife Abby (Olivia d’Abo) is getting ready for daughter Zoë (Jordan Hinson) to come back with her to L.A., which has Carter in deep denial. Meanwhile, Henry (Joe Morton) starts his first day back at Global, in the lab that once belonged to his old flame Kim, and scientists are, as usual, working on transuranic elements off-campus without permission. I mean, wouldn’t you? While visiting one such naughty scientist, Carter gets bonked on the head by said scientist’s quantum whirligig, then goes home and gets into an argument with Zoë, who is using a virtual therapy device Beverly (Debrah Farentino) left her before vamoosing from town. Now feeling blue, Carter goes on about his day, only to find various citizens vanishing in the occasional blaze of light, and those who are left have no memory of the disappeared. As Eureka shrinks, Carter becomes more and more fearful, as the count spirals down to just Carter … and Zoë. en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/08/01/Eureka-Games-People-Play.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/08/01/Eureka-Games-People-Play.aspx#1075 Eureka is a series I like to watch. Of course I don't believe in houses talking to one or any other thing like that. That's DEMONIC SPIRITS. GOD didn't create houses to talk, come on get real. Mankind was created to talk and they only / NOTHING ELSE! I'll pray for those who think otherwise!
