sff: Eureka 4.0

[lyssie]

I think I owe a Sanctuary 3.10 review, too? idk. Maybe later (and something else I'm forgetting)

So. 4.0.

One of the big issues I had with 3.5 was how you could boil down every episode to: Fargo does something stupid, Carter saves the day by being stupid.

4.0? Removes the first half of that, and lets more than Carter be the second half (a bit).

Also. Gaius Baltar.

I'm sorry, though, because right at the moment, the only thing I can focus on is Jo Lupo. And Zane. And how I shipped it before, BUT HOLY GOD IN HELL do I ship it now. WTF I DON'T EVEN.

I've watched two scenes (the ring! and the kiss!) too many times to count, now. OMG THE CRUNCHY ANGST GIVE ME MOOOORE.

asdfkg, sdfskdgsdfkj. I can't even coherently talk about it. So, I won't. Instead I'll just giggle with glee while also wishing that Jo had more of a plot arc without it being about her loooove. Though I'm kinda dealing with that. ok, I'm all right with it because there is angst. And Erica Cerra, you guys, HOLY FUCK, she is awesome and sells. every. moment.

(also, BEVERLY. EEEE. also, bb Grant!. also, HENRY AND GRACE OMG SO ADORABLE =D =D [SHOW IF YOU DO BAD THINGS TO THEM I WILL HURT YOU])

(ok, ok, also, ALLISON IT IS ABOUT TIME.)

Jo/Zane and Dr. Gaius Grant and Henry and Grace, yes. *hearts*

I couldn't agree more on everything :)

I didn't really ship Jo/Zane that much prior to this season but THE ANGST completely won me over. Also, Erica Cerra and her face.

Henry & Grace are adorbs and if they kill her, I may have to be done with this show because...I can't go through that again. *sniffles* I still miss you, Kim.

Yeah, I can pretty much get behind Henry/Grace. Largely because Grace seems pretty awesome in her own right.

I really do wish they'd do more with Jo than just her love life. They used to, didn't they? I swear they did. Maybe I'm misremembering.

It's just wrong that Grant is kinda hot. Because it's Baltar, yo. And that is...just wrong.

Jo/Zane = OTP forever. If it wasn't, then I would be more annoyed at the lack of other Jo plotlines than I am. But now that she has the better new job, maybe she'll get one eventually. *crosses fingers* (All non-shippy plotlines tend to center around GD, iirc)

Awww, yes, Henry/Grace is also very adorable and shippy. I love how she is in on the big secret and is now mostly okay with it. And they were showing each other their different memories (which you know was all for him to show him their marriage, so it is awesome she agreed to it at all) AND THE SINGING.

I was just rewatching the eps and when Baltar Grant basically sexually harrassed Andy, I laughed so hard...hehe

This scene made me laugh so hard. I couldn't stop thinking that the last time they were on my screen together Ty's character tried to kill James' for being to close with human looking robots.

I really liked the ramifications of screwing with time they had to deal with in 4.0. And I liked the characters it brought from Grace through Grant to Beverly coming back. I was happy for Allison and Jack and I'm Henry and Grace now that he came clear to her.

I just wish they stopped hurting Jo. Everyone got something from the switch, something that more then made up for the change. She got better job, it's true but she lost Zane, then her house was destroyed and then there was giant bullet in her chest. I think it's because I watch Eureka for wackiness and hilarity. It's my happy place so anyone suffering on it makes me sad.

I always liked Jo/Zane but now I'm rooting for them more then ever. The only thing I disliked about Christmas episode being out of continuity was that we get no further on the cliffhanger about the ring.
