TODAY'S FEATURE - Blog #3187:

Last night, after coming home from the concert in the park, Tina and I were in time to watch the Premiere Episode for the New 4th Season of EUReKA. Which reminded me that the upcoming San Diego Comic Con, that is only 11 days away!

Now why would it do that?

Well, that's because we were 'introduced' to this TV Show by Colin Ferguson a.k.a. Sheriff Jack Carter himself at the 2007 San Diego Comic Con in 2007!

Quite honestly I was there at the Sci-Fi Channel's Program for the 'Stan Lee's Who Wants To Be A Super-hero?' segment, but this segment about EureKa was up first.

And man, are both Tina and I are glad that we found EUReKA!

Immediately Tina and I scoured for a copy of the EUReKA DVD Seasons One and Two, and then caught up with what was then the start of Season Three as introduced at the 2007 SDCC.

Here is one of the several blogs that I have posted since first finding EUReKA in 2007.  Please excuse the formatting problem, this was first posted in our eBay Blog which is now defunct. The format layout does not carry over properly to this current blog platform.

Anyways, for those of YOU that haven't seen this show, or haven't been introduced to the two comic book mini-series published by BOOM Studios, here is the 'gist' of what the TV Show on the new SyFy Channel is about from the WikiPedia entry:

"Eureka (the logo of which appears as EUReKA) is an American science fiction television series that premiered on Syfy on July 18, 2006, and since then three full seasons have aired. The show is set in a fictional town called Eureka in the Pacific Northwest inhabited almost entirely by geniuses and scientists that live in a top-secret government-run town. Nearly everyone in Eureka works for Global Dynamics, a huge advanced research facility responsible for the development of all major technological breakthroughs in the last 50 years. Each episode features a mysterious accidental or intentional misuse of technology which is then solved by the town Sheriff, Jack Carter with the help of town scientists. There is also a story arc concerning a mysterious artifact that has had an appearance in both the first and second seasons."

The new 4th Season of this show just started last night.  It was reported earlier that there should be 22 episodes in this latest season, but that doesn't sound right for a series that has only been aired in the Summer Seasons to my knowledge.

Anyways, this TV Series and the two comic book mini-series have been really good viewing for Tina and myself since first finding it in 2007 at the SDCC by 'accident'. 

That is one of the reasons that neither of us miss this Comic-Con...there is so much to find there!

We will be blogging about what we find there at this 2010 event, and Facebooking at Hamersky.com - which is my own Facebook Group Page. I'll be doing that off and on during the Con. There will be photos posted at my own Facebook Member Page, but unfortunately that is maxed out at the 5,000 total Facebook Friends and Fan Pages that I can have or 'like'.

Talking about Facebook, there isn't an actual Facebook Fan Page for this TV Show, which is unbelievable to me, because as of this blog post, there are over 100,000 Facebookers who have 'liked' the Facebook Community Page for this TV Show.  Someone is definitely missing out on this opportunity to catch the interest of this many Facebookers out there!

That's it for this blog post, and now YOU know OUR connection between Comic-Con and EUReKA!  If neither are on your attending or viewing schedule or reading lists, I suggest you take a closer look at doing so!  The time travel Premiere Episode aired last night is just the start of a another Great Season, IMO!  

My thanks again to all of YOU reading this blog and our archived blog posts, now over the 3,185 total posts in number!
