Product Description
It's the same small town but the hidden secrets are even bigger in the city of Eureka when it returns to DVD with Eureka: Season Two! The 3-disc DVD set includes every episode from season two plus over 10 hours of behind-the-scenes extras. Discover the mysteriously-surreal, quirky series when Eureka: Season Two appears on DVD!

Amazon.com
Plenty of new television series need a season or two to sort themselves out, and as this three-disc, 13-episode (plus bonus features) box set from the second season (2007) reveals, the Sci-Fi Channel?s Eureka is still a work in progress--which is not a bad thing, considering that it?s one of the more provocative and ambitious shows out there. For the uninitiated, here?s the basic premise: Sheriff Jack Carter (Colin Ferguson), accompanied by his teenage daughter Zoe (Jordan Hinson), is stationed in Eureka, a picturesque little burg somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. Eureka is hardly Anytown, USA; indeed, this is the place where "the world?s greatest thinkers" live and work, most of them at Global Dynamics, "the most advanced scientific facility in the world." It?s also a place where exceedingly strange things happen on a regular basis. In Season Two, those happenings include people spontaneously combusting, becoming invisible, turning into gold, or simply disappearing (and leaving nothing behind--not even a memory that they ever existed); a "personal force field" that?s growing so large and so fast that it will soon engulf the whole town, and maybe even the whole world; freaky weather that changes by the moment; and even an experiment to re-create the Big Bang inside a Global Dynamics lab, leading to some unexpected side effects.

These developments are all presented with enough cool special effects and scientific techno-babble to make Eureka a perfectly viable and sometimes quite dramatic science fiction diversion. But there?s more--much more. Sometimes this is a show about relationships: Jack and Zoe (custody becomes an issue when Jack?s ex, played by Olivia D?Abo, shows up in the early episodes); Jack and Allison Blake (Salli Richardson), Global Dynamics? new boss (their growing attraction is complicated by the continued presence of her ex, a genius scientist type); Jack and his pal Henry (Joe Morton), who blames Jack for his girlfriend?s death but gradually learns there?s more to it than that. Much of the time it?s a comedy, heavy on the quirks; and, in a change from the first year, it?s also a serial, with several story arcs continuing over the course of the season. All of that can make Eureka a but convoluted and hard to get a handle on, but this show is a keeper. Extensive bonus features include deleted scenes, gag reels, podcast commentaries, and a good deal more. --Sam Graham

4 out of 5 stars eureka two   October 18, 2008
Great science fiction. We enjoy it very much. Would you believe we set our DVD player to repeat all and let it run all night near our bed.

Eureka - Season Two

My husband and I really like this series. I'm glad to have another series to watch over and over and over.

The item was sent in a timely manner and in excellent condition.



1 out of 5 stars Worst DVD packaging EVER!!   October 7, 2008
I'm not going to comment on the quality of the show. I haven't watched the 2nd season yet, but the first was an easy 4 stars. This DVD set features "eco-friendly" packaging, which is fine in it's own right. But the packaging severely damages the discs. The 2nd disc in my set was already delaminated upon first opening. In short, the spindles do not allow you to remove the disc without bending the disc severely. They also grip the discs way too tight, which I believe accounts for the delamination (bending the discs also accelerates delamination). If you look through my reviews you'll notice a couple of other reviews commenting on poor DVD packaging, but this set is BY FAR THE WORST!! If you are a DVD collector I assume you're educated in proper DVD care and storage...if you're not a DVD collecting nerd like me, then you may not know the effects of such horrendous packaging. Take it from me, DO NOT BUY THIS. Rent or download it instead.


5 out of 5 stars Thanks!!!   October 5, 2008
Everything was as expected. This show is so much fun!!! I am glad we recieved the cd's so quickly. Thanks!!!!


5 out of 5 stars great!!!   September 29, 2008
My husband and I have viewed about half of the dvd set. I missed the second season when it came on TV. It used to be that all new seasons started at the same time in the fall, but not any more, alas. So I bought the dvd set. The second season is just as good as the first. I really love this show. I like this kind of futuristic sci-fi and there's enough humor to weight off some of the heavier subject matter. It is a real winner!
