I really, really, really love this show! Been a fan since my mom bought me Season 1 on DVD for Christmas a few years ago. Every year, I've gotten a new season and LOVE it!

I think it's because before Stargate Sg-1 and BSG, I've never truly liked the whole cast.

This show has it all! I love each character and how they've developed. Fargo is so far the ONLY stereotype nerd I've ever liked in a TV show. Carter is infinitely likable, so is Zoey, Jo is great, Henry is probably my #2 favorite if not #1...

It's an amazing ensemble!

I just finished watching season 3.5 and I can't wait to see where season 4 takes us. ;) Can't wait for July 2010!!!

For those of you unfamiliar with the series, here's a bit of a synopsis...

A (Confidential) Town History

As World War II came to a close with mushroom clouds over Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the impact that science and technology would have on the continued security of our world became catastrophically apparent. America nearly lost the race to build the atomic bomb; it could not risk such a close call again.

With the help of Albert Einstein and other trusted advisors, President Harry S. Truman commissioned a top-secret residential development in a remote area of the Pacific Northwest, one that would serve to protect and nurture America's most valuable intellectual resources. There our nation's greatest thinkers, the über-geniuses working on the next era of scientific achievement, would be able to live and work in a supportive environment.

The best architects and planners were commissioned to design a welcoming place for these superlative geniuses to reside, an area that would offer the best education for their children, the best healthcare, the best amenities and quality of life. A community was created to rival the most idyllic of America's small towns — with one major difference: this town would never appear on any maps. At least, none that haven't been classified "eyes only" by the Pentagon.

Thus, the town of Eureka was born. But for all its familiar, small-town trappings, things in this secret hamlet are anything but ordinary. The stereotype of the absent-minded professor exists for a reason, and most of the quantum leaps in science and technology during the past 50 years were produced by Eureka's elite researchers. Unfortunately, scientific exploration is rarely what one expects, and years of experiments gone awry have yielded some peculiar by-products.

From unrequited love to professional jealousy, from addiction to depression, the problems of Eureka's townsfolk stem from life's myriad of everyday challenges. But with the population's unique talents, troubled psyches and limitless resources, these small-town concerns have a way of becoming big-time problems. It is at that intersection, where human frailty and super-science collide, that Eureka begins….
