My Favorite Quotes

When someone tells you something defies description, you can be pretty sure he’s going to have a go at it anyway.
Clyde B. Aster

Eureka – Pilot

This continuity error has a valid reason behind it.  The error is when Brian and Nanuk are in the RV and Nanuk is growling at the break down in the laws of physics.  In the wide shot you can see both Nanuk and Brian, but in the close up of Nanuk you can only see the dog, but should be able to see Brian’s shoulder.  They were in close proximity.  The reason Brian isn’t in the shot is safety.  You don’t want a child that close to a snarling dog.  Even if it is just acting.

Eureka – Pilot- Favorite Quotes

Marshal Jack Carter: Let’s not shoot the crazy-end-of-the-world machine just yet okay?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marshal Jack Carter: You’ve had problems before.
Dr. Allison Blake: Ocassionally.
Jack: Like?
Allison: Global Warming.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sheriff Jack Carter: Not the promotion you were hoping for. No big deal. You can do this Jack.

Eureka – Pilot

Notice that, just after Marshal Carter follows Lowjack through the forrest before Taggart shoots Carter with the dart gun, when Carter raises his hand as he’s saying “This is the creepiest this I…” he’s got the dart in his hand.

Eureka – Purple Haze

Trivia time.  In Purple Haze, after the Sheriff breaks up the fight between Fargo and Seth Osbourne Fargo says to his beta fish “Warren, tonight we sleep like King’s.”  This is a reference to the Pilot episode.  Warren King was the head of Global Dynamics.

Look at the logo for GD in the pilot, it’s a rounded GD, but in the episodes it’s triangular.  And they have that cool lit sign in front of the building.
