Last week Syfy said that it picked up a 6 episode 6th season of Eureka and denied that it would be its last one. Well today the network not only took that statement back, they also pulled their order for the 6th season and cancelled the show. The network released a statement to EW that says, “After painstaking consideration, we have had to make the difficult business decision to not order a season six of Eureka. But Eureka is not over yet. There is a new holiday episode this December and 12 stellar episodes set to debut next year, marking its fifth season and six memorable years on Syfy. The 2012 episodes are some of the best we’ve seen, and will bring this great series to a satisfying end. We are very grateful to Bruce Miller and Jaime Paglia, their team of incredible writers, and an amazing cast and crew who have consistently delivered a series we continue to be very proud of. We thank the fans for their support of this show and know they will enjoy its final season in 2012.“
As a fan of the show, I am saddened by Syfy’s decision and I think it is a dumb one. Eureka deserves a proper goodbye and I really wish that Syfy considers giving the show a two hour goodbye Saturday film! Syfy please be smart and give the show a proper send off.
UPDATE: Here is cast reaction to the sad news: Colin Ferguson: Thanks for the outpouring of affection everyone. YOU made the show. YOU made it special. YOU made it worth being part of. Thank you so much
Neil Grayston: Thanks for the huge support regarding #Eureka’s cancellation everyone! We love you guys, and we’ve still got 13 episodes for you next year! Again, can’t thank you guys enough for putting up with our wacky hijinks all these years. You’re the bestest!
Salli Richardson: I am still in shock. I will return tomorrow. going to bed. Thanks guys I love you all
Felicia Day: At any rate, it’s been very fun to be on the show! Hope they can end the story with closure for the fans before the series ends. 🙂 #Eureka
Wil Wheaton: It’s been one of the greatest joys of my life to work on #Eureka. I’ve made new friends for life, and I’m so proud of the stories we’ve told
Niall Matter: The cast and crew of #Eureka just gathered for a heartfelt send off from @jaimepaglia. We all enjoyed making this show for you… Thank you!
Jamie Paglia (EP/creator): …All my thanks to our amazing cast, crew and creative team for their phenomenal work on these 76 episodes of #Eureka. You’re the best. UPDATE 2:Neil Grayston had the best Tweet about what he will do next now that he will no longer be playing Fargo on Eureka. He said, “Also, now I can pursue my dream of dressing up like the Hamburglar and officiating pet weddings at select dog friendly McDonald’s locations.” I would pay him on Tuesday for a Hamburglar today!
Before Kris Jenner was talking about her daughters on TV, she was singing about her friends. She looks the same now as she did when she was 30 in that 1985 home video.
CeeLo Green has a new video out for his song Cry Baby and he got Jaleel White to play him. I think the casting is perfect because I heard any time anyone calls Jaleel Steve Urkel he becomes a cry baby?
Now back to the video even though The Voice coach got Stefan Urquelle to be his alter ego, I think he would’ve been suave enough to play himself. I wonder why they didn’t have CeeLo play CeeLo instead of Urkel playing CeeLo?
Ever wish you went to Bayside High and hung out with Zach, Slater, Kelly, Jessie, Lisa and Screech? Well now you can with this interactive Saved By The Bell game by The Fine Bros. But I have to give you a warning get all your homework done before you press play because once you do, you won’t want to do anything else. Seriously I feel like Jessie when she had one too many caffeine pills.
Tia and Tamera Mowry have grown up and now one of them is prepping to give birth to her first child while the other one is getting married; and we can watch it all happen on Style every Monday at 9p starting tonight. Tamera is weeks away from marrying her dream man and she is upset that her pregnant twin sister isn’t making time to help her plan her wedding. Tia is dealing with working on The Game, promoting the show and growing a baby inside her that she doesn’t have the time to do her Maid of Honor duties. This will cause a rift between the Sister, Sisters, and they will try to work it out on tonight’s episode.
Tia and Tamera is enjoyable reality show where we get to watch two of favorite twin sisters experience some of the best moments of their life. It is a rare opportunity to be let in on such an intimate moment in two women’s lives and this show does it right!
