Eureka - The TV addict is not amused

[strangevisitor7]

It's very spoilery so rant under the cut



They killed Nathan Stark - I F%$#@# hate this show. He was my favorite character and they killed him!!!!!!!!!! Ranty Mcrant in full force.

Well I guess that's one less show I have to worry about. His snarky banter with Carter was the BEST part of the show. Plus Stark - so very hot - very nice viewing - I'm shallow I admit it but I do seem to have a thing for people named Stark(e)

I don't understand why they would kill such a great charater.
On top of that time loop episodes are one of my favorite plot devices. "Mystery Spot" on SPN & Window Of Opportunity" on SG-1. So on top of everything else, Eureka ruined this for me, too.


Ok rant over but still very angry. Eureka off my viewing list

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! O.O Nooooooo! There go all my hopes and dreams of Iron Man crossovers!

Maybe the fandom uproar will cause them to bring him back somehow. They did it to Daniel, and Carson, and Janet.

I know - Nathan is Tony's brother - Ironman won't take this lying down. Still the Stargate universe seems to be the only one that listens when fans get upset

I couldn't believe they did that either! Stupid show!

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

Very stupid show!!! I can't imagine what they were thinking!

Plenty of room in Denial-Land for another! He can keep Richie, Nick Knight, Tara, Darius, Wash, Zahn, Tosh and Owen, along with many others, company...

I shouldn't be reading this as I'm just about to embark on watching it...

Yep he's right there with Wash and Richie. Guess I'll have to resurrect him as an immortal just like I did for Wash.

I don't stand for producers killing my favorite characters!

I know, right! BUT wait, this is Eureka, there's a very strong possibility that Stark is still alive. I can see Henry and Fargo finding Stark and Carter doing something very heroic to save him with Ali's forever gratitude.

It killed me last night. I'm still welling up when I think about it.

I'm willing to go along with Eureka and see how they rectify this. But if Stark stays dead...

Hubby thinks he'll be back. i hope he's right. I'm going to be very upset if he stays dead. If they simply wanted Allison not to marry him then they should have found a better way out of the situation.

I am still upset too! Even more than when Whedon killed Wash or Highlander killed Richie!

I was on powerful meds last night and barely noticed the fact that I was watching Eureka, but... WTF?! They killed him off?! Dude, I really liked him! >:(

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

I know - still stunned. I Doubt I'll keep watching. And I just realized that I can't even make him Immortal becasue they disintegrated his body

How are you feeling BTW?

[muses-circle.livejournal.com]

Did they really? Argh. :( I'll have to try and find it and watch it when I'm feeling better. Right now, I feel like one large, walking sore muscle...

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

*hugs* I hope you get to feeling better. What a Sucky way to start the year feeling that way

I didn't see this ep all the way through. Killed Stark? Bummer. Cuz I soooo, didn't want to see Carter and What's her name together. Not At ALL. What happened to the dry cleaning lady? I missed most of S2 so I'm waaaay behind. I thought those two had good chemistry.

Stark was a jerk, but nice eye candy.

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

TO be honest - I don't remember what happened to her. I will miss the Carter Stark interaction - it was my favorite part

[dhark-charlotte.livejournal.com]

Ah well, That just gives us more time for the shows we really want to watch.

I have come across an interesting bit of info--Ed Quinn decided to leave the show (http://revealthescience.blogspot.com/2008/08/goodbye-nathan.html), therefore his character was killed.

Makes me feel a tad bit more chartable towards the show.

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the link.

I am glad to know it was done because the actor moved on and not as a cheap rating grabbing stunt.

That being said - i think Ed Quinn is making a big mistake.

But it will make it easier to watch the show!
