The news broke last night that Syfy is canceling Eureka – ironically while a new episode of the show was airing. And while that news is very sad for the show’s diehard fanbase (myself included), there is a little bit of a silver lining. Eureka is NOT going off the air this year.
As most folks have probably read by now, there are still five more episodes of the current season that is airing, there will be an all-new Christmas episode airing this December AND there will be 12 more episodes in Season 5 that are set to air next year.
Also, this November the folks at Creation Entertainment are putting together a convention honoring Eureka (as well as its nightly counterpart: Warehouse 13). You can learn more details on that convention – which will be held in Los Angeles – here.
Finally, I wanted to share some words from the Executive Producer and Co-Creator of Eureka, Jaime Paglia:
“Heartfelt thanks to all our Eureka fans for the incredible support. You’re the reason we do what we do. It has been a privilege. We hope to be able to give you, the characters, and Eureka a proper send-off. We’re doing all we can to make that happen. But whatever happens, you have a season and a half of fantastic new episodes to come through next year. It only gets better. 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.”
So, let’s enjoy the time we have left with one of our beloved sci-fi shows and relish each new episode as it airs!
