Eureka - Music

[Abraxas]

Its been bugging me all night - what is the song playing when Carter wakes up at the beginning of tonight's episode (Once in a Lifetime).

 

[Crothian]

I don't recall it. The episode while good and very plot oriented, was one of the weaker this season.

 

[Abraxas]

I think it was something by Traffic - but I can't place it.

I wish programs would list all the music used - and didn't mess around with the credits so you could actually read them.

Yeah, I've been a little put out ever since it finished. It was unhappy, but not strongly unhappy, since we know Miles Dyson is leaving the show anyway. And there's still a paradox. The only redeeming fact is that, hopefully, next season will involve a lot of Farscape-esque craziness as Carter deals with knowing how events are supposed to play out compared to how they actually do.

Let's see. Already he's mind-melded with a genius scientist and gone back in time. Pretty good for season 1. I think in season 1 of Farscape, John Crichton only put up with hallucinating going home thanks to the Ancients and the Aurora Chair, so they're kinda matched.

Try IMDB.com. Sometimes they list credits for individual episodes. Also, try Scifi.com.

 

[Abraxas]

Tried both already - no luck.
Actually I've been extremely disappointed with Scifi.com and their episode info for quite some time.

You got that impression too, that he kept his 4 years worth of alternate timeline memories? That's wild. Carter's going to seem like a super-genius for a while until stuff diverges enough that he doesn't know what will happen.

He doesn't really know how things are "supposed to" happen, just how they "did" happen in the alternate timeline. I would say they restored the "supposed to" timeline by doing away with the paradox. Which is mindbending.

He knows about the psychologist being evil, right? At least, it seemed like that had been resolved in the "future". If he does, I wonder if there's anything stopping him from just arresting her in episode #201. That would be entertaining. Or maybe the consortium isn't as evil as we've been led to think; we've never seen them do anything beyond a bit of corporate espionage, right? And what was that bit with the visiphone at the end of the episode? The consortium guy hung up on her, and the logo on his screen was for General Dynamics, which is the company right there in Eureka, I thought. So she's working for someone who's already inside the company she's spying on? Hopefully that will become more clear.

She did commit murder in the first episode. But yes, it seems that someone on the inside is who she is secretly working for.

Bah, I forgot about that. Ok, they're evil.

So I wonder how she got out of the consortium in the alternate timeline and managed to stick around Eureka? Must have turned state's evidence or something, or else helped the appropriate authorities roll up the consortium without ever revealing she was part of it. Hmm.

Hey, hey... Careful with the spoilers, there. Some of us haven't seen it yet.
