It’s hard to say goodbye when we found something we really like.
Isn’t it always the way? You find a TV series, you fall in love and then it gets cancelled. “Girl searches for show…Show (like a boy) does everything it can to get her attention…Girl takes a chance on the show…Girl falls in love with the show…Network cancels the show.
Sometimes you wonder why a show is cancelled in what seems like it’s prime, some run its course naturally and others, you can’t understand why it’s still on.
There was Firefly, it was cancelled in its prime, Family Guy was cancelled, brought back, cancelled, brought back. The Finder and John Doe, both one season and the season finale was a cliffhanger and then..nothing, the show was gone.
Since I didn’t have cable, I had access to Netflix and Hulu and I would find a show and watch the entire series from start to finish. A lot of times I did not get into a show when it was on television, I discovered it some times years after it was on the air. The cool thing, you don’t have to wait for the summer to get to the next season and if its a new show, you have the option to wait for the season to be over and watch them all at once.
I was led to this post as tonight, we watched the last few episodes of Eureka. There were five seasons total, it was an interesting, funny, sometimes predictable, clever, silly and sometimes made you think…could this be possible?
This was a show that I could have seen continuing past just five seasons, but they went out on a high note, the last season more wonky than not, there were nail biting moments, tears, laughter, doh, expletives, the entire gamut of emotions. Good closure for the main characters and a happy ending.

The worst part..after you finish watching from start to finish and you’ve been dedicated, you look at each other and say..what next? I did that after I finished reading The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo series.
So, Eureka has ended, Warehouse 13 doesn’t have new episodes uploaded to Netflix yet and Grimm is on summer hiatus, what will we do? We might have to talk to each other!
