The article mentions several times a changed or altered timeline, but does not explain when or why this happens. The change seems to be a major event, and deserves a subsection of its own. --Austrian (talk) 11:56, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a little explanation in the synopsis section, it probably needs expanding and editing, but does clarify a bit. 109.130.58.72 (talk) 12:06, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The title logo for the series has the second 'e' in small case. Is this a reference to Napier's constant? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.74.159.5 (talk) 03:53, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see mention of the character Warren King, the head of Global Dynamics, who appears in the pilot. Could someone add that, or is he so minor, it doesn't matter?

The Antivirus didn't destroy the matrix. The matrix was taken offline and Holly jumped into GD's computers. The antivirus was run against the GD mainframe, not the Matrix computer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:470:7:1193:0:0:0:2 (talk) 02:08, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why is Artie (Saul Rubinek) not included in the section about this cross-over? He was in Eureka Season 1 ep 5 "Invincible" as Dr. Carl Carlson. [1] 208.95.51.163 (talk) 17:26, 16 July 2013 (UTC)DJ 7/16/13[reply]

It was the same actor playing a different character, I don't think Carl Carlson was ever intended to be linked with Artie. 81.156.179.244 (talk) 09:21, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there a redirect from "General Mansfield" to this article?-Godot13 (talk) 01:22, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is that anyone searching for General Mansfield (as in Civil War general Joseph K. Mansfield) will wind up at this article.-Godot13 (talk) 01:26, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Probably because AFAIR there is a minor character in the first 3 seasons with this name. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 09:21, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I guess my question would be why a minor character in a TV show gets a redirect that perhaps should lead you to an historical Civil War general? (Also, what is AFAIR?)-Godot13 (talk) 14:41, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Good question, I have no idea. AFAIR = as far as I remember. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 07:33, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't it worth mentioning the "sell-out" (the internet's phrase for it) to have on-screen sponsorship in the show?

and so on....

• Product placement is nothing new. It really isn't as relevant for a TV series as for a single movie that used a lot of it. Niteshift36 (talk) 01:48, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can somebody explain to me why we shouldn't write the beginning of an article about the TV series that ended as "Eureka was an American science fiction television series.."? Why should we change it into "Eureka is.." and all the others alike? -- İskenderBalas^💬 19:20, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The only information about the critical response to this long-running cult favorite is for the pilot. Someone who cares about the show more than I do probably should rectify that. DollarX (talk) 03:29, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I believe Ambani's wife controls this city. But during the world wars it got disrupted. 115.98.232.8 (talk) 10:15, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
