These construction mites have been created in order to build and maintain the Astraeus FTL spaceship on the mission to Titan. Unfortunately, the experiments in FTL communication has led to a malfunction in the mites, that makes it impossible to control them or shut them down, so they relentlessly pursue their primary function, which is to construct ship parts. Unfortunately, the raw material used for this construction is tungsten, which is also the main construction component used at Global Dynamics. At the same time the Astraeus candidates have moved on to the next level of testing, and Zane Donovan, Douglas Fargo, Jo Lupo, Holly Marten, and Dr. Parrish are all isolated in a cell for psychological stress testing, the test is compounded by the fact that the construction mites are threatening to destabilize and collapse the entire area where the cell is located.Episode 60"Clash of the Titans" August 22, 201160 Days remaining until the Astraeus Mission Launch.Tiny, the Titan rover, is returned to GD after exploring Titan, and bringing samples of the atmosphere, surface etc. However when the compression shield is dropped, Tiny explodes, scattering the samples all over the area.

It has emerged that the power shortage, along with a number of power arrays across the town, is fueling a number of micro black holes across Eureka. Carter succeeds in evacuating Cafe Diem before it is destroyed. Jo and Carter decide the best course of action is to surround the lake with arrays, attracting all the micro black holes to that spot to continue the Astreaus launch, however they all merge to create a larger black hole. Carter, using Deacon's help, is able to eliminate the black hole with antimatter. Jo decides to leave Eureka. The countdown to the launch continues. However once Allison fills all the stasis pods with the ship's crew, mission control finds that somebody has hacked into the network, speeding the timer and redirecting the ship's destination.

Crashing over Eureka, a wave of color changes the town to animation of multiple styles and cartoonish effects, including Jack's jeep coming alive, Andy being turned into a cartoonish robot, and Jo becoming a princess. All this caused by the Super Photon Generator, a massive holographic matrix meant as Jack's Christmas gift for the kids (with help from Fargo). Meanwhile, Kevin, Zoey, and Jenna opened a gift early called "Holotown", a 'create your own story' book using holograms. It turns out that the gift the kids opened crossed signals with the Super Photon Generator. As the episode goes on, with the main characters aware of the changing animations, the kids add villainous Snow Ninjas to spice up the story. As Jack, Andy, Allison, and Jo make it to the generator, they see Dr. Drummer- a scientist from the last holiday special- trying to fix the generator; but as he is, the snow ninjas join to create a 50 foot snow monster. The kids realize the connection between the generator and their book and give the others a fighting chance with Kevin turning them into Anime to defeat the snow ninja monster. Jack gets Jo close enough to throw a bomb into the monster, blowing it up. As the others fight the Snow Ninja Monster, Allison, Andy, and Dr. Drummer finally repair the generator, returning everyone to normal perspective. At the end of the episode, everyone gets together for a Christmas dinner at the smart house.

Great service, delivered on schedule and in great condition

All the discs are good and it arrived super fast.

I loved this series from the first season. I only viewed the first season because someone suggested I might like it--instead I was hooked. I do not watch TV so I wait until the end of each season and buy the DVD set. To say the town of Eureka and its denizens is unique, is an understatement. Each has their own foibles. I consider it a 2 part series because of it. There is the town's aspects and the characters aspects. I want to live there as I watch each episode.Hilarious things happen in this town what with a group of scientific nerds, and their experiments-which many times go awry. And then there is the sheriff (Colin Fergeson) who is a normal, everyday type of person who by this time (Season 4.5) is better able to handle the uncanny mistakes that the scientists make.The entire town and GD (the installation where and for whom they work) are very much a family. With all that goes with being a family. Give it a try. It is fun. It can be sad. It is always interesting. And it is heartwarming.

Eureka is easily my favorite show. It's funny, ridiculous, heartfelt, poignant, and endlessly creative all at the same time. It was always a good show, but I think it became a GREAT show when the timeline was reset at the beginning of season four. It's set in the super-secret town of Eureka, Oregon. Orginally a military town, Eureka was founded by Albert Einstein. And, of course, all of the world's greatest discoveries began there. It's filled with geniuses whose experiments constantly go awry. It's usually up to Jack Carter (the everyman sheriff) to find a common sense solution to save the town from destruction - which he ends up doing every week with a little help from his friends. You don't have to be a science fiction fan to enjoy this show (I'm not). You just learn to love the characters and the town. In other words ... just go with it! It's well conceived, well written, and perfectly acted. It's a HUGE shame to see this show end way too soon and I will miss it! There is a season five yet to come, and I won't give up hope for a tv movie (or several!) in the future. Do yourself a favor and get to know Eureka. You'll be glad you did!

Love the show, period, end of statement!However:The packaging REALLY sucks (two-stars).The "seasons" so-confuses me that I almost missed THIS [4.5{!}] one.To remedy my almost watching programs out-of-sequence....and they jam up on my video shelves...I've repackaged them, myself, into NEW, replacement, 4&6-DVD-empty clear cases like THIS:Season 3 & 3.5 together ([only]4 discs)Season 3 as the outter wrapper with 3.5 cut to the inside spine. 10 Clear Thin Quad Overlap DVD Empty Replacement Boxes / Cases with Wrap Around Sleeve #DV4R14CL (14mm) (4DVD) Season 4 & 4.5 together ([only]5 discs)Season 4 as the outter wrapper with 4.5 cut to the inside spine. 10 Clear 6 Disc DVD Cases Another fine show I LIKE with 5-star (*****) packaging is WAREHOUSE THIRTEEN (13) !While this might present no problem to a NORMAL video-collector, I have been ab-normal for 63 years.QUAD-CASES can be purchased from various places, but, of course, the CLEAR ones are the best-functioning; -made; and highest-tech!

I can hardly wait to get season 5.

Entertaining and funny!!!!!
