Big Bads: Tonight's first-rate episode of Eureka sees the return of the techie town's biggest bads; a side effect of this person's diabolical deeds is to sabotage Jack (Colin Ferguson) and Allison's (Salli Richardson-Whitfield) newfound happiness. "I get to be bad Allison a little bit," Salli revealed to us. The veteran villain manipulating Allison "doesn't work alone," though, Colin told us. "[It's] a team of people—it's a whole organization, it's a plan."
Love, Eureka Style: Allison's victimization by that Bad Person and the evil conglomerate will strain her relationship with Jack, but at least Salli can confirm that we don't have any more love triangles to worry about. "No," she laughs. "I have no more men!" Colin adds, "We definitely make steps forward this year, which is great." However, their workplace romance "sort of creates all sorts of other problems," adds Colin, with the happy (for us) result of introducing some beloved guest stars: Kids in the Hall's Dave Foley and Wallace Shawn, who, Colin teases, is "definitely connected to Jack and Allison's attempts at a relationship." The diminutive Princess Bride and Gossip Girl scene stealer, who appears in two episodes this season, also returns again for season five, Colin revealed. Inconceivable!
Meanwhile, Neil Grayston is getting a lot of action this season in his two roles as Fargo and SARAH, Sheriff Carter's smart house. Despite SARAH getting cold feet about her wedding to robot Deputy Andy, Colin Ferguson promises, "There is a future for those two. Every relationship goes through problems, real or not—I guess [I mean] organic or not. But they're a great couple." In addition to flirting with his flirtation with newcomes Holly (Felicia Day), Neil's human character, Fargo, enjoys a full-on bromance with Zane (Niall Matter), as a result of being trapped together in a space capsule in tonight's episode. (Speaking of romance, the boys' bond helps to reignite Zane's romance with Jo [Erica Cerra].) "When we were stuck inside that capsule, I think that was three full days of [filming] just me and Niall," Neil said about his real-life buddy, "so it was really good times—really fun." Romance, bromance and robomance—only in Eureka!
Welcome Party: Both Eureka and W13 are expanding their casts this season. Fargo's (Neil Grayston) consternation at the arrival of brilliant but quirky Holly yields to adoration, especially once he discovers the real reason for her visit to Global Dynamics. But Fargo has a romantic rival—the prickly rogue Dr. Parrish (Wil Wheaton): "It's a tug of war of who will win her heart," Neil told us, "which happens throughout the season. [Parrish] is just about as neurotic as Fargo, so Fargo definitely has some competition there." "Both Wil and Felicia don't feel like guest stars anymore," Neil adds, promising that both will return next season. "They feel like part of the cast because they've been around for so long."
