Discuss thread names, here. This thread is probably only going to be temporary.

Gotta bone up on my Science jokes to do this!

I mean how many times can you toss "Einstein", "Hawking" and "Newton" into a joke thread names? Gotta mix it up a bit with stuff like Niels Bohr, Max Planck, and Erwin Schrödinger!

I'd like to point to to Imaginary Thread Titles, where I contemplated this very topic.

I was thinking something like "What's in the vial?" for the speculation thread.

What about "Global Dynamics: Characters of Eureka" for a subforum outside of General Gabbery?

I just realized that Salli Richardson/Allison doesn't have a thread and I can't think of a clever title. Anyone have any ideas for one?

Can someone come up with something clever that uses "Midnight Soul" for Salli Richardson?

Salli Richardson as Allison Blake: Who Will Soothe Her 'Midnight Soul?'
And as a fallback, perhaps "Dr. Midnight Soul"

I was going to suggest something like "I Like My Men Tall, Dark, and Purple" but I just googled what Midnight Soul is and I have to throw my vote to that.

Maybe I need a link to the meaning/relevance of Midnight Soul, because I checked out midnightsoul.com and the description was,

Midnight Soul is dedicated to underground house music...

which, wouldn't that be music for S.A.R.A.H.?

Midnight Soul is the name of a Time Life music collection that Salli Richardson and her husband hawk at 2 am.  It's an hour long, highly suggestive infomercial where they say a lot of stuff like "slow jam," "smooth vibes," and "deep sounds."  I tried to find a clip but I can't.  Any clips I found had been removed for copyright violation, which seems a little weird.  Wouldn't having your infomercial go viral be a good thing?

The first time I saw that, it was definitely a mini-WTF moment.

I'm thinking that Larry needs his own thread, unless he's been written out. Though Fargo vs. Larry as archenemies is too drama-rich to just drop. Are there any good Larry quotes? Either said by him or about him? But, otherwise, here's my (not-so-clever) ideas:
  • Christopher Jacot as Larry: Fargo is My Sworn Enemy
  • Christopher Jacot as Larry: My Secret Desire Is To Take Over the World
  • Christopher Jacot as Larry: Fargo, I Will Get My Revenge

I think Vincent needs his own thread.

And probably not needing their own thread but I love me some random townies. My particular favorite ar the twins who I thougt I hadn't seen at all in season 2 but are in the musical number so hopefully they'll scoot by on their Segways in season 3.

Yeah, but since he was caught effing with Martha, his career at GD has probably plateaued. Seriously, though, I don't think his ambition was to run the world. I think his ambition was to work for the person who ran the world. I think that's why he sees Fargo as the competition. We'll see if Larry's still around.

I think Vincent needs his own thread.

That's why I put the if not written out part. Though, I could see Larry getting a proverbial slap on the wrist and Eva bringing Larry back "on probation" so she can manipulate him - get intel on Carter and the others, and what-not.

I see the 'Questions' thread still has a blank to be filled in. I'd suggest something witty about Henry's memory eraser, but ironically I can't remember what it was called. Instead how about "Rectifying the GABA Blockage: Questions From the New and/or Forgetful"

Love this one:

Which I think I like better than what I was thinking: "Why I don't live in Eureka: Questions..etc"

and also:

I just got the commentary podcast for episode 301 via iTunes. Do we need a thread for those, and if so, what do we call it?

Maybe the episode thread for Random Townies (and I agree we need one) can be brought to us by Degree?

I like that one.

But I think I like yours better.
