I’ve searched the Syfy channel, TV Guide, IMDB, and the SDMB and can’t find out if an episode of Eureka aired on Friday, September 3, 2010. I can’t get into this show, but hubby likes it, so I programmed the DVR to record all episodes of Eureka (new and re-runs). We were out of town Sept. 2-5. After our return home, upon checking for recorded shows, there wasn’t a Eureka episode for Sept. 3. We’re not having a quarrel over this, but he has mentioned it a few times, insinuating that I screwed up the recording somehow. I told him I had programmed the DVR to record all episodes, which tells me that NO episode of Eureka aired that evening. Can you provide a link to a site that shows Eureka did not air Friday, Sept. 3, 2010? Thanks.

**Eureka** did not air last Friday. Rest easy. Tonight is the mid-season finale.

[Official Eureka Writer’s Blog entry](http://eurekaunscripted.typepad.com/blog/2010/09/the-mid-season-end-is-nigh.html) explaining that they didn’t air an episode that day due to the holiday weekend. They took a one-week break so the mid-season finale could air without distractions and to a full audience. Hope this helps!

A good site for when shows air is [TV Countdown](http://www.tvcountdown.com/). And [here’s _Eureka’s_ page](http://www.tvcountdown.com/?c22=1) detailing the dates, times, and episode titles of recent and upcoming airings, if any.
