It’s like the geek match-up of the decade. Not only are Felicia Day and Wil Wheaton playing opposite each other on The Guild, they will also be involved with each other in some sort of love triangle in their guest roles on SyFy’s Eureka. Stars of the Eureka/Warehouse 13 crossover, Neil Grayston (who plays the comedic geek cutie Douglas Fargo on Eureka) and Allison Scagliotti (who plays the edgey computer genius hottie and junior Warehouse agent, Claudia Donovan on Warehouse 13) reveal this news in a recent interview.
Questions posed by our friend Kevin Bachelder, of TuningIntoSciFiTV
Q: Thinking ahead we now have heard that Felicia Day is going to be joining Eureka come the second half of the season, so I’m curious if you’ve started to work the writers to see if maybe there can be a, you know, Fargo-Felicia character hook up.
Neil Grayston: Yes. I see. I don’t really know exactly what her character is coming in to do. I know it has something to do with Wil Wheaton coming back as well. But all I’ve heard is that there’s a possible love triangle in the works. I can only assume it just involves me because, I don’t know, I can only assume.
Allison Scagliotti: Because Fargo is a player.
Neil Grayston: Yes, you know. He’s got all his business suits now, he’s got to do something and look fancy with them. But, no, like thinking of that I actually – I only met Felicia the night of the Syfy party and she’s so nice. She’s a super nice person. We only chatted for about 20 minutes or so but it was like all right, this is going to be fun, you’re going to be on our show and Will Wheaton is going to come on and this is going to be like a nerd heaven kind of thing over here, so I’m very excited for that.

I really hope Fargo will be the third leg of this triangle. The writers are doing a great job with challenging the character of Fargo this year. His scenes with an irreverent scientist played by Wil Wheaton were fun and I hope to see more grow from that. Look at me getting all serious in this Shakedown!
Fargo is a really fun and cute character. Put Claudia into the equation and wha-bam! New spin-off show! Hope you guys caught the first of the crossover episodes for Eureka and Warehouse 13. If not, it will be on SyFy’s Rewind soon enough! (Tip: Also check your On Demand if you’ve got it.) Eureka is on tomorrow night!
Watch Warehouse 13 on SyFy, Tuesdays 9/8pm C and Eureka on SyFy, Fridays at 9/8pm C.
