    Funny and Clever

    With the exception of one moment where Allison behaves in an entirely catty and immature manner, Jack of All Trades is an exceptionally funny and clever episode. Centered around Carter, Eureka residents swap minds/bodies with hilarious results. Colin Ferguson's combination of physical humor and on-point delivery is perfection. What makes this episode laugh out loud funny is that he is not the only actor who gets to explore the "living in someone else's skin" humor angle and everyone rises to the occasion. EVerything the viewer already knows about the characters is played for laughs. While the episode advances the final season's story arc quite nicely, the clever humor is such that Jack of All Trades can be easily watched and enjoyed on its own any day and any time. Just a terrifically funny episode.

    Good one finally

    Ah I sure miss the episodes like this where there is crazy fun and not a lot of unbelievable soap opera. Wish they did more like this.

    This episode (as well as most) made me LOL!

    I am finding that Eureka is one of the better shows I have gotten into for a long time. Zany and unrealistic as it is it's so much fun to watch. The characters are fabulous. Jack Carter actor is hysterical. Excellent comedian and does not mind coming off looking like an ass or a dummy. He's a great actor. All of them are. All the actors add something special in each of the characters. I highly recommend Eureka if you want something a light, easy, funny and sometimes hysterical show to watch. Although this is a family show there are moments when there is a touch of adult comedy. So once in a blue moon there may be just a slight inappropriate joke. You'll see what I mean when you watch it. But very well delivered. Not vulgar the least. Again very funny show.

    • Trivia
      Colin Ferguson (Sheriff Jack Carter) stated that they had "no prep time" for this episode and started filming this at 11am directly after wrapping the previous episode (Friendly Fire (2012)). All impressions were done "after working with people for six years". Fargo was the easiest and Zane was the hardest to do.
