TV show description:
At the end of World War II, the U.S. government created the top-secret community of Eureka, somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. The nation’s most brilliant scientists and their families are relocated there so that they can develop their inventions in seclusion.

While driving his rebellious teenage daughter Zoe (Jordan Hinson) back to her mother’s home in Los Angeles, Deputy U.S. Marshal Jack Carter (Colin Ferguson) crashes his car and stumbles upon the town. Soon after, a faulty experiment cripples the Eureka sheriff and Carter is quickly drafted to fill the vacancy. Despite being the least intelligent resident (in a town full of super-geniuses), Carter’s street smarts and wit repeatedly save the town, and even the world.

Other Eureka residents include brilliant and sexy psychotherapist Beverly Barlowe (Debrah Farentino); jack-of-all-trades and engineering master Henry Deacon (Joe Morton); biological specialist Jim Taggart (Matt Frewer); Deputy Sheriff Josefina “Jo” Lupo (Erica Cerra); Pentagon liason Allison Blake (Salli Richardson), Allison’s estranged husband, Nobel Prize-winning mathematician Nathan Stark (Ed Quinn); and Nathan’s excessively-curious assistant, Douglas Fargo (Neil Grayston).
