Eureka



For years, the government has been secretly relocating the world's geniuses (and their families) to the idyllic Pacific Northwest town of Eureka, where daily life straddles the line between unprecedented innovation and total chaos. When U.S. Marshal Jack Carter (Ferguson) wrecks his car and becomes stranded in Eureka, he quickly realizes that all is not what it seems. After the town's eccentric inhabitants unleash a brainchild with a catastrophic aftermath, Carter steps in to restore order and consequently is let in on one of our country's best-kept secrets.

There is always something futuristic and sci-fi going on, cool gadgets, lot's of humor and inside jokes. Each season has a great plot, which is mystic and interesting, and you don't always know who the "bad guys" are, and who's the "good guys". for example, one thing that happened in the pilot episode of Eureka wasn't explained until the season finale of season 2. and the very first thing that happened in season 1, the pilot episode, has yet to be explained. it's so mystical and interesting, and even though it has some so-called "filler" episodes (episodes that won't affect the plot), it still is funny, spectacular and interesting. it has a variety of cast, with a lot of unkown actors. which is a good thing, because it makes the show a bit more original (if you haven't seen the characters before, you cannot compare them to earlier work etc. ).
