The sleepy Pacific Northwest town of Eureka is hiding a mysterious secret. The government has been relocating the world's geniuses and their families to this rustic town for years where innovation and chaos have lived hand in hand.

When the denizens of the town unleash an unknown scientific creation, Carter jumps in to try to restore order and consequently learns of one of the country's best kept secrets.

This would be the show in the shared Warehouse 13 universe that Sci-Fi made when it was still making stellar original programming that could appeal to the entire family. And, like Warehouse 13, it walks that line between adult and child perfectly and in the processes creates a show that everyone in the family will be entertained by despite their age. However, unlike Warehouse 13, Eureka is heavy Science Fiction. It takes a scientific dream community ala Project Y and Los Alamos, only focuses it on a community just as top secret but less ominous, less military, and more family and community orientated than the town that gave us the Fat Man and Little Boy. And, then it takes all that science, and throws it into the hands of the everyman sheriff to clean up after the experiments go wrong. So it is sort of formulaic, but it is formula with an over-arching seasonal plot, and an overarching series plot that makes it a little more in-depth than the monster of the week fair. And, at it's heart, it is just a fun show that is made to entertain. And that is what it does.

Another show which started brightly then quickly degenerated into slapstick comedy rubbish. Jack Carter, the main star of the show, is bright, intelligent and methodical in the pilot of this series. But quickly the showrunners turned him into a butt of the jokes dullard! Why do so many series go down this route?
