Nearly everyone in Eureka works for 'Global Dynamics', a huge advanced research facility responsible for the development of all major technological breakthroughs in the last 50 years.
Each episode features a mysterious accidental or intentional misuse of technology which is then solved by the town 'Sheriff Jack Carter' with the help of town scientists.
There is also a story arc concerning a mysterious artifact that has had an appearance in both the first and second seasons.
"Eureka" was created by Andrew Cosby and Paglia, produced by Universal Media Studios.
“Eureka remains a steadfast performer for Syfy with its superb cast and perfect blend of drama, comedy and eye candy," said Stern.
