This is a scfi program that's both comedy and drama. Jack Carter is a U.S. Marshall transporting his runaway daughter back to his ex-wife in LA. Their car gets into an accident and they walk into the town of Eureka where everyone there is a genius. While waiting for his car to be repaired he inserts himself into a case of a missing boy and after figuring out where the boy is he's offered a job as the town's sheriff. Although Jack is of average intelligence he's called upon to solve a number of incidents, many of them humorous, the town's geniuses can't solve.
