17
18Jack Carter is a U.S. Marshal who reluctantly ends up as Sheriff of Eureka. Jack is consistently dumbfounded by the wonders Eureka produces, as well as its propensity to produce things that often threaten the entire town, if not the world. Despite being a man of average intelligence in a town full of geniuses, Jack's admittedly simplistic ideas and ability to make intuitive connections between seemingly disparate events often save the day. (This is in contrast to the other residents of Eureka, who, being stereotypical scientists, tend to over-complicate things and get lost in meantime).
19-----
20* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler: The series ends with Allison telling Jack she's pregnant.]]
21* BelligerentSexualTension: With Allison for a few seasons. With Tess from the moment she shows up. With Nathan, in most scenes they share.
22* BerserkButton: Threatening to harm Zoe or Allison, or anybody else he's close to will usually elicit this response.
23* BigBrotherInstinct: Towards Fargo, believe it or not. When things get their worst for the him, Jack is always there to help the little guy.
24* BigDamnHeroes: He does it a lot, being a former U.S. Marshal helps.
25* BookDumb: His street smarts usually save the day after [[MadScientist scientists]] messed up.
26* TheCallKnowsWhereYouLive: After his accidental adventure in Eureka in the pilot, he went back to his job as a US Marshal, only to be offered the "promotion" to Sheriff of Eureka.
27* CallingMeALogarithm: With his barely-above-average intelligence and layman's grasp of physics, Jack frequently feels insulted when his genius friends throw around terms like "p-brane" and "smart asphalt".
28* ChronicHeroSyndrome: [[spoiler: Summed up perfectly in the finale, where he jumps through a wormhole in order to close it;]]
29--> '''Carter''': This is what I do!
30* TheChewToy: Put through the wringer on a daily basis trying to clean up or fix the incredibly ludicrous ways Eureka's experiments go wrong.
31* CuttingTheKnot: Has a talent for finding the simplest way out of a problem, which the people of Eureka learn to value. Often subverted, Carter's first suggestion is often along the lines of turn it off or cut the power, and it has to be explained why that won't work, necessitating finding the right tool (or just a bigger tool) with which to cut the proverbial knot. Sometimes outright averted: there is no simple solution, and Carter's plan is just as complex and convoluted as the chain of events with led to the problem in the first palce.
32-->'''Carter''': Have you tried just shutting it off?\
33'''Stark''': ''(completely deadpan)'' Turn it off. Why didn't I think of that? Fargo, turn the machine off.\
34''(awkward pause)''\
35'''Carter''': ''(realizing he's being insulted)'' Oh, and ''that's'' a stupid question?
36* {{Determinator}}: Carter powers through injuries that would lay anyone else up for weeks, plows into the nexus of the latest scientific weirdness to shut it down, and when he's on a case, no amount of threats, bullying, bureaucratic red tape, or snark about his intelligence will stop him from solving it.
37* HeroicBSOD: When Grant started to mess up the timeline "again" [[spoiler: Allison got KilledOffForReal, until Jack and Grant fixed it]].
38* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Henry. When Henry announced he was going to leave Eureka in season 1, Jack thought about doing the same, not wanting to live in Eureka without him, and he seemed to be the only one to visit him in prison.
39* HiddenDepths: He might appear average and is looked down upon by many scientists, but he has a very keen intuition which helps him identify the problem at hand and resolve the situation.
40* ImpossiblyHighIQ: Averted. Jack's IQ is 111, which is on the high side of average, and perfectly consistent with his portrayal as BookDumb but fairly clever. However, fans have speculated he's smarter than that, because he was a lazy student and didn't really take the test seriously.
41* LeeroyJenkins: What most if not all the townsfolk thought of him when he first took the job.
42* LikeBrotherAndSister: Zigzagged. Though his relationship with Jo is very siblinglike - they get on each others nerves, love to watch the other suffer, but would drop everything to help the other - the algorithm of the matrix the Astreus Crew was trapped in calculated it would be highly likely for them to become romantically involved with their respective partners gone. This forced them to confront their relationship and admit that they ''have'' considered each other as romantic prospects, though they are BetterAsFriends.
43* MadeOfIron: Nothing, and I mean nothing is enough to keep him down for long.
44* MrFanservice: Crosses over with NakedPeopleAreFunny. Carter repeatedly ends up naked/{{shirtless|Scene}}, which is usually very embarrassing for him.
45* NiceGuy: He's generally heroic, selfless and tries to help out the rather difficult townspeople.
46* OnlySaneMan: In a company town full of {{Mad Scientist}}s, it's the U.S. Marshal sheriff who has any common sense.
47* PapaWolf: Do not mess with Jack's daughter; he takes it ''very'' personally.
48* PlotArmor: Lampshaded by Andy, who notes that the odds of survival are better when Jack's around.
49* RedOniBlueOni: Jack is red, usually against Allison or Henry's blue. Jo's usually the red to his blue, though.
50* SeenItAll: In the pilot, he spots himself and Zoe driving in the opposite direction and is so startled it contributes to the subsequent car crash that lands him in Eureka. In the last episode they see it again from the other side and he just shrugs it off.
51-->'''Carter:''' We'll deal with it in the morning.
52* SmarterThanYouLook: Jack is ''not'' stupid. He's actually got a way of thinking that allows him to instantly identify the problem at hand. More often that not the scientific genii dismiss his initial idea, only to later to realise that it was the ''correct'' solution all along.
53* SummonEverymanHero: "Hello, I'm sheriff Carter. I'm gonna save the day with my everyman logic!"
54* UnluckyEverydude: In a town full of geniuses, he often thinks of himself as this. Stark never really helped in that regard.
55--> '''Stark''': Yes he said invisibling.
56* UnresolvedSexualTension: Has loads of this with Allison for most of the series, until [[spoiler:it eventually gets resolved.]]
57* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Allison. [[spoiler: They do.]]

62!!!'''Played by''':Creator/JordanHinson
63[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zoe_carter.jpg]]
64
65Jack's rebellious teenage daughter. Unlike her father, she is intelligent enough to keep up with the town's residents (her IQ is 157), yet like her father, possesses the street smarts most of the town's residents do not. She longs to be a medical doctor, and with the help of Henry's recommendation letter, receives an early acceptance to Harvard's medical program. She dates Lucas but in the altered timeline, they broke up when Lucas moved to Geneva, and she is now showing interest in Zane. She is also a bit more mature and responsible after her time at Harvard.
66-----
67* BrattyTeenageDaughter: Eventually grows out of it and becomes closer to her father.
68* CommutingOnABus: Beginning with Season 4, thanks to early admittance to Harvard on a medical scholarship.
69* DaddysGirl: Despite the fact they often snark at each other, Zoe is very close to her dad. {{Lampshaded}} by Beverly who tells her she has daddy issues.
70* DeadpanSnarker: She can keep up with her dad in snark-offs, and almost always has a witty retort to anyone who comes at her verbally.
71* MilitaryBrat: Marshall Brat, actually. Her dad being a US Marshall and often away working cases caused strife at home, but Zoe's picked up several skills from, as she puts it, having a "cop dad."
72* NeverMyFault: Said that a lot in the first few seasons, usually after she messed up badly.
73* NonActionGuy: Most of the time. As the series continued, she slips into ActionGirl more - probably gets it from her father's side of the family.
74* NonActionSnarker: Man does she love to snark.
75* PerkyGoth: Had this style for the first two seasons.
76* ReformedCriminal: She started out as {{Delinquent}}, involved in things like theft and credit card fraud, but she reformed and has left her criminal ways behind her by the time of season 2.
77* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: And always ends up with a teenaged crazy, go figure.
78* SmarterThanYouLook: Ridiculously so. She's able to hold her own academically in Eureka ''and'' hide her smarts from her dad.

81[[folder:Dr. Henry Deacon]]
82!!Henry Deacon
83!!!'''Played by''': Creator/JoeMorton
84[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/henry_deacon.jpg]]
85
86Henry is the town's jack-of-all-trades. Although, like most residents of Eureka, he is a brilliant multidisciplined scientist, Henry has ethical objections to the kind of research conducted at Global Dynamics, preferring employment as the town's mechanic. Henry's assistance is often invaluable in defusing the situations the experiments in town create. During Season 3, he was elected mayor as a write-in candidate. Following the change in timeline in season 4, he is suddenly married and is trying to keep the timeline shift a secret. Late into the 4th season, he confides in his "wife" after he realizes he is beginning to fall in love with her.
87-----
88* AbsentMindedProfessor: Toned down, but the pilot definitely portrays him as such, getting wrapped up enough in his work he forgets little things, like not letting the outside world know Eureka is more than it appears. Throughout the series, he's still very jovial with a tendency to throw himself wholeheartedly into whatever he's working on at the moment.
89* AlmightyJanitor: Henry runs the mechanic shop where most car repairs happen (offscreen), and as such is typically seen in grease-stained overalls. He's also the coroner, road repair man, telephone repair man, the entirety of the fire department, general maintainence mechanic and engineer, and nearly any other odd job that needs doing in a given episode. He's also one of, if not the, smartest person in all of Eureka, conversant with many different scientific fields and often works closely with Jack on whatever catastrophe is barreling towards Eureka this week.
90* AntiHero: For almost all of season 2, as went to great lengths to pursue his own agenda regarding the Artifact, which was responsible for Kim's death.
91* BunnyEarsLawyer: Henry's just too knowledgeable about too much stuff, and too critical to keeping Eureka running on a day-to-day basis (never mind assisting Jack with the crisis-of-the-week) for him to ever be kicked out, and the times he considers leaving Eureka are very tense. When not keeping the high-tech infrastructure of the town running or handling the science side of an investigation with Jack, he's usually puttering on his own experiments in his garage. Henry is most typically seen in grease-stained brown overalls with a velcro patch where he can slap on a badge for whatever job he's doing at the moment.
92* TheConscience: Always used to say that science should only be used for furthering mankind's understanding of the universe. Even after his Kim-related season 2 breakdown, he still champions responsible use of science.
93* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:Kim's death caused him to have a HeroicBsod. He illegally travelled back in time to [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong prevent her death]], creating a TimeParadox.]]
94* FallenHero: In Season 2, as he grieves for Kim and hatches something uncomfortably close to an evil scheme revolving around the Artifact.
95* HappilyMarried: To Grace. After falling in love with her and telling her about the AlternateTimeline, they developed a happy relationship, and even renewed their vows.
96* MrExposition: He's the guy Jack usually goes to for technobabble of the week, since he's also fluent in non-technobabble.
97* NonActionGuy: Though he graduates to a full-on action-guy quite a bit early on.
98* OddFriendship: Jack is closer to Henry then pretty much anyone else in Eureka, and the feeling is mutual. Jack is of strictly average intelligence and has no scientific education or urge to develop such, Henry is the smartest person in a town full of smart people and conversant with a wide array of scientific disciplines. They bond over Henry preferring to keep up a blue-collar lifestyle as the town's mechanic (among many other things). It's also likely Henry's past as a teacher means he's uniquely suited to explain the current situation to Jack, then watch as Jack's own unique mind takes that information and arrives at an unexpected solution.
99* OmnidisciplinaryScientist: Whenever Jack has a question about science, Henry will be able to give him an answer. Justfied both in that Henry is one of the older members of the cast and so has had time become conversant with multiple fields of study, as well as his oft-alluded to past as a teacher, where he would be gaining and passing on knowledge to his students (among them Nathan Stark). Henry's also frequently implied to be ''the'' smartest person in a town full of people reknowned for being smart.
100* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: During season 1 he's a mechanic, but rarely actually works on cars unless things are slow. After he's elected mayor of Eureka, while there are a couple of instances where his status as mayor is relevant to the plot (e.g. preventing the [=DoD=] from firing Jack) most of the time viewers could be forgiven for forgetting he even had the job.
101* ScienceHero: Often saves the day with science. He's also concerned with using science in the right way, which puts him in conflict with [[MadScientist Mad Scientists]] with ForScience approaches.
102* TheSmartGuy: Often implied to be ''the'' smartest person in a town designed for smart people, and typically works closely with Jack to unravel the latest scientific mystery.
103* {{Technobabble}}: Zig-zags this, which is one of the reasons for him being so crucial to Jack's efforts. He can talk jargon with any big brain in Eureka, explaining to them how they screwed up, then literally turn around and give Jack an explanation he can parse to comprehend the problem.

110
111Allison is a Department of Defense agent who acts as the liaison between Eureka and the Federal Government, and later becomes the director of Global Dynamics. She is always at the forefront of any dilemma that might arise. Although she works for the [=DoD=], she has two [=PhD=]s and an MD. Allison is also raising her son Kevin, an autistic youth whose father died when he was still a baby, and Jenna, the daughter she conceived with Nathan shortly before his death/disappearance. After the change in the timeline, Kevin is no longer autistic and she never became director of GD; she is, instead, head of GD's medical science division.
112-----
113* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler: The series ends with Allison telling Jack she's pregnant]].
114* BelligerentSexualTension: With Jack. It's even [[LampshadeHanging a plot point]] that's pointed out by ''EVERYONE''.
115* CartwrightCurse: In-universe, she fears she has this. [[spoiler: Kevin's father died before he was born, her ex-husband Nathan Stark died literally the day they were going to get re-married, and she later falls for Jack Carter, who's job is to put his life on the line once a week to keep Eureka from becoming a mile-deep crater.]]
116* MsFanservice: Definitely has her moments, such as stripping down to some very provocative underwear to try and seduce Jack in "Purple Haze," and a few naked shower and/or decontamination scenes.
117* NiceGirl: Kind-hearted and fairly patient, despite the other scientist's quirks.
118* NotSoAboveItAll: She really seems to enjoy participating in Baseball games when she gets the chance.
119* TheReliableOne: Unlike most of the scientists in Eureka, she usually focuses on the problems and tries to keep things sane, rather than getting caught up in her own projects.
120* ScienceHero: Like most of the town, though particularly pronounced as director of G.D
121* {{Tsundere}}: Type B. She is unflappably courteous and kind to everyone she meets... except Nathan.
122* UnresolvedSexualTension: She and Jack dance around some budding feelings for each other for quite some time. [[spoiler:They end up resolving it late in the series.]]
123* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Jack. [[spoiler: They do.]]
124* {{Workaholic}}: As Zoe comments, she's the kind of Type A bride to work on her ''wedding day''.

131
132A tough, no-nonsense cop with a love of firearms. After a brief fling with Taggart, she later develops a relationship with Zane. Zane proposes to her in the Season 4 premiere, but before she can answer him, time is altered to where the two of them never dated, and in fact cannot stand each other. In the new timeline, she is Head of Security at Global Dynamics, her role as deputy taken by the android Deputy Andy.
133-----
134* AgeGapRomance: With Taggert.
135* BelligerentSexualTension: With Carter, Taggart, Zane, and even ''Fargo''.
136* BerserkButton: Just about anything can get Jo mad, and don't you ''dare'' call her by her full name...
137* BetaCouple: to Jack and Allison, with Zane.
138* BrainyBrunette: She's not a super-genius scientist, but she's still highly intelligent.
139* CoolBigSis: Has this dynamic with Zoe. In "All That Glitters" she tells Jack she grew up with three brothers and always wanted a sister when she offers to chaperone a party Zoe wants to have while Jack is out of town.
140* CrackPairing: With Taggart. At least, that's how it's treated initially. Later it's treated as just another romance in a wacky town.
141* {{Determinator}}: Jo can power through damn near anything to see her mission completed.
142* GeekyTurnOn: When everyone starts sharing dreams in season 2, it turns out the Zorro dream was actually ''hers'', leaving Jo naturally horrified that on some level, she's actually secretly attracted to ''Fargo''!
143* GunNut: She ''loves'' guns. In the pilot it is shown that reassembling guns is a hobby of hers, and she is very passionate about guns, very happy whenever she gets to use one.
144* HiddenDepths: She's a LadyOfWar, but she still likes girly things like dancing and Cosmo, though she hides both.
145* IHaveBrothers: Growing up with brothers she wanted to keep up with, she developed a lot of traditionally male skills.
146* LeavingYouToFindMyself: She pulls one of these on Zane, after falling back into a relationship with him after the [[spoiler: timeline shift]]. She goes on a spirit walk instead of joining him on the mission to Titan.
147* LadyOfWar: And a very scary lady of war she is at that. She's a badass fighter, with great skills in hand-to-hand combat as well as weapons, always looking put-together and graceful when she's kicking ass.
148* LikeBrotherAndSister: Zigzagged. Tough her relationship with Jack is very siblinglike - they get on each others nerves, love to watch the other suffer, but would drop everything to help the other - the algorithm of the matrix the Astreus Crew was trapped in calculated it would be highly likely for them to become romantically involved with their respective partners gone. This forced them to confront their relationship and admit that they ''have'' considered each other as romantic prospects, though they are BetterAsFriends.
149* LoveAtFirstSight: Well, at least infatuation at first sight [[spoiler:with Taggart]].
150* AMotherToHerMen: It's not brought up often, but as head of GD security she has moments when she shows how much she cares about the men under her command. When some of them were critically injured during an episode she watched over them in the infirmary, stating "I've got four guys who can't be moved, so I can't be moved."
151* NoGuyWantsAnAmazon: It's not easy for a badass lady like her to find a boyfriend, especially in a town full of professional nerds. They're intimidated by her ActionGirl nature, she's intimidated by their off-the-charts intelligence.
152* ThatCameOutWrong: Jo has a bad case of "foot in mouth disease."
153** In the Pilot:
154--->'''Sheriff Cobb''': (hangs up the phone) That was Ned Carver. He claims aliens abducted some of his cattle again, so... \
155'''Jo''': Tell him to call me when they move on to anal probes.\
156[Cobb and Zoe stare]\
157'''Jo''': Wait, um... that didn't come out right.
158** In "A Night At Global Dynamics:
159--->'''Zane''': We'll use SARAH to slip into the back-door of GD.\
160'''Fargo''': Uh, we?\
161'''Zane''': Once a back-door link is established, there's nothing I won't have access to.\
162'''Fargo''': Uh, I think you mean there will be nothing that '''''I''''' have access to.\
163'''Jo''': Boys, there is plenty of back-door access for everyone!\
164(''awkward pause'')\
165'''Jo''': That didn't come out right.
166* TragicKeepsake: After the [[spoiler: timeline changes, Jo keeps the engagement ring that the original Zane proposed to her with, as a reminder of their relationship, seeing as in this reality, they never dated and don't even like each other]].
167* {{Tsundere}}: Towards Zane, and most characters for that matter. She's mostly a badass Tsuntsun, but once she gets close to someone she softens up slightly. If those people are hurt in anyway though, her Dere side comes out and she is very soft-spoken and caring.
168* WhenSheSmiles: It makes you want to smile with her.
169* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Zane [[spoiler: after their relationship is erased. It clear she still loves him, and he is attracted to her, but she is unwilling to rekindle their romance, and he doesn't even know there is was any relationship to rekindle in the first place]].
170* WorkingWithTheEx: Has to work very closely with [[spoiler: Zane after their relationship is erased from reality. Of course, she is the only one of them who remembers this relationship.]]
171* WrenchWench: Not a mechanic but, she knows how to assemble and disassemble her weapons in a snap.

176!!!'''Played by''': Creator/NeilGrayston
177[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/douglas_fargo.jpg]]
178
179A junior scientist who's always been treated dismissively by his peers. Accident-prone, he more often than not ends up a victim of the disasters befalling the town. He has also caused a fair share of the problems. Neil Grayston also provides the voice of S.A.R.A.H. ('''S'''elf '''A'''ctuated '''R'''esidential '''A'''utomated '''H'''abitat), the bunker home Jack and Zoe live in. In the alternate timeline, he is head of GD, and not well-liked by the staff because of his alternate's imposing and intimidating manner. He has difficulty in this new role as his alternate was a domineering egomaniac, an act he has trouble pulling off. Even so, the job has begun to transform him into a more decisive and capable leader as the weight of responsibility has forced him to stand up to other GD employees, the Department of Defense, and military generals.
180-----
181%%* ActionSurvivor: A classic example.
182* AmazonChaser: Had a crush on Jo for quite a while.
183* BadassBookworm: What he becomes when he really puts his mind to it.
184* BumblingSidekick: To Stark originally, though he gets a little better.
185* ButtMonkey: His face should be on the tropes page. In particular in the first three seasons he inadvertently caused every other accident, and managed to get himself in a number of embarrassing situations.
186* CelebrityCrush: His crush on Creator/SarahMichelleGellar (in particular in her role as [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy]]) comes up frequently, for instance when he names Carter's smart house [[FunWithAcronyms S.A.R.A.H]] or uses "Douglas the vampire slayer" as a passphrase.
187* CharacterDevelopment: He goes from the lovable BumblingSidekick /ButtMonkey in early seasons to an actually fairly competent head of GD in the last two seasons.
188* CluelessChickMagnet: He's actually had many a pretty little lady after him.
189* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: In the second half of the fourth season, Fargo starts to step up to his role as head of Global Dynamics and even manages to improvise his way out of an inadvertent death trap when he and Zane end up in a launched rocket with ''no'' controls or communications.
190%%* FishOutOfWater: Everywhere he goes.
191* HiddenDepths: He doesn't always do the sensible thing, he always wants to do the right thing.
192-->'''Stark:''' I knew you had it in you, Fargo.\
193'''Fargo:''' I didn't.
194* PluckyComicRelief: Always [[WhatDoesThisButtonDo pressing the wrong button]] and getting into embarrassing situations, he's a major source of comic relief.
195* TheSmartGuy: For all that thing tend to go wrong when he's involved, he's actually very smart. This is played up more after Stark's disappearance and especially in season 4 onwards.
196* SharpDressedMan: He wears a suit like Stark's in the new timeline.
197* UndyingLoyalty: To Stark. This is one of the things about him, which is strange considering the fact that Stark's always been a jerk towards him.
198%%* TheUnfavorite: And he damn well knows it.
199* WhatDoesThisButtonDo: Frequently. His GD personnel file contains the phrase 'inappropriately pushed button' 37 times.

204!!!'''Played by''': Creator/EdQuinn
205[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nathan_stark.jpg]]
206
207One of Eureka's top scientists. He and Jack are frequently at odds, though both respect each other. He is formerly married to Allison, and they rekindled their relationship in the second season. They were supposed to get remarried in the third season, but he dematerializes while saving the world from a time paradox on the day of their wedding, an event that apparently still occurred in Season 4's alternate timeline.
208-----
209* BigBrotherWorship: From Fargo, who admires him and looks up to him, regardless of how dismissive Stark is of him.
210%%* CovertPervert
211* ForScience: That's his justification for some of the things he does and what he allows some of the other scientists to get away with.
212* GoneHorriblyRight: His research into the Artifact.
213* HeroicSacrifice: Saved the universe knowing full well it would cost him his life. It happened on the day of his wedding. In fact, it was at the moment he should have been saying his vows.
214* InsufferableGenius: In a town full of geniuses, he is still near the top of the heap and he is fully aware of this.
215-->'''Carter''': "Does your ego ''fit'' in this ''building''?!\
216'''Stark''': ''[nonchalantly checks the ceiling's height]''
217* KilledOffForReal: Or, displaced in time for real. Don't really know for sure.
218* MadScientist: And unlike just about all the other scientists in Eureka, not in a very nice way.
219* MarriedToTheJob: Cited as a major factor for his divorce to Allison.
220* MeaningfulName: He's named after [[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark]] of all people.
221* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Though not really evil, just morally ambiguous... really ''really'' ambiguous.
222%%* RedOniBlueOni: Blue to Jack's red.
223* TheRival: Is this to Jack. Though after the LoveTriangle with Allison is resolved, they move towards VitriolicBestBuds.
224* SharpDressedMan: Usually wears a suit, and looks very good in it.
225* TheSmartGuy: Like most people in Eureka, he's highly intelligent. His smarts are often crucial in solving the disaster of the week.
226%%* SugarAndIcePersonality

232!!!'''Played by''': Creator/NiallMatter
233[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zane_donovan.jpg]]
234
235A rebellious genius, recruited in the second season as an alternative to imprisonment after being arrested for fraud (allegedly causing the New York Stock Exchange to crash). He also develops a relationship with Jo Lupo shortly after his arrival in Eureka. However, this relationship is erased with the change in timeline. He is back to being a perpetual prankster and a low-level nemesis of Jo, though he shows signs of improving because of the trust she puts in him.

255-----
256* AgeGapRomance: With Jo.
257* AmazonChaser: Has a relationship with Jo, and, even after it ends, continues to hold a torch for her for a while.
258* AwesomeAussie: He may be a bag of cultural clichés (with his love of animal tracking as a possible reference to Creator/SteveIrwin), but he's not scared of a little (town-threatening) danger.
259* {{BFG}}: All non-lethal of course, but still... he has quite a few.
260* TheBigGuy: Easily one of the tallest members of the main cast, and robust enough to arm himself with multiple super-weapons for animal tracking.
261* {{CloudCuckoolander}}: Even the other townsfolk of Eureka think he's weird, what's that tell you?
262* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: Most of the time his theories are too bizarre to be true, other times...
263* GeniusBruiser: While not refined, he is just as well educated as anybody else in Eureka, which means he's a genius of course. He's also an impressive judge of character, and a cunning tracker.

271
272Holly is a Rocket Scientist and Fargo's LoveInterest in Seasons 4 and 5.
273-----
274* AmnesiacLover: The process of transferring her mind to a printed body [[LaserGuidedAmnesia causes her to lose all memories she had after she first came to Eureka]]. including her entire relationship with Fargo. By the GrandFinale, it seems to be slowly wearing off over time, with the implication she and Fargo [[MaybeEverAfter may get together again]].
275* ArtificialHuman: Near the end of the series, she's the uploaded mind of a person, running on a "photonic processor" in a bio-printed replica of her original body. Other than that, she's indistinguishable physically from any other person.
276* BrainUploading: As part of the 'matrix' plotline she is uploaded along with the rest of the crew.
277* CharacterDeath: As part of the Astraeus 'matrix' plotline she discovers the truth about the machine and is killed to prevent her from exposing it to the other crewmembers, though she was eventually brought BackFromTheDead as an ArtificialHuman.
278* DoYouWantToCopulate: When she and Fargo start developing some UnresolvedSexualTension and it starts distracting them while at work, she suggests they just have sex to get it out of their system so they can focus on their professional ambitions.
279-->'''Holly:''' The sooner we consummate, the sooner we concentrate!
280%%* GeekyTurnOn: Is this for Fargo.
281* InnocentInnuendo: A lot of her dialogue ends up as accidental innuendo.

283
284-->'''Holly:''' ''[shortly after]'' [[FlexibilityEqualsSexAbility I have extremely limber joints!]]

287
288-->'''Holly:''' ''[explaining why she wants a body instead of living as a VirtualGhost]'' Can you imagine going through eternity unable to touch yourself?
289* MetaGirl: After she comes BackFromTheDead but had her memory wiped, she goes around town observing everyone to try and get it back. A number of things she says, whether about Carter, Fargo, or the town itself, dovetail rather neatly with the fans' opinions of the show and its characters.
290* ReallyGetsAround: She prefers to deal with {{unresolved sexual tension}} by [[DoYouWantToCopulate resolving it]], and being more comfortable with the sexual part of relationships than the romantic ones. "This One Time At Space Camp" reveals that one of her previous conquests was [[FoeCooties Fargo's nemesis at Galaxy Camp]].
291* SacrificialLion: As part of the fifth season's DarkerAndEdgier turn, Holly ends up being murdered by Senator Wen to keep the true nature of the virtual world a secret.
292* SexGoddess: Claims that while she's awkward with the more social aspects of relationships, she's [[SexGoddess really good at sex]].
293* SheKnowsTooMuch: When she figures out the crew of the Astraeus are trapped in a LotusEaterMachine, she is immediately killed by Senator Wen.
294* VirtualGhost: After her murder, it's revealed that Holly was still "alive" in some fashion inside the Matrix. Fargo eventually managed to [[BrainUpload upload her]] into SARAH's computer systems, where Holly lives on as a projection on SARAH's wall until she's fully revived.

315!!!'''Played by''': Creator/NeilGrayston
316SARAH (Self Actuated Residential Automated Habitat) may not be a human, but the SmartHouse is a character in her own right, becoming quickly attached to Carter and having a few emotional issues of her own.
317-----
318* BenevolentAI: Well, mostly. Sometimes crosses over to TheComputerIsYourFriend. She has good intentions, but sometimes she does messed up things, like trapping Carter along with several other townspeople in "H.O.U.S.E. Rules," when Carter said he might leave, or manipulating a scientist into creating gravity disturbances and attacking Sheriff Andy after Carter was fired and set to leave Eureka. Largely {{Justified}} as she has abandonment issues stemming from the fact that BRAD (The AI SARAH was built on top of) and the AIs before her were all scrapped/shelved.
319* CargoShip: Invoked by herself. She goes as far as installing artificial emotions in Deputy Andy to make it happen.
320* LoveHungry: A {{Downplayed}} variant. SARAH doesn’t force Andy to love her, but gives him the ability to feel (romantic) love, because she has fallen for him. It works. Andy is flattered at her interest, and they begin to see each other.
321* RoboRomance: With Andy. Andy decides he wants to keep the emotional subroutine, flattered she went on such lengths for him, and they start a relationship. Cue the next morning, Andy is seen coming out of SARAH's attachment patch and adjusting himself by a very astonished and disturbed Jo and Carter.
322* RunawayBride: Was engaged to marry Andy, but she got cold feet on the day of the wedding. Though she is not ready to be a housewife, as she calls it, she resumes the relationship with Andy, and they are, as of the finale, still together.
323* SmartHouse: Designed to anticipate her owner's needs and desires. Though her attachment to Carter leads her to do some bad things, and she can be neurotic at times.
324* {{Tsundere}}: Has some Tsundere tendencies towards Carter. If she is mad at him and feels neglected, she refuses to let him in, but she is also very protective of him and will go to great lengths so he doesn't leave. Also to Andy, going from trying to kill him to installing artificial emotions without his volition because she is in love with him.

333
334He was General Mansfield's hand-picked replacement for Jack as sheriff after Jack got fired, but ANDY comes to the conclusion that Jack should remain as the sheriff.
335-----
336
337* AndroidsAndDetectives: Has this dynamic with Jack after he becomes his deputy.
338* AscendedExtra: He was meant to be a one-off character in season 3, but became a recurring one in season 4.
339* BenevolentAI: Very much so. He's always happy to help.
340* CannotTellALie: He is incapable of lying when asked a direct question.
341* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: PlayedForLaughs. As a robot, he reacts to the various accidents that befall him with what can be summed up as a "Isn't that something?" attitude.
342-->'''ANDY:''' My software indicates I should acknowledge my physical injuries, OWWWWWWWWWWW.
343* MeaningfulName: "Andy" is short for "Android".
344* TheNthDoctor: He's played by Creator/TyOlsson in his first appearances. In "The Story of O2", he's replaced by Creator/KavanSmith, and has been redesigned InUniverse to look different as ANDY 2.0.
345* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: If Andy is not cheerful, you know something is seriously wrong.
346* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: He's a robot that looks virtually identical to a human.
347* RoboRomance: With SARAH. After falling in love with him, she installs an emotional subroutine in Andy, allowing him to feel emotions. Andy is flattered at her interest and they begin a relationship. Though they had some difficult times, such as when SARAH cancelled the wedding or when he was trapped on Titan, they remain a happy couple.
348* SherlockScan: He figures out the entire Carter-travelled-to-1947-and-returned-to-an-Alternate-Universe plot after looking at him and fielding a handful of totally innocuous questions.

369The owner of Cafe Diem, a local restaurant. Vincent's restaurant has no menus as he is able to make ''anything'' that a customer orders. He is another one of Eureka's resident geniuses, having a doctorate in molecular gastronomy.
370-----
371* AmbiguouslyGay: The show did not confirm, explore, or dramatize his sexuality in any way, but his manners and some of his comments suggest he is.
372** In the season 1 episode "[[Recap/EurekaInvincible Invincible]]", when Carl Carlson planted a public kiss on Beverly, some other men commented how they'd always wanted to do so. Vincent's response was to say, "Even I've thought about it", which would seem to imply there was something unusual about ''him'' in particular wanting to do so.
373** In the season 2 episode "[[Recap/EurekaGamesPeoplePlay Games People Play]]", when the problem of the week causes Jack to imagine a fake Eureka where people begin to disappear, He asks Vincent if he has seen his deputy 'Joe Lupo' and Vincent replies 'No, is he cute?' implying an interest in men.
374** In the [[Recap/EurekaJustAnotherDay series finale]] it doesn't seem so ambiguous any more, to judge from his reaction to [[spoiler:naked Parrish]].

419* PutOnTheBus: He was completely absent in season 3, but TheBusCameBack in season 4.
420* TeenGenius: Able to create a way to detect theoretical phenomena in less then a month. Also able to create a serum on the fly to turn your average Joe into a genius among geniuses.
