come on, is nobody nerdy enough to say Doctor Who?
where everything is solved by waving a magic wand? sorry "sonic screwdriver"?
as for other recommendations, Red Dwarf was good in it's early days, just like the X-files was until it got to bogged down in it's on mythology..
just avoid the three part back to earth series
Jericho, the fact it got cancelled after one season was NUTS (bonus points if you get it
)
never heard of it
Buffy The Vampire Slayer of course is cult nerd.
think it was series six where it got too silly
Stargate SG1 is well worth watching (again early stuff, forget it after O'Neill left)
this^
Agents of Shield (I must be like one of the few fans it has LOL)
still never really watched it properly
Farscape, sorry Muppets in space it screamed to me, never could get into as a result, I'll proberly try oneday though.
I can see that, watch the 200th sg1 episode
Now how about some Anime, you can't get molre nerdy then Anime
Ghost in the Shell (both films and Stand Alone Complex TV series are worth watching, tottally different beast though)
Patlabour (the films, never watched the series)
Hellsing (Alucard is one of the most far out vamps I have ever seen man)
Robotech (EPIC Space Opera, enough said)
Most of the Mobile Suit Gundam series are also worth a watch as well.
add on gungrave and trigun as must watch animes as well
