I think that's probably true. Although, Garcia?
Man, if I didn't ship Parker/Hardison so bad...
Nah, I could dally.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Completely unrelatedly...coolest geek on TV? I'm biased by my overweening current crush, but Alec Hardison? What's his competition? Chuck Bartowski? Sam Winchester (but he's a bit busy being...other things)?
Castle is a big old geek (much, I suspect, like Fillion), but still not at Hardison's level.
John Crichton?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
And now I am actually reading this thing that I had to sign when I did my performance evaluation and it is assinine. It basically says I agree to adhere to the standards and behaviors listed, or I could be disciplined up to or including termination. But the behaviors range from the vague (neat, proper dress, greet people warmly) to the silly and minor (report spills) to the kind of stupid (Introduce yourself and explain your role--- would that be upon first meeting someone, or each and every time you see them!)

coolest geek on TV
Stephen Colbert! He's a LotR fanatic, geeks out about space stuff, and just argued with a musician about the Oxford comma on last night's show.

Punishingly Intricate
Speaking of puffed sleeves, is there an age limit? I like them on me, and I'm a not-at-all-girlish 37.
I'm wearing puffed short sleeves right now and I'm almost 42!
I know nothing of the show that this Garcia is on but it's what my friend's boyfriend's family calls her.

I don't think of Castle as particularly geeky at all, not like Hardison or Garcia or Chuck. He's not IT. Same with Crichton, but differently--he's technical enough to be a pilot, but more sciencey.
eta: I should restate--I meant tech god(dess), when I was thinking it...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Lisa, I'm now assuming your friend is awesome (which would not surprise me at all). It's Criminal Minds!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Hardison's my choice for coolest tv geek.
I work in NGO world (no relation to NGA world, except that I have dual citizenship). People wear jeans, suits, mumus, hippie skirts and t-shirts, you name it. And I haven't seen so many birkis since the last time I went to a UU service.

Tech geek, I'd go with either Abby or McGee on NCIS.
