    Nice Poll!
    For me it's clearly Birkhoff and Felicity.
    Just mentioning for completeness: Eric (NCIS LA) and McGee (NCIS).

    Maurice Moss.
    Hit up the IT crowd on Youtube. His hairstyle alone wins.

    I voted for Felicity, because she started so quiet in Arrow but she knew the time to shine. I love her character. And I voted for Nolan Ross, but, just because what he did in season one; he used to be my favorite character on Revenge, but the creator messed up with the script and the character in season 2. Now, in season 3, I can see a little of his old characteristics. I hope the show can bring the old Nolan back. He was so much more interesting.

    Chuck from the list, and Birkoff, but from La Femme Nikita, I haven't watched the new Nikita yet, so I don't know about BirkHoff.

    Chuck Bartowski. Not only was he an excellent hacker, and nerd herder, but he held a supercomputer in his brain (several actually), saved the world three times, was a badass spy, turned two of the worlds coldest most dangerous spies into softies, won Sarah Walker's heart, help a little girl tape her ballet recital, and perhaps most of all: stopped WW3 using missile command. To quote Captain Awesome himself, Chuck Bartowski is, "outstanding."

  31. Midnight18 February 2014 at 13:57

    Voted for Felicity and Topher. More people should check out Dollhouse, it really is a great show.

    Others include Garcia from Criminal Minds, Root from Person of Interest (not a stereotypical IT nerd but still), Angela from Bones, Willow from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Chloe from 24.

    ReplyDelete
  32. calamitydjane18 February 2014 at 14:21

    Topher, Felicity and Nolan are my favorite from the list. Now for me these are also great TV nerds: Abed from Community, Mac from Veronica Mars, Willow from Buffy, Angela from Bones, Chloe from 24...

  38. DarqueMode18 February 2014 at 15:17

    From the list above , Felicity is my fav nerd, but...
    I would add Alec Sadler from Continnum and Mac from Veronica Mars much, much higher!
    I would rate Birkoff from La Femme Nikita above them all. However...


    My favorite by far is one that does not really fit in the IT nerd category as most people think of it perhaps... Harold Finch!


    As a rule I loathe the stereotyping of tech support agents on TV, but I really hate the agents that have more jobs allocated to them than one person would ever do in reality. Chemical analysis, ballistics, and the like generally do not fall ito tech support parameters! XD

    I watched the Dollhouse pilot, didn't really get into it, eventually decided to give it another shot and watched the next 3 episodes... still wasn't enthralled (loved Ballard, though). I did hear some people say it gets much better, though. Would you recommend picking it back up?

    I went with Felicity Smoak for Arrow because she's just awesome...the only thing better than her intelligence is her constant awkwardness which makes her just so freakin' adorable:)


    i also selected OTHER going for Aram from The Blacklist. i have no idea why but i've always adored him...he's almost a guy Felicity..uncomfortable in social situations but the go-to-guy for electronics.

    Absolutely. It doesn't truly pick up until episode 6 or so, but everything from the back half of season 1 through the season 2 finale is amazing. I wasn't that into the show at first either, but I kept watching and saw a complex, intriguing narrative unfold. I highly recommend picking it back up, you'll be hooked by the end of season 1.

  79. Alex Forrest19 February 2014 at 08:01

    Oooh, Mac! I love her! And she's kind of edgy and sarcastic in a way these characters don't tend to be.


    On that note, I think calling the poll "IT nerd" (rather than just "IT expert" or something like that) narrows it down too much. Because the amazing Harold Finch isn't really a nerd. And Skye from AoS, who is on the list, definitely isn't - the nerds on that show are FitzSimmons who specialize in engineering and bio-chemistry, respectively, rather than computers.

  86. R Vassilissa20 February 2014 at 22:53

    Tbh, I used the term 'nerd' simply as a reference to "Chuck", as in Nerd Herd. What I meant was that the characters listed do not just possess exceptional IT skills, but that they are particularly smart and passionate about what they do. I intended the poll to be about that narrow category.
    Anyway, feel free to submit separate polls about favourite nerd and favourite IT expert if you like, there are some good suggestions in the comments to add in both categories. :)

  87. Alex Forrest21 February 2014 at 12:49
