Numb3rs: Nerds Rule!
Tuesday, January 13, 2009


I really, really like this show. I didn't start to watch it until Sophina Brown from Shark, which was cancelled, appeared on this program.

The stars are David Krumholtz (Charlie Eppes), who plays a math genius and his brother, played by Rob Morrow (Don Eppes) who works for the FBI. Rob Morrow is the everywhere guy. I know his name, and I feel like I've seen him in every show, even if I cannot name them.

I originally avoided this program, because I feared that Charlie's character was going to be this obnoxious genius that the FBI could not function without. I actually found it to be a pleasant surprise. Charlie explains math in a way I wish I had school teachers like him. It has a nice large multi-ethnic / diverse cast, and no one is a walking or talking stereotype.

It also has two hot hunks to balance out the nerds: Alimi Ballard and Dylan Bruno. Hmm, yummy.

Ballard

Bruno

Talk about a late, yet very pleasant discovery.

The show is produced by British brothers, Tony Scott and Ridley Scott, both directors, and of the best in Hollywood. They have made plenty of films with a diverse cast. One is responsible for Alien (Ridley) and the other Tony, Man on Fire (I loved this flick).

I watch past episodes, from years back, via Netflix (instant watch), and the more recent via the CBS web site.
