Ah…..I really miss the X files!! I figure I can get about half of them!! How much of a geek does that make me??
November 1st, 2007 at 7:39 am
My mind’s a complete blank. I can’t identify any but the X-Files and Lost. And Google’s no help, either. *heavy sigh*
November 1st, 2007 at 8:58 am
Okay, I’ve got some of them (I think)
1) X-Files
2) Chuck (which is one of my favorite new shows)
6) The 4400
9) MacGyver (I have no idea if it’s what you’re refering to but the Stargate Sg1 geek in me required I give it as an answer. It’s in someones signature line at Gateworld *grin*)
13) Stargate Atlantis
Not quite half, but close (unless I’m wrong on MacGyver and one or more of those I felt sure about)

i only know 1 & 6
November 1st, 2007 at 10:11 am
Some people already answered the ones that I did know. For #12, I’ll take a wild guess and say “Roswell”.
November 1st, 2007 at 10:35 am
I know some of them but I can only guess at the others.
November 1st, 2007 at 10:38 am
I am terrible. Just the X-Files. Maybe it’s because I don’t watch TV anymore….
November 1st, 2007 at 10:48 am
I miss X-Files too…and I’m so proud I recognized #2 from Chuck!
November 1st, 2007 at 2:22 pm
Hmm… I could only guess a few of them.
November 1st, 2007 at 3:56 pm
I could only guess some of them, though the X Files and SG: Atlantis were obvious.
November 1st, 2007 at 6:15 pm
I’m a sci fi geek but could only guess the x-files one! What kind of fan am I? Arrgh!
Great list!

Ok it’s really sad that I know only #1 The Truth is out there because one of my best friends was OBSESSED with David Duchuvny. In fact even though she is married to a gorgeous Australian man her email still has elements of Mulder in it.
I am a Sci Fi fan I just don’t have time to watch any of the spectacular Geektastique shows. I watch Corner Gas, The Office and now freakin’ Grey’s Anatomy.

What a great TT! Not that I got too many of them. But just reading the lines on their own piques the interest, which of course is the point.
