The man knows how to write dialog, how to make badasses of the doofiest of nerds, how to make sexpots of the most unlikeliest of actors. He is a ginger titan, a colossus bestriding the tube of boob. Joss Whedon knows how to make great television.

Poll. Am I the only Newsviner that loves "How It's Made"?

When I was a young kid in the early 1960's there used to be a TV show that came on every Sunday afternoon called "Industry on Parade". If I remember right it was on just before "Ted Mack's Original Amateur Hour".

The stereotypical nerd is the one with bottle cap glasses, pocket protectors, and high water pants. He does all his work in school, often getting pressured into doing others work as well. A nerd is always home by ten o'clock and balks at breaking the smallest of rules.
