I want my Geek TV!
Hmmm… How much would it cost to advertise technical jobs on this show? 
Seems like the perfect place for them.
“The IT Crowd”
At the UK company Reynhold Industries, their corporate high-rise towers are full of beautiful happy people with one success story after another. Well, except for the employees that work in the basement - the IT department. While their colleagues work in fantastic surroundings, Jen, Roy and Moss must work below ground in the dark and horrible basement, struggling to make it into normal society.
Jen is a career person who is looking to climb the corporate ladder. Unfortunately, due to fibbing on her CV (resumé), she finds herself the manager of the IT Department. The problem is, she knows nothing about technology! Roy and Moss make up the IT Department and share a love of technology, science fiction and not having to work if at all possible. What they don’t like is the idea of being supervised by someone who knows nothing about computers.
Seeing that Roy and Moss may know a lot about computers, but very little about working with people, Jen takes on the role of “Relationship Manager” to help the guys and help herself in the process.
The IT Crowd is a playful and somewhat surreal look at what it’s really like to be the underclass of every company - the IT Department.
Oh, I want to see this show! Looks like the only person missing is Napoleon Dynamite. Fortunately, you can preview some of the episodes from the Channel 4 website. Unfortunately, you have to be in Brittain to access the show. Grrrr… 
I hope they run it on BBC America, if not I will have to wait for it to become a hit in the UK and then wait a bit longer for an American version. (Like they did “The Office.” Whoops, sorry, I meant “The Office.”)
