But also, Hewlett? Shanks? I KNOW Hewlett is a big nerd.

Edward James Olmos is more obsessive about BSG than most of the fans are.

I've interviewed quite a few actors and celebs like Simon Pegg, Bill Hader, Jaime King, Seth Green, Milo Ventimiglia, Margaret Cho, Seth MacFarlane, Masi Oka, and more here if any of you want to read more geek love comments.

You forgot Obama on your list. Start with his posing as Superman in front of the Superman statue. Then there is his Blackberry addiction; he's been advised by his security team to give it up and he replied they'd have to pry it from his cold, dead hands. And he's actually appointed a physicist to his cabinent! Of course, he's not an actor but he's on the public stage like an actor is and he's our highest ranking geek. Plus there was an article about this at Daily Kos and the phrase "All your bases belong to us" where we learn he's made jokes about Jor-el's name and dilithium crystals plus his knowing what the aforementioned phrase means. Follow the link at least to check out his Superman pose in front of the Superman statue! (Add to this a nice synchronicity: I was listening to NPR on the radio and they said Obama at the same time as I was typing Obama at the start of this paragraph!)

Actually, I think the Heroes cast and crew in general set a high standard for being appreciative and friendly towards fandom. From Grunberg on Twitter to Pasdar on YouTube, they have really grasped the sense of community that makes geekdom so rewarding and fun!
