Friday’s xkcd had Mathnet reference!
It was only this past Monday that I was telling someone how much I loved Mathnet and Square One TV. The Mathnet series was a spoof of, duh, Dragnet and each episode was about 5-7 minutes, if I recall. In place of cops, you get two mathmeticians. One of them is obviously George there and his partner is Kate Monday. They solved crime using maths (no, not like they do in that silly Numb3rs show). The partners dressed in jacket and tie, and wore shoulder holsters that held a calculator. Oh, that killed me. I was a crime show junkie before I knew what “procedurals” meant.
Whatever happened to good educational programs eh?
