"Boy genius with a secret laboratory" describes a great many characters in TV, movies, and cartoons.

CK1 - no, it's a "Cartoon Network" show called Dexter's Lab. It is about a boy genius.

Tried that a few times, also several different spellings like "Newtron", until Dexter occurred to me.

I'm glad you attributed Poindexter to "Felix the Cat" and not "Revenge of the Nerds". I just wish I had gotten the answer.

No one said that these people are NOTHING more than nerds. that's just one thing about them. if you did a quiz about people with blonde hair, it doesn't mean that that's the only distinguishing feature of that person, it's just one.

Einstein was far away from being a nerd xD

Hawking was closer to, but I am sure that if he wouldn't be on a wheelchair he would be a soul of the company

The FBI agent is Booth. The forensics expert is Temperance Brennan aka Bones.

Booth is a jock. Many of the other characters would count as nerds, including Temperance Brennan, aka Bones.

Yay nerd power. Word to the wise: most people who use wheelchairs really don't like the antiquated term "wheelchair bound." There are many reasons for this, one being that the term perpetuates the misconception that wheelchairs are things that confine people, as opposed to being tools that actually increase freedom of movement. It's a term that reinforces ignorance of the day to day experiences of people with disabilities. Besides the importance of respecting the wishes of people when we talk about them, modern best practices in many governments and organisations discourage the use of this term in English. There are lots of better terms, like "wheelchair using" or "physicist who uses a wheelchair." I hope this gets changed in the clue!

YEAH NERDS 4 LIFE!!!!!

Also, can you please accept "Superman" for "Clark Kent"? I feel like it's justified here since you don't mention it explicitly, as you did with Spiderman.

"World's richest nerd" is a very vague clue. How do you define a nerd, is it Gates, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk...? Doesn't matter who it is, the positions get changed almost monthly. I know QM will ignore this because I have annoyed him enough in the past, but just saying.

Yeah. At the very least it should be changed to be (or just accept) Musk.

Carlton was far and away the best character in the Fresh Prince, although Geoffrey the English butler was pretty good too… Carlton’s dancing was just superb…
