NUMB3RS on film

Numb3rs (numbers) is a popular American television show partly filmed on the campus of Caltech. In Nigeria, it's available in pirated DVD format for about =N=250 per season dvd.

It combines an FBI crime drama with mathematics and mathematical modeling, plus a little psych, romance, and family drama to sweeten the deal. It's a convenient way to pick up some love for math.

Don (the FBI agent) is way cool and Charlie (his math-genius brother) is just adorable.
If I wasn't so gorgeous and brilliant already I would want to look and math like Amita. :)

Watch episodes and excerpts of Numb3rs here and share your favourites: characters, episodes, math references, cheesy jokes...
