10 Hot TV Nerds Who Set Completely Unrealistic Expectations

3. Chuck Bartowski - Chuck

chuck600 Chuck is clearly a geek - he works as a Nerd Herder at the Burbank Best Buy Buy More, plays video games with Morgan so much it makes his fingers bleed, and has had the same Tron poster hanging in his bedroom since he was 12 years old. He's a classic underachiever, preferring not to try rather than risking failure. After being expelled from Stanford for something he didn't do, Chuck was undeniably in a rut. But of course, all of this dysfunction is wrapped up in a handsome, dark-haired, 6'4" frame. Even if you're not the type who's swayed by looks, Chuck is kind, funny, intelligent, passionate, and romantic. All this before the government accidentally downloaded James Bond into his noggin. Basically what I'm trying to say is that if Chuck is a nerd, the rest of us are screwed.
