Nerds are awesome, despite what your local high school bully might like to believe. This is why you can barely make it through a sitcom without encountering at least a few goofy, pop-culture loving weirdos. There's something so easily loveable about an unconventional goofball who is passionate about their hobbies and doesn't care about being "cool". That's what makes this pair so great.

Jake Peralta and Leonard Hofstadter are very different characters. Jake is a brilliant detective whose geekier side shines thanks to his goofiness and references to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Die Hard. Whereas Leonard is more of your typical smart guy nerd, with a PhD in experimental physics and plenty of nerd-culture knowledge. Overall, they run the gambit of what a nerd can be.

Thanks to their interests, personalities and position as the lead character in their respective shows, their dialogue can tend to step on the other's toes. Because of this, you might have some difficulty sorting the cop from the scientist.

So, have a go at this quiz and see if you can spot the differences in this unconventional crossover.
