Whether they're insanely smart coders or super hardworking students, these geeks from our fave TV shows and movies have caught our eyes. We put some of them side by side and crown the better geek.

Even though both are incredibly smart superheroes, there’s no doubt that Tony Stark is a tad more charming. But given his questionable moral decisions in the film, we’re not sure if he can be trusted. So the win goes to Dr Bruce Banner, who’s a total softie who has our hearts – when he’s not out rampaging the city as the Hulk, that is.
While both of them have crazy high IQs, more often than not, they find themselves cleaning up other people’s messes. Oh, did we mention they’re adorkable in social situations too? We can’t decide whether Richard or Leonard is the better geek, but it’s no secret that they both make us laugh. And you know what they say – if a man can make you laugh, keep him close.
If the 10 seasons of The X-Files are anything to go by, we know that Dana is not just an FBI Agent, but also a pretty kick-ass scientist. That being said, Cosima rates pretty high on the geek quotient. As the OG of Clone Club, her wits and intelligence brought the rest of the clones closer to finding out the story of their existence. And for that, this one goes to Cosima.
Besides the fact that they’re both insanely good-looking, these two are also one of the best in their fields. We’re in love with Owen’s dedication towards his raptors, but we also get why Thor is head over heels in love with Jane. After all, she doesn’t just possess beauty and brains, she also has impressive courage and strength – definitely a winner.
We wouldn’t be surprised if someone told us that Harold Finch and Elliot Alderson are one and the same. They are equally enigmatic, reclusive and completely brilliant. We want to let Harold win for building a machine that can predict crime but, then again, we love Elliot for his soft, vulnerable side. And besides, maybe Elliot would create something equally impressive when he’s Harold’s age?
