Its basically a reality/competition show where 11 nerds must compete in nerd specific challenges and hopefully one will become king of the nerds. Its really cool the people they selected to compete. Ranging from nasa scientists, master hackers, comic book scientists, mathemeticians, pro gamers, etc. The challenges are nerds based, first episode was two nerds going head to head in chess, with an exciting twist. Next week the challenge involves hardcore cosplay and possibly later on goes on to comic book history and theory. ITS AWESOME. BTW I started watching the big bang theory and I can relate to the characters. And penny reminds me of a girl I have a crush on lol.
