Yeah, same here - I just don’t watch enough TV to know the show. I could look it up, but it would cost me my self-respect. I would just as soon throw down my panache… ---

I’ve watched it exactly once, and that was because a high-school friend was in that episode. Couldn’t tell you a thing about the regular cast except that one character was a Vietnam vet. ---

Ok, since you all threw in the towel, I am: SPENCER REID from _Criminal Minds_ I’ll be back later for the new game, unless you wanna wait a couple days for August. ---

Six days is too long to wait. I’m addicted to Botticelli. ---

Well done, **etv78**! Contemporary TV turns out to be surprisingly tricky - good choice! ---

OK, then. But… does anyone else know Spencer Reid? ---

> [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > OK, then. But… does anyone else know Spencer Reid? I don’t, but according to Wikipedia, the show has been in the US top 20 for the last 5 seasons. So I’d say enough people know. (Probably more than would know who Sandro Botticelli is, unless you said "the guy that painted the naked chick on the clam (Obligatory Simpsons reference)) ---

For what it’s worth, if you type ‘Spencer R’ into google, he’s the first one that comes up. ---
