You are among the TV Geek Elite. Give your daughter Sulu a celebratory kiss- if you can tear yourself away from 7th Heaven long enough. On second thought... maybe you should try reading a book (and no, TV Guide doesn't count).
12-14 points: SuperGeek!
Impressive- keep your eyes on the prize- you're just a few points away from true Geek nirvana!
10-11 points: TV Geek!

Poor Star Jones. Or is it Star Jones-Reynolds? Either way, somebody please tell that loud-mouthed lard-ass that her 15 minutes are up. Nobody cares about her wedding or her floppy-ass boobs. Here's some advice: Go home to your asexual husband, count your blessings that you have your seat on the incredibly unwatchable The View, and please, dear God, stay out of the tabloids. If I have to read in Page Six about how you want to get a labiaplasty, I swear I'll puke in Joy's lap.
