    No no IT Crowd is a show about sysadmins, not geeks lol. There’s a very clear difference.

      And Moss was a nerd not a geek. He wasn’t obsessing about comics, videogames etc. like the characters in BBT.

        I also think this is a cultural difference. The comic book obsession seems more like an american thing. In the Netherlands and Belgium there is also a big comic book appreciation, but it’s much less about heroism and more humorous.

          Okay but he didn’t obsess about the British equivalent of comic books either. Geeks obsess about consumerist pop culture whether it’s comics, LEGO or Harry Potter. And Moss did non of that.
