    Imagine just spending your life cranking out crossword puzzles like a nerd in a cubicle for years and then all of the sudden some gorgeous Hollywood starlet fan girls over you like you’re the frontman of an 80’s metal band.

      Gillian Jacobs is not a "gorgeous Hollywood starlet." She's 40 years old and she's a D list actress who is mostly only known for having been in Hot Tub Time Machine.

      He's actually gotten a lot of recognition. He's guest starred as himself on The Simpsons and How I Met Your Mother and been on several talk shows including Oprah and Colbert. That documentary about him Gillian mentioned was the best reviewed and most commercially successful documentary of 2006 and included interviews with Bill Clinton and Jon Stewart, both gushing about him as much as she did. More people watched all of that than watched this game show, but there's probably little overlap, so you're right that this appearance introduced him to a new audience.

Nerd by definition (yup, just looked it up) is a person seen as overly intellectual, obsessive, introverted or lacking social skills. I mean Peter Parker is considered a science nerd, Supergirl, Lena and Lex Luthor (some comic book types) and then many could say Stephen Colbert is a nerd (based on his love of Lord of the Rings, amongst other reasons), Lady Gaga who went to Julliard, Margot Robbie who has discussed her love of Harry Potter books in interviews. Again-and redundantly-being a nerd is partially based on what’s trendy, but it’s certainly branched away from Urkel and Velma like characters. ✌🏾

    The answer was obvious. One of them looks and answers like a normal human being while the other tried so hard to look "nerdy". Also Gillian is so wholesome on this, I love her enthusiasm!

    The moment he smiled and quickly schooled his expression when she said she loved crosswords was so telling. I'm not sure he's encountered a celebrity fan before.
