Spoiler: Big Bang doesn't win.
Please don't waste your time defending Big Bang Theory, a show I've hardly watched more than 20 minutes of and that doesn't interest me in the least. It's not really about that. It's just how I drew you here. Rather, check out the scene from this episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show that starts around 13:00. I won't spoil it here, but that is one geekariffic comic book reference, coming from a surprising source.
Certainly beats the token geek humor mainstreamed for friends-of-geeks-but-not-geeks-themselves I've see on BBT. Not saying it's funnier, just that it's way more satisfying when you get the reference.

Oh, if only that were true...
Even back then though, Tomb of Dracula had been running for a couple years, hadn't it?
