Yeah, I really laughed at that. They memorize the lines and recite them with a straight face but usually the technical content is just silly. As the character Janice said in one of the episodes to another FBI person "yes, I need you to open up a fresh socket for me" ROF LOL !!!!!!!!!
And last season on 24, they had a couple of episodes where they were supposedly reprogramming the "mainframe" by pulling cards and tinkering with them. When they went into the "mainframe room", all that was in there was a couple of racks of Cisco switches. .... snip Regards, Richard Schuh
