ASD on TV

As if I am not already inundated with shows on my DVR, I've been repeatedly reminded by colleagues this year of all the great TV shows that are allegedly featuring a character that is on the spectrum. More specifically, the great TV shows with characters who have Asperger's Syndrome.

Here's a short list of those shows (with characters in parantheses), in case you're wondering ...

• Community (Abed Nahir)
• The Big Bang Theory (Sheldon)
  
• Parenthood (Max)

Have you been watching any of these shows - or others? If so, here's to hoping that you are gaining insights while vegging on the sofa.
