Top 10 Smartest TV Characters

House has intelligence that is not one dimensional. He excels in science, medicine, language, human nature, biology, music and has the best jokes.

He's number one
Sherlock should be number two what

Simply has the most intellectual brain power in television history. I'd put Dr. Hannibal VERY close behind him, and Walter White at 3rd.

Only smarter than all of the others because of his futuristic intellectual resources

He's an total idiot you're a buffoon your whole lists are jokes - Kevinsidis

In france its called a guillotine

Good news, everybody...I'm smart hehhee - fuadmondeo

He's super smart, and he's just plain adorable. I know that doesn't have anything to do with the question, but it had to be said.

You know what, I think this page is stupid, Spence is the smartest and he always will be

He's smart & cute

He is near the top of my favorite geniuses. I always love when he isn’t up to date on the pop culture stuff because he’s just not interested and has more important things to do!

So smart that he had no life. By the way tat sexist liberal Brian is the dumbest person in T.V., third next to ozzy lusty, and Lois pewtershmit. - q1q1q1q1q1

Smartest criminal I know and that's a fact

Oh come on! He is the smartest ever.

Sherlock is on every other top list and he has the smarts to prove it.

How the hell is sherlock so low on this list

Huh? There isn't a single character within top 10 who is as smart as him. Also, Leonardo from Da Vinci's Demons should be here too, maybe the only one smarter than Sherlock among show protagonists.

31, 31, you have got be kidding youself. He is by far smarter than everyone in the list, apart from gregory House and maybe Microft holmes. Also considering his idea of almost all fields and unmatched memory, he can be compared to few Star Trek characters who don't belong in this list in the first place.

He can read minds and he is number 18 on this list. He is so much smarter then the Breaking Bad guy, Mister Peabody and Walter Bishop.

He knows you more than you do

He is not lower than top 3

Just The Mentalist..

How is he not smarter than Lisa? Has anyone seen this show?

Hands down top ten. Anything else is an insult. He basically understands everything physical.

He is Brilliant in his feild and anyone that can do lab experiments like he does deserves to be at number 4.

How can Reid be ahead of Dr. Bishop? Sacrilege! He traveled between universes and did a host few crazy sh*t like a juiced up Einstein. Low blow people, low blow.

He was smart, but not half as smart as the rest of the people on this list.

The Guy creates the Machine that watches everybody in the world and is a big time hacker

Denfinitely bones. half the time you don't even have a clue what she is even saying. she is the smartest person I have ever seen on a T.V. show.

I'm not that into the show or anything but I have seen it a couple of times and to be fair he deserves to be up here.

Already on here lol

I think its clever smart enough to be the no.6, also, its pink panther come on!

He may not be the genius level that bones is, But he's bugs and dirt and he did save their butts when they were buried alive.

Has to be smart to be the top of his career and be as respected as he is. great charactor.. for the most part, great show. even though this season isn't as good.

Fred was one of my favorite charactors from angel and even though she didn't work in a lab or have the doctor title doesn't mean she wasn't just as smart. when Fred would go on about physics you could tell that she was scary smart.

Afterall, He was head-boy!

On heroes he was the smartest. he knew exactly what was happening even nobody else did.. he was the professor that brought everyone together after his fathers' passing.

While, not as smart as the rest. he sure kept everyone on their toes in a tough situation on lost.
