Top 10 Smartest TV Characters
Breaking out of a prison with maximum-level security, as well as two other high-security prisons, and then breaking his girlfriend out of another top-security prison is only for genius people. But this is not the most impressive thing. He brought down an entire anonymous company that would rule the USA and the entire world.
The way he got the Scylla was unbelievable! He did dozens of genius moves, but the two that impressed me the most were the plan to access the office of Jacob (an evil genius) and how he outsmarted Jacob, incriminating him for the murder that Jacob actually committed! He is from another planet!
By the way, sorry for my bad English.
Titled the "smartest man in the universe" by so far everyone in the universe. He even managed to be the smartest of all the alternate versions of himself. He's manipulative, brilliant, and logical.
Titled Smartest Man in the Universe in an infinite universe.
That technically makes him smarter than any other entity in any fictional universe.
Rick Sanchez knows everything. Rick Sanchez can do everything. Rick Sanchez is easily the smartest guy in the universe. He is basically God.
How is he so low? His IQ is 187, he was a child prodigy, he won a Nobel prize, he has an eidetic memory, and he got a Ph.D. at 14. He is a theoretical physicist, a human calculator, and can solve calculus problems in his head.
He is technically in the super-genius IQ range. He can hack into a government supercomputer and has a wide range of knowledge from math to history. His job involves staring at a board of complicated mathematical equations and variables.
He knows more about comic books than anyone ever and had higher than 110% in his theoretical physics class at age 10. He mastered calculus, Euclidean geometry, quantum chromodynamics, Newtonian mechanics, and Einstein's general theory of relativity. He has never missed a single problem or gotten a math problem wrong in his life.
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!
Reid is far smarter than Sheldon. Reid has three Ph.D.s and knows far more than physics. He got those Ph.D.s before the age of 24. Sheldon only has two Ph.D.s and a master's.
So, who do you think is smarter? I say Reid. He's even smarter than Velma.
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.
From the future, meaning he knows more than anyone from the present time.
Only smarter than all of the others because of his futuristic intellectual resources.
House has intelligence that is not one-dimensional. He excels in science, medicine, language, human nature, biology, and music and has the best jokes.
Simply has the most intellectual brain power in television history. I'd put Dr. Hannibal very close behind him, and Walter White in third.
Combined, his practical and theoretical intelligence could defeat any opponent. He should definitely be higher ranked on this list.
Simply the smartest criminal of all time.
He's animated. Cartoons generally venture into the realm of the impossible.
It doesn't matter if it is animated. It said TV characters for animated and live actors.
31? 31? You have got to be kidding yourself. He is by far smarter than everyone on the list, apart from Gregory House and maybe Mycroft Holmes.
Also, considering his knowledge of almost all fields and unmatched memory, he can be compared to a few Star Trek characters who don't belong on this list in the first place.
Huh? There isn't a single character in the 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.
Sherlock is on every other top list, and he has the smarts to prove it.
He is the mastermind. He should be placed among the top 5. The way he planned the heist is mind-blowing and yet believable.
Definitely one of the smartest criminal masterminds of all time!
Oh, come on! He is the smartest ever.
Created time travel while still wearing a diaper.
Super genius baby invented a time machine and can do amazing fight moves. He has a whole bunch of guns.
The only one on this list I would mark as more intelligent than the Doctor is Rick Sanchez. And even then, it's a barely there difference.
He is very smart and got out of very tough spots with only words. He fights things with his mind all the way from bloodthirsty aliens to carnivorous planets. (Don't ask.)
Bro, he is smarter than anyone on this list. He literally knows everything. Not joking, everything.
