The 5 Smartest TV Characters Ranked

A genius isn't the character the script tells us has a 200 IQ. It's the one whose intelligence you can feel through the screen. This is my top 5 — characters whose intelligence shows in every single scene. Not through other characters' dialogue. Through their actions. 00:00 — Intro 00:34 #5 — Sheldon Cooper 02:16 #4 — Patrick Jane 04:10 #3 — Dexter Morgan 05:54 #2 — Walter White 07:41 #1 — Michael Scofield Disagree with the ranking? Think someone got left off the list? Drop it in the comments — it might just become the next video.
