Finally, I've found a realistic career aspiration. The premise of the show is that the domain (get it?) of numbers apparently isn't just limited to the chalkboard (or new fangled "whiteboards") any more. Here's the show's tagline:
Rob Morrow stars as FBI agent Don Eppes, who recruits his mathematical genius brother, Charlie (David Krumholtz), to help the Bureau solve a wide range of challenging crimes in Los Angeles. From two very different perspectives, the brothers take on the most confounding criminal cases, aided by Don's partner, Terry Lake (Sabrina Lloyd), and new FBI recruit David Sinclair (Alimi Ballard). Although their father, Alan (Judd Hirsch), is pleased to see his sons working together, he fears their competitive nature will lead to trouble. Charlie's colleague, physicist Dr. Larry Fleinhardt (Peter MacNicol), urges Charlie to focus more on his university studies than on FBI business. Inspired by actual events, NUMB3RS depicts how the confluence of police work and mathematics provides unexpected revelations and answers to the most perplexing criminal questions.
So I guess here's how my life will turn out:
FBI agent Joel Boonstra recruits his mathematical genius brother, Philip, to help the Bureau solve a wide range of challenging crimes in Grand Rapids. From two very different perspectives, the brothers take on the most confounding criminal cases, aided by Joel's partner, Schmitty, and new FBI recruits and sisters, Rachel and Lydia. Although their father, Richard, is pleased to see his sons working together, he fears their competitive nature will lead to trouble. Philip's colleague AND girlfriend, physicist Dr. Laura Klamer, urges Phil to focus more on his university studies than on FBI business. And I have a feeling that the brothers' Mom, Trena, isn't too far away, either; solving crimes in her own way: with books! Inspired by actual events, NUMB3RS depicts how the confluence of police work and mathematics (especially differential equations!) provides unexpected revelations and answers to the most perplexing criminal questions.
