Geek Comedy
"Geek Comedy" as a genre revolves around humor that celebrates and often satirizes elements of geek culture, appealing to audiences deeply immersed in various fandoms, technology, science, gaming, or niche interests. These shows and films typically feature protagonists who are intelligent but socially awkward, often portrayed as passionate enthusiasts in fields like comic books, video games, science fiction, or technology.

Characters in geek comedies are often portrayed as underdogs or misfits, navigating their lives in a world that doesn't always understand or appreciate their obsessions. Yet, their enthusiasm and knowledge about their particular interests become their strength, often leading them to unexpected triumphs or problem-solving moments.
