It's That Time Of Year again... the time where I take each of my non-nerdy nieces for a week at a time for an intensive 7-day "Geek Camp". For those of you new to my Internetiness and may not have seen previous years recaps or boasts, let me just sum it up in one word: Awesome.

Past years have included courses on Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, Star trek, Star Wars, Comic Books, Super Heroes, Science Fiction, Marathon TV Viewing and more.

This year I have hit a snag with my youngest niece, Hannah.

Everything for her personal course of action this year hinged on her being at least as open to new things as her older sister was last year. I had planned to watch Army of Darkness with her, then move on to Doctor Who for the rest of the week of watching between our games of D&D and Magic.

Unfortunately, she was unable to make it through Army of Darkness because it's "Too Freaky" :(

If the rubber kung-fu zombies of Army of Darkness are too much for her then I'm POSITIVE that the faceless manequin zombies of Doctor Who will also be far too much.

I have to re-design her whole week, and I have to do it NOW.

I'm thinking that we'll switch to watching Sci-Fi's Eureka? That's not a "Freaky" show, is it? I have up on it after the first season so I don't really remember what I'm getting in to here...

Any suggestions for non-freaky-but-still-nerdy shows I can show her this week?
