Pop culture on research

There's a discussion unfolding right now on one of the email discussion lists I follow. Someone asked for pop culture references to research, and people are coming up with quite a lot.

Book-Bella's research skills are vastly inferior to those of Movie-Bella, as explained in one fun blog post. (Bella's information literacy is possibly all that improved in the transition to film!)

Here's a paper about the information-seeking behavior of characters in The Big Lebowski.

Other researching heroes (I haven't seen most of these, but I'm sure Adam has!):

• Lots of library research in Harry Potter (just how many times did they sneak into the Forbidden Section?)
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a classic example often mentioned in libraryland
• Supernatural is another show that frequently features research
• The movie Seven (though apparently Morgan Freeman violates patron privacy by going into circulation records...)
• Veronica Mars had a loose respect for the privacy of certain records, too, but she also used newspapers and subscription databases
• Someone uses microfilm in The Ring!
• ER characters frequently mention MEDLINE searches

Any others?
