Most Intelligent: 33-35





#35: Oscar Martinez, The Office
Oscar is, by far, the smartest person in the office (probably to add to the homosexual stereotype the fun-loving writers came up with). The peak of his frustration is seen when boss Michael Scott, facing public pressure, counters Oscar's plethora of facts about the Chinese economy with a juvenile, but charismatic, "Go America" speech, which, of course, wins the crowd over.

Weakness: He doesn't have to be a genius to stay smarter than the office, which seems to be his only ambition.











#34: Samuel "Screech" Powers, Saved by the Bell
Screech is that kid you want sitting in front of you in high school. When he isn't being stuffed into lockers or trash cans, he is constantly doing somebody else's homework, coming up with a new algorithm, or using his sarcastic wit to taunt.

Weakness: He fell in with the wrong crowd.












#33: Pete Campbell, Mad Men
Pete will undercut anybody in the agency to climb the ladder. He even salvaged blockbuster client, Lucky Strike, when Don exhibited a rare case of not being prepared. He has a deep dark hatred for his parents, a subtle fact viewers can pick up at times. This likely fuels his bitter drive to capitalize when he can.

Weakness: His unlikability, if you will allow me to make up that word
