Yeah.. I'm not sure if it's real.  I don't know how that site works, it could be a post by a random fan for all I know.
I'm hoping someone can shed some light.

This guy seems to be real; he's posted tons of other "casting calls"

Interesting, if it's true it will be like epic

Can't wait to see what Satoshi's lair will look like...also can I suggest that some where in the show it says "No! It's in the blockchain!!"

[istar]

Thats awesome. Because of the anonymous nature there will definitely be more of these.

UP UP UP

The Good Wife is pretty big. My... *cough* erm... sister... watches it. No seriously.

If this is a real episode, that's huge!

I just don't want them to show it during the superbowl. BTW Bruce W. could play the role of Dylan!

This could be the "You've got mail" moment for Bitcoin. Its hard to believe that email was once novel enough to be the plot driver of a romantic comedy.

Don't go to the source site http://www.actorshelper.com/#!casting-calls unless you want to be stuck in a 1999 geocities myspace flash hell.

If you want to know the stereotype of a Satoshi:

[BAO] 26 to 35, a Chinese, male individual, brilliant but painfully shy, easily embarrassed, and quick to develop crushes, he's an econophysicist from Nankai University who may or may not be the true inventor of Bitcoin...GUEST STAR. PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ASIAN ETHNICITIES

It's pretty clear that Satoshi is not Asian culture-wise. Bitcoin was never offered directly in an Asian language. Whatever. TV has never been canonically correct to reality.

  Aye, but it better fits what the stereotypical American views as the face of someone that his insanely smart with math..


  Never heard of the show either, though to be fair i don't watch much t.v.  I will definetly tune in for an episode about Bitcoin however!  Did they have a plot drawn out for the episode?  And, anyone here thinking about casting for the parts? =)


  Cheers

This surely has the potential to be worse (or better) than the CSI furry episode...

My wife watches this show and so, consequently, I've seen a few episodes. It's not bad, per se, just not my cup of tea. It will probably be as effective at turning people onto bitcoin as a commercial on the Lifetime channel.

I watched most of the first season while on a 14 hour international flight. It's a pretty decent show. Nice!

[JeffK]

OH GOD, it's really going to be on a CBS drama series that some people watch?!?!


PEOPLE WILL TAKE US SERIOUSLY!


Boys and girl, our time has come. We will be kings of the new world order.

[JeffK]

Do you think we could get Bitcoin mentioned on 30 rock now too I really like that show.

[stick_theman]

This is HILARIOUS.  Someone please tape it!!
