Numb3rs: Robert Voets

Credits

DVD Release Date: May 30, 2006; Genre: Drama; With: Judd Hirsch, David Krumholtz and Rob Morrow

Who'd've thunk Rob Morrow would be more believable as a tough-guy FBI agent than David Krumholtz is as his genius brother? Contrasted with a restrained Morrow, Krumholtz, while able, may relish his logic lectures a bit too much.

EXTRAS In a featurette, Morrow calls the show '' Rain Man but with an extra Jew,'' and Krumholtz cops to failing algebra. Another reveals that Morrow and Judd Hirsch weren't in the original, unaired pilot. And co-creator Cheryl Heuton admits that an inspiration was the ''Way Cool Scientist'' segment of Bill Nye the Science Guy.
