Check out CSI miami. It's going on right now (started at 10 pm EST). Within this "episode" that supposedly depicts "real life" you'll find every gamer cliche ever. Just shows American ignorance at work, and how it spreads.
I saw (Tivoed) that one when it first aired. Pretty dopey. Might have been a thread on it back then, but since you can't search for CSI (3 letters) it's too hard to determine.
Playing on the (prevelant?) misperception that playing violent video games will naturally lead to real life violence. I could maybe see that argument with impressionable kids, but they have college students succumbing in the episode. Pretty whacked.

Hilariously enough, TNT just aired at 11 PM an episode of Without a Trace that involved a moment where the FBI discovered a very crude shooting game based in a high school on a suspect's computer. Not to ruin the episode or anything but the game has little to do with anything else, but they still used gaming as a sign (although, honestly, if someone was playing any sort of game like that it would be pretty hard to ignore).
Tonight must be "we rag on who we think gamers are" night on TV.

But you can search "CSI Miami" which results in this...
