Numb3rs had an episode featuring an MMORPG last Friday. Not SL, but a fictional more "traditional" game with an official goal designed into it, and the players, aside from Amita, were depicted as the stereotypical "get a life" sort. On the whole, though, pretty good. (Favorite scene: when "Kali" didn't let "Spectre" win.)
Of course, I'll forgive a lot for a series that shows mathematicians as human and math as the fascinating, beautiful, and useful field it is... just as I forgive David Krumholtz's occasional mispronunciations. (Oh, yes.)
P.S. I don't want to spoil the epsiode, but there's a concept at the end that is interestingly reminiscent of SL.
