One of the episodes of SG1 had the source code of the Replicators on screen, iirc it was the HTML output for the Bank of Canada.
I just googled it and found http://thedailywtf.com/articles/Stargate-Code-of-the-Replica... so that might be a fun one to do a deep dive on.

Yes, thanks. I have that one in the queue to do a video on. But thanks for that link as I'm trying in the text beneath the videos to credit people who discover these things and I'll add that.

Here's another one if you don't already have it. Numb3rs shows Objective-C/UIKit code (UITableViewCell and NSArray *crayon)

I went out for beers with those guys one time. They were all pretty cool individuals.
It's funny because when I arrived at the restaurant, they were easy to spot. It was the table full of pony tails and neckbeards. (Not joking)

You were replying to a comment about moviecode.tumblr though. Just FYI.

The root comment was about moviecode, but its immediate child was about dailywtf.

The "I love the site btw" referred to moviecode though since it was a reply to jgrahamc, hence his question.

Do Person of Interest please :). They actually used Shellshock on-screen as an exploit quite soon after it was in the news, and also AFAIR featured Stuxnet dumps.
Revolution had some Lisp code in the first season[0].

Please submit stuff you see to the Tumblr so I can keep track of it all.

Did you take a look at the 6502 assembler in "The Terminator". Maybe you can find the bug that stopped AHnold from killing Sarah Connor.

They really should have used the code that controlled the ghosts in Pac-Man.

Arrival has an R Jupyter Notebook featured about half way through when they're doing analysis.
And 24 had Chloe walking over to a terminal and doing `svn unlock xyz` once.

I bet you'll find a trove of bugs in "Whiz Kids" and "Automan"

Oh man, I loved Whiz Kids when it was on TV. I'm not specifically looking for bugs or 8 bit stuff just really spelunking into where the code came from. The Westworld one is very interesting because it's 1973 and Westworld was the first film with computer graphics in it... I finally figured out what's being shown.

Not a movie but there's a wonderful source listing in Lost Universe (I think) where the C code starts with some macros that use setjmp/longjmp to implement gosub/return. Will try to find specific episode/timestamp when I get home.

I had a bunch of screenshots from a movie, I'll get back to you as soon as I found them. The VBA code is quite funny.
Next up: two episodes of Knight Rider, Westworld (1973) and Swordfish.
