But seriously… That a major TV show is actually using IPv6 addressing (or pretending to) is an awesome thing in my 
opinion.

More curious, for me, is their choice of a hardware vendor: Alacron, Inc. ( http://www.alacron.com/ ) (Source: Address in screenshot: 2002:sc0c:0198:0 ... 22:42ff:fe2d:48563 -- making the MAC prefix ??:22:42. `grep '^..2242' /usr/share/nmap/nmap-mac-prefixes` = "002242 Alacron", double-checked as the only match against the latest http://standards.ieee.org/develop/regauth/oui/oui.txt )
