Our thanks to them.
P vs NP in The Simpsons and Futurama. Featuring author Simon Singh.
http://simonsingh.net

Simon on Numberphile: http://bit.ly/SimonSinghPlay

Clarification: NP actually stands for non-deterministic (or nondeterministic) polynomial. Simon did us a favour by speaking off-the-cuff on this topic and it is our fault for not cleaning up things in the edit. However Simon's (excellent) book covers this in more detail (pages 157-159 in hard cover) and, in it, he opts for nondeterministic without the hyphen.
