If I remember correctly this appeared on one of the message boards and was
produced as a pilot for a series.
So being a librarian I couldn't not watch it, I certainly retired for the
night with a smile on my face, although I'm not sure it really enhances the
roles stereotype in any way... My husband was highly amused by the "Get your
own Geek" line.

The Librarian: Quest for the Spear
Monday 24, 21:00, Sky One
Fantasy adventure starring Noah Wyle. When meek academic Flynn Carsen
lands a post at New York's Metropolitan Library, he doesn't expect his
job description to include saving the world. But his duties involve
guarding the magical artefacts in the library's keeping, and when a
sinister brotherhood steals part of the legendary Spear of Destiny, he
embarks on a globe-trotting adventure to retrieve it
