Anyone else watch this show? I think it's fantastic. Great writing!

I'm guessing you just don't like sitcoms.

LOL. You posted a single short sentence, then you edited it, and you still can't get the grammar correct. It's not surprising that you don't get Big Bang Theory. It's WAY over your head.

I can get behind some sitcoms... Community is one of my favorite shows on television. for some reason I have always liked How I met your mother even though it got old after awhile. but I cant deal with this show. Its more then likely not worse than most things on TV I just cant stand how it misrepresents nerd culture.

It is way better, way funnier, and way smarter than either of those shows.

Did you hate science in school? Just asking. Maybe the science in the show turns you off.

LOL.....makes you chuckle to hear that people are arguing over whether or not they like a show because of the "canned laughter".

But then again, there are shows that people find hilarious I find idiotic and banal and can't figure out why people watch them.

It's all in your personal taste.

The Big Bang Theory is not a smart show. It's a dumb relationship comedy wearing thick glasses and a pocket protector. The jokes sometimes reference science and geek culture, but rarely in a way that requires you to understand the reference to get the joke (and if you do need to get the reference they explain it).

That was 1.5 years ago though so things may have changed between then and now.

I read an article that said they added canned laughter in post-production. I saw no reason to question its validity at the time.

This.

I like BBT, but it is not a "science" show.

Do Big Bang Theory viewers really view this as some sort of smart, edgy show?

Pablo · 10-26-2013, 03:02 PM

Although I will say it's much, much better than Two Broke Girls. Whoever brought that show up deserves an eye-stabbing.

My wife watched TBBT and TBG regularly. I can at least tolerate listening to TBBT in the background. Two Broke Girls is an abortion having an abortion.

That was horrible. Painful even. Is this typical of what the show is now?

It is very popular among actual scientists.
