Board 8 > The Big Bang Theory isn't as bad as I thought it would be.

(+) Yeah! (+)

That's probably because Sheldon has become one of my favorite television characters. Ever.

Is it bad that I watch that show and think of some of you?

That would be a compliment.

I thought he'd be the reason. Examples?

My Little Phineas and Ferb: Summer is Magic!

He talks to people they way I wish I could talk to people.

I find it utterly hilarious.

Sheldon can be pretty spot on, but the show as a whole is really subpar, in my opinion.

No no, I meant which b8er you thought of.

How is it SubPar?

Does it lean a bit to heavily on Stereotypes? Perhaps a tad. But it's very self-aware of the concept and never feels forced or out of place. Penny can perhaps be a bit "too" Midwestern Blonde, but even she has her moments.

I have only seen a handful of episodes here and there, but the show seems to go for really easy, predictable jokes that you can see coming from a mile away (much like two and a half men, from the same creator). It is just comfortable, safe, easily digestible television...which is fine, but compared to it's time slot competitor community, it just seems really formulaic and by the numbers.

Sheldon CAN be funny. He only is like 30% of the time. Mostly because of the pretty sub par or sometimes even horrible jokes.


The rest are almost never funny.


I've only seen 5ish episodes or so though

The little bits of it I've seen show an overuse of laugh track, which can make any show seem unfunny. It's probably still not comedy gold but I bet it would be funnier without it.

There is no laugh track, its live audience

Oh. Then those people really need to lay off the bong because they laugh at ****ing everything.

When I went to be ina TV show audience they told us to laugh at everything!

Falconnnnnnn PUNCH!

I wonder if any smartass ever gets fed up and starts laughing in the middle of lines, just interrupting the actors with wild bursts of inappropriate laughter.

They'll kick him out so fast.

IIRC, that happened in one gag reel take.

I think the actor went "Really? For that?"
