I liked the first few seasons. The premise was great before Penny and all the girlfriends ruined the show at about season 4. I think 2 and 3 are the best seasons. The dorky people who never date and aren't cool is something they SHOULD HAVE KEPT. You NEVER see this on any other show! Everyone is super skinny and looks and acts a certain, prescribed way on EVERY other show. I miss Howard being a pervy dork. Just his harmless cluelessness cracked me up. R.I.P. Mrs. Wolowitz. (The real actress died, irl.) She always made me laugh, sounds like my Italian house.

“The Big Bang Theory,” This more conventional sitcom has not one but two nerds as leading men, math brainiacs who live together and have no life until a sexy blonde moves in next door. Television used to relegate the nerd to the role of sidekick or worst best friend;But now,the nerd is the hero, and he even gets the girl. Homosapiens haven’t evolved all that much since prehistoric times; the female of the species still seeks the best provider, even if he’s the one with an asthma inhaler and a pocket protector who plays Xbox Live and collects “Star Trek” memorabilia. Today’s tool-using man is a tool.
Although it's stereotypical intellectualism is a bit exaggerated the show manages to avoid slipping into banality, at least for the first season. I like that it shows how intelligence is as much a obstacle for "exceptional children" as any other mentally challenging affliction. How parents, teachers, and other adults are unable to guide those children or even understand them. High intellect leaves a child isolated and alone without guidance. Told from the grownup view the developed idiosyncrasies of high intellect become understandable to the viewing audience thru the usage of well-played comedic situations.

This show is a gold mine of humor. I have all the seasons, but lost the first. It was fun to go back, and see how all,the characters,have grown, and changed. I had forgotten that in the first season Sheldon swears, and DOESN'T knock his three times on the door!

Great show. Easy to see why they're on for 12 seasons and will be back for more. Funny and just entertaining. The DVD is a good pick me up after a long day and the show isn't on TV or any recordings left on TiVo
