Ive only had the opurtunity to see th piolet but it was really funy.

I watch the show in Monday CBS sitcoms. I would call it average. I don't find it overwhelming awesome but I also don't find it terrible. The show kind of has the best of best world. Some people will laugh at the geek references while others laugh at the main characters (minus the girl) inability to understand what is considered normal.

Theory or sitcom, they're still both cool to talk about!

it is litrally the ONLY sitcom i can stand to watch

Same here, unless you consider futurama as a sitcom

I'm pretty much aa less intelligent version of Sheldon!

My friends say the same about me.

After reading this thread, I decided to give it a go. I've watched a third of episode one. It's got some funny moments, it's like the American version of IT crowd. I do find it a bit cheesy...and some of the stuff they make fun of, like having over 200 friends on facebook he never met, isn't something I personally would laugh at, as I know a few people like that and it's sad. Also why is it the girl is never geeky? Geeky girls exists! I suppose I'm one of them. It would be nice if there was at least one female geek!

[Pandora's_Box]

There is. And she's awesome.

[Dr Weir]

Oh cool! The blond just exists to portray a male sexual fantasy. Not really much of a character from what I've seen of her so far.

It's interesting you say that actually.

Watch the episodes with Leslie Winkle (the female geek). I think you'll get a kick out of them.

I love the episodes she is in just because she is constantly insulting my least favorite main character

[Pandora's_Box]

How can you hate Sheldon?

Must I disown you again?

[jelgate]

I said least favorite not hate. Note the difference. Sometimes his antics and weird quirks annoy me.

As for disowning me, it will strengthen my resolve to get on your good side again

penny is there, well for leonard and the unrequited wuv bits, but also to juxtapose just how 'abnormal' the guys are

and yeah, leslie gets some zingers in

[Dr Weir]

I find Penny abnormal because she's not a real person.

Well by that logic all the characters are abnormal.

The thing is the show has their fair share of sterotypes. They show has four people who who for a lack of a better word are geek sterotypes. I think Penny is no different. She is the sterotype of a attractive blonde woman raised in the modern pop culture. The point is showing how the two groups differ and learn to find common ground as the show continues
