[QUOTE="FMAB_GTO"]Am I the only one that isn't watching that show?ChuteboxI still can't figure out why people watch that show. Because people like it?That must be hard to figure out.
itt: blatant hate for something solely due to its popularity. yellosnolvrMost of the people here have given legit reasons as to why they dislike it (overuse of laugh track, unlikeable characters, recycled jokes, etc.), but yeah you're right everybody who hates it must be some "lol 2mainstream4me" hipster.
[QUOTE="hartsickdiscipl"]You're lying.I find that show to be so predictable that I usually can't watch more than 10 minutes of it.

No, I'm not:?
not very good, though I just about hate sitcoms now (and all network tv, HBO ftw)
watch teh youtube videos of big bang without laugh track, shows you just how unfunny and creepy those shows actually are.
and if you haven't already, watch Arrested Development, thats what a sitcom should be.
The show has something like four or five different jokes that they just cycle between every episode. And that's being generous. It's watchable, but certainly not hilarious.Planeforger
This. That's what I hate about it, its not quite a "you've seen one you've seen 'em all" kind of thing, but it does feel recycled. I'm a nerd, I know my science, so when I hear something that's even partially wrong I can practically quote Sheldon except for the random opener of "actually" and "no" or nothing, where he jumps right in. He is my favorite character though.
Its smart in that its characters say smart things, its not smart in that the show says smart things, or that its creative.
[QUOTE="OG_LIP"]Difference is that Seinfeld is actually really funny. um no. if any show isn't funny without a laughtrack its seinfield...... BBT is far better than that crap. Although Arrested development is the best everPeople on this site hate it, and like dumb shows like Seinfeld.

Big Bang Theory is terrible. Only people who find that show funny is socially awkard nerds who can relate to them.

I personally love it. But then, I love physics, and it's not often that you find a show with physics-related jokes. For example, the one where Sheldon made the riddle with clues suggesting the Higgs boson. I found that hilarious, because I actually knew what it was, or rather is supposed to be. Of course, there are actually a lot of things in the show that I can relate to, such as when Sheldon said something about Ubuntu being his favorite Linux distribution. As it occurs, I'm on Ubuntu right now. I just don't find humorous, and rather intelligent, jokes like that in most shows, so it adds a little to the show for me.
[QUOTE="mitu123"]I agree with that at least. we agree on something?! Yep, I'm shocked as well.[QUOTE="reach3"] um no. if any show isn't funny without a laughtrack its seinfield...... BBT is far better than that crap. Although Arrested development is the best everreach3
Yeah, the only chick on the show gaining a few pounds is the biggest problem that turd of a show has. Un-f*cking-believable.I can't watch an episode without crying form laughter literally and sometimes my stomach hurts form so much laughing. I love sheldon the most hes so funny lol. My only problem is Penny is gaining weight they need to do something about that i mena look at her in the pilot compared to now. oh well shes still hot you guys like it as well?

I like BBT and find it funny though not MASH funny. I think all sitcoms nowadays recycle jokes to some extent. There are only so many things that can be made fun of andn after 60 years of TV and the evolution of the Sitcom, everything has been done. The thing is, I do not like any of the other shows that Chuck Lorre has produced. HIMYM is another show I cannot stand.

Seinfeld is MUCH funnier if you're an adult with a brain and an eye for humor in everyday life.
