Howard's mother is my favorite. You never actually see her, and I think she's voiced by Howard himself, but shes a really funny "jewsish mother" stereotype. Also I can do a great impression of her voice which is a plus.

lol for a moment, i was gonna start ramblin about how "the big bang theory" is an amazing and unfinished assumption of the way life started how could you feel nerdy about loving this topic?

Then i saw the show part of it, and i've sadly only seen it twice but loved it to death both times, i happened to see the episode where i believe the star(main character) sheldon? He wanted to chill out with his girls friends, who happened to all be football fans, including her. When sheldon arrives at this house he is just baffled by the science of football, and tries to analyze it in his own way, which is just hilarious. Love the show. yay!

Let me know if they mention Starcraft.


Starcraft isn't popular and hip enough, they play halo. They also only make references everyday people will recognize so the show is basically "LOL XD NERDS HAHA". The edited in laughing also gets on your nerves after a while.

I found it somewhat entertaining for a few episodes, and one or two here and there really shines but it grows old quite fast.

yeah it seems like a better show than most other shows that also force you to laugh by playing those delighted audience noises, but that fact will still keep me from watching.

It's a bit cheesey and annoying sometimes, but mots of what Sheldon does is hilarious, I really hate Leonard though. Wouldn't even consider watching it if sheldon wasn't such a carryboat.

Leonards squinting with the eyes had me plenty annoyed for a while, I got over it though. I've learned to deal with the laughtrack/audience on drugs. It's okay imo with a laughtrack if it's done properly. This show just exaggerates it;
"My new laptop came with windows 7"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA
"Windows 7 is more user-friendly than Windows Vista"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA
"I don't like it."
HAHAROFLOLOLROFLOLMAOJIZZINMYPANTSLOL

Just a liiitle bit over the top.

Other than that I quite enjoy the show. Characters are funny and great together, Sheldon being my favorite seeing him as a way over-exaggerated version of myself. I thought the show was getting worse and worse at early season 3, but now it seems like it's getting better. Dat Finale.

I think it is a good show, but not a great one. Basically they have one really good character that the whole show is completely dependent on and the rest of them are pretty meh in general, with the occasional good moment. It's kinda like How I Met Your Mother in that sense (with Barney), though their other characters are still stronger than the rest of BBT. Also I have a hard time stomaching laugh tracks, They automatically makes shows feel a lot cheaper, and they slow down the pace since you have to add unnatural pauses between each line of dialogue.

So in short. I enjoy it and follow it, but wouldn't consider it close to It's Always sunny In Philadelphia, 30 Rock, Community, The Office or Modern Family (to just name other shows that are currently still running).

the office and modern family are comparable but 30 Rock is ******* awful,every time i hear Tracy Morgan's dry humor I want to punch him in his face.

Well, Tracy Morgan is hardly the best thing about the show (though I don't dislike him), but Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey are both awesome and most of the supporting cast is really good as well (also, whenever Will Arnett makes an appearance it's instant gold).

Definitely unimpressed. It drives me crazy when they're playing a game like WoW or Halo and nothing they say makes any sense. Seriously how hard would it be to even talk to some 15 year old kid for 5 minutes just to make their gaming scenes look real.

That's a problem with like every show ever. Also, most directors/actors seem to think that you play games by mashing every button on the controller at once as fast as you can while wildly moving your hands all over the place.

I love this show. It's funny watching it with my other non-nerd friends and when they have particularily nerdy type jokes and im the only one that gets them it can sometimes be a bit embarassing.

How I Met Your Mother is another great show as well. Pretty much the only two TV shows I follow to any degree.

Love how no one realizes that there IS NO LAUGH TRACK IN THIS SHOW. It is filmed in front of a live studio audience and the laughter you hear is completely real from the audience.. you can go buy tickets and go see the show being filmed yourself if you want.

edit: Sheldon in the ballpit doing the Bazinga! over and over again was one of the funniest things i've ever seen on television

The Penny, Sheldon interaction is the best thing in the show. I love it when they sing Soft Kitty.
