Personally, I love it. Yes, it is a stereotypical sitcom, but I feel it is one of the better ones.

Re: Is the Big Bang Theory any good ?

very very funny. i laugh more at this show than any other. it is by far my favorite show on TV in years.

i admit that my wife doesn't like it nearly as much as i do. the Sheldon character irritates her.

the 2nd half of season 1 & season 2 are the best. the show goes from centering around Leonard & Penny to centering around one of 2 things: either Sheldon or Penny interacting with Sheldon /the gang.

I started watching reruns this summer and I find it very funny. Sheldon is hilarious.

Sheldon used to be the death of the show but now I really like his character and the blonde got some fantastic boobs. plus I'm a nerd at heart so I love it for that. the repeat from this past monday had me laughing with the whole yoko ono-esque grad students. haha

I like the show a lot and it's very good considering its format. How I Met Your Mother (which runs on the same night), is the superior show. I usually miss the first few minutes of the program and I'm not terribly upset I do. I think some of the nerd jokes are a bit obvious and broad, but then again this is a sitcom on CBS.

Still, I find it far, far better than most shows currently on TV.

I still feel the same way now as I did a few months ago but I actually like it less now than I did then. It still has some moments so I keep watching.

Sometimes following a formula is exactly what is called for... This follows the sitcom formula to a tee, but they do it well.

Exactly what I was going to post.

Re: Is the Big Bang Theory any good ?

Im not sure what the format has to do with anything

Funny is funny

Maybe years ago when the whole Arrested Development, 30 Rock, Office, Parks and Rec format was fresh I could see people making this argument, but seriously, NOW?

TV elitism gives me Douch Chills
