big bang Theory Show TV

As you might guess by my forum name I'm a bit of a science fiction fan. I have lost count of the number of people that assume I would be a fan of this offensive drivel over the years.

Sorry to be the lone voice of dissent on this one, but this show demeans people on a variety of levels and I can't abide it, much as I've tried to watch it on a number of occasions (hell you can't really avoid it on commercial TV!)

This blog post perfectly sums up why I hate (not a strong enough word) this show.

When I watch the show I am not laughing at them, I am seeing the little piece of them inside me. Best show on tv right now if they actually played the new episodes when they say they would.

I don't think it demeans anyone.
I am certain that there is a little bit of Nerd in each and everyone of us and this show is just IMHO satirical and not demeaning.
It is fun and entertaining which it should be, Far to much nasty,violent, demeaning and awful stuff on the News and a bit of light satire is good for the soul :yahoo:
But each to our own opinion, we are ALL diferant:yahoo:

Oh Channel 9.

After all it is just a bit of light entertainment on Television & not to be taken seriously,
& the best thing is you can always turn it off

Most comedies involve us laughing at other people. However, apart from a few occasions I think BBT works so well for me because I can look at much of what is said/done and relate it to myself. So I'm laughing at myself.

I was a bit surprised at your response to the show.
Thinking about it, I would expect to have taken the jokes more personally myself and been offended if they are offensive towards the characters.
I dont think that is the intent, but I will think about it next time the show is on.
