   The Big Bang Theory is the easily the best and funniest sitcom since a long time. It has new ideas, has something for geeks but also normal viewers (I showed it to friends who are in no way a geek shown in TBBT) and almost every scene is absolutely funny. Sometimes jaw-dropping funny. Sitting there and thinking: "Did he really say what I just heard?" The first season shows something new, the next seasons are even better. I can accept that some people may have a problem with the geeky stuff, the long sentences and to understand what is meant, but I cannot accept that this is not funny at all. Those who write that just want to put the ratings down. Really, nothing more than that. How can one give less than 5 points for this? Sorry, I won't see which sitcoms you rate higher. Sheldon is the most intimidating geek ever seen on TV, the others are not far behind. The only issue I have at the moment is that most jokes base on sexual relationships or intersexual behaviour. Some episodes are almost classics. Great unique episodes you will never forget and you do not experience watching other sitcoms.… Expand

   While it has its moments, the fact is that this show is laughing at these nerds, not with them. A straight-forward, mindless sitcom from a guy that should be able to do better than this. Now we know why this pilot was shot down last year.… Expand

   A fresh idea but executed poorly. Pandering to masses, BBT explains in excruciating detail any reference to geek or pop culture and eventually becomes just another sitcom. Over use of laugh track detracts from actual jokes, while many of its characters rely on the same gimmick far too often.… Expand
