  • Summary: Created by writer/producers Chuck Lorre (of Two and a Half Men) and Bill Prady (of Gilmore Girls) comes The Big Bang Theory, a sitcom that shows what happens when hyperintelligent roommates/physicists Sheldon and Leonard meet Penny, a beautiful woman moving in next door--and realize they know next to nothing about life outside of the lab. Rounding out the crew are the smarmy Wolowitz, who thinks he's as sexy as he is brainy, and Koothrappali, who suffers from an inability to speak in the presence of a woman.
    The show distinguishes itself by being unafraid to toss scientific references and technobabble into an otherwise standard sitcom, even employing a physicist to keep things accurate. In doing so, it allows Sheldon and Leonard to do for science what Frasier's Crane brothers did for fine dining, art, and opera.

  3. Through season 3 now and its looking like season 4 will be the same. The Big Bang Theory Season 3 8,2/10
  4. Have you liked The Big Bang Theory's previous seasons? If so you'll like this one as it really is just more of the same. It's still funny, and they added more characters that will hopefully expand upon in the next season. But there's no shaking the fact that it feels like the writers are afraid to take risks with this show. Still it's funny and if your a fan you'll still like it. Expand
