I know I responded to this already. I just had to re-read the thread to find where anyone even said "...that The Big Bang Theory is quality television because a lot of people watch it." No one said that. There were posts stating mainly preferences like: "really enjoy it."..."it's a funny show"..."I like the show a lot" etc. I said it was successful and popular. For someone calling out the use of logical fallacies, you used the strawman fallacy where I bolded your words. Yet, you were the one tossing "strawman" out to another poster.
