Big Bang Theory

[DJ's left nut]

I hate this show.

It's a 'smart' show for stupid people.

"Oh you just don't get it...."

Yeah, that's it. A show that supplanted 2 and a Half Men in mass market media consumption in this country is just too damn smart for me.

They make 'sciency' references as stand-alone attempts at humor that aren't actually clever and definitely aren't funny and in so doing get some sort of odd rep as being brilliant. Mentioning Schrodinger's Cat without any meaningful effort at a joke doesn't make anything intelligent. It's just a fly-by name drop of sorts.

You want clever and funny? Watch Silicon Valley. If you want stupid but funny, watch How I Met Your Mother and just skip the final 2 seasons.

Big Bang Theory is neither of those things.

Final 2 seasons ruined the entire show. Still won't watch it on Hulu.

Yup.

I can't even watch the re-runs. The ending was THAT bad.

How do you blow a landing so badly that you wipe out everything that happened before it? Even Seinfeld didn't do that.

It blows my mind how they thought that was a good idea. Like you, Hulu can keep 'em. Which is a shame because it really was a good show.

Caught a few episodes when the wife was watching awhile back until I remembered how it all ends and I had to quit watching.

If the show had ended after 3 or 4 seasons the ending wouldn't have been that bad at that point.

After 10 seasons it became clear that Ted and Robin should not be together. I was so sick of ted pining over her. Their characters had grown so much since those first couple seasons that the ending was a slap in the face.

That is a cautionary of locking yourself into an ending and not allowing the story to change as the characters do.
