Big Bang Theory: Main actors agree to $1 million per episode...
Not bad work if you can get it...
It's $1 million each for the actors per episode. The advertisers must pay ridiculous amounts to sell their products. http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/08/04/bi...y-cast-raises/ |

They have a professor from Cal Tech that checks all the science on the white board in Sheldon's apartment and in any jokes for accuracy. They even have members from CalTech, including students in the audience at times. They did the first episodes.

I think The Big Bang Theory is somewhere in between a Jeff Dunham act and the R. Budd Dwyer public suicide clip.

You don't have to know the words to get the joke. 9 times out of 10, that is the joke. The fact that they're using big words and talking like nerds.

They could have Neil Degrasse Tyson, Stephen Hawking, and Carl Sagan's ghost checking every second of it and it'd still be about as funny as an Al Qaeda snuff film.

The T.V. universe was in a ****ed up state,
Then 7 years ago The Big Bang Theory was created...Great!!! Lost began to cool, Charlie Sheen began to drool, Breaking Bad was ****ing cool, We watched The Wire (We watched The Walking Dead). NCIS, Criminal Minds, Mike and Molly Unraveling the mystery, That all started with The Big Bang Theory. |

I find this show really funny. Of course, I knew these people/nerds while in college. Penny was named Christy, but the same thing.

It's true that the earlier seasons were much better. Like any tv show, after several seasons the writing is getting stale.
I would recommend going back and watching some of the first 3 or 4 seasons of it, but the ones of you who can't understand it now wouldn't be able to understand those either. And yes, you just don't understand it. |

Does anyone here take issue with Penny playing the dumb blonde stereotype?

Usually those few I run into that don't like the show, don't like it for a few reasons:
1. They don't get the jokes 2. It's not stereo-typed, profanity, soft-core porn laced innuendo in every other sentence 3. It's not about pot smoking, all night drink binging and how many people can I **** in 1 evening 4. Ain't no baby momma's or daddy's |

Well, obviously, that's just your own personal preference. It has very high ratings for reason. It's well liked and popular.
