Big Bang Theory is done after 2019
 

I'm not a huge Big Bang Theory Fan (however, the same cannot be said for the cans of Kaley Cuoco's cans - Big, big fan), but one can't dismiss the effect of the show. I'm not sure it's as big as Seinfeld but it's close.

Pretty big deal, IMO.

Apparently Parsons wanted to move on.

I was fairly young when Seinfeld started. Watched it towards the end, and like everyone, have seen all the reruns and quote them. Even if we don't compare the iconic quotes, because IMO that's a runaway for Seinfeld, do you really think Big Bang Theory is that close? Are you talking more popularity or impact on the business?

It's comfort food. If you like it it, you're not gonna get tired of it. But you're not super excited about it either.

Man, I’m not even really a Seinfeld fan but how can you compare Seinfeld to this piece of shit show?

Longevity, and relative popularity.

That's about it.

Seinfeld was the opposite of everything traditional in sitcoms.
Whether you love or hate it, BBT is the refinement and culmination of the traditional sitcom format.

Yeah, that's it. The viewership for this show is un-****ing-real. I think I heard on a podcast or something that the re-runs of the show netted warner brothers a BILLION dollars last year.

Love it or hate it this is the most successful sitcom of our time. Pretty much on the same level as Seinfeld and Friends.

I mean times are way different now, and even with all the other options, to net that kind of pull is pretty amazing. Even if I checked out on it years ago.

It was pretty good when it started. But they ran out of nerdy stuff to joke about, and the later seasons were pretty forgettable...

May as well. The characters have all become so unlikable compared to early seasons, and their personalities have either done full 180s or become Flanderized.

It has definitely impacted the expansion and rise in popularity of “nerd culture” especially when it comes to comic related interests.

I loved Seinfeld. Knew it would be a hit from the first time it was on TV.

BBT is a good and ingenious show. Nerds in the real world. That are smarter than CP combined.

The story line would have to evolve as the kids get older. Kids would be super smart, or normal or interested in sports. Sheldon's kid interested in Geology.

Parsons is 43. He is playing a 35 year old playing a kid like person.

And yeah-Cuoco.

never seen a single episode before.

They made alot of money!! The residuals the actors get for this show have to be ****ing insane.

This.

Mellissa Rausch is nothing to sneeze at either. Every time it’s on, I tell my wife, “Hey Wife, Bernadette has huge tits.”

I have no idea why my wife stays with me.

Interesting.....honestly I think Seinfeld was overrated and not enjoyable for me. I find BBT more entertaining.

It's all in your view of things.
