7/10
Great at the beginning

The Big Bang Theory was a funny take on nerd culture in the early seasons but as time went by the series went downhill when the nerds started pairing up.

First there was Sheldon Cooper who is supposed to be the smartest of the group but he has no social consciousness on how he mistreats everyone especially Leonard. Basically Sheldon is a manchild who is incredibly selfish and cruel.

Then there is Leonard who is basically a poor soul who is mistreated by his heartless mother and Sheldon. Leonard does fight back. He also one of the nerdiest of the group but is somewhat successful with girls.

Third there is Howard a stereotypical Jewish mama's boy. Howard passes himself as a ladies man but fails except when he hooks up with Bernadette.

Fourth there is Raj who starts off unable to talk to girls but after a while he overcomes his fear. Raj is also financially overdependent to his father. Raj also very effeminate and in the later seasons his Indian accent gets annoying.

In the early seasons TBBT embraces nerd culture but the nerds hook up. As for the women the best is Penny and Amy with Penny as the beautiful next door neighbor and Amy as the love interest for Sheldon who is equally as smart as him. Then there is Bernadette Howard's girlfriend and later wife. Bernadette has a squeaky voice which gets on the nerves. Although we do feel sorry for her cause Howard is lazy she also becomes mean and emasculates Howard.

As the seasons go by TBBT becomes less funny. The blame rests squarely on the show's creator Chuck Lorre. Every show he created is basically the same. Create unlikeable characters and be as mean spirited you can be.
