The Big Bang Theory: New Episode Tonight

The Big Bang Theory
B+

"When it premiered a year ago, The Big Bang Theory just felt like a dumb show about smart guys. It made fun of its central duo ? best friends/ roommates Leonard (Roseanne's Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon (Jim Parsons) ? because they were brilliant but socially inept science nerds. Now, Parsons has become the show's quivering, riveting center. Prickly Sheldon has become a character to love, and Parsons is doing something rare on network TV: making intellectualism admirable, even heroic. ?Ken Tucker"

"A girl Wolowitz has a major crush on falls for Leonard."

 

Kaley Cuoco FTW

 

Best. Show. Ever.

 

I've really gotten into this show. I just wish that they'd ditch the laugh track, but it's certainly an amusing show, and what's even funnier is that I get all the geeky jokes that they make.

 

LATEST EPISODE
The White Asparagus Triangulation
Airs: Monday November 24, 2008

"Sheldon is overexuberant that Leonard finally has a girlfriend matching his high standards."

 

LATEST EPISODE

'Sheldon irks the gangs with his obession with proper Christmas gift protocol. Lenoard's crushed when Penny dates a colleague of his.'

 

I have Leonard Nemoy's DNA?

Very funny episode!

 

LATEST EPISODE
The Killer Robot Instability
Airs: Monday January 12, 2009

"Penny's criticism of Wolowitz's romantic life pushes him into depression and AWOL for a fighting robot battle the rest of guys are depending on him for."

 

Lot of really funny lines in that episode.

 

LATEST EPISODE
The Friendship Algorithm
Airs: Monday January 19, 2009

"Sheldon develops an algorithm to make friends."

Yeah, that'll do it.

 

I'm a late-comer to this show, but it's already up there with The Office, and 30 Rock in my book. I'll say right now that I get more big laughs per minute during TBBT, than The Office.

Sheldon's trash-talking in last week's episode was pure gold.

 

LATEST EPISODE
The Financial Permeability
Airs: Monday February 2, 2009

"When Sheldon comes up with a plan to fix Penny's finances, it leads to Leonard coming face-to-face with her ex, Kurt."

 

love the show

 

This one felt a bit like filler, leading to more angst from Leonard. Had its moments, but it wasn't the best episode of the series.

 

LATEST EPISODE

"A visit from Leonard's mother ends up bringing him and Penny closer."

 

No new episode tonight; next one is March 2nd.

Decent enough episode. The finale was priceless.

The Big Bang Theory

"Nobel Prize-winning astrophysicist Dr. George Smoot makes a cameo as himself. It'll get a 93 share at MIT."

 

Even better, Summer Glau is in this episode, very funny episode!

 

Started this show last week and am now up to date. It's brilliant. Possibly even better than HIMYM.

 

LATEST EPISODE
The Work Song Nanocluster

"Penny's business selling hair products out of her apartment gets out of hand when an over-caffeinated Sheldon takes charge."

 

Ok, this is now definitely better than HIMYM
