You have a point, there. I think the key issue is that the writing is inconsistent. And the "telling, not showing" makes things pretty unconvincing for the viewer, since TV is a visual medium.
My primary beef with this issue is that we're told the guys are "pathetic losers" and Penny is normal, even though the guys are so very, very accomplished and successful. Do they have some negative traits? Yes, sure, of course. But she's not any better than they are. She's not. She doesn't represent a happy, psychologically healthy, well-adjusted life, which is apparently what the show wants us to believe. Watching Star Trek makes you a loser, drinking and fighting are cool and socially acceptable. That's the message, here.
