The Big Bang Theory vs. Community.

On some level I sort of get it, like, they're both shows that make a lot of geeky references, but other than that? Absolutely nothing in common. The styles of writing and humour are completely different. You can literally watch less than five minutes of each show and see just from that how utterly unlike each other they are.

I'm also under the impression that BBT kind of makes fun of geekery, whereas Community embraces it wholeheartedly (with the exception of the fourth season, which had writers who didn't really know what they were doing).

Your impression is mostly accurate. BBT is a geek-bashing show that tries too hard to be "geeky" while simultaneously mocking and belittling geeks, whereas Community understands that the best way to appeal to its audience is to NOT make that audience feel like shit for having certain hobbies.

It's hardly bashing, come on now.

It is bashing.

It's not entirely accurate to call it "geek bashing", because it bashes every kind of human being equally, but it does coincidentally bash geeks.

If they weren't airing at the same time, and didn't make such an obvious comparison in terms of both style and popularity, they probably wouldn't have been compared to start with.

I don't find either one the least bit funny....
