my two cents

The way I see it, the problem with it is that the premise of the show seems to be "Look at these losers! Isn't it funny how nerdy they are? Look at their ridiculous hobbies! Isn't that silly?"

The jokes might be funny, but not a single one of the "smart" or "geeky" jokes is supposed to be funny on its own. We are not supposed to laugh at joke, we are supposed to laugh at the fact that they MADE the joke in the first place. I understand that the show wouldn't be reachable if it were nothing but physics jokes, but it pisses me off that TBBT can't seem to be funny without mockery.

To me, the Big Bang Theory, while full of geeky jokes, is less about geeks being humorous and more about humor at the expense of geeks.

also I want to slap Leonard in the face every time he appears on the screen, yet somehow he is supposed to be the ~hero~ or some shit? I seriously cannot with that dude.

This is my problem with it, too. It's like they took the nerd stereotype from the 90s and multiplied it. Very "oh aren't the geeks cute in their abnormalness" rather than actually laughing at it from the inside.
