I made the mistake of trying to watch a show called "Big Bang Theory", which I understand is a pretty big hit

I think I survived about an episode and a half on BBT. Probably because I went to a technical college in the 70s and the show rings closer to a "reality show" for most of the guys in my class than a comedy show. Even at comedy, it's "let's make fun of the geeks, they'll never complain" variety. As opposed to the "let's make men either jerks, blowhards or total narcissists and make fun of them" comedy shows out there.

No thank you, I can find other ways to waste 30 minutes of my day...

Interesting. I find the show really entertaining. It is pretty much my social life.
Husband is a materials scientist, his friends are all scientists of different sorts.
I think it's great having a show with hyper or urber intelligent people just trying to get by.
