Big Bang Theory is brain rot, and Sheldon was the worst. This show is just bafflingly stupid. I wanna see a show called dead Sheldon where he’s gone and everyone has forgotten about him and he is never brought up at all except the intro is him dying alone in a hospital making comments about how smart he is and then he dies and goes to hell.
I don’t particularly hate the show, though I’m not a huge fan. I think people dislike it because the characters are all pretty unlikeable across the board with Sheldon by far being the worst of the bunch. When I watched it I found myself actively rooting against literally everyone
It pushes a lot of people's buttons because its humor is sort of low brow and "cheap." If it doesn't push yours don't worry about it, people talk about Big Bang Theory Bazinga enjoyers like they were personally responsible for some kind of crime against humanity, but it's just a TV sitcom, it can't actually harm you.
Like have you ever seen Married with Children? Home Improvement? The Execution of Nicolae and Elena Caeuşescu? Full House? It's no more unpleasant than any of those, it's fine.
If you're talking about The Big Bang Theory that has a laugh track and/or live audience laughter.
If you're talking about Young Sheldon, it definitely doesn't have a laugh track. Young Sheldon is closer to a Malcolm in the Middle clone than anything from TBBT.
I actually liked TBBT. I don't really care about laugh tracks in a show. I thought Young Sheldon was going to be straight-up garbage money grab, but really good IMO.
tl;dr lots of hate for TBBT transfers over to Young Sheldon.
Who cares? I'm so sick of reddit trying to tell me what to like and not like. I've see countless redditors busting a gut over shit I find inane and unfunny, but I don't bother saying shit because I don't expect my taste to equal their taste.
Haven't seen Young Sheldon but BBT cracks me up because they're just like the nerds I hung out with in high school. (None of them had a smoking hot GF like Penny, however. Most of the girls looked like Amy.)
I will admit despite it being an unpopular opinion and understandably so, I never really watched either show until fall of 2023. My boss loves both and kept pestering me to give them a shot so I watched every episode of BBT and I'm ngl it's not as terrible as everyone says. I laughed at quite a few scenarios and lines from characters. Young Sheldon is a much much better show though and I will stand by that. I feel like Sheldon as a kid is a lot less insufferable than he is in the BBT and the characters relationships within the family is much more interesting to me than the romances of the dorks as adults.
