Amazon.com The delightful sitcom The Big Bang Theory revolves around a character type rarely seen on television: The alpha geek. Physicists Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon (Jim Parsons) get their lives shaken up when an attractive young woman named Penny (Kaley Cuoco) moves in to the apartment across from theirs. The key to the show, though, is not that they both fall haplessly in love--Leonard does, but Sheldon remains impermeably aloof and caustic about anything resembling romance or human relationships in general. While the push and pull of Leonard's yearning for Penny motivates much of the series' ongoing plot, the show's real drive comes from Sheldon's fantastic combination of obsessive-compulsive neurosis and grandiose obliviousness. He's a brilliant comic creation, imperious and dorky, a seamless collaboration of clever writing and an inspired performance by Parsons. Whether Sheldon loses his job for insulting his new boss, or finds his ego bruised by a child prodigy, or finds himself unable to bear being part of a lie that Leonard has told, he attacks the world with a relentless need to assert his supremacy--and the results are deeply funny. The triumph of The Big Bang Theory is that everyone is written with genuine affection; what could have been a lifeless parade of stereotypes--Two Nerds and a Hot Chick--becomes instead a charming collision of cultures. The familiar stuff (computer games, comic books, social incompetence) has the grit of specificity; the show understands the difference between Halo and Halo 3, knows what the Bottle City of Kandor is, and grasps the infinite variety of ways in which a conversation can go terribly awry. (Penny gets less nuance, but Cuoco still gives her a distinctive personality.) Kudos as well to supporting players Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar, who bring their own variations on geekiness to the table, and to great appearances by some of Galecki's former cohorts on Roseanne--Sara Gilbert as geekette Leslie and Laurie Metcalf as Sheldon's fundamentalist mother. All in all, one of the most winning sitcoms in years. --Bret Fetzer

Big Bang March 9, 2010 Sarah Jones (Oklahoma) Couldn't find it in stores in my town, purchased it on-line last minute and did standard shipping, hoping it would come in by my husbands birthday and it did! In new condition, as advertised, no problems.
Great comedy from a non-gamer, science teacher perspective. March 7, 2010 Trena Parks (Kodak, Tn) I am neither a male, a nerd, a game player, or a comic book collector and I think this is the best comedy on TV right now. I am a science teacher, so I appreciate the science commentary, but the character interaction is what I enjoy most. How can anyone not find Sheldon's social awkwardness, extreme OCD, and deadpan delivery of his lines hilarious? Howard's relationship with his mother and Raj, his choice of clothing, and his way of hitting on women are definitely funny. Raj's remarkable change from shy geek to charm personified when inebriated is sheer genius, and Leonard's attempts to balance a relationship between his friends and neighbor Penny is the defining thread. This show has some interesting situational comedy as well as some fantastic one-liners. As the show proceeds, and the audience finds out more about the familial backgrounds, the characters become even more remarkable. This show is unique, and as I've commented to my husband on several occasions, does require a certain level of intelligence to appreciate. Simply put, it's new, different and refreshing, but may not appeal to someone who doesn't pay close attention to the dialogue. The show has only gotten better in seasons 2 and 3 so I'd advise anyone to stick with it and give it a chance!
