Yah but there is something deeply wrong happening here or perhaps you think it's great

Yes binary thinker you're correct

It's a lot easier to stroke your own ego than it is to acknowledge that millions of people watched every episode live when it aired. Cry about it I guess? Or be smug? Whatever. https://screenrant.com/the-big-bang-theory-most-watched-seasons-ranked/

Probably my breaking point was the series premiere of Friends, and the girls in school I liked, liked that show, and I realized i should get better priorities with my romantic interests. But yes, my ego.

I enjoyed it. Watched it randomly on TV every time it happened to run, and even rewatched all seasons in order a few years ago.

I'm an autistic nerd, so their setting is interesting to me, and I find the parody of the nerd scene on point. The humor is enough to make me laugh, although not a masterpiece, so overall decent series to watch.

IT Crowd is geek culture done right; you laugh with them.

Big Bang Theiry is geek/nerd blackface; you laugh at them.

Explain what marketing tactic they used, that made the show last 12 seasons, but doesn't work on 99% of other shows which get cancelled long before that
