My problem with every bit of it that I've seen, is that they try to make their characters every type of nerd all at once. That's not how it works. People are obsessed with a couple niche things, they are nerds about their little area. All the characters on BBT are into, like, everything that non nerd people find nerdy. It's absurd. No one is like that.

And from what I've seen, it has a tone of laughing at nerds, not laughing with them. Maybe that changes from season to season, but what I saw was enough. Just a very grating show to watch that feels like it was made for people who have that one nerdy niece or nephew that they don't really understand but hey, this must be what they're like with their friends!
