Comedy Recipe: take four science geeks, a blonde bombshell, a good dose of strong sciptwriting, add appealing character acting and you have a show that makes for good, relaxing tv viewing. Perfect background fare, 'thetvreviewguy' always enjoys 'The Big Bang Theory', a show that makes physics funny and 'dumbs up' in references. Be it Sheldon's uber-nerdiness, Penny's likability or Leonard's unsuccessful attempts to be cool, TBBT provides a good dose of humour served up on a plate for the discerning laugh-hunter. Forget what you hear about American television being great; wrong - it's almost all rubbish. However, the top 2% is excellent and while shows like 'The Big Bang Theory' may not be up to 'Wire' standards, it is a great little programme that never fails to have 'thetvreviewguy' chortling and/or guffawing. It reminds this 30-something reviewer of the limitless possibilities we can enjoy in our twenties and is a funny take on the identity building at that age. According to 'thetvreviewguy's laughter equation, wit plus strong casting equals good comedy gold; again, he wishes he'd studied more during his science classes in school. TBBT definitely tickles the funny bones.
