The Big Bang Theory TV Show Reviews
“…there's a reason it became an immediate hit—five reasons, in
fact, and that's just in front of the camera. The show hardly needs my
endorsement, but I'll give it anyway: Highly recommended.”
Blu-ray.com
“It is always great when a sit-com comes off as smart. That is rare
enough but the one under review here is literally genius.”
hometheaterinfo.com
“Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady have really created one of the most unique
and funniest shows on television. It is packed with some great pop culture
aspects merged with a very creative use of scientific jargon and rapid-fire
dialogue (mostly courtesy of the amazing Jim Parsons).” MediaMikes.com.
(season 1)
“You want flat-out funny? Look no further.” USA Today
“The fourth-floor friends are back for a third season of nerdtastically
laughable antics. From guest appearances by Wil Wheaton and Katee Sackhoff, to
goth love, internet dating and North Pole expeditions, The Big Bang Theory: The
Complete Third Season is full of laughs and some interesting new changes as the
series continues to evolve…Highest-rated comedy in the 18–49 demo.
Thirty-one award nominations and nine wins. You do the math!” DVD Verdict
(season 3)
“What is very surprising for a sit-com like this is the attention that
is paid to presenting the characters. While many of their traits are greatly
exaggerated for comic effect there is an underlying sense of reality to them.
All of the principles are afforded an opportunity to grow. Even Sheldon tends to
become more accepting of Penny even though intellectually she is far beneath
him. Much of what works here is how talented the cast is. Galecki has appeared
on several films but is best known for his role in ‘Roseanne’. He has a look
and feel that is immediately empathetic with the audience. Parsons is absolutely
perfect as the brilliant but excessively neurotic Sheldon. He steals almost
every scene. Cuoco is having quite a career so far. She gained recognition in
the sit-com ‘8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter’ moving on from
that to the closing season of ‘Charmed’. She is a natural comedienne who is
not afraid to downplay looks and depend on her impeccable comic timing. This is
a gem of its genre and something that will not disappoint…”
hometheaterinfo.com (season 2)
“still loaded with laughs and packs an hysterical comical punch. That
the writers of the series have been able to maintain such a high level of
quality this far into the series is both a testament to their skill and the
skills of the cast who make the material shine.” Blu-rayDefinition.com
(season 5)
“..one of best current comedies is The Big Bang Theory…As a show
which focuses on a group of "nerds”, The Big Bang Theory could have easily run
out of material very quickly, once it drained all of the stereotypical material.
And while the show certainly ran with the nerd stuff, it also looked past it by
exploring the characters and their relationships. By daring to take the obvious
(Leonard and Penny) and twist it, The Big Bang Theory remains fresh, providing
consistent laughs and never feeling stale." DVD Sleuth (season 4)
“Prickly Sheldon has become a character to love, and Parsons is doing
something rare on network TV: making intellectualism admirable, even
heroic.” Entertainment Weekly
“It is really rare that a show in its fifth season gets better and
better with each episode. I always thought that the first few seasons where the
funniest but after re-watching this season it is clear and the show’s best is
it current episodes. This season also has cameos from Stephen Hawkins and
Leonard Nimoy, can you ask for anything more?” MediaMikes.com
(season 5)
“Frankly, any show that weaves in multiple jokes about Comic-Con and
employs its own science consultant can't be all bad.” Variety
