TV Spotlight – The Big Bang Theory

“A fear of heights is irrational.  Fear of falling however is prudent and evolutionary”

Ok so when I was thinking about what I would want my first article on this site to be I thought, what is universally appreciated by geeks?  It came to me almost straight away, The Big Bang Theory.  This has been one of my favourite TV shows in the past few years just because it works on so many levels.  I came across it by total fluke, flicking through the channels after my wife had gone to bed and I paused and thought….is that David from Roseanne??  I laughed to myself for a moment and thought wow I bet this is pants, after literally 30 seconds of watching I realised I could not have been more wrong.  After getting really into the first season I decided not to get too attached as I thought not enough people would “get it” to justify a second season.  Again wrong!  Season Four recently out in the UK and the show picking up awards and nominations left, right and centre this is THE show for a geek of any level.
