Me personally? I did not care for Game of Thrones.

If I say Big Bang Theory am I just preaching to the choir?

    I abhor BBT. Community was kind of its rival and I absolutely loved it. I saw a quote about the two they said "Big Bang Theory is a dumb show about smart people and Community is a smart show about dumb people."

    It’s an older meme, sir, but it checks out.

    Lol whoever made this is high on their own farts

    They would have been more honest to label the left circle "shows I like" and the right "shows I don't like"

    Community just got to be way to meta. In the beginning it was really good but then none of the episodes worked together to tell a story. It became a show with characters in a sandbox and nothing overarching.

    The episodes stopped being connected but the characters still had growth and the individual growth became the narrative thread. It didn't begin that way but we saw each character have their own arc which sometimes pulled them away from an assumed narrative. I thought that was brilliant since life works like that. It did have a lot of meta references at times, though. Most of them I felt were charming, not all. Would have liked to have seen more Luis Guzman.

    It is my understanding that it gets a lot of hate in here, so yes. I'm not here to claim that it's a good show, but I watched the entire series. It was, at least, entertaining. But I understand a lot of the hate; It felt like "commission-written jokes for focus groups", similar to Friends (which I also have watched every episode of.. yeah, when you're stuck on a ship you tend to binge watch things)

    The Big Bang Theory is Friends. The primary difference being that the characters in TBBT aren't a bunch of generic yuppies. ("How I Met Your Mother" stole that trope)

    I can't stand 5 minutes of BBT but Friends is one of those shows that could run 24/7 and I'd probably be ok with it.

    I really don't like big bang theory. Weirdly though I find young Sheldon somewhat compelling.

    i thought sheldon was more well recieved as an origin story, basically grown up sheldon(now a professor) telling the story of his past. BBT Played more into stereotypes and caricatures. also some female audiences dint like the female leads were dumbed down to make them stupider than the men.
