The Big Bang Theory

Caught the premiere of The Big Bang Theory on CBS. Won't be catching anymore. The setup is two "nerds" with aggregate IQ's of 360 meet a "beautiful" new neighbor and start whining about her and acting goofy. Couple things: 1) the nerds are named "Sheldon" and "Leonard" in an obvious but ultimately misplaced homage to producer/actor Sheldon Leonard and 2) for guys with really high IQ's they prove to be utterly unresourceful in any situation they come across. Really smart people are good at solving problems. This show so far is a bunch of the same old cliches about gifted people and young pretty actresses for that matter and ultimately shows no grasp of how characters with the IQ's of Sheldon and Leonard would deal with the situations the show creates for them. Ugh.

This show has potential, I want to see where they go with it. While it was clicheish I found myself entertained.
