Big Bang Theory

Big Bang Theory is my one of the most favorite TV shows ever. So, it was obvious, that it needed an entry here. I started watching it in my college times, when Amit gave the first two seasons to me. I was astounded by the show and completed the both seasons in the weekend; even as I was having my exam on the Monday.

The show basically encompasses the lives of four nerd scientists living in Pasadena, who encounter a socially well connected girl, Penny when she moves into their apartment. The main characters are Sheldon Cooper, Leonard Hofstader, Penny, Howard Wolowitz and Rajesh Kuthrapalli. Sheldon is very intelligent scientist, but is socially awkward, Leonard is the linchpin of the group and loves Penny, Howard is a womanizer and is the only guy in group, not having a PhD, Raj is an Indian immigrant who is working as an astrophysicist who has problem talking in presence of women. In contrast to guys, who like playing MMORPG, comics and are fans of Starwars, Penny has a very social life. But, she finds herself comfortable in their presence and she also loves Leonard. Later, in the series Howard makes Bernadette, a friend  of penny as his girlfriend and they marry also later in series.While Sheldon also meets Amy Farafowler through a dating site.

The show is a total comedy and once we start, it is very difficult to stop. The way in which the lives of these people are displayed is very fun loving and enjoying. They eat various types of cuisines from Thai to Italian and play various games from Paint Ball to Kinect. It is also kind of inspiring to watch this series as it teaches us to live a fun life. It also portrays that geeks and nerds also have a fun loving life of their own, we just have a belief that they are boring.
