I watched one random episode of BBT after it was recommended to me by a few people. That one episode was enough for me to decide that I never want to see that show again, and also that I should disregard all recommendations from the people who said I should watch it.

Moss, how many times have I told you to shave those sideburns?!

I would take the notoriously bad American attempt at the IT Crowd over big bang theory any day

British humour is infinitely funnier than the laugh track pandering American sitcoms.

IT crowd 100%

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I think the first couple seasons of BBT are brilliant and then it rapidly became worse. There are only so many maths and physics jokes you can crack before it gets boring.

Also, it seems like the characters went from likable, socially awkward goofballs to just straight up being assholes all the time. Except for Howard, who kinda always was one.

I like both 🤷🏻‍♂️

I've always saw BBT as just a way to re-normalize making fun of neurodivergant people.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I think that's right but at the same time I think you're not doing it justice by implying that's all it is.

I've usually seen big bang theory compared to jersy shore.

one is a smart show about dumb people, and the other is a dumb show about smart people.

if we follow this logic, does that make it crowd a smart show about smart people?

IT Crowd S02E01 is probably the funniest episode of any sitcom I’ve seen

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago

That episode is a masterpiece

How did they steal your wheelchair?

Mournfully: “I don’t knooooow”

Cracks me up every time

“I’m disabled”

The situation just keeps getting more and more ridiculous and amazing

The second episode of season 2 has the greatest introduction to a new character ever. You meet Matt Berry at his most Matt Berryist!

FAAAAAAAAAAAATHEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRR!

Edit: Here's the scene for anyone who hasn't seen it or just wants to enjoy it again, slight spoilers but it won't ruin the first season.

That shit lives in my head rent free and I ain't even mad about it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

When ever I think of that show the scenes that come to mind are Matt Berry's introduction, moss rambling about Richmond not being in his room, he's supposed to be in his room, why isn't he in his room!? and the line " My thighs are as red as fire truck from here to here, with an undershot of his groin and Roy's face just staring, IT crowd was a masterpiece of comedy.

Just moments after getting in a slap fight with the priest.

Absolutely. My favourite of the IT crowd.

Aside from all the hilarity inbetween, the set ups to the last few gags are ridiculous and the payoff is brilliant.

Jen, talking to Roy, figuring out why on earth he's in that wheelchair only to turn around in desperate need of a drink, to see Moss politely ready to serve her at the bar...

"Willys, willys, I like willys" "I love willys..." "What?" "It's I LOVE WILLYS!" "---Sir, would you keep it down!?"

My favourite too, mate. So bloody good.
