Re: The NewsRadio appreciation thread
No matter the year these always seems to be a terrible sitcom on right after the nightly news. About 2-3 years ago it was Big Bang and it has now shifted to the Goldbergs. From what I gather the Goldbergs is a big 80s joke played out as a sitcom. Lots of goofy sweaters and VCR problems.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑23 Mar 2021, 6:31am

Re: The NewsRadio appreciation thread
It's a cute show. It's not groundbreaking, but it has its moments. It's not nearly as bad as BBT and it's more of a joke about his overbearing mother than anything. The only thing that really bugs me about it is that the main kid is supposed to be from Philly, but he is clearly from Chicago.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑23 Mar 2021, 11:13amNo matter the year these always seems to be a terrible sitcom on right after the nightly news.

Re: The NewsRadio appreciation thread
I don't think there is much that could be more annoying than the Big Bang Theory. They really nailed it by gathering the more insufferable cast. I don't know why Jim Parsons bugs me so much but he does.JennyB wrote: ↑23 Mar 2021, 11:21amIt's a cute show. It's not groundbreaking, but it has its moments.

He is a good straight man, but I think the brilliance is that while he likes to think of himself as the last bastion of normalcy, he's just as crazy as the rest of them.

I hate to sound shallow but I find it impossible to not lose some respect for a person who says they like BBT.
