Levar Burton on Big Bang Theory

[GemHaters]

I like BBT, except that they need to tone down the Sheldon shtick. Nobody is like this. They've taken a socially frustrated genius and warped him even further. It's getting really lame and predictable now, as well as taking on a teen-twenties kind of flare that turns off the older audience. The show has a lot of potential, though.

This has nothing to do with this topic, but, Gary7 where did you get your avatar picture??? I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that Vincent Price holding a TOS communicator? And if so, what in the world? He was never on TOS, so.....Where'd ya get it?

i dont like to laugh at characters that are clearly mentally ill like the tall thin one.

He isn't mentally ill.

His mother had him tested.

Though she regrets not considering the specialist in Houston...

C'mon guys! I've been a geek longer than most of you and you've gotta learn to laugh at yourselves. Being a geek is not easy but it's a helluva lot more fun than being normal!

Long live BBT!

Y'know, I really hated Brent Spiner on BBT.

A brash douchebag, not what I wanted him to be

Haha. Knowing Brent's sense of humour, that's exactly the reaction he was going for. He would be pleased. The scene was hilarious!

It's true BBT makes fun of geeks...but jeez, it makes fun of "regular" people, too. It's very eclectic that way.

Besides, let's face it: A fixation on scifi is pretty darn geeky. And we should know, right?

And I've known people almost as odd as Sheldon. Oh, yes, I have!
