Big Bang Theory is a terrible show.
It's not because of "nerd blackface." Fuck you :reddit-logo: for making that the presumed reason for anyone to dislike that show.
It's a misogynistic, cryptoracist, ignorantly ableist (setting back public understanding of autism by years) and lowkey homophobic unfunny mess that is written like the script was printed on plastic sheets made from melted down Funko Pops. Also, the :my-hero: worship is insufferable.
:WeAreNotTheSame:
that's an inflammatory name for the idea but they are gross caricatures.
you all fucking forgot as soon as the iron man movie was big but the MCU ain't paying for my therapy and none of the antibullying shit at school ever accomplished anything.
I can feel that a little. It kinda makes me mad how freely people these days could put anime decals on their cars when I was bullied for liking it as a kid
I kind of appreciate Big Bang Theory for the wrong reasons. Yeah they're gross caricatures, but they're caricatures of annoying nerd professors who are obsessed with consumerist doo-dads and read superhero comic books at 40 years old. When I first watched the show I though the characters were supposed to be horrible, not endearing.
