The critique misses the real question that BBT poses: whose watching this program?
The author critiques all the failings of the show when judged as 'another sitcom', but is apparently oblivious to the pleasure true dorks can get from tongue-in-cheeck alusions to advanced scientific ideas.
However, given the rest of the drivel shown on US TV, who is enjoying this? In a recent episode Sheldon describes his favourite spot as {0,0,0,0} in a four dimensional cartesian plane (sic). Later in the episode Penny describes it as {0,0,0} and Sheldon responds 'there's another zero - you forgot the time dimension'.
