I just started watching recently.
Some parts hilarious, others are rather quite flat dull. Hopefully it will pick though.

Before two of them got girlfriends there were more scenes that could be funny, like Wallowitz and Raj out on the pull. Now the humour of Wallowitz not hitting on girls and getting rejected is gone, Raj has no 'pulling partner' and you hear "I have a girlfriend" WAAAAAAYYYYY too often from the two who do. The "will they, won't they" humour with Penny and Leonard is now gone and frankly scenes with the boys and their girlfriends are pretty naff, this is supposed to be about the four boys and I just feel BBT struggles with the extra two characters.

Go back and watch series one and two before this current series puts you off altogether. More "hilarious" than "flat dull", the friends algorithm being one of my favourites.

The guy who created this show (and 2 and a half men) is premiering another new show soon.

I don't really want to spoil it for you but how long have their previous relationships lasted... Do you really see these ones going on for that much longer...?

Did you basically say,"I don't want to spoil it for you"...
"But Ima spoil it for you anyway".

Well I didn't tell him when/if it's going to end I just gave clues...

Leonard & Penny have broken up a while ago (and so has Wallowitz). Now it's Sheldon who has found a mate.

 

[Chewie]

SHHHH you're not supposed to spoil it for Owzat!

Was it the writers of Father Ted who said they stopped after three series because they would inevitably end up covering the same material and jokes?

No; Father Ted ended because Dermot Morgan didn't want to do it anymore in fear of not being able to get other jobs afterwards as he'd always been seen as Father Ted to compound it he died a few weeks after filming.

I doubt it will last long. They both seem very stubborn judging by the little we saw of her at the end of the episode. I can't see it working.

 

[Wee Cooper]

Class show. Not as uber geeky as it used to be but on the plus side it means my wife now gets the majority of the jokes.

I think it would probably be the British version of The Office or Fawlty Towers.
