University physicists Leonard and Sheldon know whether to use an integral or a differential to solve the area under a curve. But they don’t have a clue about girls. Or dating. Or clothes. Or parties. Or having fun. Or, basically, life. So when a pretty blonde named Penny moves in the apartment across the hall, the guys decide to get an education outside of the classroom. Boys, you have a lot to learn. With series creators Chuck Lorre (Two and a Half Men) and Bill Prady (The Gilmore Girls) concocting the right mix of logic and lunacy and stars Johnny Galecki (Roseanne) and Jim Parsons (Judging Amy) turning geekdom into Phi Beta fun, The Big Bang Theory is big on laughs. And life.

Summary: Brilliant comedy for nerds, geeks and everyone else :)
Comment: I watched my first episode of The Big Bang Theory on a plane. It was the episode (The Fuzzy Boots Corollary) where Leonard, Sheldon, Wolowitz and Raj were playing a MMORPG (a fitting tribute to World of Warcraft or any similar online game) and they ended up fighting over the Sword of Azeroth, a rare/unique weapon, which ended up on eBay. Within those first few minutes, I was SOLD!
The Big Bang Theory chronicles the lives of 3 main characters, i.e. Sheldon Cooper, Leonard Hofstadter and Penny. Sheldon and Leonard are gifted scientists (though Sheldon claims he is way more gifted than Leonard) and housemates. Penny is the lovely blonde who has moved in next door, much to Leonard's delight. However, neither Leonard nor Sheldon have much luck with women and watching Leonard's attempt to win over Penny is comical and hilarious. The 2 other characters (Wolowitz - the horny jew & Raj - the computer pro from India) are also amazing, and complement the main cast very well.
I guess what draws many to this series is how easily we can relate to the characters (it shows you that there are way more nerds and geeks out there ;)). The cast are fantastic, particularly Jim Parsons who plays Sheldon. Not only do they fit their roles really well, but after a couple of episodes, you can't help but feel that no other actors would do quite as good a job.
This DVD set contains all the 17 episodes from the first series with not many extra features but watching and laughing through each and every episode makes the collection a worthwhile purchase on its own. If you're a geek, a nerd or anyone who just wants a good laugh, this series is for you! :)

Summary: Big Bang Theory delivers big laughs
Comment: In this world of drama, I was seeking comic relief...You fall in love with
these characters amd find yourself rooting for their successes. Social skills are so over-rated and relationships are so complex...these guys live in the truth about everything....they are eluded by the complexities of relationship lies and proticols.....refreshing comic performances....excellent X-mas gift for anyone of intelligence...

Summary: Fantastic!
Comment: I'm not going to repeat the premise of the show (which is very helpful, but already pointed out by others) These actors are truly gifted in making their characters come to life. I have watched and re-watched every episode. While my husband was stationed in Iraq, I had to promise I would record every episode for him, which I did. Afterward I happened to notice the first season for sale. There was no hesitation - I bought it immediately (eventhough I had them all recorded) so I could watch it as often as I wanted, with no fear of data loss. This show is very unique and an absolute pleasure to watch. The intertwined relationships of these characters has so much potential. I truly hope this show will last many years. I find myself actually smiling while watching each episode unfold. Big Bang Theory is exceptional entertainment.

Summary: Beter on DVD
Comment: I love the Big Bang Theory, but seldom get a chance to watch it or tape the show. This was the first time I purchased a complete season of a television show...it was great, no commercials and I was able to get a handle on the characters as they developed. Looking forward to season 2.
