The funny thing about this post is that BBT is full of misogyny, homophobia, and racism. Like, chock full of it. And yet the most frequent complaint about it is about how mean it is to nerds.
- knolax 7y agoWell being mean to nerds was the main gimmick, the other stereotypes were just for support.
- stormbrew 7y agoI mean, the real thing is that nearly every sitcom is full of these things that apparently won't fly according to the post I was replying to. They're literally the background noise of network evening TV. Chuck Lorre's other big contemporary show is no better on these fronts and isn't about making fun of nerds. So they're not actually things that are unacceptable. They're just so normal people don't even notice them until they're aimed at a trait they identify with.
