I agree with your point, but forming an opinion of any long-running television series based on watching a single episode
I didn't say the entire series was badly written, I said this episode was.

Fair enough. Considering you've only seen the one episode, I can understand why that would be your opinion. However, within the context of the entire series and taking the relationships between the characters into consideration, it was actually quite well written, appropriate, and pretty funny.I didn't say the entire series was badly written, I said this episode was.
I know people in real life who are very much like the characters on the show--intelligent and brilliant, but incredibly awkward socially. And I find it far more entertaining than yet another sitcom about a hen-pecked husband and his smarter-than-he-is wife. *shrug*Are we seriously discussing the 'merits' of something as insipid as "The Big Bang Theory"?
I honestly thought you RPF cats would find the whole premise condescending (I sure as heck do).
I'm actually slightly appalled that my fellow RPFers are defending that CRAP.
No offense, Zombie, but - seriously???
I know people in real life who are very much like the characters on the show...
Hey, I'm a nerd (studied archeology, too) AND I play the guitar.Oh, so do I.
And they're NOTHING like the characters on the show.
How do they all have a BEAUTIFUL girlfriend?
The pretty girls I know want NOTHING to do with guys who spend their free-time diagramming Jeffries tubes.
Those girls would be out banging the bad boys with guitars.
You know it, and I know it.
Don't defend that crap.
Oh, so do I.

I am part of the crowd who finds the big bang theory condescending.

How about this trope:
1: "I need to tell you something"
2: "I know what you're going to say"
1: "You do? Great"
Later, after hilarious/tragic/annoying misunderstanding...
1: "You said you knew!"
2: "I thought you meant something else!"
