    Am I the only person on Earth who doesn't like this show?
    ^ The above should be taken with two grains of salt and a fistful of "chill the F* out".

    Meh, I don't like it either, but I'm glad it's gonna be on the show.

    I honestly can't stand it. I don't find it funny. But this is kinda ironic; a bad game featured in a bad show ^^

    Please post constructively. There was no reason for bashing the game or show.

    Someone should call Sheldon to tell him he's better off going to the birthday party

    BBT is probably the best sitcom around at the moment
    People that dont like it, dont understand it.
    On other news, ye Craze, people should really tell sheldon to go the the party

    I understand it. It's just not funny to me. I get a couple of chuckles here and there, but to me it just seems like geek black-face. I'll still probably watch since the WoW episode was worth a few good laughs.

    YAY for product placement!

    Also BRING BACK ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT!

    Hahaha, fantastic! I had no idea, now I've got to make it a point to see the episode!

    after watching from mmoc some linked videos of tbbt without the recorded laughs i though "well, it had a good run, bye"
    now i am thinking "damn the never ending ad"

    probably the coolest thing this game has going for it

    Penny getting into AOC or whatever it was and completely degrading into a mess of a person hitting the apex of shame when going to hang out with Howard of Wallowitz was the best. I am sure they will do something good with this also.

    If Sheldor is your posterboy of cool then the end is near! He will probably have a more SW style name then his other gaming names though.

    The only thing I don't like about BBT is it sometimes hits close to home, then I become completely embarrassed and wallow in misery while eating a pint of ice cream. I'm definitely a Leonard type - a big nerd but embarrassed to fly my flag in public.

    Otherwise its freaking hilarious, and I will thoroughly enjoy the TOR episode.

    I'll be honest, my joy faded after I read the full description. It's just another potshot at the MMO community and how they "give up real life to play video games and need rehab to stop."

    Well if TOR wasnt gunna hit 2 million very soon, it sure will now. Wonder how much (if anything) Bioware paid for that little advertisement.
