I've been watching this show since it came out and it always been good for what it is it's easily comparible to Friends or Two and a half men it's a good show with well thought out and accurate writing. The people giving this show negative reviews are children who don't know how sitcoms used to be filmed. All the negative reviews claim the 3 camera filming was played out but back when this show started it was still standard and they did a great job at using it. People in the reviews are comparing it to young sheldon which is honestly ridiculous. as The Big Bang Theory was created during an era of classic sitcoms when i was younger everyone was watching it parents and kids alike. Young Sheldon on the other hand has been redone in a modern day style without the laugh track and a lot more drama heavy then comedy heavy. Long story short don't listen to these kids that think good sitcoms are outdated they have lost their minds.
