I understand this show is for a broader audience than science fans and is meant to be entertaining or whatever. But the lack of actual meaningful or intellectual conversation is making me suffer while watching the show. Also as a physicist myself, I can say that not many scientists actually live their life like the main character group - always drinking, smoking, taking pills like candy, talking like highschoolers, throwing tantrum anytime, being emotionally unstable, etc. Of course they don't have to look nerdy or unattractive but can't someone at least have a normal healthy life and mind? As the original book reader so far I'm totally fine with all the change they made regarding the book. But the script and some of the acting disappointed me. It can be entertaining to watch, just don't expect it to be deep or meaningful as it was in the book.
