Big Bang Theory – the supreme geek comedy for lovers of all things geek! If you have a fondness for reciting pi to the umpteenth decimal place then – well, then it's time you found yourself a girlfriend. But other than that, you are probably already only too familiar with the joys of BBT and the crazy cool geek characters therein. And if not, then you should be! What a treat you have in store.
Big Bang Theory is populated with fully-rounded, distinct characters, even in the midst of all their geekiness. Sheldon, for example, is King Geek, and none shall oppose him. He is so entrenched in his Asperger's-like fetishes for science, rationality, system and orderliness, that any need for human contact has long since passed him by. In season two, however, he gets a few of his corners knocked off: for example, his friendship-by-default with Peeny matures and even develops into some kind of intimacy-stroke-affection, in an asexual kind of way. He even acquires a kind of girlfriend... although most people would describe her as a stalker. And when he receives a truly awesome present from Penny, he reciprocates by mastering his most feared phobia...
How about Leonard? He closed season one of the Big Bang by scooting off on a long-anticipated genuine date with Penny. How did it go? Well, we get to find out at the beginning of Season Two. Suffice it to say, Penny's not bearing Leo's babies by the end of the season. Instead, Leonard concentrates all of his wooing abilities in the direction of not one, but two new lady-friends. For a heavy-duty physics geek like Leonard, that's some major amorous activity going on!
A less welcome female friend from his immediate family also shows up. But that's family for you. Nothing you do is good enough – they insist on turning up on your doorstep anyway!
Leonard maintains his friendship with Penny in any case. But is there something more bubbling away under the surface?
Jewish engineer and Masters-holder Howard also makes some significant strides with the ladies in this second series. He gets some, he gets a real-life non-blow-up girlfriend... maybe he even gets his heart broken. But hey, he gets to go to Vegas, baby!
How does the enigmatic Indian physicist Raj Koothrapali get along in Season Two of Big Bang Theory? Sadly, he gets less lady action than his nerdy pals, despite being the handsomest of the four. (I guess an inability to talk to chicks until you're wasted is a major disadvantage.) However, he does get to be (briefly) famous! Which I guess is something of a consolation.
Want to know what happens to the gang after the cliffhanger of Leonard and Penny in the last episode of season One? Love geeks and all they stand for? (Or sit down and jump around for, when they're playing Halo.) Then the Big Bang Theory Season Two DVD is for you!
