I didn't watch CBS for eons either.
I hate that "tick, tick, tick" promo of "60 Minutes" during Sunday NFL football. It always brings back horrible memories of "the weekend is over and I have to do my homework" Sunday night memories of my youth. And that was a long time ago. And I still hate it.
I got hooked on "Two and a Half Men" as any skirt chasing, beer drinking gambling guy might.
(Heidi Fleiss spent her time in the prison about a mile and a half from from my house.....true story)
I never watched "The Big Bang Theory" until CBS moved it to the slot after Charlie Sheen's show for the summer.
My wife and I haven't missed it on a Monday since we found it. And I went out and bought the first season on eBay to give an idea how much we liked it.
I thought it must be new, but quickly googled and found they had done at least thirty some episodes.
What impressed when watching the first season is that the writing and acting is nearly as tight as it is now from the very beginning.
One of the accolades that comes to mind for "The Big Bang Theory" is one that I also applied to "Seinfeld".....
If you try to explain what happened "in last night's episode" to someone, the telling might take as long as "last night's episode" took to air.
That's a product of good writing.
And the guy who plays Sheldon definitely deserves and will eventually win an Emmy.
