Square Pegs, to be clear, may well have stunk to high heaven. I was 14 and not the classy discerning critic I am now.

TBBT has its moments, and the geeks are geeky, not just socially inept. It is not the best comedy, not least because the writers are writers and not science nerds, so the in-jokes are a little dumbed down for my taste (I don't like it when I know what they're talking about, because then it rings false, if that makes sense) but still: GEEKS.
