Product Description

Big Bang Theory: The Complete First Season (Blu-ray+DVD+UltraViolet Combo)

University physicists Leonard and Sheldon know whether to use an integral or a differential to solve the area under a curve. But they don’t have a clue about girls. Or dating. Or clothes. Or parties. Or having fun. Or, basically, life. So when a pretty blonde named Penny moves in the apartment across the hall, the guys decide to get an education outside of the classroom. Boys, you have a lot to learn. With series creators Chuck Lorre (Two and a Half Men) and Bill Prady (The Gilmore Girls) concocting the right mix of logic and lunacy and stars Johnny Galecki (Roseanne) and Jim Parsons (Judging Amy) turning geekdom into Phi Beta fun, The Big Bang Theory is big on laughs. And life.

I have had an on again/off again relationship with The Big Bang Theory since it premiered. I watched it for a little while but got turned off by the content. The previews kept cracking me up, however, I was debating about watching it again. When I got a great deal on the first and second seasons on DVD, I decided to give up the fight, and I watched the first season in a matter of days.

For those who have yet to inhabit this universe, the show focuses on four geeks and a "normal." Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon (Jim Parsons) are roommates and physicists working at Cal Tech. But these are just high tech guys, they also enjoy other geekly endeavors like comic books and video games. They usually hang out with co-workers Howard (Simon Helberg) and Raj (Kunal Nayyar).

As the series opens, into this world walks Penny (Kaley Cuoco). She's literally the beautiful girl next door since she moves into the apartment across the hall from Leonard and Sheldon. She's an aspiring actress, which naturally means she's making a living as a waitress. Most of the guys immediately develop crushes on her, but it's Leonard who is the most serious about her.

And despite how little they have in common, the five of them begin to form a friendship. But first, Penny has to deal with Sheldon and Leonard cleaning up her place for her while she slept. Sheldon gets fired for telling his new boss exactly what he thinks of him. Leonard and Sheldon stop speaking to each other after Leonard decides to present a paper they both authored. Sheldon tries to tell a sufficiently complex lie to Penny. And Penny must take care of a sick Sheldon.

If there is any standout character that makes this show hilarious, it's Sheldon. This guy may be brilliant when it comes to his job, but he is a complete idiot when it comes to interacting with anyone. His reaction to things, or lack of reaction, makes for some of the best jokes in the show.

Watching this season also made me aware that I might have to admit to the geek label I've been avoiding for a while. I have been part of some of the conversations the guys have, although usually as an outsider. (At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it.)

This show could easily devolve with stereotypical characters, and I'll admit that most of these characters seem to have one or two dominate traits with hints at more, even after a complete season. However, I do feel that most of the characters are real, or at least real enough that we can't help but root for them. Even Sheldon, as much as I would be ready to slap him in real life, is likable.

The exception to that is Howard. His is described on multiple occasions as creepy. While all the characters are obsessed with sex, Howard takes it to an uncomfortable low. If there are any moments that make me squirm in disgust, you can bet that he's involved. And that pretty much seems to be his only trait. It's disappointing to say the least.

Frankly, the constant sex jokes are the main reason I stopped watching at one point and still the only turn off to the show for me. They don't need them to be funny; most of the funniest scenes have come from the characters and not the sex jokes. But that's what they revert to time and time again. Additionally, the couple of times that religion has come into things, it's been treated negatively. Not too big a fan of that, but at least so far it's been minor enough that I can still enjoy the show.

The acting on the show is universally great. The main actors are great as breathing life into their characters and really rounding them out. Yes, even Simon Helberg is good as Howard. Special praise must go to Kunal Nayyar whose Raj is too terrified to talk to women. His facial expressions alone are priceless. But the undisputable star of the show is Jim Parsons. He makes anti-social Sheldon completely believable and funny without resorting to too many stereotypes. He was born for this role pure and simple.

Due to the writer's strike of the fall of 2007, there were only 17 episode in the first season. All of them are here on three discs in widescreen and stereo sound. Not surprising from a recent TV show, they look and sound great. There is one 17 minute behind the scenes type featurette that talks about the creation of the show and the characters. It's nothing too groundbreaking but interesting.

While I don't find all the sex jokes funny, when things come together perfectly, The Big Bang Theory is brilliantly funny. I used to watch lots of sitcoms, but got away from them. I'm quite happy to get back into them for season one of this show.

Television hasn't been this good since Norman Lear

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 19, 2008

Let me preface by saying that Creationists should not be confused by the title of this show.

On one of the corporate controlled network channels, tucked away quietly at 8pm on Monday evenings, is a new piece of brilliance called "The Big Bang Theory." Now most of us have stopped looking to the networks for intelligent entertainment that is based on quality writing. The only reason I saw this was because I was visiting my mother on her farm in the middle of no where where neither cable nor DSL has snaked up the mountains and across the fields. I watched Sheldon and Leonard for the first time through the snowy reception of days of yore and perhaps it is my age-perhaps it is that I work in theatre and music- that I caught onto the inside joke of our central characters first names: Sheldon Leonard was one of the pioneers of television situation comedies. The Sheldon and Leonard in our show are two men in their twenties whose combined I.Q.'s are 360. They're "Star Trek" loving, Halo playing PhD research physicists at Cal Tech. They share an apartment on the third floor of a building with a perpetually broken elevator. The two hundred pound transvestite across the hall has moved out and is replaced by a beautiful, sweet young woman from Nebraska who is a waitress at the Cheesecake Factory. Her name is Penny and she is tolerant and wise and, mostly, normal. This makes us bond with her instantly. Sheldon is incapable of dealing with anything that isn't logic based and Leonard is starting to explore the world outside of his lab and his lap-top. In a rare moment of understanding, Sheldon says, "We're not through with her, are we?" to which Leonard says, "Our children will be both smart AND beautiful."

The supporting characters are outstandingly developed: Howard, a Jewish, Casanova wanna-be works as an engineer at Cal-Tech where some of his work orbits Saturn's moons and help to keep the Hubble Telescope on point. He's the black sheep of their group. Is this because he still lives with his mother (a faceless voice screaming a la Constanza from the other room)? Is it because he hits on women with sickeningly nauseating form? Because he is and engineer and not a physicist? No. It's because he only has a Masters Degree and did not begin graduate school until after he was eighteen. The fourth of their group is an Indian genius named Raj who is incapable of speaking with women to the point where he often must go hungry in restaurants. The four of them have their lives scripted out together and all is in balance until the Pilot brings Penny into their lives and Leonard-expertly played by Johnny Galecki-begins to learn about love.

The direction, acting and photography is all brilliant but it is the writing that makes this a television show worthy of FX, Showtime or HBO. (And, perhaps, history) The fact that it's CBS should be ignored until you've seen it. And then, as time goes by, perhaps we can begin to expect more from CBS than we've seen throughout the dark years of unscripted television (Or as Jordan McDeere called it, "Illiterate Programming", thanks Mr. Sorkin) and now, perhaps after a decade of watching nearly naked men and women eating insects, entrails and pig feces, or watching human devastation as mass entertainment (thanks, Ani) we can creep from behind our DVD towers and carefully unplug our iPods to once more risk our ever-fragile need for intelligent and classy entertainment in order to watch "The Big Bang Theory". I recommend-as I always do-the price of the DVD over waiting until 8pm on Monday evenings,as television commercials are simply a whole different essay unto themselves.

This is outstanding television and everyone who has anything to do with producing it should be very proud. I thank you for being part of this Renaissance. I thank my Mom for pointing it out to me. She is braver than I.

It doesn't matter what your sense of humour is, this is for you. I've had this dvd set for a couple of weeks now, and if there's nothing on the telly, (often), or i'm a bit depressed, on goes a disc. Within seconds i'm killing myself laughing at the antics of these characters. Sheldons' total innocence about any subject outside his beloved physics, coupled with Leonards' facial expressions just crack me up. The whole cast is brilliant. Nice to see Sarah Gilbert from Roseanne again too. If you aren't sure about this series, just buy it anyway. You really won't be sorry.

"There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who don't"

If you don't understand this joke, you'll find BBT funny - if you do....you'll laugh your socks off !
Yes, each show isn't as long as it could be - but there are more 'laugh out loud' gags here than any other comedy around.
Any program that makes the missus create her own little dance for when the start/end music comes on must be a good thing - and this did with abundant glee. This is so well written, with consultation from real geeks to get the right inferences, that you get sucked in - all the main characters are wonderfully played - and like many of the best comedies - you can see so many people you know in there that it just adds more dimensions to the show.
Roll on the next series.......exponential delights !!!

Have to say that I love tBBT, and when I started watching it I described it as "a comedy about these 4 geeky guys". However, the more I watched it, the more I wondered if it is actually written in a way that you have a to be a geek to find it really funny. Thankfully, that suits me!

a series that just got funnier and funnier as it went on. The chemistry between the actors was wonderful to watch. The episode where Sheldon was sick was (l think) the funniest U.S t.v. show I have ever seen, (though many would probably disagree as the whole series was so funny everyone will have a favourite episode) American T.V. at its very best. Cannot wait for the second series!
