I don’t know about others, but I can tell you the main reason why I like it.
I’ve had to work with not one, but two guys who were exactly like Sheldon Cooper from the series in terms of intelligence and character. They also quite looked like him. That was in different cities and different jobs. Both were absolutely self-righteous and 100% full of themselves. One of them seemed to think of himself as second only to God himself. It was brutal.
So, watching the series provided me with a lot of comic relief.

Me with Big Bang Theory.
I genuinely don’t understand why anyone likes it. Every moment is pure torture to me. Humor is subjective, sure. But I just don’t get it.

What, you don’t think it’s peak comedy when the joke is “this guy isn’t white”?

I thought it was okay. A lot of the humor relies on awkward social situations being funny which is a hit or miss.

Anything with a laugh track in it is poison to my mind.

Then you should like friends. They played to live audience.

That’s why I miss shows with a live studio audience. It always made it a little more enjoyable when lines hit so well the audience is laughing so much the actor is clearly pausing a little longer than they thought or stuttering a bit so they can have a clear moment to say their lines

I couldn’t stand watching it because of that. The jokes themselves were passable.
