I've watched it regularly (though not religiously) since the beginning. I've slowly come to realize how horrible most of the characters are. Especially Raj and Howard. All the main characters have problems. Amy, Penny and Leanord are the "best" of the bunch, but they're just codependents, helping the others to survive life being pieces of sh**t.
Granted, it's fairly normal for characters in TV shows, even comedies, to be complete pieces of sh**t. Some are worse even (IASIP, Shameless, many cartoons), but they are supposed to be pieces of sh**t, they are sold to us as pieces of sh**t...we're supposed to like Howard....why? Why would we? Because he lived with his mother and treated women like objects until a tiny vixen, who is lol/herp derp, just like his always off screen mother, finally sweeps him off his feet for reasons that make no sense. Who he then continues being a jerk too. Don't get me started on Raj. <we didn't want to get you started in the first place jerk!>
All that said, I still watch the show. Some of the jokes are funny, Kaley Cuoco, Melissa Rauch and Mayim Bialik are hot, I like Johnny Galecki (did they only hire cast members with names that are impossible to spell?) and I've invested too much.....but mostly I still watch because the wife does and it's better than America's Got Talent.
