Is it just me, or does anyone else watch this?

Only if there's not much else on. It's funny-ish, but I just can't bring myself to deliberately watch it.

I really like it but that is because I have a background in theoretical physics, even so many of the jokes are very high brow. It is the reference to Schrodingers cat as a solution as to whether to date shows the characters solutions to life in general. I like looking at the notice boards to see the Feynman diagrams. But then I was very bright before my accident.

I love it. I have a background in physics and spend most of my time with computer geeks. I am the target audience  _________________jonbwfc's law: "In any forum thread someone will, no matter what the subject, mention Firefly." When you're feeling too silly for x404, youRwired.net

It has a one mild chuckle per episode average, which puts it on par with Two and a Half Men, funnier than Willl and Grace, but not quite as funny as Frasier.

I generally find as far as American comedies go, Frasier is in a class of its own.

Sheldon's ridiculous rules are very funny as well, and the relationships with people around them are fun as well.

Very true. I think it's strangely . . . English somehow? _________________jonbwfc's law: "In any forum thread someone will, no matter what the subject, mention Firefly." When you're feeling too silly for x404, youRwired.net

+1, and there was always English characters (or Yanks playing English characters) popping in, or references to the likes of Austin Powers etc lol. _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

I've followed it up to the point where Sheldon rematches Will Wheaton. Haven't had time to download the eps after that.

lol, I've never exactly followed it. I just watch it on TV when it's on after the pub. Although there is a plot progression, it's episodic enough to just watch now and then. _________________jonbwfc's law: "In any forum thread someone will, no matter what the subject, mention Firefly."
