Bang Goes Your Diet
Look, I know I’m a geek. By no means am I anywhere near as super smart as the boys on The Big Bang Theory (CBS, Monday 8:00 pm ET), but still I’m a geek. I’m really exciting that Big Bang is back on, cause I totally remember what I loved about it. These guys think like I do. I’m not even certain I want to admit that.
One recent episode was about a paper that both Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon (Jim Parsons) wrote together. They are asked to present their findings at a conference and Leonard wants to do it, but Sheldon doesn’t. They end up in a hilarious slap fest, rolling around on the floor, and the video of it ends up on youtube.
Last night, the episode centered around a physics competition where Sheldon tries to take over their team and answer every question. They kick him off the team, so he goes and find other random people (one’s a janitor) to make up his team. Unfortunately, because he is so stubborn, he refuses to take any help and at one point Leonard says to him, “Would you rather lose on your own than win as a team?” Yes, he would, cause he’s Sheldon. Funny stuff.
One thing that was really obvious to me last night, though, is that they eat all the time. Really. See, I’ve been on an eating plan (call it a diet at your own peril) for the past three weeks and its been working well. I’m rarely hungry and I’ve lost 10 pounds, so I feel good about it. But last night must have been one of those nights, cause I swear, they were eating in nearly every scene. Well, maybe not that much, but honestly go watch the ep for yourself and you’ll see. But eat first.
