Why does "How I met.." get love, but "The Big Bang..." gets hate?

I have a feeling that it's just because The Big Bang Theory is directly competing against our beloved show, Community.
Both are 3 camera sitcoms. Both have laugh tracks (ohhhh the horror!). Both target the same audience.
Anybody have a better explination?

HIMYM isn't as nerdy maybe?

How I met Your Mother gets plenty of hate.
They are dragging it out.
Ted is annoying.
Dropped storylines.
Where did Sandy Rivers Go?!?
How I met Your Mother at least attempts interesting forms of story telling and has some clever humor, even if it over plays it often.
How I met Your Mother Targets Late-20s Early 30s.
Big Bang Targets 40+.

HIMYM is more of a chick show that boyfriends and husbands get roped into, then natural affinity develops on the boyfriend/husband side once they get invested in the characters.
Big Bang is a solid show but doesn't have the broad appeal of HIMYM, mainly due to stereotypes around nerd culture. It's a show that has to overcome bias right off the bat to get people to buy in.
Essentially, HIMYM is Friends.

I don't think laugh track automatically makes something shitty, I actually enjoy Rules of Engagement despite it being pretty formulaic.
I just think BBT sucks and people think its smart because in their sex jokes they use the word coitus

Because HIMYM is a better show even at its worst

Big Bang Theory is pretty much on the same intellectual level as Two and a Half men they just use faux nerdy jokes.

I like both and find them entertaining. HIMYM is getting long in the tooth, but I've actually enjoyed this season finally pushing the plot forward.
I love BBT. I like science, engineering, comic books, and hot blondes. Its my kind of show.

BBT at least used to be good, or didn't appear to suck right away.
HIMYM has always sucked, and has never been funny at all.

HIMYM has some good characters but it's kind of a shitty show overall. BBT is a dumb comedy masquerading as some smart piece of television because they use the occasional big word.

I have to say, Sheldon's greatest moment was, when Penny gave him the Leonard Nimoy autographed napkin.

Big Bang has become my favorite comedy on network tv.
Posted on 2/26/13 at 11:51 am to TigersRuleTheEarth
HIMYM use to be funny. TBBT was never funny. It's really that simple.

I have gotten to really like "Rules of Engagement"
