Maybe it just ends with 30 minutes of a laugh track on a loop

I never got the level of hate this board has for the show. It's amusing and funny at times this board acts like it's the worst show ever created. Because those type shows normally go on for 12 seasons.

It's popular, so it must suck.

Sure this show isn’t the most cerebral, but it’s also not trying to be. Hating on it is just a way to get some internet points.

Crossover episode where it is revealed that Leonard faked his science credentials and geeky background and that he actually reinvented himself as Leonard. His real name: Kevin "David" Healy.

I can understand hating on these shows when they're on the decline. But Two & a Half Men, Big Bang, Modern Family... they did have early seasons where they hit their stride and were enjoyable.
When Big Bang was young and you had the occasional Star Trek guest star it was fun. After a while it seemed like they were "running into" every sci-fi icon and the gag got old.

First couple seasons of Two & a Half Men were ok, but were always just low-hanging sex and gross-out humor. It got old fast.
Modern Family is still pretty good in my opinion, and is clearly in a class above the other shows you listed.
Big Bang is a weird show for me. Most shows start out with relatable, human characters, that slowly over time develop into caricatures of their most exaggerated traits. Big Bang kinda did the opposite. The characters started out as punchlines that didn't feel like real people, only to become more human and relatable over time. I feel like it's gotten stale the last couple years, but the quality at the end is still better than it was at the beginning. Never was a big fan, but good for harmless, light chuckles. I doubt I'll miss it or get nostalgic about it in reruns. It was this generation's "Friends". Low-hanging humor, bad laugh track, bland everything, inoffensive and unremarkable in every way, but not bad in any way.

It's hit or miss for me. Some episodes have been really funny, some have been cringe-worthy. Some have been funny in a cringy way. Not a bad show. I'm curious to see how it develops.

People trying to be edgy and cooler than the rest of us. Rather unsuccessfully.

Anything popular will be hated by the internet if it's not appropriately "edgy". The internet is group-think masquerading as counter/culture.
What starts out as the "hip" show by all the internet cool kids can quickly become the heel if it gets too popular (see "Rick & Morty").

With the kids all grown, it seems like a Vaudeville show where they shout out lines that they've said a thousand times before. We still watch it, but it doesn't hold up to the reruns on USA.

Agreed. The show should have ended 2 years ago. I still find Phil, Jay, and Haley hilarious. I feel like Gloria has become a better character as the show has gone along.

I liked the show a lot, maybe the first 4 seasons. I think it went down hill for me once they started to have serious relationships and making other females other than Penny regulars.

I have the same problem with Big Bang as I had with Clerks II - once you advance the characters ages in their timelines they become much less sympathetic, and that's hurt later seasons for me.
A young professional Leonard fawning over the 23 year old aspiring actress/waitress/hot chick across the hall is fine. Mid career Leonard (who is depicted by then as being able to attract a string of attractive, successful, women) still fawning over the 30 year old failed-actress-still-waitressing woman across the hall? That becomes less believable.
Raj as a character is fairly pathetic as a 20-something, but he's now pushing 40 and that's now going beyond pathetic.
