Fans prefer the early years of The Big Bang Theory

In a recent poll (https://www.reddit.com/r/bigbangtheory/comments/okwy2m/which_seasons_did_you_like_more/) on the r/bigbangtheory subreddit, fans were asked to choose their favorite era of the show and were given two options: the first six seasons or the final six seasons. When the dust had settled, Seasons 1 through 6 were the clear winner with over 71% of the overall vote.

"1 to 5 is where it was really great and super funny, then from 6 to 8 it was okay and then from 9 to 12 the quality dropped considerably and it kinda felt forced," u/mlon_eusk12 (https://www.reddit.com/r/bigbangtheory/comments/okwy2m/comment/h5bfhan/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) argued. From the poll numbers alone, it's clear that many share that same opinion. It seems that "The Big Bang Theory" peaked early in its lifespan and never fully reached those heights again afterward. However, that's not to say that the back half of the show is overtly bad or without its redeeming moments (https://www.looper.com/198774/the-best-episodes-of-the-big-bang-theory-according-to-imdb/), as others pointed out.

"I thoroughly enjoy the first 6 seasons for the character development whereas I enjoyed the last 6 seasons as it was better quality and by that point the characters didn't need to develop any further so you can enjoy all their unique characteristics and quirks," wrote u/rayah01 (https://www.reddit.com/r/bigbangtheory/comments/okwy2m/comment/h5c8fvw/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3).

While the first era of "The Big Bang Theory" remains the clear favorite among fans, there's every chance that popular opinion could shift as time goes on. Perhaps future polls will see more appreciation directed at the show's later seasons.
