Because The Big Bang Theory focuses on geeky physicists obsessing about comic books and Star Trek, it sounded like a niche sitcom which few people would understand or appreciate, much like the characters themselves. However, Chuck Lorre's comedy was a triumph, winning ten Emmys, earning a spin-off, and making the careers of the whole ensemble. It's a commitment to watch all 280 episodes and yet, fans keep watching and rewatching the series.
But if you gave Season 1 a second look, you may notice a couple of things you didn't catch the first time. Howard's father left him when he was a kid and yet, he mentions to Raj in one episode that his parents are still together. Penny's kitchen and balcony appears and disappears without explanation. Raj and Sheldon's eccentricities were less defined before the show took off.
