AIBU to suggest that Hollyoaks should be given regular hiatus' in order to have The Big Bang Theory (TBBT) on instead?
And ,because I nearly missed it todsy, that at the moment it should be on the same time?

Hollyoaks is rubbish, TBBT is excellent.

But I got the boxset for Xmas so I can have it on constantly if I wish!

Yabu!

TBBT is a load of bollocks, with 'jokes' that are just people saying obscure references in 'nerdy' voices. Hollyoaks is no better, mind you.

I hate the big band theory. Its tripe.

Hollyoaks is not much better

"Burn the apartment! Burn the apartment! NOO!!!" I love this episode! Thanks

warmandwooly · 31/12/2011 09:08

TBBT is witty and clever where as Hollyoaks is just pretty people and rubbish plots. Surely TBBT is better than that?

My Xmas was like an episode of BBT (always is when my son & his Dad are together) - I love it and ddn't know you could get it on DVD. Deffo one for next years Xmas list ; )

Like only fools & horses, Desmonds & many other really funny comedys it's based on just a smidgen of truth, so is hysterically funny or those who have experienced similar characters/situations in RL. My lad is a 7 year old "Sheldon", so I love it, so do the extended family of his best friend & his Granny.

YANBU - Hollyoaks is pure tripe. BBT is pretty rare in it's sheer class in an age when comedy seems to have sunk to the lowest common demoninator.

I love BBT. Did you just see the one with Sheldon and the Blue Jay. Grin

I missed the Sheldon and the Blue Jay one Sad

butterfliesandladybirds · 31/12/2011 10:01

The Blue Jay was a star, I want one!

Sparklingbrook · 31/12/2011 10:01

I love Sheldon. Deeply jealous of Amy Farrah Fowler (her that was Blossom). Envy

Sparklingbrook · 31/12/2011 10:12

Channel 4 plus 1 now-the Blue jay one. Grin

gottagetanewcalender · 31/12/2011 10:13

Hollyoaks has good storylines aimed at teenagers. If you have/work with teenagers it is a good starting point for discussions. The storylines are well constructed and acted to suit its target audience. Like all of the soaps Hollyoaks has been building a storyline to end around Christmas/New Year.

Why should a regular soap with good viewing figures be moved, when TBBT is out on dvd?

Sparklingbrook · 31/12/2011 10:15

Sheldon isn't in Hollyoaks though. Sad
