"The Big Bang Theory's season premiere explodes with 21.99 million viewers, dominating NBC's Thursday night."
Entertainment news on portals such as Sina, NetEase, and Sohu, based on foreign media reports, state that this new sitcom, The Big Bang Theory, created by Wang Yang, landed on the NBC channel on September 30th in America and achieved great success right out of the gate. However, the show has received a mix of applause from viewers and some cold water from critics. It is understood that The Big Bang Theory airs every Thursday night from 8:00 to 8:30, and NBC has ordered a full-season run. The show includes numerous Chinese elements, such as Chinese restaurants and the Chinese language, and it will even feature a Chinese-American mathematician as a recurring character.
Despite the mixed reviews from critics, the well-known media Hollywood Reporter claims that it might create a "geek chic trend" with Wang Yang's significant influence, potentially on a global scale.
