    I liked it. There were parts that were "meh." And the second episode more so, but I think if he gets going they'll iron out. Honestly, I've been in love with him since I was a ittle bittle watching TNG with my dad.

    And Alphas was so awesome...

    I laughed, and we quoted the "Neil Degrasse Tyson high" all week..

    In the first episode, they were trying too hard for a laugh and had very little sci-fi news. The second episode had more meat, and I liked it a lot better. Plus, Felicia Day!

    I loved it. I think he needs to balance it out and he will. Of course I think he is so very awesome :) we met him at a very small Con in NY and he chatted with my daughter for 10 minutes. I got all shy, which is what I do, but he was friendly and nice and smiled. It was really great.

    We tried to watch to watch it, but it must be American humour as we didn't find it that funny.
    Lots of canned laughter, and bad scripting

    Wil posted on his personal blog that the time was changing to an hour earlier (10 pm to 9 pm). I know it also re-runs at different times and days. I haven't been able to watch it because I don't have cable, but I might try to catch it online on my phone at some point. I've loved reading about all the prep behind it, though, so in a way, I already love it!

    I forgot about the Wil Wheaton Project. I must admit...I never knew who this was until I got hooked on the Big Bang Theory. I think I'm slowly becoming a geek! Better late than never! ;o) I'm going to try and watch the show. So glad I saw your topic...thanks!

    I saw the first ep. on YouTube. Looking forward to watching more, but I wasn't completely blown away.

    It's gotten better with time...I think they were definitely trying too hard to be funny in the beginning. Plus it seems that his nerves may have gotten to him a bit at the start. Definitely much better a few episodes in!!
