I feel incomplete right now.
I got home from work on time, quickly ran through some of my
chores and happily sat on my favorite sofa. I was eagerly looking forward to an
evening or at least part of an evening with one of my best television shows:
The Big Bang Theory when the worst happened.

I turned on my TV set and the indicator light actually came on but all I am getting is a blank screen. It’s a 50 inch Vizio LCD and its only 11 months old. I live in Albuquerque New Mexico and since that’s where I bought the TV from I called the repair man and I was asked to take a picture of the TV which I did and sent back to them. They promised to call me back in an hour. But no call from them so I had to call again. Eventually I got a lot of apologies and was asked to switch it off and back on again.
I did that and the screen lit up a bit and I was about to
jump for joy when it went black again.I called them back and after a lot of questions I was told
they may have to change the power board but they are also suspecting other
things like the T-con board, the whole screen or the backlight converter.
Unfortunately the parts have to be ordered first before any repairs can be
made.
Long story short, no Big Bang Theory for me today. I don’t
get to see what is now arguably the most popular show on American television.
If you’ve never seen it let me tell you what I like it so much. It basically
revolves around two young and very brilliant scientists (physicists in this
case) named Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon Cooper (Jim
Parsons). They understand almost everything about how the universe works and
have a very high combined IQ of 360! Unfortunately, they find it hard to
interact and relate with other seemingly normal people. Women especially. Good
enough, a beautiful and fun-loving single lady, Penny (Kaley Cuoco), takes up
an apartment across the hall from them and Leonard quickly becomes attracted to
her. Penny presently works as a waitress but aspires to become an actress.
I particularly enjoy the general geeky feel of the show and
the way some scientific facts are presented. Other geeks in the show include Howard
Wolowitz and Rajesh Koothrappali who selects to go mute whenever Penny comes
around. The constant jokes really help me relieve stress after a busy day. I
guess I am not the only one who likes this show because it had been nominated
for an Emmy Award in the best comedy series category and Jimmy Parsons has won
four Emmy Awards so far for his role in the show.
Sadly for me, am missing out on all that fun today and I
really feel bad this is happening today of all days.
This journey of the Big Bang Theory was brought to you by TV repair man from Hugo's Tv Repair shop in Albuquerque who takes fast action to fix your Vizio Television. Enjoy!
