How I Met Your Mother and The Big Bang Theory is going to be the best sitcom hour of TV this season. HIMYM is already great and the preview of The Big Bang Theory looks absolutley terrific. It is going be the funniest new sitcom. Chuck Lorre has come up with another hit.
Agreed. The clip looks pretty good. A nice matchup with 2.5 men and Rules... Now if HIMYM could "breakout" and get about 10 million per week, then CBS would ahve a very solid night of comedies.

I was reading the article in Mediaweek today, and the media buyers seem to think that The Big Bang Theory could be the next hit. I hope they are right it looks really good. See excerpts from the article here :
Over at CBS, sitcom The Big Bang Theory, hammocked into its Monday comedy block and starring 8 Simple Rules’ Kaley Cuoco, is seen as a winner. Cane, a drama about a Cuban-American family in the sugar cane business, with two feuding brothers, and starring Jimmy Smits, is well done, but buyers wonder whether the storyline will play well in non-metro markets; NBC’s highly touted Hispanic-themed Kingpin bombed a few years ago.
Buyers agreed that Fox’s new shows are better than last season, but they are not happy that it plans to shuffle its slate in mid-season. Of particular concern is shifting Bones from Tuesday to Friday, a move that killed Fox hit Dark Angels a few years back.
Below is a list of the nets' winners and losers:
Networks' Winners:
The Big Bang Theory (CBS, Mon., 8:30) Known young star Kaley Cuoco, funny premise; protected inside CBS’ successful Monday sitcom block.
