The big bang theory
The big bang theory is one of the tv shows I like very much. Initially I watched with Chinese subtitles until I moved to Australia. In order to improve my English, I tried to watch the big bang theory without any subtitles but unfortunately it became really difficult to follow. Too many slangs and fast speaking speed depresses me so much. Even though with English subtitles I still have problems to precisely understand every word and sentence.
I am learning slangs and formal English simultaneously and I wish one day, when I sit in a cinema to watch a comedy I can get the joke like people who laugh around me.

The Big Bang Theory
The Big Bang Theory is one of the TV shows I really enjoy. like very much. Initially I watched with Chinese subtitles until I moved to Australia. In order to improve my English, I tried to watch the big bang theory without any subtitles but unfortunately it became really difficult to follow. Too many much slangs and rapid speech fast speaking speed depresses me so much. Even so, though with English subtitles I still have problems to precisely understand every word and sentence.

Thank you Billy for encouraging me. I guess I can get more jokes in 'How I Met Your Mother'.

I'm glad to see you enjoy the program. Many of the jokes on 'Big Bang Theory' are based around science, so they use a lot of big complicated words that are quite rare. Don't worry if you don't understand every word, many native speakers don't know some of them either, unless they've studied science. Another show that might be good for you is 'How I Met Your Mother', it's a comedy similar to Big Bang Theory but with less science words, so you may find it easier to understand. Good luck with your studies.
