Fantastic post as always. One of the things that initially attracted me to BB was the references to old shows, movies and games which not everyone would be into. Farscape, Firefly, the arguments over early Superman movies and Godzilla. It was part of a culture I recognised and felt at home in. But BB had more, there was a load of science stuff that left me in awe.
Sheldon as The Doppler Effect is bloody genuis!!

Its miles apart but I guess most people don't see it. They like their half hour of mindless familarity and thats fun enough for them. In my mind, Sheldon would hate this, he would say "You expect me to wear the robe of a Gryffindor child?!" I like Harry Potter but I can see Sheldon as one of those serious minded nerds who think its just for children. He would have a lot of protests, he would probably have a lot of reasons why he wouldn't be in Gryffindor as well.
It's Vintage Sheldon vs Baby Sheldon, all over again.
