11 Reasons The Big Bang Theory Is The Worst Thing On TV
7. Why Does Anyone Hang Around With Raj Anyway? He's Dreadful
INTERIOR. DAY. A WRITERS' MEETING. CHUCK LORRE AND BILL PRADY SIT AT OPPOSITE EACH OTHER AT A SMALL TABLE. CHUCK IS EATING BEEF JERKY.
CHUCK: "Right, we need to round out this Raj character, really get a feel for what he's about. Any ideas of how we can really make him come to life?" BILL: "Can we have him become a complete tosspot when he's had a drink?" CHUCK: "YES. Give me more." BILL: "How about one of the big jokes is that he literally cannot speak to women - it's always hilarious when people are crippled with social anxiety isn't it?" CHUCK: "This is all gold. Any more for any more?" BILL: "OH! I think I... no, it couldn't work..." CHUCK: "Come on, there's no bad ideas in this office. In fact, there's a poster stating that fact just behind your head." BILL: "I am well aware of that." CHUCK: "Good. Anyway. Idea?" BILL: "Well. You know gay people?" CHUCK: "I know of them." BILL: "Well. You know how the way they fancy people the same gender as them is really funny?" CHUCK: "Darn tootin'." BILL: "How about... can we have people think that Raj is gay, but he's actually not?" CHUCK: "BILL PRADY YOU'RE A GENIUS. Right, let's have lunch." BILL: "You've just eaten three pounds of beef jerky." CHUCK: "Shut up Bill."
