15 Similarities Between Friends And The Big Bang Theory

7. Social Awkwardness

Friends: For four seasons Chandler is extremely socially awkward, and even after he gets together with Monica he still exhibits certain traits. He can€™t form a lasting relationship, he makes jokes when he is uncomfortable and he once chewed used gum whilst trying to impress a model in an ATM vestibule (or maybe it was an atrium€). The Big Bang Theory: For a preposterous six seasons Raj had next-to-no sex life. He had no girlfriends to speak of, and he did very little. He was a background character, much to the annoyance of many fans. This all changed when he gained the ability to speak to women without the aid of alcohol. Now he won€™t shut up. Chandler is the most likeable out of these two characters, but Raj€™s journey is probably the best to watch. He is even more socially awkward than Chandler and yet he manages to overcome it. Quite how his relationship with Emily will pan out remains to be seen, but with the rest of the main characters in successful, long lasting relationships, it's about time Raj got some loving.
