Well, I've watched 18 of the 141 episodes of the series so far, starting at the beginning. I got a Netlfix subscription, with commercials, and the series is so far worth the $6.99. I don't particularly find Sheldon that endearing, though. Same goes for his sister and brother.
I do really like his father, mother and grandmother, however. (Except when Meemaw is really mean to Sheldon's father.) Some of the other semi-regular characters are amusing, too, such as Pastor Jeff, Tam, Herschel, Billy Sparks, the child psychologist and some of the teachers.
In addition, the setting is Texas, a state that always ends up being funny in one way or another. Hey, Texas can't help it! Thus, I guess I will keep on watching, even though I find Sheldon himself irritating a great deal of the time. His phobias are not funny, his scientific explanations get boring fast, and his words and actions are predictable.
Moreover, he has no interest in doing anything that doesn't benefit him. He lives in a totally self-absorbed world. Even when helping others or trying to save the world, he is doing it for his own glory. He's going to be like that for 7 years? If so, I'm not going to make it to the end of the series.
