Who else thinks Kaley Cuoco (Penny from the Big Bang Theory) is a horrible actress?

[Alex31]

I do

No, she's good

[Annie_Mosity]

Being honest, it's a shit programme. The dialogue and relationship between Penny and Sheldon is probably what saves the show though.

Having never seen her inanything else I can't really comment on her acting skills. She's playing an average white girl who's job it is to not understand most of what's going on, for comedic value. Not like she's being asked to play Lady McBeth is it?

[Catholicgirl22]

I do. She's likely has family contacts in the buisness or had to grant sexual favours to a producer to get her acting career started or both. That's why I think #METOO is a load of shit.

[_ARPY_]

She's not the best but she isn't bad at all i only saw the first 4 seasons and at leadt in them she played well.

[loveslongnails]

She's so good at playing a ditz that you think she's bad !

[Alex31]

No! Her facial expressions and the way she acts, not who she acts, is just terrible.

[loveslongnails]

She's not the greatest, I admit, but she's not terrible. I give her about a 5.5 Courtney Cox on Friends was truly terrible.

[Alex31]

Why was Corteney terrible? She acted her part well.

[loveslongnails]

I thought Courtney was the least impressive of them all.

[Leafpool2]

Well the Big Bang Theory is a terrible show and a good actress can't save a bad script with a bad director.
I've never seen her in anything else so I'm not sure what her range is, but nobody's their best selves on that show.

[F1shaun90]

But yet it's gone on for like over 10 seasons? can't be that terrible 😉

[Leafpool2]

Bad writing + High viewership by people saying "oh I know what they're referencing!!" = 10 seasons too many getting financed.

It's not about quality it's about what makes money and Big Bang is practically printing money.

[F1shaun90]

And why would they be making money? And gettng high views if it was a terrible show? Terrible shows are cancelled by the network. Prime example marvels inhumans only last 1 season because it was "terrible"
You can say in your opinion its terrible because its not to your liking. But doesn't mean its actually terrible just means its not your sort of show

[Leafpool2]

The writing is bad, it's really not a debateable topic. It's lazy and nobody would laugh if a laughtrack didn't cue them to. Popularity does not inherently equal quality.

[F1shaun90]

Your "opinion" doesn't make it a fact 😉

[Leafpool2]

It's not my opinion. Google is free, go read literally anything about it

Oh and a 8.3 rating on imdb 😉

[MarkRet]

She's good. If she wasn't, she wouldn't have been on that show or all these years. I also like her in those commercials.

[SarahsSummer]

I dont think its possible to be the highest paid at something for any length of time if you're not at least somewhat good at it.

[dandee55]

Well, she's highest paid because the show is the highest-rated comedy. ... but I think she does a good job.

[wankiam]

her character or her acting? she was good in that other sitcom she did before so i think her part has been written to be slightly annoying

[BillyB4]

She’s OK but not anything special. Personally I thing the Big Bang Theory isn’t as good as it once was, and I think they need to end it now.

[truthbeknown]

It is coming down. It's my wife's and I favorite show and has been for years. We always said once they start getting married and having kids it will ruin the show. Same thing happened with Friends years ago.

[BillyB4]

@truthbeknown Yeah I know what you mean. I haven’t seen all of it, but in general the earlier seasons when they were younger were funnier, and it’s been kind of getting lamer over the last couple of seasons.

[Alistayr]

I think she's great. Her interaction with Sheldon is hilarious.

[F1shaun90]

she's not the best but definitely not the worst. If she was that bad they would of recasted her like shows do.

[GingerGuy]

Maybe not the best ever, but I don't think she's horrible. I've seen much worse.

[winterfox10]

I hate Kaley Cuoco. I get that she's pretty, and maybe even a okay actress, but her character on BBT is just bleh...

[naesala]

She is mediocre. When you look like that, thats more then sufficient. Ask the ladies of Friends (except Lisa Kudrow).

[alice55]

I think she's good after I only saw her in charmed.

[ThePundertaker]

I think they are all not very good actors. I lost interest in Big Bang a while ago
Bazinga bitches!

[motownplayer2000]

Not the greatest actress but she is better than quite a few others in Hollywood

[SirBarristanSelby]

What makes you say that? I've always considered her a good actress. Admittedly I've only ever seen her as Penny in TBBT.

[neoxyz]

she's way better than the first actress they've got for the test episode. happy they changed their angle for jokes too...

[Kandy-Kane]

I think she's ok. The one I don't care for is
Julianne Moore

[NovissimumVirorum]

I liked her in 8 Simple Rules, but absolutely despise the Big Bang Theory

[ChristianBateman]

They only casted her because she's hot, and that's a fact.

[bradfordro]

You want a horrible actress try Tea Leoni, Sigourney Weaver, Lauren Holly.

[Tiaroendu479]

You’re joking, right?

[bradfordro]

What do you mean?

[Tiaroendu479]

Do you actually think Kaley Cuoco is a better actress than any of them?

[bradfordro]

Yep. I do

[Tiaroendu479]

Kaley Cuoco literally got an award for being “Worst Supporting Actress”...

[bradfordro]

True but then again wasn't that for this generation?

[ZanyInternetName]

Better question, why would I want to watch TBBT?
