I find Friends insufferable. The characters are human one-liners. I find only Lisa Kudrow to be funny, but she's the same kind of funny in everything she does - the kind that appeals to me.
The Big Bang Theory is a Friends upgrade in every regard. The characters have more depth, even if each one may have a few one-note elements. Even with those, however, the characters remain far more relatable, even though probably very few of us know scientists and their friend the Cheesecake Factory waitress. While many of us know the Friends type of friend, none of us know them to behave like that group. Self-indulgent. Uncaring. Not self-aware.
The Big Bang Theory gives us cerebral jokes, down-market jokes, sight gags, and wit. I've had many a "laugh out loud" moments.

With there being so few children's movies out, the pickings are slim when it comes to family fare. This being the case, it became necessary to see Paddington Bear a second time.
I must say that, with the second viewing, I gained an appreciation for the film that I didn't have the first time around. Though it was certainly removed from its London setting, and taken all the way to Peru, several of the individual performances are really quite remarkable - plus a musical number with nuns, and if that doesn't remind you of The Sound of Music, the Reverend Mother singing and swirling on a meadowy mountaintop certainly will.
We see a little more of Paddington's depth. We meet a nun who seems pitch perfect. And we meet Antonio Banderas playing more than one role, hilariously.
So go! But go twice.
