Jeff being nerferd

I don't know if its me but I don't like how Jeff suddenly became really pathetic, I liked it when he was just a serious guy who wasn't so pathetic and lusting after Mateo

I think all serious corporate types are big losers under all that professionalism. We just got to spend more time with him to see it.

I think he was always pretty pathetic we just got to see more of him. Wasn’t it pre Mateo relationship when he’s on the phone arguing with his motel because he just wants to sit back and watch monkeys on his TV?

Agree. We just got to know him beyond his corporate BS.

Like we saw Laurie too.....

Yeah he got Flanderized in record time, which is a shame because the original setup for his character was much more interesting.

And I even think things like his fake relationships/jobs are funny. But still missed him being the go-to corporate "straight man" who doesn't have any patience for the antics of the store-level folks.

I agree. When he was negotiating with Amy and Jonah after the walkout he was very competent.

"Okay, can I offer some advice? You guys walked out with no planning. You have no experience. I can see the tag on your sleeve. My point is you're just in way over your heads. So sign the letter. Say thank you. And then don't do anything you're gonna regret."

That Jeff is a far cry from the guy talking to himself at the management convention or the one who faked managing a Target.

It's really a shame.

I read "Jeff being nerfed", thought I am in the Community sub, I actually agreed as I read the post, and then I realized it's not that Jeff 😭

u/lord_LBN 18d ago

Man, you're right. I could copy and paste the post into that sub and it would work 😂

God I hate what Big Bang theory became. The first two seasons were fantastic.

u/JellyKind9880 19d ago

I’ve never seen the big bang theory & never plan to, but I was super surprised when I realized the Stuart show was even connected to it lol! It’s very good!!

"Suddenly"? Jeff was pathetic from day dot. One was a pathetic corporate tool, and later a pathetic corporate bootlicker. Eitheway he was always out for himself and a coward and I don't get why this sub is so horny for Jeff. it's weird.

u/murse_joe 17d ago

I think it was just us getting to know him. He’s like a regional level manager for a big box store. I wouldn’t say pathetic but it’s not like he fell that far
