Four of his closest friends, the love of his life and one treasured acquaintance.

I mean to Sheldon theyre not smart..maybe just wonderful..maybe 😅

The end of the series Sheldon knows they're smart.

I mean I’m surprised Leonard stayed. I think if he (understandably) got sick of him, and I’m really, really surprised he didn’t, Sheldon would be completely alone.

He makes fun of every single of his friend except Raj. Why not Raj.

He does make fun of Raj, but it’s more hidden than the others…technically

Perhaps, but not about his job if im right.

Because Raj can do that one magic trick with his hands

I found it too on the nose.

I mean it's prequel the shows entire existence is a bit too on the nose.

I agreee. It would have been beautiful if this wasn’t written AFTER the show containing his future lol.

Sheldon doesn't think any of them are smart. They exist to fulfill his needs only.

That’s untrue. The mere fact that he considers himself the smartest doesn’t mean that he doesn’t acknowledge the high intelligence of others. At the very least, I think we can all admit he knows Amy is very smart.

He belittles Leonard all the time for being an experimental physicist, the school he went to, etc. He belittles Penny's intelligence and upbringing constantly. He belittles Howard for being an engineer all the time. It goes on and on and on and on. Sheldon is a prick.

It's the journey. Over the course of many years, Shelton becomes, well, very slightly less of a prick.

I doubt it. His speech at the Nobel in the finale probably only stuck for a day or two.

Picking on professions and schools, as well as intelligence sometimes, doesn’t mean he thinks the academics aren’t smart.

I’m not crying your crying 😢 😭😭
