when i started watching the show i couldn't stand him, but now -12 years later- sheldon is one of my faves

^ Same! When I had seen random episodes on TV now and then, I couldn't stand him. Now that I'm watching the show as its meant to be watched (in order) I love him.

Tbh I lowkey disliked Howard in the first two seasons.. but now he’s one of my ultimate favorites <3333

All of them, actually! I've mentioned before on this site that it took me quite a few episodes to warm up to this show; when I first tried watching an episode I didn't really think it was anything special and found it a bit boring in all [brutal] honesty, but after having a few more episodes on in the background from time to time I soon realised I was starting to love the characters. And now I love this show because I love the characters.

But I guess Raj is probably the one I've grown to love much more than I initially did. Never had anything against him as such, I just didn't find him very interesting at first. Then I got to know him and he's now one of my favourites!

I can't believe how much Howard has grown up & grown on me! He used to be such a creepy little perv so often, and quite the misogynist... He's a lot better thanks to Bernadette!
