Communication- Verbal/Non-verbal

I choose to watch "The Big Bang Theory". I haven't watched the show but my children record it and watch often so I decided I would check it out. The show starts off with friends all in a comic book store. They are all talking and I witness many facial expression among them. The guy at the counter says something and you can immediately see the excitement in the others face because they all run to the counter. The group of guys look as if they are fussing about something. As the show moves on it shows one of the guys girlfriend come into scene and she has this confused look on her face about what has been said to her by her boyfriend. He is laughing and carry on but she is not. As I continue to watch this show I see many facial expression among the cast and I really do not seem to understand what is going on with them all. Watching the show with sound on gave me a better understanding of what was happening. The show takes place in a comic book store where the friends are discussing a famous author coming to visit the bookstore and everyone is getting excited. One of the friends is a huge fan and is getting really excited about meeting this person. They are not at all fussing they were all just excited about meeting someone they admire. When watching the scence with the girlfriend the reason she has the confused look is that she does not know who this famous person is that her boyfriend is talking about so she is confused and he is excited. Again, there is alot of body language and facial expression in this show. I don't know if I would assumed all of the charcters roles correctly if I watched this show often. This is one of those shows that I can not get into. There is alot of different scences going on in this show for me to understand. I guess it is a show made for the younger generation and not the older like me. Your ability to communicate is an important tool in your pursuit of your goals, whether it is with your family, your co-workers or your clients and customers.
