Since 1997, fans of some of the most popular sitcoms ever
broadcast — The Big Bang Theory, Two and
a Half Men, Mike & Molly and Dharma
& Greg — have been granted a fleeting glimpse
each week into the unfettered and uncompromising mind of the
incredibly prolific creative force behind those series,
Chuck Lorre. That's because Lorre devotes exactly one second
of airtime per show to expressing his deepest thoughts at
the end of the credits on his now-infamous vanity cards,
which for many years could only be enjoyed by freeze-framing
on a VCR and squinting to read the tiny, wobbling words.
Now, for the first time ever, hundreds of Lorre's witty and
insightful musings have been gathered together in a
limited-edition, slipcase book from Chuck Lorre
himself that reveals a hilarious, thought-provoking
and scandalous body of work unlike any other creative
endeavor. Veering from philosophical treatises to personal
revelations to the occasional furious diatribe, Lorre never
shies away from controversy — even in the face of
network censorship, as has often happened. But never fear:
Every word on the original vanity cards included in this
curated selection is here — even the censored texts
that never made it to air. Enhanced with sly, ingenious
illustrations and designs that capture the off-kilter
essence of Lorre's bite-sized dispatches, What Doesn't
Kill Us Makes Us Bitter will change the way you think
about life, the universe and TV — or at least it'll
save your eyesight.
