Hey now, they did not make a ton of money. The only one living alone had wealthy parents. I'm pretty sure they covered the whole research doesn't pay well thing a few times. You're right about the early seasons though, they were very much insulting nerd culture. The later seasons seem to be more a generic dating sitcom with the occasional nerd joke.
