Big bang theory? Love on the Spectrum, I would say Mr Robot, but that goes way beyond ASD
Big Bang Theory has no autistic characters, despite Jim Parsons' stereotypical portrayal. He's written that way to make fun of people with ASD, but with plausible deniability.
Also, I love the people on Love on the Spectrum, but despise the editing. The cutesy music feeds into an infantilization that the edit then reinforces.
