TV show description:
Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons) are best friends, roommates, and brilliant physicists at CalTech. They understand how the universe works but have little interest in the people around them.
That begins to change when an attractive young waitress and wanna-be actress, Penny (Kaley Cuoco), moves into the apartment across the hall. Leonard becomes immediately smitten with the free-spirited girl and tries to forge a relationship with her, much to the confusion and consternation of Sheldon.
The geniuses’ equally geeky coworkers are smarmy Howard Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) and Rajesh Koothrappali (Kunal Nayyar), an immigrant from India who finds it difficult to talk to most females.
Is the universe bigger than the scientists previously believed?

The Big Bang Theory & How I met your Mother & Two & Half Men are the best sit coms on TV.
I love this show! My 14 year old daughter and I watch it together!
There are so few that we both like! Please don’t cancel this show!
There are very few shows on TV worth watching but Big Bang Theory is the only show that I purposely sit down to watch. It’s funny and the chemistry between its stars is great. Please don’t cancel it.
haha extremely funny show, and the cast is great. specially Kaley Cuoco (penny) DA** that girl is hot.
I love it when Sheldon knocks on Penny’s door and repeats over and over “Penny, “Penny”, “Penny’, until she answers
Big Bang Theory is by far my ALL TIME favorite sitcom.
My only regret is that I can’t watch it while eating dinner or I’ll shoot milk out my nose! again, and again, and again.
My favorite episode was “The Adhesive Duck Deficiency”
That one was just too funny!
Sheldon is absolutely one of the best character talking about current sit-com. Obviously thanks to Jim Parsons.
TBBT & HIMYM over all.
S.B. Roma, Italia.
Watched The Big Bag Theory as (I thought) a one-off to fill in a 1/2 hour.
Man was I wrong!…Incredible production, directing, writing and last
but not least…some of the finest acting on any sit-com today. The
wacky five have me actually laughing out loud with each episode.
Where did they find Jim Parsons ? A new face to me…How many
takes to deliver that brilliant, convoluted dialog??
Incredible cast…facially expressive… Love them all !!
