Plot

From the same production team responsible for Two and a Half Men, the CBS "nerd-com" The Big Bang Theory clued the viewer in on what to expect right from the get-go by naming its two main characters "Sheldon" and "Leonard" (though all resemblance to the famous gangster actor-turned-TV producer ended right there!) They were both brilliant physicists, living together in a technology-cluttered apartment, and spending their free time with a circle of fellow geeks from Cal Tech. And, need we add, bbwsof course, Sheldon (Jim Parsons) and Leonard (Johnny Galecki) were despite their hyper-intelligence hopelessly "backward" on a social level; after all, it isn't easy to pick up girls when the only things you know how to talk about are isotopes and video games. Our heroes were thrown for a mobius strip when the incredibly beautiful and voluptuous Penny (Kaley Cuoco), a recent divorcee, moved into the apartment next door. Fascinated by the two "Beautiful Mind Guys", Penny decided to hang around with Sheldon and Leonard whenever possible. Having seldom been in such close proximity to a genuinely gorgeous girl, Leonard was anxious to make a few moves (assuming he knew any!), but Sheldon, perpetually unlucky in love, kept his distance, convinced that he'd only have his heart broken again. Occasionally dropping in for the random punchline were the boys' college pals, the loquacious Howard (Simon Helberg) and the virtually mute Rajesh (Kunai Nayyar). The Big Bang Theory was first networkcast on September 24, 2007. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Cast of characters in The Big Bang Theory. From left: Howard, Leonard, Penny, Sheldon and Rajesh.

The Big Bang Theory is an American sitcom created and executively produced by Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady. It premiered on CBS September 24, 2007.[2]

Set in Pasadena, California, the show concerns two male Caltech prodigies in their twenties, one an experimental physicist (Leonard) and the other a theoretical physicist (Sheldon), who live across the hall from an attractive blonde waitress with show-biz aspirations (Penny). Leonard and Sheldon's geekiness and intellect are contrasted with Penny's social skills and common sense for comedic effect.[3][4] Two equally geeky friends of theirs, Howard and Rajesh, are also main characters.

The show is produced by Warner Bros. Television and Chuck Lorre Productions.[5] In March 2009 it was reported that The Big Bang Theory had been renewed for a third and fourth season by CBS.[6] In August 2009, the sitcom won the best comedy series TCA award and Jim Parsons won the award for individual achievement in comedy.[7] When the third season premiered on September 21, 2009, it ranked as CBS's highest-rated show of that evening in the adults 18-49 demographic (4.6/10), along with a then series-high 12.83 million viewers.[8] The Big Bang Theory airs on Mondays at 9:30 EST following another Chuck Lorre-produced show Two and a Half Men.[9]

Contents

Main cast

  • Jim Parsons[11] as Sheldon Cooper, Ph.D. - Originally from East Texas, he was a child prodigy, starting college at the age of 11, right after completing the 5th grade. As a theoretical physicist, he possesses a master's degree, two Ph.D.s, and an IQ of 187. He exhibits a strict adherence to routine; a lack of understanding of irony, sarcasm and humor; and a complete lack of humility. These characteristics are the main sources of his character's humor and the center of a number of episodes. Sheldon shares an apartment with Leonard Hofstadter. According to his twin sister, Sheldon would send home his imaginary friends at the end of the day, when they were kids. Sheldon's reply: "they were not friends, they were imaginary colleagues."[12]
  • Kaley Cuoco[13] as Penny - The attractive, blonde neighbor who lives across the hall from Sheldon and Leonard's apartment. She has aspirations of a career in show business, and has been to casting calls and auditions, but has not been successful thus far. To pay the bills, she works as a waitress for a Cheesecake Factory restaurant.
  • Simon Helberg[14] as Howard Wolowitz, M.Eng.[15] - He works as an engineer and lives with his mother; they are Jewish. Unlike Sheldon, Leonard, and Raj, Howard lacks a Ph.D. He defends this by pointing out that he has a master's degree in Engineering from MIT and the apparatus he designs is actually built and launched into space, unlike the purely abstract work of his friends. He provides outrageous pick-up lines and fancies himself a ladies man with suitably unimpressed reactions from Penny; however, he has shown some success with other women.
  • Kunal Nayyar[16] as Rajesh Koothrappali, Ph.D. - Rajesh, who originally comes from New Delhi, India, works as a Particle Astrophysicist at CalTech.[17] He is normally very shy to the point of near-muteness in front of females; because the show's scenes often involve Penny, his paucity of dialogue has led to him occasionally being overlooked by the rest of the cast. Only alcohol and experimental pharmaceuticals have provided temporary cures to his chronic shyness. However, on one occasion he was able to say "Good story" (in reference to a Kryptonian villain) to Penny without the aid of either of these.[18] His parents, introduced as Dr. and Mrs V.M Koothrappali, are seen via webcam; his father is a gynaecologist and drives a Bentley, facts that are often pointed out to him when he claims that he was raised in poverty in India.
  • Sara Gilbert as Leslie Winkle, Ph.D. (recurring since season 1)[19][20] – She is an experimental physicist who occasionally sleeps with both Howard and Leonard during the show's airing. She does not get on well with Sheldon Cooper and frequently mocks him. She was promoted to main cast during the second season, but demoted again once the writers realized they could not produce quality material for her for every episode.[19]

Production history

The show's initial pilot, developed for the 2006–07 television season, was substantially different from its current form. Only Jim Parsons and Johnny Galecki were in the cast, and their across-the-hall neighbor (now played by Kaley Cuoco) was a much meaner character. The show was not picked up, but the creators were given an opportunity to revise the show, bringing in the remaining leading cast and retooling the show to its current format.[23]

The second pilot of The Big Bang Theory was directed by James Burrows, who did not continue with the show. This reworked pilot led to a 13-episode order by CBS on May 14, 2007.[24] Prior to its airing on CBS, the pilot episode was distributed on iTunes free of charge. The show premiered September 24, 2007, and was picked-up for a full 22-episode season on October 19, 2007.[25]

Production on the show was halted on November 6, 2007 due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, returning on March 17, 2008 in an earlier time slot[26] and with nine new episodes.[27][28] After the strike's end, the show was picked up for a second season airing in the 2008-2009 season, premiering in the same time slot on September 22, 2008.[29] With increasing ratings, the show received a two-year renewal through the 2010–11 season.[30][31]

David Saltzberg, a professor of physics and astronomy at the University of California, Los Angeles, checks scripts and provides dialogue, math equations, and diagrams used as props.[3] According to executive producer/co-creator Bill Prady, "We're working on giving Sheldon an actual problem that he's going to be working on throughout the [first] season so there's actual progress to the boards ... We worked hard to get all the science right."[4]

Opening theme

Barenaked Ladies wrote and recorded the theme song, which describes developments the universe has undergone since the dawn of time. On October 9, 2007, a full-length (1 minute and 45 seconds) version of the song was released.[32] This theme was considered by TV critic Samantha Holloway to be one of the five most effective theme tunes on TV.[33]
