A story about four men that are smart. One couldn't talk, one was a know it all, was lactose intolerant and one...had the haircut style of the Beatles.
How did it all start? Well, it started when a young blonde moves in across the hall from Sheldon and Leonard.
Her name was Penny.
Ever since the first episode, people got hooked. Soon adding more people like Sheldon's rival Kripke, Leonard's first girlfriend (who was played by Sara Gilbert) and many more interesting people and guest stars.
By the middle of the 3rd season, another lady would come into one of their lives. Her name was Bernadette.
Portrayed by Melissia Rauch, Bernadette was the new girlfriend of one of the guys, Howard. She would stay there until the last episode which will be airing soon.
For me, there are some moments that I thought were memorable. Like with Penny trying to get an acting career as she was waitressing at the Cheesecake Factory. She finally got her big break, or so she thought, but they cut her line out from a popular TV show.
She thinks that her career is going south, and eventually tries to ask Leonard for her hand in marriage.
It didn't work out the way she wanted it to, but soon...it would happen.
Sheldon gets to meet his idol, Stephen Hawking when Howard was working for him. It took some pleas, some chores and even telling Howard how good he is at his job for it to work. He finally gets to meet his hero, only to be in embarrassed by a mistake he made on a paper.
There were other celebrities that were there. Some portraying themselves, or as someone else. One was Bob Newhart, or as he was called Professor Proton.
After meeting him, let's just say, Bob Newhart would give good advice to Sheldon, living or dead, which his character was most of the time. He feared Sheldon, wondering if he was dangerous
Wil Wheaton was another actor that would appear on as well. He was friends to everyone, except Sheldon. He always thought of Wheaton as his enemy because of him...being a huge fan of Star Trek and after something that happened to him when he was young, he could never forgive Wheaton.
He loses a came of cards to him, Leonard loses Penny from a bowling incident that involved Wheaton as well.
He eventually apologizes to Sheldon, giving him a Wesley action figure and they had been friends ever since...well until.
After Bob Newhart's Professor Proton died, Wheaton took over as the new Professor Proton.
Raj, well he rarely talked or said a word in the first season. Having a fear of talking in front of women unless he was drunk. He sleeps with Penny at the end of the third season, and after finally having a girlfriend, he strikes out and eventually...a miracle happens.
When Penny is consoling him, he tells her that he hasn't had a drink, and wow....it seems he could finally talk to women. He eventually gets a few more girlfriends and well...at least he's trying, even if he is now getting married because of his tradition of a girl who wants to break up with him.
And then...there's Amy Farrah Fowler. Sheldon's girlfriend. As they met in the end of the third season, they had become an item and eventually, Sheldon falls head over heals (Well not at first, but he soon does) They even get married.
Will Wheaton was going to be the priest to wed both Amy and Sheldon, but MARK HAMIL takes over instead? How, Howard found his lost dog.
And for Howard, well, his character became a dad, twice (first time was just because, but the second time, Melissa Rach was pregnant and they added the pregnancy in the show) Howard and Bernadette have two kids, Raj is somewhat getting married and Penny and Leonard, they too are married.
Before Sheldon married Amy, Leonard tied the knot with Penny, and they got married quick style in Vegas, but eventually did another ceremony for the family and friends.
How will it end? there are so many questions surrounding the last episode, even bringing everyone, even the actors to tears.
Will Howard's unknown father be revealed, Will Penny be pregnant, will Amy be pregnant, will the elevator for the first time in over 12 years? Yes even the elevator in their apartment has never worked. Maybe for the last episode, it will, Sheldon, Penny and Leonard walk in, and then it breaks.
Or Penny reveals to Leonard that she is pregnant. Raj finally finds the courage to find love, or get married to someone he doesn't love and breaks up with her.
God only knows how it will end, but we know, we've been with these people for over 12 years and how it will end, will somewhat surprise us. Hopefully well not as bad as Seinfeld, but for some reason, I'll shed a tear when it ends.
