Do you believe in the magic power of lucky numbers?
Sheldon Cooper has a favorite number, too.
Now prepare to hear more weird coincidences: Sheldon explains why he loves the number in episode 73.
AND Jim Parsons, who portrays Sheldon, was born in 1973!
Isn’t it crazy!
No wonder Leonard said that 73 is the Chuck Norris of numbers.
In fact, numerical symbolism plays a big role on the show.
For example, Amy’s apartment number is 314 - which stands for the Pi constant.
Wil Wheaton appeared on the show in several episodes.
In one of them you can spot the number of his fictional home.
And it is 1701 - a reference to his role in Star Trek.
The USS Enterprise’s registry number was NCC-1701-D.
Howard’s room is often shown on the show, but have you ever paid close attention to
its decoration?
It’s full of superhero figurines, comic books and lightsabers, but still it’s an
ordinary boys room.
If you look closer, you’ll notice that Howard has only female superheroes.
Howard thinks he’s such a good ladies man.
No wonder he’s so obsessed with them.
All the characters on the Big Bang Theory had to learn how to play their musical instruments.
Leonard was playing the violin with Leslie, while Sheldon was playing the bongos.
Raj and Howard played the guitar and keyboards for their band performance.
But the weirdest instrument was the Theremin.
Now, Jim Parsons can really play it.
One more lifehack in the box, Jim!
Just not sure when he’s going to use it….
Can you recall Penny’s last name?
We’ll give you a couple of seconds to think.
Hard to remember?
Of course!
She doesn’t have one!
It’s crazy, but Penny’s last name was never given on the show and never will be.
It's confirmed by executive producer Steve Molaro.
In the end of the ninth season it is revealed that Penny accidentally got married to Zack Johnson.
Penny thought that she had a “silly wedding ceremony” in Las Vegas just for fun but
was shocked to find out in the Thanksgiving episode that the joke wedding was actually legit.
Perhaps her last name for a couple of seasons was Johnson.
The show's creator, however, revealed that her last name is Barrington during an interview
for the show's ninth season.
Plus, we don’t know Penny’s full name.
Perhaps Miss Moneypenny?
If you come up with a better version, let us know in the comments below!
The word Bazinga, which Sheldon often uses to show he made a joke, originated in the
writers room.
One of the co-writers pranked the other, giving him a carefully scooped-out grapefruit that
was perfectly put back together.
When the script writer tried to eat it, his colleague shouted "Bazinga."
And it became a word loved by millions.
Even a bee, the Euglossa Bazinga, was named after it.
Oh la la, what a beauty!
It's a new type of a bee discovered in Brazil in 2012.
Great news for the die-hard fans of the show!
If you are older than 18, you can visit the Big Bang Theory set and be in the live audience
when filming the show for free.
Maybe you’ll hear your own laughter on TV!
The Big Bang characters are all huge fans of Star Wars.
Well, who isn’t?
Anyway, Sheldon’s YouTube nickname once popped up on the screen, and it said “ob1”
That's a reference to Obi-Wan Kenobi from the movie.
Can you believe how well all the details are planned out?
Sheldon's T-shirt collection is one of the greatest things on the show.
Fans are trying hard to replicate his shirts.
Sheldon often wears my favorite ones - cool Flash T-shirts.
Only one thing can make it more exciting: a character on The Flash wearing a Big Bang
shirt that says: “This is my spot.”
My brain is burning from the crossover of universes because this is just awesome!
It’s a sure thing for kids to have their voices change while growing up.
But not for a 30-year-old woman.
Bernadette’s famous high-pitched voice wasn’t the same when she appeared in the first episodes.
As the character has evolved, the actress made the decision to change her voice to highlight
the contrast of the character.
She modeled her sweet voice after her mother, and her wrathful and eerie voice for Mrs Wolowitz
imitates her father’s voice.
But none of her friends, or boyfriend Howard, seem to notice it.
Wouldn’t you freak out if your adult friend had a voice change?
Almost all of the main characters on the show are scientists, no wonder their work is often
shown on the screen.
It takes a lot of precise checking and approving from real life physicists to make the scenes
look good.
All equations are approved by David Saltzberg, except for one, which was copied from the
Indiana Jones movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark.
And it turned out to be wrong!
What a pity, Professor Jones!
Penny’s apartment is always messy, but even through all the stacks of dirty laundry and
empty wine bottles, the most observant fans noticed that her fridge
is covered with real pictures of Kaley Cuoco posing with the cast and crew members of the
Big Bang Theory.
I bet the actors feel right at home when they work on the set!
One more link between the Big Bang and another TV show.
Halloween is one of the most favorite holidays for the BBT characters besides the comic con
convention.
It’s one more occasion to wear cool superhero costumes.
Choosing the right outfit is a demanding responsibility that only gets tougher when you are a couple.
When Sheldon and Amy decided on their Halloween costumes, Amy suggest Blossom and Joey.
It just happens to be the smart, sassy Blossom Russo that she played in the actual 90’s
sitcom, Blossom.
As you may remember, Sheldon has a couple
of favorite songs, including one from the Ninja Turtles cartoon.
The funny thing is that one of the BBT writers
is actually the author of the song for the cartoon.
The melody for the song Soft Kitty, which lyrics we all now know, was borrowed from
a Polish children's song from the 19th century.
The director Bill Prady heard the song from his
little daughter and decided to include it in the show.
The Big Bang Theory sounds really cool, especially due to the catchy opening song.
But it turns out that the initial name was different: “Lenny, Penny and Kenny”.
Okay, we know who Lenny and Penny are, but who’s Kenny?
Looks like that was nearly the name given to Sheldon Cooper.
I cannot imagine Sheldon being Kenny, can you?
But all in all, Sheldon Cooper and Leonard Hofstadter got their names in honor of producer
Sheldon Leonard, whom the show writers adore.
There’s one more nod to physics, too, as both last names Hofstadter and Cooper belong
to real-life Nobel Prize winners.
There's even a trick in each episode's title.
They all include a nod to some scientific theory.
The loved nerdy characters on the show adore their super heroes.
When they visit comic con conventions, they wear costumes and T-shirts with superhero
prints of Batman, Flash, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and Superman.
But its probably not just to portray their deep love for these characters.
As it turns out, the BBT and these comics belong to the same company, Warner Inc.
We have waited so long for Penny and Leonard to get together.
They had an on-and-off relationship for several seasons until the final version 2.0 of their
romance led to their wedding.
As it turns out, Kaley and John were not just a couple on the set alone.
The actors had a secret romance for two years but it was revealed only after the relationship
ended in 2010.
The couple did not comment on the reason for their breakup.
They agreed to keep it professional and mutually ended the relationship.
Both actors are very protective of the show's storyline.
Kaley is now married to hottie equestrian Karl Cook.
But don’t miss the chance with Johnny Galecki.
He is still single, ladies!
The sound of the Big Bang
The Big Bang Theory intro is one of those catchy songs that perfectly fits the sitcom.
It was chosen by a lucky coincidence.
The full original soundtrack for the show was released only after the show was aired.
The front man of the band Barenaked Ladies did an improv rap performance at one of their
concerts about the real big bang theory after reading a book about it.
Imagine the surprise of the show's producers, who happened to be at the concert, to here
that song.
They rushed to singer and begged him to write the theme song for the show.
Raj's biggest fear
Though actor Kunal Nayyar is married to an Indian supermodel in real-life, his character
experiences an extreme fear of interacting with women.
His character feature was based on the real-life phobia of the show's executive producer, Bill Prady.
Sheldon is for sure the most extraordinary character on the show.
It’s no surprise that he got his own spin-off show, Young Sheldon.
It tells the story of Sheldon’s life growing up in Texas and going to high school at the
age of nine.
If you are a great fan of Sheldon Cooper, this has to be on your must-watch list.
Just imagine the hilarious situations with little Shelly trying to fit in in a grown-up world.
The show has a lot of references to other shows mentioned above.
But it seems that there’s one show the script writers of BBT are crazy about - Doctor Who.
Looks like this time Tardis landed in Pasadena.
You will notice the blue door of Tardis in Amy’s room.
Tardis was also a part of Leonard and Penny’s Halloween night.
Sheldon's most significant ritual is getting up at 6:15 am and watching Doctor Who on BBC America.
In fact, the fans of the show counted 10 references. How many did you notice?
Anyway, the show is still going strong, so we are expecting to find out more cute details
