About
As of 2026, it's 19 years old.
The Big Bang Theory built a ratings empire on the once-niche idea that socially awkward physicists could be sitcom leads, complete with comic books, equations on whiteboards, and a neighbor who patiently translated their world for everyone else. Love it or roll your eyes, it became one of the most-watched comedies in the world.
Sheldon's rigid quirks and 'Bazinga' made him a phenomenon, and the show ran for twelve hugely popular seasons of geek-flavored multi-camera comedy.
Broad, popular, and impossible to ignore, The Big Bang Theory is the sitcom that made physics jokes and 'soft kitty' into a global juggernaut.
