The Big Bang Theory
2007-2019
Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper are both
brilliant physicists working at Cal Tech in Pasadena, California. They
are colleagues, best friends, and roommates, although in all capacities
their relationship is always tested primarily by Sheldon's regimented,
deeply eccentric, and non-conventional ways. They are also friends with
their Cal Tech colleagues mechanical engineer Howard Wolowitz and
astrophysicist Rajesh Koothrappali. The foursome spend their time
working on their individual work projects, playing video games, watching
science-fiction movies, or reading comic books. As they are
self-professed nerds, all have little or no luck with women. When Penny,
a pretty woman and an aspiring actress from Omaha, moves into the
apartment across the hall from Leonard and Sheldon's, Leonard has
another aspiration in life, namely to get Penny to be his girlfriend.
