Long before Simon Helberg became a household name as Howard Wolowitz on The Big Bang Theory, he took on a small but unforgettable role in one of Ryan Reynolds’ wildest comedies, Van Wilder. That’s right, this early 2000s movie was packed with outrageous humor and gave both the actors a perfect chance to showcase their comedic timing in the messiest and chaotic way possible.
Now, Van Wilder is set to leave streaming platform Peacock in just 3 days. So, let’s dive deeper to know why Helberg’s over-the-top performance is a must-watch before it disappears.

Hollywood actress Mayim Bialik is alone among The Big Bang Theory alumni, who has yet to join the DC Universe, unlike Kaley Cuoco and Melissa Rauch. Both actresses, who starred alongside Bialik in the CBS sitcom, have donned Harley Quinn’s signature voice role in major DC projects.
Best known for her role in the ’90s sitcom, Blossom, Bialik regained prominence in the industry again with her role as Amy Farrah Fowler in The Big Bang Theory. She earned four Emmy nominations for her performance in the sitcom. However, despite her multifaceted career, a role in the DC Universe remains conspicuously absent.

Most of us just love curling up on the couch, munching on chips or popcorn, and getting lost in our favorite shows. It’s simple, it’s cozy, and it’s the perfect way to relax. But while we’re busy binge-watching, hardly anyone stops to think about how much cash gets poured into making these TV masterpieces.
Over time, TV shows have seriously leveled up — not just with better effects and storytelling, but also with bigger, bolder, and riskier budgets. Top-tier actors, movie-quality special effects, and elaborate sets are now pretty much the norm. In fact, a lot of TV shows today look and feel just as grand as big-screen blockbusters, something that would’ve been almost impossible a few decades ago.
With the stakes and the price tags higher than ever, let’s jump into the mind-blowing world of TV’s most expensive episodes and see where all that cash is going.

The Big Bang Theory wasn’t just a sitcom; it was a cultural phenomenon that turned four quirky scientists into household names. Moreover, it became one of the most beloved shows out there, and fans were absolutely bummed when it ended after season 12.
But did you know that the cast, especially the four leads, could have earned a staggering sum if the show had continued further? But all thanks to Jim Parsons, who brought the know-it-all Sheldon Cooper to life, this dream crashed before it could even take off.
The Big Bang cast would have made $200 million if Jim Parsons had stayed
The Big Bang Theory can easily be one of the biggest shows in television history, with characters that are still perfectly engraved in fans’ hearts. This popularity also meant that the gang earned some serious paychecks.

The fun thing about being a time traveler is that you can often procrastinate on important tasks for as long as you'd like. This was part of the appeal for Amy (Karen Gillan) at the start of "Doctor Who" season 5; she was having second thoughts about marrying Rory the next day, so the Doctor's promise that she could travel through space and time for as long as she wants beforehand seemed like a great deal.
The rest of the season eventually dealt with Amy's doubts about Rory, but it once again ended with the characters procrastinating. This time, it was the Doctor who took his sweet time getting around to an important task: in the finale, he receives a phone call (seemingly from the future queen or king of England) regarding an emergency situation. In the future there's apparently a train that runs in space called the Orient Express, and...

Alright, stop us if you’ve heard this one: a nerdy comic book store owner, a quirky geologist, a snarky Caltech antagonist, and a sweet assistant manager walk into a spin-off. No, no…it’s not a bad joke—it’s the lineup for Chuck Lorre’s forthcoming The Big Bang Theory spinoff, and we’re already feeling the excitement build up like a chemistry experiment gone right.
Well, we’re sure the idea of the return of those characters— the ones that made us roll our eyes, laugh hysterically, and sometimes cringe— is enough to make any fan of the original show do a double-take.

People always found Sheldon Cooper in The Big Bang Theory interesting, which is exactly why the character got his very own spin-off, focusing on his childhood and how he grew into the man-child everyone knows him as. In doing so, the show explored the character’s family, with whom the audience also fell in love.

If The Big Bang Theory wants to create another prequel series similar to Young Sheldon, Penny is the best character to focus on. The sitcom about a group of socially awkward scientists and friends is still popular several years after it ended, leading to speculation that there will someday be a The Big Bang Theory revival. In the meantime, it has already spawned two spinoffs. Young Sheldon, which focused on Sheldon's childhood, ran for seven years on CBS before making way for Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, which is the first spinoff not to revolve around Sheldon.
Young Sheldon's phenomenal success has led to speculation and debate over ranking prequel ideas starring other The Big Bang Theory characters. Theoretically, any of the main characters could be spun off into a prequel series, as little is known about any of their childhoods or the events that shaped them into the people...

It’s safe to say the Elsbeth promotors are trying to pull a fast one on its loyal fan base with a promo we know doesn’t begin to scratch the surface. Then again, how could it with a guest appearance from Laurie Metcalf?
If you’re like this TV Fanatic, you were fully expecting some hint of what’s to come from the titular character’s new rival and most significant threat, Judge Milton.
Only a show like Elsbeth could pair a wife and husband for some of the juiciest developments on a show already brimming with quality writing and acting.

At least viewers never have to worry about things going stale or the comedy falling flat. Especially not when they’re bringing in broadcast TV vets known for their perfect comedic timing.

The popular quiz game show Jeopardy is known for its unique format and fun yet informative clues. Hosted by Ken Jennings, the competition is a fan-favorite game reality series. Instead of the usual answer-the-question format, Jeopardy provides players with answers who are expected to guess what the clue is describing. Once they think about it, they must phrase their response as a question.

The Big Bang Theory universe can no longer do a Young Penny spinoff because Kaley Cuoco has already done something similar. Unlike the usual reason for cancelations, CBS ended The Big Bang Theory not because of the lack of interest from the public. Instead, it wrapped up its run because Jim Parsons decided to leave the show as Sheldon Cooper. Luckily, Chuck Lorre and the rest of the team found a way to continue capitalizing on The Big Bang Theory's popularity with Young Sheldon, which tackled Sheldon's childhood in Texas before moving to California.
After The Big Bang Theory's finale in 2019, the franchise thrived for five more years with Young Sheldon. What started as supplementary viewing for the nerd-centric sitcom ended up being a hit show on its own, as Sheldon and the rest of the family immediately became fan-favorites.

Deadline confirms that HBO has won the bidding for Kanas City Star. Led by Cuoco, who also executive produces, the half-hour show is described as a comedy with heart. The story centers on a semi-famous actress who returns to her hometown to work with a regional theater troupe. Kanas City Star hails from Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs, and Jen Statsky, the trio behind the Emmy-winning Max comedy Hacks.

Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage picks up shortly after the passing of George Cooper Sr. at the end of Young Sheldon. Two episodes into the sequel series, it's clear how much of an impact the family's loss has been having on the Coopers.
In the second episode of the series, "Some New York Nonsense," Georgie (Montana Jordan) mistakenly believes he's having a heart attack before learning that it's heightened anxiety. Joined by sister Missy (Raegan Revord), the siblings venture out to George's grave, and Georgie proceeds to make continued visits to their late father. Series executive producer Steve Holland has addressed the elder George's presence in the new series, hinting that Georgie will continue to make visits at different points in the show.

While Young Sheldons spinoff Georgie & Mandys First Marriage always seemed like it would inevitably have a major Sheldon problem, the shows issue is not one that viewers might anticipate. It is always hard for sitcom spinoffs to establish a fresh new tone of their own. From Frasier to Joey, plenty of sitcom spinoffs have tried to make their main characters compelling in the absence of their former costars with carrying degrees of success. However, the title of Young Sheldons spinoff Georgie & Mandys First Marriage alone proves that the new show has a compelling hook that doesnt rely on Sheldon.

Considering Jim Parsons’ career was dominated by his portrayal of Sheldon Cooper throughout the 2010s, comparisons between his The Big Bang Theory counterpart and himself were bound to happen. But opposed to his geek persona in the hit sitcom, Parsons confessed he doesn’t share many of Sheldon’s traits that make him a geek icon.

The news that The Big Bang Theorys new spinoff will star Stuart brings up a major potential problem for the series. Like most hit sitcoms, The Big Bang Theory spawned spinoffs. Unlike most successful TV comedies, the shows follow-ups werent simply sequels that followed a specific character on a new adventure. Instead, after The Big Bang Theorys finale, Young Sheldon went back in time to explore the early life of the shows breakout character. The spinoff changed the entire premise as Young Sheldon was a single-camera family sitcom whereas The Big Bang Theory was a multi-camera hang-out show.

The Night Court reboot is returning for a third season, and it's happening sooner than most fans expected. The NBC hit show, after two successful seasons, will hit the platform again this fall. Led by The Big Bang Theory's lead star Melissa Rauch and the series' own John Larroquette, the upcoming season will feature the return of both, along with the series' usual fun-filled drama.
Night Court Season 2 left fans reeling from a possible blood connection between Dan and Jake. With Olivia's actor leaving the show, Dan will soon learn about another surprise return of someone from his past. Season 3 will no doubt be an important season for Dan, though the character has been through a lot already in the past two seasons. The upcoming season will likely see the prospector again being wrapped up in some sticky situations.

The Big Bang Theory prequel series Young Sheldon ended on a sour note, wrapping up after the death of the Cooper family patriarch. However, while the George Cooper character was killed off in Young Sheldon, there's a chance he could still appear in the show's new sequel series, Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage.
Set to debut on Oct. 17, Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage will primarily follow Georgie (Montana Jordan) and Mandy (Emily Osment), though other Young Sheldon stars will be making guest appearances. Given George's death, it may not seem likely that the character will be popping up in the new series, though there may be creative ways of bringing him back.

Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage completes Young Sheldon's transition to becoming a proper family sitcom by fully severing ties with The Big Bang Theory. Young Sheldon's cancelation leaves a big hole in network TV as its leading comedy, something that Chuck Lorre, Steve Holland, and Steven Molaro's new project attempts to fill. While Sheldon's origin story set the bar high, Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage is poised to be a worthy replacement. Not only is the new show essentially a direct sequel to Young Sheldon, but many of its on and off-screen talent were also involved in its predecessor.

Although Sheldon grew a lot throughout The Big Bang Theory, one of his most promising character arcs was cut short by his most iconic romantic gesture. By The Big Bang Theorys finale, it is fair to say that Sheldon had grown since the shows pilot. His Nobel Prize acceptance speech saw a formerly obstinate, arrogant character express humility and selflessness as he devoted all his successes to the support of his wife, his friends, and his family. However, Sheldons character growth was far from linear. He often displayed surprising kindness, only to act more self-centered than ever an episode later.

The premiere of Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage is on the horizon. With the hotly-anticipated Young Sheldon spinoff set to debut in less than a month, co-lead Montana Jordan has been asked again about the meaning behind the show's title.
While promoting Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage at the CBS: A Night of Sit-down Comedy event, Jordan remained tight-lipped when asked by TooFab if he could explain the inclusion of "First" in front of "Marriage" in the title. "I don't know, I don't make them choices, I just do my job. I just wake up, show up," the actor replied with a smile. With The Big Bang Theory revealing that Georgie is twice divorced, fans are curious to learn if the upcoming spinoff will attempt to retcon this information by making Mandy his wife for both marriages (and divorces).

The Big Bang Theory's next spinoff may feature a returning original cast member an effective reminder of its worst crime in 12 seasons. Chuck Lorre may have been focused on launching Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, which is set on the heels of the Young Sheldon finale, but the producer has also been further expanding his universe via a third offshoot. It was actually announced before Montana Jordan and Emily Osment's show was confirmed. Considering that, there's an expectation that the untitled The Big Bang Theory spinoff will be directly tied to the Pasadena gang rather than Sheldon's childhood.
The last time Lorre was asked about the project back in July 2024, he said that it was still in the "pre-natal" stage. Whether he was telling the truth or just trying to evade further probing questions about the third The Big Bang Theory spinoff is uncertain. Regardless, however, the fact that...

The Big Bang Theory necessarily changed moments and character arcs that Young Sheldon established. Different phases of Sheldons life being recounted in Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory inevitably created plot holes that made retcons necessary in the prequel series, especially considering how the perspective of one sitcom sometimes diverged from that of the other. Indeed, Young Sheldon focusing on Sheldons early years recounted from an older Sheldons perspective in light of a memoir inherently makes the storys point of view Sheldons, contrasting with The Big Bang Theorys, which was external thus more objective despite TBBTs focus on Sheldon.
Sheldons point of view gave harsher depictions of his past in both Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory, even if the prequels timing well after the end of the parent series made it possible for some of Young Sheldon's details to solve The Big Bang Theorys plot holes. However,...

While The Big Bang Theory rarely downplayed Sheldons character flaws, one episode of the series highlighted an awkward reality about his romantic relationship with Amy. By the time The Big Bang Theorys series finale aired, it was clear that the shows breakout character had become its new protagonist. Although the show originally focused on the romance between Johnny Galeckis nebbish Leonard and Kaley Cuocos glamorous Penny, Jim Parsons Sheldon won over viewers and became The Big Bang Theorys lead in later seasons. This resulted in a lot of funny adventures, but a strange character arc for the antihero.

The Big Bang Theory was an unexpected hit, becoming one of the most-watched sitcoms of the 21st Century. The series had mixed reviews in its first season, which debuted on CBS in late September 2007. However, audiences soon fell in love with the amiable nerds and their friend, Penny. That popularity helped the show become one of the longest-running sitcoms ever. The Big Bang theory also played a significant role in bringing nerd culture to the forefront of the mainstream public consciousness.
Over 12 seasons, The Big Bang Theory introduced long-running gags, witty characters, endless cameos, and storylines that ranged from hilarious to heartwarming. It garnered legions of awards and nominations, then inspired a popular and sometimes surprising spinoff, Young Sheldon, debuting its seventh and final season in May 2024. Now, a spinoff of the spinoff is set to debut in the fall of 2024, Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage. The show went out on a high,...

While The Big Bang Theory often followed the sitcom playbook, the shows Howard and Bernadette relationship offered a clever subversion of one tired trope. In many ways, The Big Bang Theorys cast of characters wasnt so different from most sitcom lineups. They may have shared nerdy interests, but Leonard, Penny, Sheldon, Amy, Bernadette, Howard, and Raj had a lot in common with the lead characters of How I Met Your Mother, Friends, and New Girl. There was the perpetually single male character, the happily married couple with children, and the central couple who constantly got together and broke up repeatedly.

Although Young Sheldons spinoff Georgie & Mandys First Marriage needs to center its title characters and their relationship, the sitcom must also find time to explain Meemaws character change in The Big Bang Theory. By the time Young Sheldons finale aired, The Big Bang Theorys spinoff had fixed a lot of plot holes left open by its predecessor. The antepenultimate episode of the series ended with the off-screen death of Sheldons father, George Sr., and the subsequent episodes focused on his legacy. Earlier outings from the final season explained away his infidelity and other inconsistencies between the two shows.
However, Young Sheldons spinoff Georgie & Mandys First Marriage has plenty of other plot holes to patch up. The sitcom pointedly ended with Georgie and Mandy happily married, even though viewers already know this doesnt last. In The Big Bang Theory season 11, episode 23, The Sibling Realignment, an older Georgie mentioned his ex-wife in passing.

Sheldon's character flaws held back The Big Bang Theory's potential, with his self-centered attitude becoming more pronounced over time. Sheldon's refusal of Penny's acting lessons showcased his worst flaw, as his arrogance and tactlessness grew in later seasons. The show missed an opportunity to explore Sheldon's growth by avoiding a longer storyline of him learning acting from Penny.
While The Big Bang Theory often mined laughs from Sheldons character flaws, one disappointing outing proved that these same traits held back the hit sitcoms potential. The Big Bang Theorys entire cast of characters were beloved, and they collectively earned the series a massive fan base. However, as the show continued, it became clear that there was one breakout character. There is a reason that Young Sheldon was The Big Bang Theorys first spinoff, and it is that Jim Parsons Sheldon Cooper proved the shows signature character. Sheldon was stubborn,...
