Summer Glau to Appear on BBT! (Source)

This has been a big week for The Big Bang Theory's nerd herd. First, they score their best ratings ever, and now they're getting to rub elbows with frakkin' Summer Glau!

The Sarah Connor Chronicles siren will play herself in the March 9 episode, the set-up of which already has me ROFWLing: A train trip to San Francisco takes a major detour when Leonard, Sheldon, Wolowitz, and Raj discover that their favorite sci-fi actress in all the land is on board. But the fanboy frenzy quickly gives way to a heated mass debate (tee-hee) when they realize one of them will have to approach her -- but who?

It's not too difficult to figure out how this cheeky cross-over came about, provided you know this little detail: The Big Bang Theory and Sarah Connor Chronicles (which returns this Friday) are both produced by Warner Bros.

Well, what happened between them in this latest episode is a bit further than anything else, so they can't just shrug it off. Or I hope they can't just shrug it off.

Yeah, he "caught" feeling for her :laugh:

He shrugged off an entire successful girlfriend, so I don't really know if the writers have some sense of purpose with the things that they do.

Leonard's mother annoyed the crap out of me :/

That was the point? :unsure:

^ me too. And she would be better as the mother of sheldon...

Sheldon wouldn't be that odd if his mother was like that. It would be the family style.

Anyone else think that CBS should do a Big Bang Theory/How I Met Your Mother crossover? I wonder what Barney would think when he meets Kaley. Hmmm

Don't think it would work. The series have totally different tones. TBBT is all about "cartoon" style storylines and has no regard for continuity, the characters are over-the-top exaggerations put in surreal/nerdy/geeky situations. Don't see how Barney would work in there. And then would they simply ignore the emotional scarring that comes with it? :laugh:

CBS to ask for 2 More Seasons of BBT

CBS is to sign a 'mega' renewal of The Big Bang Theory and Two And A Half Men, reports Variety.

Three new seasons of Two And A Half Men will reportedly be ordered, while The Big Bang Theory will secure a two-season deal.

The renewal will take Men into its ninth season and Big Bang into its fourth.

The deal is rumoured to be part of a settlement between Warner Bros. TV and CBS following their dispute over Men last year, which resulted in a lawsuit being filed.

The Big Bang Theory currently airs on CBS on Mondays at 8pm, while Two And A Half Men goes out at 9pm.

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.

      That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
