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.

    • Well I've done a grand total of nothing, and it now clocks between 2010mhz and 1995mhz (stock is 1710mhz) and hovers around 80c, warmer than it used to, but tolerable clocks seem to have returned. Thanks for all the advice on this thread. Will review the evidence and make a choice.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
