According to TV Guide, Melissa Rauch has said, “I was stuffing invitations in the last episode we shot, so we’re moving closer to the wedding.” It’s getting closer and closer to the spring wedding, despite some bumps in the road—such as the issue of the prenup. Speaking of which, Simon Helberg has revealed, “They’ve hinted to me that my character is going to have a conversation with her father, who’ll be a little wary.” That’s sure to be a fun scene, as Howard has to defend himself to Bernadette’s father. After all, he’s going to have to explain to his future father-in-law about his plans to go to space. How will that turn out?
Meanwhile, with the Big Bang Theory wedding coming up, you have to wonder if they’ll have a scene where Howard’s mother meets Bernadette’s family. There’s no one quite like Howard’s mother, and that should be an experience for anyone who meets her for the first time—especially the future in-laws.

A casting call for The Big Bang Theory has suggested that Howard (Simon Helberg) and Bernadette (Melissa Rauch) will go through with their wedding this season.
The on-screen couple will reconsider tying the knot in coming episodes when Wolowitz’s rescheduled NASA mission clashes with their big day.
However, TV Line reports that an actor is currently being sought to play “an overworked clerk at a wedding chapel” – seemingly confirming that there will be a ceremony.
It has also been announced that Justified and Las Vegas star Casey Sander will appear as Bernadette’s father in season five’s penultimate episode ‘The Launch Acceleration’.
Speculation has arisen that the character’s role in the May 3 installment will be to convince Howard and Bernadette to go through with their wedding.

What do you think? Are you for or against Howard and Bernadette?
Johnny Galecki goes for laughs every week as resident genius Leonard Hofstadter on The Big Bang Theory. Now, the actor is changing things up with a role in the science fiction thriller, In Time.
Galecki, 36, talked to Parade.com about his new role, bonding with co-star Justin Timberlake, and Big Bang Theory‘s upcoming 100th episode milestone.
On his latest film, In Time.
“I just thought it was so intelligent and clever. I went in to some meetings with [director] Andrew Niccol to talk about the character, and I said, ‘Why don’t you let me read it?’ I’m never really opposed to auditioning; in fact, I’m more comfortable with it. I probably shouldn’t say this because I’ll be kicking myself later, but you don’t hire a guy to paint your house by sitting down and having coffee with him, you want to see what kind of work he does.”
On stretching his dramatic acting chops.
“That was definitely a draw to this role. I love playing Leonard, but if you have an opportunity to do something different, you jump at it. I was actually doing the movie at night and the TV show during the day and sleeping in my dressing room at Warner Bros. for a couple hours in between. I want to mix it up creatively.”
On co-star Justin Timberlake.
“He’s a perfectionist. I was really impressed. He has a great instinct, whether he’s on or off camera. I’ve never seen someone who had such success in another area of entertainment be so willing to work as hard as he does. He doesn’t rest on any of those laurels. He knows that performing at Madison Square Garden doesn’t necessarily mean you’re going to be a great actor in an action film.”
On breaking the ice with JT.
“The first scene we were going to shoot together was the goodbye scene, so I went to set a couple days before just to kind of pal around with Justin a little bit. I didn’t want to shake his hand and then start a very emotional goodbye scene between us. The bar scene was fun too because we ran off to a nearby shooting gallery on our break. He is a far superior shot than I am. I don’t think the producers were necessarily thrilled about that, but you gotta blow off some steam somehow!”
On his early acting ambitions.
“I started talking about it when I was literally three-years-old. It’s almost creepy. I have no idea how I even knew what the word ‘actor’ meant. My parents tried to dissuade me, but there was a local community theater doing auditions for a production of Fiddler on the Roof that we read about it in the paper. I auditioned and got the role. I was just a kid in the chorus, but that was the beginning.”
On his passion for live sitcoms.
“It’s theater, really. That’s how we approach it. Our goal is to make these 22-minute plays every week. If it wasn’t for that live audience, I wouldn’t be half as happy and creatively satisfied as I am. That’s really the pot of the gold at the end of every workweek. I can be in some foul mood, but I hear that audience come in and I think how lucky I am. I get to go out there and try to make a few hundred people laugh. That’ll make anybody’s day!”
On his love for Leonard.
“Initially, I loved playing his frustration with his life. In the last season, I’m really enjoying his growth and his maturing. It’s happening at a snail’s pace, but that’s fun to mine. We’re approaching our 100th episode, and I’m trying to wrap my head around that. It’s just crazy, but I love working. I’m always happiest when I’m working.”
On being a poster boy for brainiacs.
“It’s funny, I did not foresee that. These characters are so relatable apparently. I can’t tell you how often I hear, ‘My 12-year-old is just like your character,’ or ‘My great grandfather is just like your character.’ It doesn’t have any boundaries in age or geography. It really is very wide-reaching and that’s just a testament to the writers more than the performances.”
On his takeaway from his years on Roseanne.
“Just how much I learned from each of them. I started during their third season, so the cast bonding had already taken place, but it was really priceless to have those examples. Rose and John Goodman — you couldn’t have asked for a better college.”
The article is called “Geek Goddesses” and will be in the October issue of CBS Watch Magazine. It is an interview with Melissa Rauch (Bernedette) and Mayim Bialik (Amy). Here is a sample & the link to read the rest of the article.
As the theme song to TV’s No. 1 comedy goes, it all started with a big bang. And then in the third season, the writers decided to add a new breed of nerds to the group—this time, bringing in the ladies. The Big Bang Theory had already rocketed in the ratings when it moved to Thursday nights last fall. Around the same time, the sitcom introduced two brainy new characters, and in just a single season Bernadette Rostenkowski (Melissa Rauch) and Amy Farrah Fowler (Mayim Bialik) have become regular characters and integral parts of the Big Bangformula.
“It was wonderful adding Melissa and Mayim,” says Jim Parsons, who plays persnickety Ph.D. Sheldon Cooper. “They’re strong actors who fit perfectly into the tone of the show. Their characters have opened up new roads for full stories to be formed around them.”
For one, Penny (Kaley Cuoco) now has “a circle of girls she can hang out with, so it makes it easier for us to have new storylines,” says Big Bang executive producer Steven Molaro. “Our little world has grown in a great way, and we’re thrilled to have so many new options.”

- July 22nd: San Diego Comic Con 2011
On this season of “The Big Bang Theory,” we had the opportunity more than ever before to see Mayim Bialik get to know all of the cast as her character of scientist Amy. The former “Blossom” star does bring a different sort of energy to the cast — she is the only actor to actually be a scientist in real life, and she actually has some sort innate understanding about some of her material even while reading the scripts for the first time.
However, Mayim is also quick to dish out compliments when it comes to the people who work on this hit CBS show behind the scenes:
“I don’t think I’ve met a smarter group of people who hang out together, possibly ever, even in graduate school, than our writers and producers.”Mayim has yet to start filming this coming season, and there is one event that she is looking forward to first and that is her first-ever trip with the cast to Comic-Con in San Diego:“I’m a pretty quiet person. I think it’s going to be a lot of people. But I think it will be fun. I’m glad to be able to go with the cast. I’m friendly with the people that I work with, which is nice, so we get to do it together.”
Amtrak’s Pacific Surfliner makes the 128-mile journey from Los Angeles to San Diego in two hours and 45 minutes. Pulled by a mighty Electro-Motive diesel engine, the train heads south on tracks laid in 1888 by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. Fifty-one weeks a year, the train takes vacationers south to Sea World or north to Universal Studios. For one weekend in July, though, boarding the Pacific Surfliner is as close as you can come to climbing into the Hogwarts Express at Kings Cross Platform 9¾…

Canadian rockers the Barenaked Ladies have filmed a music video for “The History of Everything,” their theme song for CBS’ hit sitcom “The Big Bang Theory.”
Posted after the break, the video features the band sneaking onto the set of the show and performing an expanded version of the bouncy theme for the cast and crew. They even sit in Sheldon’s spot on the couch!
In an interview last fall, BNL frontman Ed Robertson shared with me the story of how show creators Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady approached him to pen the theme:
“They said, ‘Well, you’re the only one we’ve asked. We really want you to do this.’ And I said, ‘Well, that’s great because I can give you what you’re looking for if you can tell me what you want,’” he said. “So it was a great relationship right from the start.”
The extended version of “The History of Everything” has now become a popular part of BNL’s live shows.
“We played it one night just kind of on a lark, and people went nuts. It’s one of the hits in the set now,” he said with a laugh.
As a measure to promote both “The Big Bang Theory” and her role in the new movie “Hop” (which is currently dominating the box office), Kaley Cuoco appearing on Thursday’s episode of “Conan” to talk a little bit about anything and everything.
During the interview (which you can see in full to the below), Conan opened up the conversation by doing his whole “awkward-flirting” bit (which was reciprocated by Cuoco), and then the two of them ended up talking about “Jackass moments” largely due to the fact that Johnny Knoxville from the MTV franchise was also present as a guest. We didn’t really end up learning much about “Big Bang” during the interview, but we did at least find out that Kaley was in a jetski incident at one point with her co-star (and then-boyfriend) Johnny Galecki, and that she has nearly had a car accident driving behind Conan at least three times (as they both work on the same studio lot every day).
Mayim Bialik did an interview with “Poptimal” and i posted this below. Check the “Read More” for the q&a, since the interview contains some spoilers.
This morning I grabbed the chance to spend a few minutes on the phone with Mayim Bialik, who currently plays the role of Amy Farrah Fowler on CBS’s The Big Bang Theory. We spoke as her children chattered in the background, a warm reminder of balanced priorities.
Were you a fan of The Big Bang Theory before you took the role of Amy Farrah Fowler?
No, I’d actually never seen the show before I went in to audition. I’d heard I’d been mentioned during the earlier seasons, because of my degree in neuroscience, but I have 2 little kids so TV time is scarce. I actually thought it was some kind of game show. Johnny Galecki and I had the same agent as kids, so I talked with him about it. All I really knew was the character needed to be a “female version of Jim Parsons,” so I Googled him and Sheldon and went from there. I really love “Chuck’s (Lorre) sensibility” and the “simplicity of the show.” Their writers are so incredible and pay such attention to detail. I’ve spent so much time in the sitcom world, it’s kind of hard to bring something new, but they really do a nice job.
