A BIG BANG BEGINNERS GUIDE

GETTING STARTED ON THE THEORY

CHARACTERS
SHELDON COOPER (right, above) is an extremely intelligent physicist with OCD. He is fairly asexual until he meets Amy Farrah Fowler, his girlfriend of two seasons. His heroes are Spock and Steven Hawking. LEONARD HOFFSTADTER (right, below) is the most normal and relatable character on the show. He lives with Sheldon and has an on-off relationship with PENNY is the girl across the hall from Sheldon and Leonard. She is a waitress and an aspiring actress. HOWARD WOLOWITZ is an engineer, and before he was married to Bernadette, he lived with his over-protective, stereotypically Jewish mother, who is never seen but always heard shouting down the stairs or through the phone. At the end of season 5, Howard went to space to install a space toilet he designed. RAJ KOOTRAPALI is an Indian astrophysicist, who has been best friends with Howard for several years. He has selective mutism, and is unable to speak to women unless he is drunk, providing some problems for him in his romantic life. His possible homosexuality has been addressed, but when he slept with Penny in season 4, this idea was extinguished. AMY FARRAH-FOWLER is very similar to Sheldon. She is a microbiologist, and plays the harp. She has a semi-lesbian crush on Penny, although she is desperate to sleep with Sheldon. BERNADETTE is a waitress in Pennys restaurant, hates kids and is married to Howard.

Sheldons habits
Sheldon had a recognizable knock, which his OCD requires him to do. He had a spot on the couch, where nobody can sit. When he is sick, he asks Penny to sing him Soft Kitty like his mother did. When he needs to resolve conflict with someone else, he insists on a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock. When he jokes, he says BAZINGA!
