The Big Bang Theory created by Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady premiered on CBS on September 24, 2007, and concluded on May 16, 2019, having broadcast 279 episodes over 12 seasons.
The show originally centered on five characters living in Pasadena, California: Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons), both physicists at Caltech, who share an apartment; Penny (Kaley Cuoco), a waitress and aspiring actress who lives across the hall; and Leonard and Sheldon's similarly geeky and socially awkward friends and co-workers, aerospace engineer Howard Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) and astrophysicist Raj Koothrappali (Kunal Nayyar). Over time, supporting characters were promoted to starring roles, including neuroscientist Amy Farrah Fowler (Mayim Bialik), microbiologist Bernadette Rostenkowski (Melissa Rauch), and comic book store owner Stuart Bloom (Kevin Sussman).
The show was filmed in front of a live audience and produced by Warner Bros. Television and Chuck Lorre Productions. It ultimately reached the no. 1 spot in its eleventh season. It was nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series from 2011 to 2014 and won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series four times for Parsons. In total, it won seven Emmy Awards from 46 nominations. Parsons also won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Television Co - Розваги
And then her daughter played the same character in Young Sheldon and she nailed it.
Damn no wonder I always thought damn she looks exactly the same
@@gilly123_9 funny thing is, she had to audition for the part.
😊@@gilly123_9
@@rwwilson21 Of course she had to. She couldn’t be able to play a role just because her mother did, because it’s not to be taken for granted that she’d have played it well too.
Look at Brandon Lee. His only remarkable performance was from a movie which wasn’t about Kung Fu
thats why they have the same talking manners eeven they do sound thee same
It's weird, they could have made the character insufferable, or really annoying, or played her for laughs, but they wrote her sympathetically, which is rare for people of faith in sitcoms. She was warm, and kind and sympathetic. Even when you laughed at some of her beliefs, it was still very genuine and you really enjoyed her as a person and not just as a foil for Sheldon.
Well she was kinda terrible and Young Sheldon but she seemed to mellow down
Let's be fair, I love the character but she comes off as sweet and sympathetic a large part because Sheldon is the golden child of the family. She's said outright she considers her other children "dumber than soup" and we saw in this clip she literally calls her son's girlfriend a whore.
Its the opposite effect of why we hate Beverly, because Leonard is the black sheep in her eyes and she treats him as such.
Hollywood hates Christians. Should be no surprise they portray them incorrectly.
It’s also because she’s a damn good actress
And still a texas woman, a little Christian crazy and racist
Sheldon's mom going against Leonard's mom is gold.
Mary showed Beverly how she was able to be a better well blessed mother than Beverly and her cold narcissistic diagnostic analysis.
@@agentzurg3592Exactly. Mary has heart, and that alone makes her a better mother than Beverly has ever or will ever be
@@adamzabielski3685Beverly can't even be considered a mom, she admits treating Leonard like a social experiment and being absent most of his life. The audience ignores that because it's a sitcom, of course, as they should.
Mary had her flaws but she was both a good mother and a good Christian. The most scandalous thing she did was Baptize CeCe without Georgie’s and Mandy’s permission (which is bad, but at least she was also very accepting of Sheldon & it seems she became more accepting of other faiths later) Beverly was a bad mother and a bad psychologist.
Put her in her place!
Mary deserves credit for the Nobel Prize. She gave the idea to Sheldon regarding perfection through imperfection.
Ehhh... watch young sheldon before you say that... 😏
8:17 Mary: Sometimes the imperfect stuff makes things perfect.
Then Sheldon gets the idea of an asymetrical universe (or whatever) that gave the newlyweds a Nobel Prize.
So if without Mary's wisdom, no Nobel Prize...
@@Deverik1981I think it was said that the two sort of exist in separate timelines or something. Mary in TBBT is excellent, but Mary in young Sheldon is awful
@@juanferrer5924 how is she awful I don't understand.
@@jeanettewee8805 in young Sheldon you can see that her coddling and general attitude toward raising Sheldon HEAVILY contributed to the way he is as an adult. It was only thanks to his dad that Sheldon got evened out even a little
“Dumbass daddy” - George was a good father. He may had lapses but he always means well. God bless his soul 😊
Retconned
You can have a good husband who is a good father and still think he's a dumbass sometimes. Especially when you're pregnant with twins and have a toddler. We have no context for what happened right before Mary was driving and caused this thought. She's in no way saying he was always 24/7 a dumbass.
It means that because of George's death, Mary became a lowkey harder person than she was !!!
She and Sheldon hated him for leaving them. A sentiment I understand.
It's a scripted TV comedy non of these people are real just enjoy and have a laugh
I love the fact that they lowkey made her turn out like Meemaw
7:49 Mary is right. George Senior would definitely be proud of his son.
Scene makes me sniffle every single time.
"more than 1 woman were interested in you, I might've prayed too hard". Lmao 🤣🤣🤣
She did Remember that obsessed redhead that worked for him 😂😂😂
I love the way she, said, "and that is your opinion." At 1:15
7:30
But he is right and she is wrong she is brainwashed sheep
Mayim Bialek was perfectly cast as Amy Farrah Fowler. She made that character go from robotic and creepy to a semi normal woman. I loved her character.
in real life she has a phd which is cool not just an actor which made her character so real
Shes a neuroscientist I think in real life
She was the female Sheldon when she first came on
Too much change for this character…
@@anninaaAmy was a decent addition. I agree, her character changed too much.
The casting choice to have the actor for Mary's daughter as Mary in Young sheldon was actual genius. They look exactly alike
That's because it's her daughter. Her daughter plays her character in young sheldon
@@thebyrdcage8619they just said that
@@thebyrdcage8619 congratulations u just replied to someone by saying the exact same thing
Fun fact: Zoe actually had to audition for this
To me she looks like her father Jeff Perry aka Meredith Grey’s father
Mary Cooper...a legend,one and only like her son😊😊😊
And she's gorgeous
@@rahamanroberson4333 😉😉😉😉😉
As a Christian myself, Mary’s character is pretty freaking hilariously accurate 😂
I'm a Christian as well. I totally agree.
She's very devoted to her faith for sure!
Dude agree😂❤
@@RedHeadThriller10😢
I’m Catholic, which she would have a problem with, even though Catholics are Christian.
I know they are mother and daughter but god its like they were just one person. The demeanor and the voice. Im glad she got to continue her mother role
And to think she had to actually audition for the role
tbh i think Old Mary is exactly like Young Sheldon's Meemaw. they even look alike, YS Mary acted nothing like this
@@Kai88988 true but just based on looks I feel Zoe looks similar to Connie
I love Mary simply for the fact that she can go up against Sheldon and Beverly Hofstadter without breaking a sweat.
Sheldon with the sex talk is probably god punishing her lol
It's *God* with a capital G. If you are talking about multiple gods, then it's lowercase "g"
@@Rumkitty2000 Who cares? It's not like he's real anyway
@@LoukablyatIf you don’t believe in God, then at least care about proper grammar.
@@Dutch_Vander_Linde_ care to elaborate ?
@@Loukablyat Its grammatically incorrect to write or type God without capitalization as all proper nouns such as names require capitalization.
7:40 hits different now :(
I love Mary Cooper so much. Because in my opinion, she’s probably the most positive representation I’ve seen of a religious mother. Because she actually believes what she preaches. She believes and respects her son, even if she doesn’t always agree with it. She never stops her kids and she always does everything she can to help them. I have no doubt she had a hard hard times, especially after George died. But she is a wonderful mother and one, but I think a lot of people would be proud to have. What a great character. ❤
OMG Sheldon's Mom is the key of solving the equation😂👍
I have from the first been in awe of how much depth and warmth and nuance Laurie Metcalf brought to this character, initially without a lot of help from the writing. (And I'm squarely in the demographic that would have been perfectly satisfied snickering at a Mary Cooper somebody just phoned in.) Metcalf not only turned Mary into an actual PERSON, she also managed to make the idea that she and Sheldon could be part of the same family so believable, you could build a whole 'nother show about it.
There IS a whole 'nother show about it . Its called Young Sheldon
The level of favoritism that Mary shows towards Sheldon is >>>>>, made Georgie sound like a loser but he’s a hardworking and successful businessman.
Watching young sheldon you REALLY see the favoritsm.
yes but i actually love how she calls all of them her ‘baby’ and honey despite them being in high school (even george.)
@@adobokkeumbapperhaps that is after her husband died. She took no interest in anyone else but Sheldon. The degree of favoritism displayed as well as her hypocrisy made her character so cringe early on in young Sheldon. It's no wonder he turned out as he did. And gives insight on Georgie's road to accomplishment in sales.
To be fair we didn't see Georgie until season 12. we don't know how many years it took for him to be as successful as he is now and we don't know how he was doing as an adult when the events of the Big Bang Theory started.
@@Deverik1981 it's not only favoritism. Depise being a Atheist Sheldon was ironically her only child who was kinda having a Christian life in sort of way, I mean he barely drink, he did not had babies outside marriage, he had a decent job and she thought that he always will be alone and that makes her sad, but she always understood that how the world works. In the other hand, she thought Georgie and Missy would have a normal life, instead Georgie get 3 divorces and is dating no so good ladies, Missy get pregnated and divorce. In her criticism against Georgie she didn't say he was not a good man or hardworking, but she criticized his' partners choices (it appears after he and Mandy finally separate, Georgie had relationships with women who are not so kind as Mandy was) and that he was dumb (and yes he was dumb, but he has street smarts, but I guess you get tired of speaking with someone with low general culture, and for what I'm seeing in YS, she actually aprecciate education, of course always putting her Christian values first).
Come back please, the big bang theory 😭 I miss you 😭
It’s on hbo max
@@sheskhi8727 New seasons ! ! !
Wel.... you will always have Young Sheldon 😘😘😶🌫😶🌫
I think Amy is on jeopardy
I think Amy is on jeopardy
Damn Mary Cooper is a baddie
I've always been amazed by how Mary in TBBT and Mary in Young Sheldon looked similar, and then I discovered they're mother and daughter 😊
3:26 Plot hole: In Young Sheldon, Meemaw says to Missy that Mary turned to God and church when Missy almost died at her (and Sheldon’s) birth. So how can she pray to God on the way to give birth?
I think Meemaw made it up
Meemaw definitely made it up . Im pretty sure Mary became religious after she got pregnant with Georgie. Cuz young Sheldon talked about how she was a wild child before she had Georgie and the twins.
@@karleighrock593 Wait, did Missy almost died at birth? Is that true or made up?
Leonard to gives the perfect reaction whenever Sheldon or amy talk about the weirdest of things 😂
00:13 🤣🤣🤣
"Recently?"
"Long enough!"
👍
Laurie Metcalf..... anything she touches is always great. In interviews she is very interesting. ❤
“Oh Dear Lord!”
“ Don’t look to him.. He’s mad at you right now!”
I thought I saw a scene of Mary Cooper in either Leonard's and Sheldon's apartment or in Leonard's and Penny's Apartment with the entire crew of friends, minus Sheldon and Amy, for some reason. The guys and girls were discussing something exciting in the scientific community while Mary and Penny were in the kitchen preparing to leave. Mary heard them and gave an epic response that dumbfounded the gathering. Mary then replied that someone had to proofread all of Sheldon's earlier work, and she had to make corrections because some of what he wrote would have gotten him laughed at. She then continued that she learned a thing or two from those days, and then she and Penny left the apartment. My memory is imperfect, but a lack of that scene makes me wonder if I had dreamed it.
It's a wonderful scene, real or not.
@@Anne--Marie, Thank you.
I think that I remember it. Just vaguely though...
You did not dream it.
@@crocusconnections8202, Can you please tell me which episode it came in? I've been looking for it and always seem to miss it.
I can’t picture better actresses to portray Sheldon and Leonard’s Moms. Lori Metcalf is so good in everything she does.
Mary Cooper was one hell of a woman.
One more thing the i couldn't imagine any other casts than the ones they had they nailed it 1000%
Mary Cooper was the only one that could put Sheldon in his place.
Not true. Leslie Winkle never put up with his crap.
@@Surfer041 oh yeah, I forgot about that.
@@Surfer041Sorry i remember when Sheldon finally wins on Leslie winkle. He put her down after the break up of her and leonard LOL
Don’t forget Priya until the end of the episode
I love the fact that Zoe Perry is the real-life daughter of Laurie Metcalf, both of whom played Sheldon's mother.
I appreciate that there was no nepotism involved and she actually auditioned and won the part by her own acting ability.
I didn't know that they were mother and daughter until I began to watch Young Sheldon and I was saying to myself: "There's no way these women are not related. They look so much alike!" And then I googled them and mystery solved. They are great playing that role!
@@jane_saw_a_lotZoe does resemble her mother
@@MarvelFan1995 - If you really want to see the resemblance, take a good look at Aunt Jackie on Roseanne...back when Laurie was younger..
Me too!
She should have taken him to the follow-up in Houston
it hits different after watching young sheldon.
Her daughter who plays Mary in young Sheldon also sounds the exact same 😂
Sorry to do this, because the video is amazing, and the creators worked really hard on it, but some instances had wrong season numbers. For example, the instance where Alfred and Mary left the restaurant together, the video showed Season 9, Episode 1, when it is a part of Season 10. Similarly, when Mary was explaining to Beverly how she knew Sheldon was going to be smart, it showed Season 7, when it is a part of Season 8.
every episode where Mary was in was great.. So happy that she eventually became a major character in Young Sheldon.. and played by mothr and daughter XD
I grew up watching Laurie Metcalfe as Jackie in Rosanne. Loved her in that, so when I saw her as Mary Cooper in BBT, I was thrilled. She's an absolutely terrific actress and deserves so much more recognition for her work. And seeing her go against Christine Baranski is absolutely gold!
7:11 this was a good one
I watch BBT every night reruns are still on 5 days a week 2 episodes from 7-8 eastern time an still never gets old I honestly would be devastated if they took it off the air it brings me smiles on 💩 days sad they didn't continue or restart the show but reruns will do
Mary comes across as a more mellow Mary when she wasn’t young Sheldon. Amazingly, she reminds me a little of the mother of Mary in the young Sheldon. It is genius and well played.
Mary in Young Sheldon is her daughter hahaha
This woman is nothing like Mary on Young Sheldon…
I definitely see her resembling Connie as well!
I’ve been very ill & staying with my brother. We watch this show every night & it’s great.
I’m not this biggest on sit-coms, but the acting, casting & writing on this show were incredible.
-Older Mary is a rebel 😭
Somehow I just know if Leonard's mom and Ms. Cooper fought, poor Leonard's mom would be putting that neuroscience degree toward trying to reverse the massive amounts of brain damage the wrath of Ms. Cooper would inflict upon her.
she reminds me so much of MeeMaw in young sheldon, even sounds like her. i see more of a resemblance between her and Meemaw then her own daughter who played her
Just had the same thought! It’s like she came cynical after losing ___ and now s like her mother. I’m sure they cast meemaws actor with that in mind
Your plus one.. absolutely brilliant!
Mary in young Sheldon was a bit of a weak and fake religious nut but in tBBT her faith seems much more convincing ans she is much more assured. Her faith is represented with humour but sympathetically and respectfully. I really liked the senior version Mary Cooper. Nobody, not even Leonard's mother can put her down!
I think I may have had a brush with that specialist in Houston.....my teachers convinced my parents I needed to visit one of ADD hospitals back in the 80's.
She is a blessing to be sooooooooooooooooooo PATIENT with someone like Sheldon, God bless people like her
Is it just me but in young Sheldon, they made George’s character completely different. I mean there is a few similarities but it’s kinda like weird that Mary was kind of talking trash about her dead husband. In my opinion it was just kind of off.
Because shes mad he left them. That happeneds to everyone. They all get angry in grief
3:55 Maybe you can knock some sense into yourself😂
He's your plus one lmao
I always crack up at “we’re ignoring the fins? Ok.”
You'll get there ya just gotta put some zing on it!!!😂😂😂😂😂
I love Mary. I think the producers tried to portray her as a religious zealot. And they failed miserably.
No they didn't fail,it was incredibly accurate
@@chrisbrown456 They did fail. Mary came off as a real Christian.
@@chrisbrown456yes. Incredibly accurate.
That's because of the actress playing her, Laurie is amazing
God always wins, no matter how the world tries to mock Christians.
0:10 That guy does real fast😂😮
Un Joya esa serie 😂😂😂😂
I still wish we could see Jim Parson's Sheldon and the Mary Cooper from Young Sheldon at the same time in a scene
7:45 is me about my brother and grandparents and uncle
This woman also played as one of the killers in Scream 2. Brilliant actress.
I would like seevthat doctors report We Had Him Tested(I want the evaluation)
Sheldon's kryptonite. Yes, Ma'am. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Put some zing on it😂😂😂♥️♥️♥️
I know YS has retconned some stuff from TBBT, but older Mary seems more likely to hold Sheldon accountable compared to younger Mary. It’s possible that George Sr’s death and generally growing older gave her some perspective on how she raised Sheldon, and she’s trying to make amends.
I can see that as a possibility for Mary.
I cried in the last scene
Mary and Amy deffending each other against Sheldon is gold. I love the scene so much
4:24 I didn’t know Judd Hirsch was in “Big Bang Theory” until now
I hope that, one day, we’ll see some BBT TV movies in the future🙂
I think the little boy Sheldon is adorable. I hate to see him grow up.
The way she says "Are we gonna be okay?" at 04:58 is so incredibly similar to Zoe Perry's tone in _Young Sheldon_ . And I know Metcalf and Perry are related, but still.
This is where i learned how to use our body but keep in mind the purpose before anything else. well its either the Lord or Mary Cooper did gave me that lesson.
“No, don’t look to Him, He’s mad at you right now” 😂😂😂
Mary Copper in YS is defo her Mothers Daughter,
That blew my mind when I found out it was Laurie Metcalf's daughter actually playing the role of the young Mary Cooper!
I loved this Mary sheldon pairing.
I realized both of their voices sound similar
Who thinks Mary on big bang theory and Mary on young Sheldon don’t match ? I also think the same thing with his mee - maw
Cause they are mother-daughter
🙋🏻♀️
I think after George died Mary changed. Still religious but not as cuckoo.
I think the opposite
@@Anne--MarieMe too!
Sheldon Cooper is the NHL hockey coach of Tampa Bay lightning
8:02 Probably the only woman he would hug if not for Penny and Amy.
Laurie Metcalf AKA Mary Cooper AKA Sheldon's mom was excellent.
I love Laurie Metcalf
Mary Cooper is my favorite Big Bang character 😊
Good old days ❤
The Young Sheldon mom did not match up with this one... I can't see the new version talking smack about George dying or jokes about it.
I came back to this because of the exact same reason, but if you watch the last few episodes of young sheldon she says that she is mad at him
Can't imagine if he lost his mom...he would be so broken and trying to figure out how a time machine works
Twasn't the mommy observation but maternal combustion!!
Why leonard looks like homelander 💀
What does that even mean? Are you I u referring to the actor?
Glow in the Dark Goldfish that's fuckin dope
"Is Dr Gablehauser going to be my new daddy?" 😂😂😂
My husband is so much like Sheldon. I keep showing him the similarities. This is one of them where Sheldon loves his mother but can’t stand her arguments. But my MIL is not a relationship maker like Mary. She’s more of a breaker.
run
The big bang theory always and forever 😊🤩👍❤
I might have prayed a little too hard 😂
Jer look said Go away.
Well this hits differently after George died
I loved how Penny was equally intimidated by both Beverly and Mary, and wish they had included that in this clip.
Freaking Awesome👍👍
Sheldon’s mom always knew how to lovingly put him in his place.
What a fantastic mother.
