12 years later, this episode, and this clip, does not get old. Makes me crack up every time. Leonard's reaction to "cousin Leopold" at 0:18 is priceless!
You gotta admit, Sheldon is a caring friend, he did this all for Leonard. There was nothing for him to gain us this. He even hired an actor just for his friend.
Funny thing is, the joke towards the end is that they "break character" when they talk about science. But honestly, I would totally buy that Sheldon had a cousin who (growing up surrounded by a military family) went to college for physics, but got lost in drugs halfway through-ending his college experience temporarily and continuing his downward spiral. And, as cousins both interested ins science, they constantly argue about what the cause of his propensity toward self-destructive addiction stems from. The last line, "Your parents made the right decision." would therefore be a particularly mean stab by Sheldon at his cousin's parental issues. Come on, he already tells Raj how his own culture works, would you be at all surprised he'd tell someone why they are an addict?
Honestly, I wanted "cousin Leo" to show up at Sheldon and Amy's wedding; all clean and sober, fully recovered from the "abuse" he suffered as "a child growing up alone in the Philippines"... 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My favourite episode. The lie just kept on escalating and escalating until it became clear that Sheldon would actually have to produce his imaginary cousin Leo. Still shrieked when it happened, though.... and DJ Qualls......perfect! God, I love this show.
Leo's statement shouldn't be "there was no double blind studies", the statement should have been "there was no randomized controlled trial". And then Sheldon's answer would have been justified "How can there be a RCT, who would be a control group?"
Penny: "After what you told me, I am not surprised!" ... Sheldon's omniscient look at Leonard! 😂😆 FYI: Where I'm from, Leo would actually be the short version of Leonard.
Well it was mentioned that he was a military child. The Philippines has a naval base in Subic Bay where most of the personnel are american troops who are stationed there.
Kripke actually turn to be a friend to Sheldon. He exposed his two rivals for the same Nobel Prize in Physics as completed fraud. One of them actually plarigized his Ph.D in disseration. So, technically the guy is not even a real physicist.
This is one of the best acting (by Leo) and even better re-acting (by Sheldon) I have ever seen..I mean just see when he says, DAMN YOU CHAPLIN HARRIGAN...
Sheldon worked on a lie to support Leonard for not going to Penny's singing thing (saying that they had to make an intervention for his cousin Leo). Of course he went too far and actually brought someone in to play that person.
To be fair, Sheldon probably made the right decision here. Penny has a drug addict brother (they say he was in rehab several times), she probably knew that a drug addict wouldn't go back to rehab based on what Sheldon told her, she even says she's not surprised. So this episode makes Sheldon out to be crazy, but he's actually quite clever and careful with how he makes this lie.
I just can’t stop looking at Sheldon’s reactions when “Leo” goes off script
Imagine waking up on a normal day seeing a stranger eating in your kitchen... "I am Sheldon's cousin Leo" lmao 🤣
"Your parents made the right decison." Lmao sheldon is a straight up savage

Aww, c'mon!!! 😂
It remains my favorite episode!
Which episode why I don't remember seeing these
This guy was simply brilliant! They should work him back into the script. Easy to do, as he's supposed to be a teaching assistant.
***** Okay. Research Assistant.
Die GuuglePlus' comment is still excellent, and a point well taken.
He was the other finalist to play Sheldon :)
really?
Melanie Corzo I was going to say he seems qualified to played Sheldon and I was right lol
Melanie Corzo Noooo wayyy???😮😮😮
You gotta admit, Sheldon is a caring friend, he did this all for Leonard. There was nothing for him to gain us this. He even hired an actor just for his friend.
Lmao Leo is hilarious and a really good actor
over acting.
@@MrReRaRo true, but Penny wouldn't know the difference.
@@MrReRaRo yeah that was the point
@@MrReRaRo And terrible at adlibbing.
@@athepaki7706 Turn your attention to the OP then.
I could never get over how skinny this guy's arms are.
Patricia Harold penny looks like hulk next to him
Running Forver well penny does lift and has natural thick body lol
Patricia Harold my arms are about the same
The actor actually has a medical condition.
Dude had non hodgkins lymphoma as a kid and the chemo treatment screwed up his puberty phase =p
All that effort and Leonard still had to suffer through Penny's singing.
sheldon behind leo disapproving his acting is the best thing of this entire scene

Wait, you're right, them breaking character would still fit in their act lol

😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Don't forget his genetic predesposition towards addiction, there have been research you see
@@ameennasar2583:
Not double-blind studies! 🤣
He wouldn't show up because he was not real😅
@@wbalkhair7369
(as Sheldon)
Oh Leonard! There's just no talking to you!🤣🤣🤣
4:31 “Your parents made the right decision.”
“I cannot work like this!” 🤣
My favourite episode. The lie just kept on escalating and escalating until it became clear that Sheldon would actually have to produce his imaginary cousin Leo. Still shrieked when it happened, though.... and DJ Qualls......perfect!
God, I love this show.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
"It was more of a double major actually... theatre and physics... you can guess which one my bourgeois parents pushed me towards."
Call Sam and Dean, Garth has been trapped in TV land by Gabriel...
lmao
😊😊
Have u watched the latest episode lol? He's back!!
YEEEESSSSS
Chloe Amber I’m surprised he didn’t have Mr fizzles!
Penny... You've Been Garthed!
lol! the whole episode has been Garthed!
That's also Rat from The Core (2003) so the whole episode got Purged!!!
Shut up megajsk123
YES YES YESSS!!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
DJ Qualls, the funniest performance by any guest actor ever in this great series. Genius, pure genius.
sheldon´s cousin character was extremely funny
he should appear again.
he match perfect in the group
I wish they'd had this guy on more. I loved him in "The New Guy"!
That movies great!!!
pay attention to Sheldon from 3:17 - 3:36 its so hilarious!!
mikattero He looks so pissed
3:07 I love Sheldon's reaction
OMG THIS GUY IS AMAZING. They should totally bring him back!!! And Sheldon's "Jut have fun with it"
His name is DJ Squalls and the reason he's so thin is that he's recovering from Hodgkins Lymphona cancer.
Qualls
He should have been scripted in more episodes
"I was abused in the Philippines-"
Oh.
rm enthusiast i dont get it
Pinoys got triggered
“...By a club footed Navy chaplain.”
Abuse in the Philippines= tsinelas, hanger, belt, palm of the ✋
@@bestjennaration 😆true
11 years later it is still so funny.
"Gin pickled tongue down his adolescent throat "
Gets me every single time....lmao
Is that GARTH??????
We've been garthed
deatheaternr24
What I just thought!
That's also Rat from The Core (2003) so Penny just got Purged!!!
he is Golem
yes
One of my favourite TBBT scenes ever.
Leo's statement shouldn't be "there was no double blind studies", the statement should have been "there was no randomized controlled trial". And then Sheldon's answer would have been justified "How can there be a RCT, who would be a control group?"
Man I loved this character more than Priya, he's hilarious and I think would have made a great contribution to this show.
Penny: "After what you told me, I am not surprised!"
... Sheldon's omniscient look at Leonard! 😂😆
FYI: Where I'm from, Leo would actually be the short version of Leonard.
"When I was 14, I was abused in the Philippines--"
oh sht.. that's rare.. WHYYY HEREEEE THOUGHH?
My guess is they chose a random country. Although if they had mentioned my country I probably would be asking the same question lol
Well it was mentioned that he was a military child. The Philippines has a naval base in Subic Bay where most of the personnel are american troops who are stationed there.
Damn you, Chaplain Horrigan!, gets me everytime... lol.
This is my second most favorite scene from the series.
The one were Lendard tries to catch Sheldon in the ball pit is my favorite episode. It's the one that hooked me on TBBT
And what is your favorite episode?
@@michaelscofield7503 my favourite scene is the one of Howard talking to Bernadette while he was at survival space camp
@@shimeih2287 bingo!! Mine too!!’ Lmaoooo!!!
@@scottgolden2766 the ball pit is my favorite episode... this is definitely my second
It would have been hilarious if he’d been at Sheldon’s wedding in character 🤣🤣🤣
Had Leo been given few more episodes, he would have surpassed all those 'science dudes'. 😂 And Penny. Well Penny would be with Leo. And not Leonard 🤣
After watching Man in the High Castle religiously for over a year it's weird to see DJ in this role
i love the "au contraire" that he said !!!
Leonard: Who are you?
Leo: I am Sheldon's cousin Leo
Leonard: oh god
Leo is hilarious, excellent actor
"Well That's Leo" xDDD
That was my favorite episode
That Sheldon cousin was in Breaking Bad
Oh my god, I never realized Garth was in the Big Bang Theory
Only once.
Whos garth
What show is he from? I recognize him but I have the worst memory.
smol bean supernatural?
@@kayleespeirs scrubs. Dr Goofy
one of the most underrated characters on the show, wish we couldve seen him more
The way he raised his head when penny spoke to him
i wish they had kept him as an occasional guest, like stuart or kripky. i love him.
I love how they start argueing infront of penny
Leonard still got screwed lol
Honestly; this is my ultimate Favorite episode of TBBT. That guy can act xD Wish he comes back as a recurring cast
The guy's such a great actor.
I love the way he tells his story to them.
Sheldon’s 3:07 is unbelievable, best face ever!
I liked how Sheldon was looking in the background when 'Leopold' was talking about the Navy chaplain.
We like Pizza. Joey likes pizza. Now get out and wait in the hall
This is my favourite episode 😂
That guy was amazing 😂😂
This was one of the best episodes hahah
At first I thought he looked familiar then remembered he was on criminal minds
Legend has it that Leonard never told a lie again
You could say that Sheldon has been...............FIZZLED!
Cousin Leo and Barry Kripke are my favs of this show.
Kripke actually turn to be a friend to Sheldon. He exposed his two rivals for the same Nobel Prize in Physics as completed fraud. One of them actually plarigized his Ph.D in disseration. So, technically the guy is not even a real physicist.
@@bermanmo6237 ya in the sense that the enemy of my enemy is my friend sort of way. It was more he hated those two more than he hated Sheldon
One of the best episodes!
see the eyes when leo is explaning the philppiness story
I agree! He's funny as hell! LOL!
This is one of the best acting (by Leo) and even better re-acting (by Sheldon) I have ever seen..I mean just see when he says,
DAMN YOU CHAPLIN HARRIGAN...
2:33 This had me dying💀
Oh, come on! Penny's dealt with meth-heads back home. She's got this! LOL 👍😽
This episode was the first time I realised how effed up Sheldon's cerebrum is.
Lol , D.J. Qualls is funny as hell
Sheldon worked on a lie to support Leonard for not going to Penny's singing thing (saying that they had to make an intervention for his cousin Leo). Of course he went too far and actually brought someone in to play that person.
Sheldons cousin Leo story is funny
“Have fun with it!” I learned someone was picking a minor at MIT and immediately thought of this. Brilliant!
This guy appeared in breaking bad as an undecover cop
Garth what are you doing there? Garth you're in the wrong show.
GARTH!! haha. Anyway he's so adorable haha Sheldon's cousin Leo should come back for more episodes.
This is such a great moment. I rewatch this clip often!
A complex lies that makes you want to tell the truth instead 😂😂
Great ep! very funny
To be far, dealing with Sheldon is like dealing with a pissy Dean.
KatieVanHelsing 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 oh my gosh TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU HAVE BEEN GARTHED!!!!!!!!!!!!
DJ NCniK, break out the SOCK PUPPET
Garth from Supernatural!!!
I think he's kinda cute...actually all of them are pretty adorable.
they should add "cousin leo" more often xD
one of the best episodes.
Shouldve ended by shouting out: "You've Been Garth'ed!!" XD
That's Ballz
omg it's Garth from supernatural!!!
Garth Fitzgerald IV.
Party on, man. Party on.
He is Not Garth, he's..............."The New Guy" on this TV show.
The first time I saw this episode, I had to pause it at 0:05 of how hard I was laughing. I think I even teared.
You have officially been Garthed!
It's Citizen Z before the apocalypse!
DJ Qualls needs to be a regular on this show!
get your ass back in supernatural garth :'(
GARTH!! :D I knew it. Sheldon is possessed. :D
Neenee Bee oh my gosh yes!!!!!
To be fair, Sheldon probably made the right decision here. Penny has a drug addict brother (they say he was in rehab several times), she probably knew that a drug addict wouldn't go back to rehab based on what Sheldon told her, she even says she's not surprised. So this episode makes Sheldon out to be crazy, but he's actually quite clever and careful with how he makes this lie.
Leo is amazing!
And that's how Cousin Leo became a werewolf on Supernatural.
Ya he needs to that way he could eat something
