Discuss The Big Bang Theory

Now that the show is (allegedly ) over, I'm sure the cast is looking at their last paychecks and thinking "a million dollars a show...hmmm...I'm thinking SPIN-OFF!"

So what's your idea for a Big Bang spin off? Here are some starters:

The Cooper Family A shameless rip off of the Addams Family. Sheldon and Amy are crazy scientists performing wacky experiments much to the confusion of their neighbors.

Big Improvements The gang all move into the same cul-de-sac neighborhood where they use their scientific expertise to solve household problems. (Think laser guided weapons grade hedge trimmers.)

The Stuart Chronicles Stuart becomes a comic book creator. The beginning of the show has him at a work table. It fades into a comic book story with Sheldon, Leonard and the rest as less than competent comic book superheroes along the lines of The Tick.

Well that makes sense that Kirk in our universe considered them unknown.

Now that I'm thinking about "Arena"; whatever happened to all of those super-species that Kirk kept running into? (The Metronomes the Malcontents I forget their names) All Picard ever ran into was Q.

I don't know. All the spin offs have their own alien species that the different star ships run into but the others don't. Too many if you ask me. Besides they are all pretty much the same, species with warp drive and similar technology yet seem to act as if they were some medieval kingdom. As for super species, Wesley ran into the Traveler, and the other shows had the occasional super alien they dealt for an episode or too.

There was also the Douwd in TNG, who apparently could have totally eliminated the Borg threat among others, with just a thought.

And of course that one chick who it turned out was really Q. She never helped against the Borg or the Dominion either.

There also were the beings who got the Voyager stuck in the Gamma Quadrant. In TOS there was that space baby who like the Wizard of Oz pretended to be a fearsome alien until he invited Kirk over for some space wine. I don't remember all the names. Oh and Charlie X and his parents. And the Greek Gods. Come to think of it there was no super being that Kirk couldn't get the best of.

Kirk: "Hey so like we're really nice. let us go OK? Space God: "OK"

Kirk: We're not going to play with you any more." Space God: "OK"

Kirk: "Hey here come your parents/people who made you a god." Space God: "Oh crap."

Did I miss any?

Kirk: Excuse me alien computer, force, entity etc. You might have conned the local inhabitants of this primitive world into worshipping you and doing your bidding but I am a Star Fleet captain and I don't like it. Besides they are some good looking women here. Your powers are no match for our phasers and photon torpedoes not to mention my powerful masculinity. Okay then your time is up.

Alien super computer, entity, force: Oh crap.

Alien super computer, entity, force: But the person who originally made me was really nice.

Next up:

Kirk: "It's too bad we had to destroy this civilization, but they were annoying."

Which episode?

Others Possible Spin Offs frm The Big Bang

                                                Stuart Bloom or,Raj Koothrappali    



The Big Bang Theory Could have many spin offs ,Those of Leonard Hofstadter,Howard Wolowitz,Raj Koothrappali
could all go into teaching full time. all of them except Penny have been to academia.

The one who's still kind of successful in an adjacent field to their choosing is Stuart Bloom,talented artist/
business man Abnormal yet more normal than the uber geek's club. One could go into Stuarts family his brother
looked after the shop in his absence one time I think.

Stuart has his own world(not that the others couldn't) and an entire industry of(could be  shown)figurine makers,merchandisers,comic book makers, behind the scenes at comic con,

***comic book tales of being put on hold on the phone with comic book suppliers for 10+ hrs.

These are the the tales of Stuart Bloom, kind of like Andy French but more successful monetarily or, 
 a nicer, humbler,less nerdy, approachable Jeff Albertson. 

***The show could share a flash back scene to the time when " grown Sheldon"
first entered the comic book store from The Young Sheldon Show
when he arrives in Pasadena from Texas post Harvard university graduate.

Howard could sell Stuart the Lisa 3k to use in a covered up display.
Stuart 'could try to teach' others how to draw.
Something could screw up at a manufacturing company(acted on show) and, bloom has said item at his store.

****The writers could kind of have some subversive comment on a situation, like Vonda Shepard's 
tunes in Ally Mc Beal . 

They could have voice over actors from time to time play a character they play in the cartoons they are from - with a running gag interweave'd into the plot.

Nancy Cartwright as a purple haired punk playing pranks on 
people in the  comic store(cause she's sitting down on the couch getting bored waiting for some 

one). Its not known that it might be Bart Simpson until she utters:"Don't have a cow man!" in response to being discovered; or have Louise Belcher plotting something but - they're not main characters they're cameos.

***they may fuse the latest games into the show's intros

Raj Koothrappali escape to Wild L.a.(Amerindia)

I don't have as much to say about Raj as Bloom in part because the particle physics world is close to the show that's ended.

Raj could work at Fermi Lab which would echo the big bang theory's geekiness and may not transform him I.E. picking up where the big bang left off literally.

Raj however has changed and works in an observatory where other New Types" of stories can start he had an apartment, world away from the others("but now is in a house of his own").

perhaps new stories with Raj could be 
balanced with his chaotic side and off set by his morphing jack of all trades side even, accidentally

could be utilized. He has room to grow.

****Raj's character was originally to be cast as American Indian perhaps, Raj could meet an urban Amerind girl and go through different story plots together. kunyal could add some stuff that's happened in his real life marriage to the story and - a little life off the res along with some of Raj's east Indian family chiming in.

He may visit Artesia's little India once in awhile.

Raj may live in wild L.a., The Santa Monica Mountains where he can get away and view nature and the stars then, commute to the observatory.

according to TMDB, someone called tjd posted here at 11:45pm on the 23rd but it still isn't showing up.

tjd, do you still have your post in "edit" or something?

oh there it is, finally, after I post mine!
