After a long and successful run, The Big Bang Theory is airing its final episode. For twelve years, we’ve watched Sheldon and the gang live their lives and they’ve entertained us with their antics. TBBT is a television show and the characters are stereotypes that capture society's most outlandish perceptions of scientists. It’s probably true that scientists are more likely to relish some of the geekier facets of popular culture than the average person. When the final episode airs I’ll be on the couch watching -- just like my non-scientist friends.
