Stuart Bloom Becomes the Unlikely Hero in New Big Bang Theory Spinoff
Okay, so this is actually happening— Stuart Bloom , the quirky, awkward, often-overlooked comic book store owner from The Big Bang Theory , is finally stepping into the spotlight in a brand-new spinoff titled Stuart Fails to Save the Universe . And let me just say—this is not the kind of series anyone expected, but it might just be the most surprising twist the Big Bang franchise has ever taken.
The new show has been picked up by HBO Max, and this time, it’s diving deep into the multiverse. Yes, you heard that right—multiverse. According to the official press release, Stuart accidentally breaks a high-tech device created by none other than Sheldon and Leonard. That device? It causes a multiversal catastrophe. So now, Stuart—yes, that Stuart—is somehow tasked with putting the universe back together. The irony is perfect, and honestly, it’s so on-brand for the nerdy, sci-fi-loving world Big Bang built over its 12-season run.
Kevin Sussman returns as Stuart, and he's not alone. Lauren Lapkus is back as his girlfriend Denise, Brian Posehn as the lovable geologist Bert, and John Ross Bowie reprises his role as the ever-sarcastic Barry Kripke. The team is hilariously mismatched, but that's part of the charm—this isn’t your typical save-the-world lineup.

Behind the scenes, Chuck Lorre, Bill Prady, and Zak Penn are helming the project. That’s a serious creative dream team, blending sitcom genius with sci-fi storytelling chops (Penn, after all, worked on The Avengers and Ready Player One ). Their goal? To mix smart, mythological science fiction with the kind of humor that Big Bang Theory fans love.
And if you’re wondering about Sheldon and Leonard—while Jim Parsons and Johnny Galecki haven’t been confirmed as part of the regular cast, the multiverse angle opens the door wide for cameos or alternate versions of these beloved characters. Imagine a world where Sheldon is... normal? Or where Penny is the physicist and Leonard runs a bar? It’s all possible.
Chuck Lorre mentioned he wanted to do something that would take him completely out of his comfort zone. And honestly, this is it. A sitcom-turned-sci-fi epic? It's like Rick and Morty meets The Big Bang Theory but through the lens of Stuart Bloom—and that’s either completely insane or just the kind of bold risk this universe needed.
The original Big Bang Theory ended in 2019, and since then we’ve seen Young Sheldon and Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage carry the torch. But Stuart Fails to Save the Universe seems poised to do something bigger, weirder, and potentially more exciting than anything that came before it.
So buckle up—because when Stuart Bloom is the one responsible for saving all of reality… you know things are going to go hilariously off the rails. And that’s exactly why I’ll be watching.
