The D-Characters from The Big Bang Theory are getting their own show, and it is nothing like the one that it spun off of.
Comic book store owner Stuart Bloom (Kevin Sussman) is tasked with restoring reality after he breaks a device built by Sheldon and Leonard, accidentally bringing about a multiverse Armageddon. Stuart is aided in this quest by his girlfriend Denise (Lauren Lapkus), geologist friend Bert (Brian Posehn), and quantum physicist/all-around pain in the ass Barry Kripke (John Ross Bowie). Along the way, they meet alternate-universe versions of characters we’ve come to know and love from “The Big Bang Theory.” As the title implies, things don’t go well.
This might the best spinoff since The Jeffersons. We shall find out on July 23rd when it premieres on HBO Max.
When I heard about Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, I thought it was going to live up to its name and be a big failure. However, after watching the trailer, I think it is going to pass with flying colors.
Even though it is part of The Big Bang Theory’s universe, it is on a completely different timeline. One full of adventure and fun that only a comic book creator could create. And that is something co-creator Zak Penn knows because he wrote several Marvel movies, including The Avengers.

SFTSTU starts streaming on HBO Max on July 23rd. Are you going to be watching?
CBS picked up ten of their shows for next season today, but Watson and DMZ were not two of them.
What did they pick up? Tracker, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, Matlock, Elsbeth, Fire Country, NCIS, NCIS: Origins, NCIS: Sydney, Survivor, and The Amazing Race. They join the series that were already picked up for the 2026=2027 season: Boston Blue, Sheriff Country, FBI, Ghosts, and two new series, Cupertino and Einstein.
CBS also had not made a decision on the upcoming scripted originals, CIA and Marshalls, and Hollywood Squares and The Road.
With all of that, there is not a lot of room for anything else, like a potential Tracker or Ghosts spinoff.
In 2019, The Big Bang Theory ended its 12-year run, and fans have been wanting more ever since.
Today, HBO Max announced that they picked up the spinoff, Stuart Fails to Save the Earth to series.

Chuck Lorre, executive producer, said, “I wanted to do something radical that would take me out of my comfort zone. Something the characters on ‘The Big Bang Theory,’ would have loved, hated, and argued about.”
I can’t wait to see what happens when Chuck Lorre gets out of his comfort zone because we know how funny he is when he works within it.
When Zoe Perry was a little girl, she hung out on the set of Roseanne with her mom, Laurie Metcalf. In fact, she played the younger version of Jackie on two episodes.
