Big Smart Bang Chick

delphipsmithI'm not sure I've ranted about my love for The Big Bang Theory in this venue, so let me take a moment to say how very cool I think this show is and how much I love it. (In so very many ways, I am Dr. Sheldon Cooper.) That none of the jokes are bathroom humor (the occasional mention of Leonard's lactose intolerance aside) would alone elevate it above 90% of the sitcoms out there. Add to that the fact that the science is accurate, that it makes geeks look fun and cool, that (yes!) there are smart science-y CHICKS on it, and that the discussion topics and jokes (Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, Battlestar Galactica, arcade games, etc.) are terrifyingly similar to those that I and my nerd friends have always loved, and you have a recipe for fabulous that has rarely been equaled. And the minute the local pub dumps trivia night for counter-factual night, I am SO there.
But today I found out something that elevates it to the truly amazing. Mayim Bialik, she of Blossom, who plays Dr. Sheldon Cooper's girl-slash-friend Amy Farrah Fowler, actually really truly in real life has a PhD in neuroscience.
Wow.
How freaking cool is that???
