Aside from being love interests to Howard and Sheldon, respectively, the girls also allowed Kaley Cuoco’s Penny to have her own friend group in CBS' sitcom.
Bialik’s guest appearance inNight Courtseason 3 was confirmed ahead of the episode, “Mayim Worst Enemy.” Marking the first time that they share the screen together sinceThe Big Bang Theoryendedin 2019, there was a lot of excitement building up to the special episode — both for fans ofNight Courtand the nerd-centric sitcom. In the outing,Bialik plays herself — Mayim Bialik, as she is tried in Abby Stone’s court for a ridiculous restaurant snafu. Rauch’s character gushes over the actor, as she is a big fan of Blossom, just like in real life.

Creepy Amy Acted The Same Way With Penny In Earlier The Big Bang Theory Seasons
Amy Really Wanted To Be Friends With Penny
When Amy was introduced inThe Big Bang Theory, she was more like Sheldon — smart but socially awkward. She was chosen as best mate because of these similarities, and despite everything they went through, they ultimately had a happy ending. Unlike Sheldon, however, who was more like the same when the nerd-centric sitcom wrapped up,Amy changed a lot. Upon the discovery of the appeal of having female friends, she became over-eager to always be included.
Some of Amy’s weirder gestures include commissioning a massive painting showing her and Kaley Cuoco’s character even though they never posed for it.
Amy was particularly clingy to Penny, and at some points, she even started acting creepy and stalker-like just to be close to her. Granted that Bialik doesn’t play Amy in herNight Courtseason 3 appearance, her schtick in the episode is reminiscent of the earlier version of herThe Big Bang Theorycharacter. Sheldon’s wife used to be so motivated to maintain some kind of relationship with Penny (and even Bernadette). Some of Amy’s weirder gestures include commissioning a massive painting showing her and Kaley Cuoco’s character even though they never posed for it.
Kaley Cuoco’s Big Bang Theory Spinoff Update Makes Young Sheldon Finale’s Flashforward More Frustrating
Young Sheldon finale’s flashforward scene with Sheldon and Amy is now more frustrating after Kaley Cuoco’s The Big Bang Theory spinoff comment.
Occasionally, this side of Amy would come out in later seasons ofThe Big Bang Theory. That includes when she forced Penny to have kids so they could be friends with her and Sheldon’s children — something that theYoung Sheldonfinalefailed to confirm. While this version of Amy will likely never return even if aThe Big Bang Theoryreboot happens, at leastNight Courtis able to resurrect her briefly.
