Biografía

Voted friendliest in his high school graduating class.

His favorite character on Big Bang (2007) is Penny.

Good friends with Big Bang (2007) co-stars Simon Helberg and Kaley Cuoco.

He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Television at 6533 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California on March 11, 2015.

Is prone to motion sickness. Riding in a car will make him nauseated so he prefers to drive.

[on credentials for playing a physicist in Big Bang (2007)] I was very fascinated with meteorology at a young age. I lived on the Gulf Coast and hurricanes blew through there. That is the class I failed in college: meteorology. I didn't have an interest in the particulars - but what a wonderful basis for a show.

[After he won a Golden Globe for Big Bang (2007) which was presented by his co-star Kaley Cuoco] I told her as soon as we got offstage that "No matter how many years I work in this business, no matter how many other awards I might get, that will never happen twice." To be presented with this statuette by my co-star who I love so much meant the world to me.

If I ever wrote a script myself, it would be strongly emotional material.

I've always loved TV very much, and as a child I was so religious with it, but now it's more when it fits in.

I'm also a big American Idol: The Search for a Superstar (2002) fan. I think it's just great fun.
