If it is a comfort or comfort for the guy whose personality has been transplanted in Sheldon Cooper and, to a lesser extent, Raj Koothrappali, the two men are modified for their best thanks to their respective friendships with Penny. Penny is the proxy of the undeniable public of the show – which means that she knows nothing about their scientific work, which gives viewers an entry point into the complex intellectual world of Sheldon, Leonard, Raj and their other friend Howard Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) all occupy. (However, it is important to note that the program of the show makes her dirty.) Penny is intelligent, but simply in a different path, and she softens guys, in particular Raj and Sheldon, and helps them to become different people (in the case of Sheldon, Penny definitely helps her for people).

In 2022, Bill Prady and Chuck Lorre spoke to Weekly entertainment For the 15th anniversary of “The Big Bang Theory” and explained how, through Penny, characters like Leonard and Sheldon were able to discover essentially new sides of themselves and even the world beyond their apartment. “These characters had trouble participating in the world and it was difficult and even painful to do so,” Lorre told interviewer Keith Langston. “This is something that we all felt and all understand. I think most people can identify themselves at a certain level, this alienation, even popular people.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Lorre noted an important thing about Penny’s character: “Penny was a risk”. Prady has accepted, saying, “Exactly. Personally, I think the world is a terrifying place, and I hate the holidays and speak to people and all that, so I have this idea:” Maybe I should just stay at home and watch “Star Trek” […] “Star Trek” is my friend, and “Star Trek” never failed me.

“”Sheldon had a very circumscribed life, “continued Lorre.” But Penny was this random element that was introduced into their lives and changed them forever. Sheldon could never have the rigid order he wanted after his arrival. “(Also, as Lorre pointed out,” and Penny is the one who healed Raj. She was the point of pivot for all these characters. “) Let us hope that this guy who inspired Prady is doing well, and perhaps had a positive influence like Penny in his life.
“The Big Bang Theory” is in trouble on Max now.
