You may already know this, but Sheldon and Leonard were named for Sheldon Leonard, an actor in over 100 films and TV episodes (including It's a Wonderful Life, Guys and Dolls, I Love Lucy and Cheers) and producer of many shows, including The Danny Thomas Show, The Andy Griffith Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, I Spy, My World and Welcome to It and Gomer Pyle, USMC.

Yes, I did know this. The cats are named specifically for the characters on BBT, though, because we thought their personalities matched pretty well (Sheldon hides when new people come in the house, Leonard is better at dealing with that, they're both kinda weird but Leonard much less so). But I do love Sheldon Leonard as well.

I LOVE BIG BANG THEORY!!!

Last Christmas, my husband got me the first 3 seasons on DVD. I just gotta get the 4th season now....

I love how Penny now has girlfriends to chat with. Last Halloween, a sorority sister of mine and her husband dressed up as Sheldon and Amy.
