The Television network HBO has recently given the go-ahead for the production of a spin-off from the Big Bang Theory, titled Stuart Fails to Save the Universe. It will be starring Kevin Sussman, maintaining his character Stuart from The Big Bang Theory alongside other characters from The Big Bang Theory, his girlfriend Denise, Bret the odd geologist from Caltech, who also had a crush on Amy, and Kripke, with the awkward speech sound and Sheldon's nemesis at Caltech.

The show will revolve around how Stuart tries to fix the mess he created when he broke a device that was built by Sheldon and Leonard, which leads to the creation of a multiverse Armageddon.
Of course, more nerdy stories, and who better to lead this story than the man who runs a comic book store and knows a lot about the multiverse and other things relating to that.
Yeah, the news grabbed my full attention since I happen to be a hardcore fan of The Big Bang Theory, but what I find more intriguing is the idea that the use of CGI will be employed in the creation of this sitcom. Well, the use of Computer Generated Imagery should not be new to me as movies have been on it for a while, and given that it is the era of Artificial Intelligence mixed with movie remakes and TV spin-offs, we should be seeing more of CGI.
Nonetheless, I cannot stop asking myself how Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady, the producers of The Big Bang Theory, are going to use CGI in a sitcom and still make it funny. I do want to keep my hopes high, but I am looking forward to what this new Stuart Saves the World has to offer, and since other spin-offs from the Big Bang Theory universe, Young Sheldon and George's First Marriage, were more than decent in the of TV ratings. This show might do well, too.

Although Stuart is a character I find genuinely funny, and how he has been forgotten in scenes from The Big Bang Theory makes him funnier. He was not a frequent character in the early seasons of the sitcom since he was only the comic bookstore owner, so he appeared mostly in scenes from the comic bookstore.
Then things changed from season 9 to 12, where he became a part of the group after squatting in Howard's mother's house, where he served as her caregiver and close friend, which was a little bit weird but in a funny sense as Howard kept getting jealous about Stuart's close relationship with his mom.
When Howard's mother passed, it was a tough blow for everyone, but Stuart was there to support Howard and his wife, Bernette. That is not all, he also helped in managing the home when Howard and Bernette had their first child and the second one too.
How things have changed for Stuart now. Starring in a show as the lead, coming from being a supportive character on The Big Bang Theory. I genuinely hope this TV show gets off on a good start and he gets the accolade he deserves for his outstanding acting style in making the awkward look funny.
Even though I will still watch it when it comes out, a part of me is hoping HBO does what Netflix does by dropping an entire season at once. It will be quite nice to watch the entire season at once, bingeing it with some nice popcorn and shawarma while expecting some pretty good laughs from this nerdy character, Stuart Bloom.
