It’s finally official: Big Bang theory spin off Stuart does not save the universe was green lit by HBO Max, following anterior reports of 2023 which he had been in development. We don’t know when he starts to film or in the air, but fans can start to get excited.
Or can we? This is not the first spin-off that we saw for the franchise, with CBS and Paramount + associate to bring us seven seasons of Young sheldon And a new child on the block Georgie & Mandy’s first marriage.
Even if there was overlap between the successful comedy series and its initial prequel, Big Bang theory (TBBT) has not been on our screens since 2019. But making a return with a spin-off like this worried, and not in an original way of Sheldon Cooper.
Stuart fails to save the universe is not the part of the Big Bang Theory universe that we want to see
If you could choose to follow up with any element of Big Bang theoryIt would certainly not be with the owner of the comic strip Stuart (Kevin Sussman). When we saw him for the last time, he had finally moved with the love of his life Denise (Lauren Lapkus), whom he had originally hired to help in the store after she became popular.
Here is what HBO Max tells us to wait to Stuart does not save the universe: “Responsible for restoring reality after having broken a device built by Sheldon and Leonard, accidentally causing a multifiverse Armageddon. Stuart is helped in this quest by his girlfriend Denise, his geologist friend Bert (Brian Posenn), and the quantum physicist / all the old donkey in Barry Kripke (John Ross Bowie). Big Bang theory. As the title suggests, things are not going well. »»
It is an intelligent update card for HBO Max. As synopsis suggests, the favorites of fans of TBBT could come back, but it is not guaranteed. The most obvious monitoring of the main series would have been to catch up with Sheldon (Jim Parsons), Penny (Kayley Cuoco), Leonard (Johnny Galecki) or Howard (Simon Helberg). Choosing to follow a minor character fans may not remember or care is the very definition of the meme “Go Girl, does not give us anything”.
Can we then assume that an approach to the left field as Stuart does not save the universe could really damage the inheritance of TBBT? We are talking a lot about the existing IPS left alone in favor of the original narration, and this could be an excellent example. We do not currently know what value the new spin-off will add, apart from the choice to appease fans with surprise cameos as it wishes.
There is also proof in the pudding to fall back. While Young sheldon has become a surprise hit that ruled the Nielsen notes, Georgie & Mandy’s first marriage was much more mixed. Admittedly, it was renewed for a second season, but after the format in Cam Young sheldonHe returned to TBBT Multi-cam signature approach. Combined with a laughter, public reactions suggest that the time for classic sitcom formats has been and left.
If Stuart does not save the universe can look into what has come before TBBT Without making a superficial cameo soup with its views of high notes, there is potential for a job well done. Otherwise, well … Stuart might not save his own show.
