Here's What the 'Big Bang Theory' Cast Has Been Up to Since the Show Ended

Parsons can be heard (but not seen) reprising his role as the youthful version of his super nerdy physicist character on the show Young Sheldon, focused on the character’s childhood growing up as a genius in a typical family. He’s set to be in the movie Spoiler Alert, based on the book by Michael Ausiello, was seen in the mini-series Hollywood and you can hear his distinctive voice as Stan on the Pete the Cat TV series.

While Bialik was a later addition to the regular cast, her character, Amy Farrah-Fowler, was the perfect nerdy and smart woman for Sheldon. Now the former Blossom star is one of the hosts chosen to fill Alex Trebek’s shoes on the trivia quiz show Jeopardy! She’s also the star of the TV sitcom Call Me Kat on CBS.

Helberg played Howard Wolowitz, Sheldon and Leonard’s nerdy coworker whose engineering skills helped him find his way into space. Since leaving the popular series, he hasn’t done too much. He was the squirrel in the TV series short Dug Days, as well as featured in the movie As Sick as They Made Us, and Space Oddity.

Rauch joined the cast in Season 3 as Bernadette, a young woman working at The Cheesecake Factory with Penny, who was studying microbiology. Her adorable voice and sweet nature were just part of what Howard fell in love with. Now Rauch is slated to star as Abby Stone in the remake of the TV series Night Court. She was also the voice of Gwen in the film Cats and Dogs 3: Paws Unite.

Nayyar played Rajesh Koothrappali (often just called Raj), a sweet astrophysicist who was originally a painfully shy around women until he gained some confidence. Nayyar can be heard as the voice of Guy Diamond in Trolls World Tour, and stars in the TV series Suspicion on AppleTV+.

The roommate of Sheldon, and the love of Penny, Leonard Hofstadter had a lot of big personalities to contend with and often played the straight man. Since leaving he has had a recurring role on the TV series The Conners, reprising his Roseanne role as David Healy.

Gilbert (who had worked with co-star Johnny Galecki on Roseanne before Big Bang Theory) was part of the cast in the first two seasons as a co-worker and sometimes romantic interest for Leonard and Howard. She left after season 2, but reappeared sporadically. Now the long-time Talk co-host has gone full circle and has returned to the role of Darlene Conner on The Conners.
