Before co-creatingThe Big Bang Theorywith Bill Prady, Lorre had co-createdTwo and a Half Menwith Lee Aronsohn.
They even had a huge audience overseas in the days before streaming, which was practically unheard of.
NeitherTwo and a Half MennorThe Big Bang Theorywere ever critical darlings, but their ratings were huge.
Its more interested in rehashing Lorres feud with Sheen than actually ending the story.
TheTwo and a Half Menfinale was a bitter disappointment, and it has since soured the shows legacy.
That makes it all the more impressive, then, thatThe Big Bang Theorymanaged to deliver a great finale.
It sees Sheldon and Amy receiving a Nobel Prize, andPenny finding out shes pregnant.
It culminates in Sheldon using his acceptance speech to tell his friends how much they mean to him.
