Here’s a synopsis: Comic book store owner Stuart Bloom is tasked with restoring reality after he breaks a device built by Sheldon and Leonard, accidentally bringing about a multiverse Armageddon. Stuart is aided in this quest by his girlfriend Denise, geologist friend Bert, and quantum physicist/all-around pain in the ass Barry Kripke. Along the way, they meet alternate-universe versions of characters we’ve come to know and love from The Big Bang Theory. As the title implies, things don’t go well.
It was also just revealed that Grammy winner Danny Elfman will provide original theme music for the upcoming series.
Reprising their roles from Big Bang Theory for the spinoff include Kevin Sussman as Stuart Bloom, Lauren Lapkus as his girlfriend Denise, Brian Posehn as Bert and John Ross Bowie as Barry Kripke.
