Leonard Hofstadter:
Leonard is an experimental physicist from Caltech who rooms with Sheldon in their rundown apartment building in apartment 4A, in which the elevator always seems to be out of order. He keeps a whiteboard in their living room on which he works on theoretical particle physics. While Sheldon's genius seems to be focused primarily in math and science, Leonard is indicated to be proficient in literature and history as well as the sciences; he is able to solve a woman's crossword puzzle in seconds, the answers being mostly literature based, e.g. Vladimir Nabokov. It is also suggested that Leonard's IQ is not as high as Sheldon's; Sheldon scoffs at Leonard's whiteboard theories as common enough to be "scribbled on the wall of every men's room at MIT." Most of the equations on Leonard and Sheldon's boards feature complex higher mathematics, such as
virtual particles in QM, or series of Reimann zeta functions. Leonard feels at home with his genius colleagues, but wants more socially. He is reluctant to let Penny know about his recreational activities (such as Klingon Boggle) and is probably reluctant to even partake in such activities in the first place, because although he secretly likes them, he doesn't like to be seen as a nerd. He also dislikes his friends' habit of rattling off different trivial facts, something to which all the other geniuses enjoy both listening and participating. Sweet but sarcastic, Leonard also seems to be the most well-adjusted one of the group; he is quick to try new things apart from his nerd friends and, between Sheldon and him, is the only one who feels that he "should do something" when Penny begins to recount her recent breakup. Despite his attempts to reject his nerd status, he certainly is
one, with his Star Wars hygiene products and his ability to blurt out the wrong things in front of women, such as when he's trying to invite Penny to lunch and mentions that curry is a natural laxative. He falls head over heels for Penny within seconds of spotting her and while at first it seems like lust rather than love, by the end of the pilot episode he has already announced to Sheldon, "our babies will be smart and beautiful." Sheldon, however, is quick to add, "not to mention imaginary."

that the end of their relationship was because she actually defected to North Korea.
*Leonard is commonly seen wearing "Geek Wear" (clothes that are scientifically inspired) such as, in episode 1x03 where he
can be seen wearing a shirt with a "Paradox" molecule.

*Leonard's middle name is Leakey (named for the famous anthropologist that his father worked with, "it had nothing to do

"He's just a good guy, not a Hollywood guy, not a smarty rat brat packer. And he's polite. Huh? A polite person who's on TV? Yup. He's very friendly, too."
Roseanne producer, Eric Gilliland

"Johnny Galecki of The Big Bang Theory rocks. Super nice guy and great taste in movies. " John Geoff after the Screams awards(Green Lantern)

Met and interviewed Johnny this week as a co-host on the View. I like this man. Very great guy
Bryant Renfroe, may2010

"We didn't have a TV because we didn't have a whole lot of money," added Galecki, who came back to Chicago in 1998 to do the play "Pot Mom" with his "Roseanne" castmate Laurie Metcalfe. "My parents would have their friends over -- their friends who thought, 'How can you live without a TV?' By the time they left, they understood why, because I had done the second act of 'West Side Story' and the first act of 'Jesus Christ Superstar,' playing all the parts. In many ways, that's what I'm still doing. I'm just getting paid better." Johnny, jan.2010
