“I wanted to do something radical that would take me out of my comfort zone. Something the characters on ‘The Big Bang Theory,’ would have loved, hated, and argued about,” Lorre said.

“Stuart Fails to Save the Universe” will focus on Stuart Bloom (Kevin Sussman), the socially awkward comic book shop owner who fans first met during season 2 of “The Big Bang Theory.”

“Stuart Fails To Save The Universe” will be the fourth show in the “Big Bang” universe after two other sitcoms were spawned from the original series to varying levels of success.
