Top 5 Funniest Big Bang Theory Episodes, Ranked by Reddit

Despite having finished four years ago, The Big Bang Theory is still one of the most watched sitcoms in TV history. Centered around a group of geek scientists and their friends, the show is replete with light-hearted humor, which makes it a fan favorite for audiences of different ages and backgrounds.

Here are five episodes of The Big Bang Theory that Reddit users find the most entertaining.

5. The Spock Resonance (7.9)

In the seventh episode of Season 9, Sheldon is being interviewed for a documentary about Spock, his childhood idol from Star Trek, while still being overwhelmed by his recent breakup with Amy. Penny gives Sheldon a napkin autographed by Leonard Nimoy, the actor who played the revered character, which sends him over the moon — much to the viewers' enjoyment.

4. The Terminator Decoupling (8.1)

Episode 7, Season 2, follows the gang's train trip to San Francisco. Leonard, Howard, and Raj meet Summer Glau, the star of Firefly, Serenity and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and contend for her attention.

Meanwhile, Sheldon resorts to Penny's assistance to retrieve his flash drive. Brimming with hilarious character interactions, this episode is a real pleasure to watch.

3. The Boyfriend Complexity (8.4)

The ninth episode of Season 4 shows the characters under very unusual circumstances. Penny asks Leonard to impersonate her boyfriend for her father, while Raj and Bernadette try to open Howard's eyes to his toxic relationship with his mother. Although Sheldon is a bit left behind in the episode, his appearances inevitably bring gags to the viewers and balance out the overall seriousness.

2. The Staircase Implementation (9.0)

Episode 22 of Season 3 offers viewers a retrospective look on the characters' pasts as they reminisce about their lives. Leonard tells Penny the story of how he met Sheldon, and the rest of the gang is subtly woven into the fabric of the episode's plot.

It's funny, excellently written, and still one of the show's highest-rated episodes.

1. The Adhesive Duck Deficiency (8.9)

Episode 8, Season 3, is Redditors' ultimate favorite. Focusing on the dynamics of Penny and Sheldon, which is always joyful to watch, it finds the rest of the gang high as a kite under the desert night sky as they are waiting for a meteor shower. This episode is both typical and unconventional in terms of its humor and plot, which makes it so entertaining, despite the moderate rating.
