After 12 seasons and 279 episodes, “The Big Bang Theory” went out Thursday — no, we’re not gonna say it — on a high note, with an immensely satisfying series finale. And it was one that could definitely help four-time champ Jim Parsons do the same at the Emmys.
The emotional peak of the hour-long closer was Sheldon’s (Parsons) acceptance speech for the Nobel Prize (watch above), which he shared with his wife Amy (Mayim Bialik). The whole gang flew out for the occasion — with Buffy herself, Sarah Michelle Gellar, as Raj’s (Kunal Nayyar) date — and after Amy gave her speech, Sheldon took the podium. The news of the award had made Sheldon revert to his old self-absorbed, inconsiderate self, but after seeing his friends in the audience, Sheldon, a man so fastidious he has a set of rules for roommates to follow, set aside his “long and somewhat self-centered” speech and winged it.
