Serial ini berkisar pada lima karakter: Leonard Hofstadter dan Sheldon Cooper yang merupakan teman seapartemen, keduanya adalah fisikawan yang bekerja di California Institute of Technology (Caltech); Penny, seorang pramusaji berambut pirang yang juga bercita-cita menjadi aktris, yang tinggal di seberang; teman-teman Leonard dan Sheldon yang lain, Howard Wolowitz yang merupakan insinyur penerbangan dan luar angkasa, serta Rajesh Koothrappali, seorang astrofisikawan. Keempat pria ini memiliki sifat canggung secara sosial dan kecerdasan di atas rata-rata, kontras dengan Penny yang pandai bersosialisasi.

Tiga karakter pendukung lainnya antara lain Leslie Winkle, seorang fisikawan di Caltech yang juga merupakan kekasih Leonard dan Howard pada waktu berbeda, dan telah meninggalkan acara ini setelah musim ketiga; Bernadette Rostenkowski, istri Howard, seorang ahli mikrobiologi dan sebelumnya seorang pramusaji paruh waktu bersama Penny; dan Amy Farrah Fowler, seorang neurosaintis yang bergabung dengan kelompok ini setelah dipertemukan dengan Sheldon lewat situs pencarian jodoh.

Acara ini diproduksi oleh Warner Bros. Television dan Chuck Lorre Productions. Pada Agustus 2009, sitkom ini memenangkan serial komedi terbaik pada penghargaan TCA dan Jim Parsons (Sheldon) memenangkan penghargaan yang sama. Pada 2010, acara ini memenangkan People's Choice Award untuk Komedi Terfavorit, sementara Parsons memenangkan Primetime Emmy Award. Pada 16 Januari 2011, Parsons dianugerahi Golden Globe untuk Aktor Terbaik dalam Serial Televisi Komedi/Musikal, penghargaan yang juga dibacakan oleh Kaley Cuoco (Penny). Pada 18 September 2011, Parsons sekali lagi dianugerahi Emmy untuk Aktor Terbaik dalam Serial Komedi.

Ketika musim ketiga ditayangkan pertama kalinya pada 21 September 2009, sitkom ini mendapatkan peringkat rating tertinggi di CBS pada malam tersebut, dengan demografi dewasa usia 18-49 (4.6/10), dengan 12.83 juta penonton.
