‘The Big Bang Theory’ season 7, episode 23 video: Watch a Kaley Cuoco sneak peek!

On Thursday night’s new episode of “The Big Bang Theory,” one of the major story threads that we are going to see play out revolves solely around the issue of Penny’s movie career … as in, whether or not she is really going to be able to handle a big that is not dignified in any way at all.

Luckily, Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting’s character has figured out a valuable rule: Sometimes, it is better to just go along with a cheesy role and make the best of it, even if it is playing a go-go dancer slowly turning into a gorilla, then not going along with it at all and acting holier-than-thou. Some of the most successful actors of our time, including Bryan Cranston and Jon Hamm, started out playing bit parts here and there. Cranston, for example, even appeared in an episode of “Power Rangers.”

This episode is going to be about way more than just Penny’s current state of employment, given that there are also a variety of other stories that have to be tackled before this season comes to a close. We are talking here about such things as whether or not Raj is going to figure out what is going on with his personal life, and also if Howard and Bernadette can come up with a better plan to care for his mother, who is starting to need more help as she gets older in age.

In the end, this story will set up the season finale, which already has plenty of buzz for being one of the most impactful episodes the show has done.
