The Big Bang Theory’s Opening Credits Had 2 Major Flaws You Never Noticed

Summary:

• Despite the end of its television run back in 2019, The Big Bang Theory is still at everyone’s hearing, and not only thanks to its prequels, but also due to some major mistakes that nobody noticed.
• The show’s widely recognisable opening credits have been feeling just fine with 2 chronological errors that were never fixed during the series’ whole run.
• The two mistakes of exactly the same kind in the show that glorifies science raise a thought whether it was intentional for some unknown reason.

Fans may have learned by heart the song telling them that it all started with a big bang, but not many have been attentive enough when those iconic opening credits were appearing once again. Several years after The Big Bang Theory came to its end, the show is still making headlines, whether it has something to do with its prequel Young Sheldon or not.

Throughout the years of the original series’ existence, fans have been noticing quite blatant plot holes or just tiny bloopers, but never turned to the show’s main theme accompanied by fast-changing images that show the world’s history in recap.

Even some time later, the song of the same title created by Barenaked Ladies will still sound in everyone’s head when it comes to mentioning The Big Bang Theory. With all the energetic magnetism that the song seizes the viewers’ attention, the latter ones have been overlooking a big chronology error that was never fixed during the series’ whole run.

The opening credits start with showing the timeline of world history before it finally reaches the modern times with Sheldon Cooper in it, but there the caption that marks 92,000 BC is suddenly replaced with 91,000 9C. Some bet the existence of such a period of time is quite questionable.

The creators were lucky enough to cover a presumably unwilling mistake with an energetic sequence that left fans unaware about the whole chronology thing, but, ironically enough, the opening credits went down exactly the same road once again, just a bit later.

While the scene continues its historical run, it reaches the point of 1200 BC, and somehow it’s followed by 100100 BC and not 1100 BC as it was originally intended.

Two big mistakes featured in the same sequence lasting around 20 seconds is indeed a very weird turn of events, especially taking into account that the whole show puts science on its pedestal.

Apart from that, nobody connected the dots even when The Big Bang Theory’s opening credits were edited as new main characters were arriving. All this combined, the errors following each other look like the creators’ way to roast those who aren’t that into science.

Well, Sheldon Cooper would be outraged for sure.
