The Big Bang Theory: Stuart Bloom’s 10 Funniest Quotes

Source: CBS

The Big Bang Theory relied on the comedy of Leonard, Sheldon, Howard, Penny and Raj for years before giving new life to the show with the addition of a few new main characters, namely Amy, Bernadette and Stuart. Stuart Bloom first appeared in Season 2 as the mundane and dry witted comic book store owner, and as the year’s have progressed, his role has gotten much bigger. As it turns out, Stuart is now one of the funniest parts of The Big Bang. His depressed personality is much different and darker than the show is used to, but thanks to Kevin Sussman’s acting and perfect execution of the script and character, it works! Check out Stuart’s 10 funniest quotes!

Stuart: “I like all kinds of music, but my favorite genre is free.”
Raj: (Talking about “filk” music). “It’s been around for years. It’s like folk music, but with a sci/fi fantasy theme.”
