“This season, especially toward the end, I’ve gotten to have a lot more stuff to do and it’s been very fun seeing [Howard] try to deal with NASA training. Howard has such a bravado and a false sense of his own strength and machismo; he’s all talk and swagger so it’s fun to watch him actually have to exert himself and confront intimidating people like Bernadette’s father and see him cower.Playing the overconfident idiot is a trait in comedy that I’ve always loved and I think he is that and this is him being put to the test. He’s finally got to put his money where his mouth is and he’s terrified.“ -Simon Helberg
