The Evolution of Dr. Bernadette Rostenkowski | The Big Bang Theory

Melissa Rauch looks back on the season that changed everything as Bernadette became a series regular on “The Big Bang Theory.” She recalls what it felt like to see her name in the opening credits for the first time, reveals how the producers discovered she could do the unforgettable Mrs. Wolowitz voice, and shares what she really thought about filming all those bedroom scenes with Howard. Plus, Melissa explains why sharing the screen with Kaley Cuoco and Mayim Bialik became one of her favorite parts of the series.

All episodes of “The Big Bang Theory” are available on HBO Max.
