Bazinga
Ba-zin-ga!!!!!!
Sheldon mimics Bernadette and Penny's conversation by asking Howard about his shoes.
Notable episodes with Bazinga! include S05E07 The Good Guy Fluctuation (Leonard, who had just broken up with Priya via laptop camera/microphone, then gets frightened by Sheldon rising from his hiding spot under the cushions "Bazinga, punk. Now we're even.") and S03E14 The Einstein Approximation (Leonard unsuccessfully tries to pull Sheldon out of a ball pit, Sheldon keeps bobbing his head up to taunt Leonard with "Bazinga!" before hiding back down in the ball pit).
Jim Parsons has been quoted as crediting former The Big Bang Theory writer Stephen Engel as the one who came up with the word Bazinga for Sheldon's catchphrase. Furthermore, Bazinga implies swag.
Though not a true Bazinga, it was mentioned twice in Season 9. Once Sheldon used it as an Internet address and once when Penny used it after Sheldon mentioned that he planned to have sex with Amy. She waited a few moments for the Bazinga, but was wrong.
The Big Bang Theory episodes using the term "Bazinga"
Edit
S02E23 "The Monopolar Expedition"
(1)
Sheldon: You actually had it right in the first place. Once again, you’ve fallen for one of my classic pranks. Bazinga!
(2)
Sheldon: Leonard, you may be right. It appears that Penny secretly wants you in her life in a very intimate and carnal fashion.
Leonard: You really think so?
Sheldon: Of course not. Even in my sleep-deprived state, I’ve managed to pull off another one of my classic pranks. Bazinga!
(3)
Sheldon: Did you bring the dehydrated low-sodium soy sauce?
Leonard: Check.
Sheldon: Freeze-dried spicy mustard?
Leonard: Check.
Sheldon: Flash-frozen brown rice, not white?
Leonard: Uh, oh, sorry.
Sheldon: Not to worry. I hid it. Bazinga! You’re in my spot.
S03E03 "The Gothowitz Deviation"
(1)
Sheldon: You know, I’ve always wanted to go to a goth nightclub.
Howard: Really?
Sheldon: Bazinga! None of you ever see my practical jokes coming, do you?
(2)
Sheldon: There’s just no pleasing you, is there, Leonard? You weren’t happy with my previous approach to dealing with her, so I decided to employ operant conditioning techniques, building on the work of Thorndike and B.F. Skinner. By this time next week, I believe I can have her jumping out of a pool, balancing a beach ball on her nose.
Leonard: No, this has to stop now.
Sheldon: I’m not suggesting we really make her jump out of a pool. I thought the “Bazinga” was implied.
(3)
Leonard: What could she possibly be talking about for so long?
Sheldon: Obviously, waitressing at the Cheesecake Factory is a complex socioeconomic activity, that requires a great deal of analysis and planning. Bazinga!
S03E04 "The Pirate Solution"
Sheldon: So, that’s what you wear to an interview?
Raj: Come on, dude, we’ve been friends for years.
Sheldon: Oh, pulling strings, are we?
Raj: Sheldon, for God’s sakes, don’t make me beg.
Sheldon: Bazinga! You’ve fallen victim to another one of my classic practical jokes. I’m your boss now. You may want to laugh at that.

S03E18 "The Pants Alternative"
Sheldon: All right, you people ready to have some fun? You have a basic understanding of differential calculus and at least one year of algebraic topology? Well, then here come the jokes. Why did the chicken cross the Mobius strip? To get to the same side. Bazinga!... All right, a neutron walks into a bar and asks, how much for a drink? The bartender says, for you, no charge. Hello?
S03E20 "The Spaghetti Catalyst"
Penny: So, how you been?
Sheldon: Well, my existence is a continuum, so I’ve been what I am at each point in the implied time period.
Penny: You’re just coitusing with me, aren’t you?
Sheldon: Bazinga.
S03E21 "The Plimpton Stimulation"
Howard: Yeah, um, I have a two-part question.
Sheldon: Go ahead.
Howard: A, are you kidding me? And B, seriously, are you freaking kidding me?

Howard: So you’re saying the two of you are going to be sleeping in the same bed?
Sheldon: Yes... Bazinga.
S03E23 "The Lunar Excitation"
Leonard: Okay, we’ve got power to the laser.
Sheldon: I should’ve brought an umbrella.

Howard: That’s a bazinga, right?
Sheldon: One of my best, don’t you think?
S04E02 "The Cruciferous Vegetable Amplification"
The episode where Sheldon turns himself into a Mobile Virtual Presence Device (robot).
Leonard: That’s it. Bye-bye. (Turns off the television with Sheldon's head.)

Sheldon: I have an override switch.
S04E05 "The Desperation Emanation"
Amy: You wanted me to have a boyfriend, Mother. Well, here he is. Have to sign off now. My hunger for Sheldon is stirring in my loins.
Sheldon: Oh, yes, it’s time for me to make love to your daughter’s vagina.
Mrs. Fowler: Oh!
Amy: Thank you, Sheldon, that went very well.
Sheldon: Agreed. Amy, I find myself wondering if we should actually engage in coitus at least one time in our relationship... Bazinga.
S05E07 "The Good Guy Fluctuation"
"Bazinga, punk. Now we’re even."
Leonard: No, no, I messed up a little. You messed up a lot.
Priya: Well, it’s not a competition.
Leonard: Oh yeah, it is, and you won. I, I, I’m, I’m sorry, I have to go (closes lid on laptop as Leonard had been communicating with Priya through the camera/microphone on his laptop). I don’t believe this.
Sheldon (rising out his hiding spot under the sofa cushions): RAWR!!
Leonard: (jumps off sofa, breathing hard from the scare, looking at Sheldon dressed in zombie costume)
Sheldon: Bazinga, punk. Now we’re even.
S05E22 "The Stag Convergence"
Sheldon: (saying some words about Howard at the bachelor party) As is the tradition, I have prepared a series of disrespectful jokes which generate humor at Howard’s expense. Prepare to have your ribs tickled. Howard, I always thought you’d be the last one of us to ever get married, because you are so short and unappealing. Am I right? Let’s see here. Oh, seriously though, Howard, you’re actually one of the most intelligent people I know. And that’s a zinger, because you’re not. I’ve always thought that you’d make someone a fine husband someday. Assuming you’d be able to get the parts, and develop the engineering skills to assemble them, which I don’t see as likely. Hacha! Okay, let me see here. Okay, kidding aside, Howard, you are a good friend. And I wish you nothing but happiness. Bazinga, I don’t!
Leonard: Sheldon…
Sheldon: Doubleazinga! I do! Good luck following that.
Raj: (revealing Howard's sexual history) I think back to all the good times we had, like, uh, when we went camping and spent that night telling each other all our secrets. I told him I’m addicted to pedicures and he told me he lost his virginity to his cousin.
Howard: She was my second cousin.
Sheldon: And the first woman you ever disappointed sexually. Ba-da-bazinga!
TriviaEdit
- Brazilian biologist Andre Nemesio named the species of Brazilian orchid bee Euglossa bazinga after this catch phrase.
- This word was also was part of an episode of Two and a Half Men, titled "Bazinga! That's from a TV show". Two and a Half Men was also previously created by Chuck Lorre and shares many similarities with The Big Bang Theory, but it was that precise episode which confirmed that the two sitcoms are not set in the same continuity.
- According to amateur historian and nerd Will Cuppy, a 'Bazinga' was a seven-stringed harp played in Ancient Egypt.
- Interestingly enough - coincidentally? - a moderately well-known American actor, director and producer, who has played character parts in the Star Trek franchise, is called Bo Zenga. He is fairly well known to industry insiders as a backer, financier and supporter of film and TV projects. Hmmm.
- In the X-Files episode "Hollywood A.D.," which aired April 30, 2000, character "Chuck Burkes," played by actor Bill Dow, utters the word "bazinga," though it is spelled in the captions as "buzzinga."
Scully: "We're not sure. Either a forger by the name of Micah Hoffman, or uh, someone else in the vicinity of Jesus Christ."
Burkes: "Buzzinga."
