The characters of The Big Bang Theory are brilliant scientists reflected in the series as nerds. You can learn about some science stuff if you watch it, but before explaining the science activities, I have a proposal analising one of the characters, Sheldon. He is the cleverest of the group, excepcionally gifted. He posseses the Asperger Syndrome or disorder, an autist spectrum disorder characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction, limited empathy with peers and repetitive patterns of behaviour and interests.
You can teach Psychology to your students with this example of behaviourism, studying the disorder and cases. Also you can make a point to the empathy, a very important feeling in mates life.
