The Big Bang Theory: 10 Moments When Sheldon Cooper Was Wrong

1. Almost Everything He's Ever Said About Howard

Episode: Almost all. Whilst all the characters rib on Howard to some extent €“ even Bernadette €“ Sheldon measures his opinion of Howard as a scientist, a friend and even a human being against his lower educational status. Out of all the scientists on the show, the Doctorate-ly Challenged Howard is actually one of the most successful. A happy accident led him to unwittingly discover the first evidence of life on Mars (although due to said accident he couldn't claim credit for it), and he has even been an astronaut. He built a robot arm once too, but that one didn't end well. So really, Sheldon is wrong on all levels here. Howard is a lot more accomplished than he would ever dream of giving him credit for; maybe even more so than Sheldon himself. It raises the question: is Sheldon really just a little jealous of Howard...?
