2007–2016: The Big Bang Theory and other roles In September 2007, Cuoco began starring in the CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory, playing Penny, a Cheesecake Factory employee and aspiring actress who lives across the hall from physicists Dr. Leonard Hofstadter and Dr. Sheldon Cooper.

Frustrated with her acting career, in the fifth-season premiere, she briefly considers returning to Nebraska until landing a part in a commercial for hemorrhoid cream. In "The Monster Isolation", Penny is seen performing the role of Blanche DuBois in her acting class's production of A Streetcar Named Desire.

After the original The Big Bang Theory pilot was reworked, the character Katie turned into Penny, and it became clear to the creators that Cuoco was perfect for the part.

Kaley Cuoco has proven herself a legitimate television actress, starring in two long-running sitcoms and earning a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame all before her 29th birthday.

Penny Eventually Became A Pharmaceutical Sales Rep. She knew nothing about pharmaceuticals but did have something close to sales experience after being a waitress for so many years. Despite being a people person and beautiful, Penny tanked her interview and made a bad impression.

Such a huge TBBT mystery was created surrounding Penny's surname that it's surprising producers would let that Season 2 reveal go unchecked. Regardless, Penny's last name changed from "Teller" to "Hofstadter" towards the end of the series when she and Leonard got married.

Sheldon and Penny have even less in common than do Leonard and Penny. A romantic relationship, let alone a marriage, would never have lasted. Secondly, any involvement with Penny by Sheldon would have destroyed Leonard and Sheldon's friendship, since Leonard was the one deeply in love with her (since the first season).
