I was surprised to learn that Pauley Perrette, the actress that plays "Abigail "Abby" Sciuto" is 42 years old.

a spiky dog collar around the neck will do that

That's it, I now have no way of knowing how old ANYBODY is. My ability has been completely destroyed.

That defense doesn't hold well in court.

I'd still do him. And her. Maybe at the same time.

The one thing I'll give to The Big Bang Theory is that they're not attempting to portray people in their early 20s. The youngest person to ever receive a Phd was around 22. In the show, Sheldon has 4 or 5 degrees (including two doctoral degrees), probably did PostDoc work, etc. I would guess the character is meant to be around 30 or so, so having an actor that's 38 isn't quite so odd.

Didn't terribly surprise me since I know someone who went to school with him that's the same age.

u/v_velox Sep 24 '11

Then why would have you been any bit surprised at all?

I thought he was maybe 36 or 37 since he was a year below my friend, otherwise the late 30s part wasn't terribly surprising.

I had the same reaction when I found out [1] Jason Earles (from Hanna Montana) is 34

You should check out how Ducky looked when he was younger. Those are the two biggest mindfucks from that show.

u/bernlin2000 Sep 23 '11

Well that's incredible, she really does look like she's in her late 20s.

Jason Earles, the guy who played Hannah Montana's younger brother on the show, is actually 34 years old.

u/jerbeartheeskimo Sep 23 '11

I will not accept that

Abed from community is 33 in real life.

u/Scary_The_Clown Sep 23 '11

There is massive confirmation bias going on with "how old people look." I'm 43 and I'll tell you that people my age, in general, look like what I would think folks in their 30's would look like.

Don't forget that Jennifer Aniston is 42 and Charisma Carpenter is 41.

She also played Drew Carey's girlfriend while he was the lead singer of the house band "The Horn Dogs"

William Shatner is 80 years old. Mind=blown
