Unfortunately, The Big Bang Theory TV show features little physics these days. It is often just like "Friends" except some of the characters happen to work at Caltech. However, a recent episode, "The Troll Manisfestation" centred on superfluid helium and also mentions co-authorship, the arXiv, and physics blogs. There is some commentary on the physics in the episode by string theorist, Lubos Motl.
