Set in the future, comic book store owner Stuart Bloom is tasked with restoring reality after he breaks a device built by Sheldon, Leonard and Howard, accidentally bringing about a multiverse Armageddon.
Stuart is aided in this quest by his girlfriend Denise, geologist friend Bert, and quantum physicist/all-around pain in the ass Barry Kripke. Along the way, they meet alternate-universe versions of characters we've come to know and love from The Big Bang Theory. As the title implies, things don't go well.

Really looking forward to the next season.
This episode was a bit weird for me. Of all the episodes currently streamed as of September 19, 2026, this is probably the one I don’t mind skipping on a rewatch.
It’s really the whole “chewing our cud” thing that gets to me. 😂 That said, there are some genuinely hilarious little jokes throughout the episode. Things like “I have some hay,” the food being treated like normal human food, and Stuart ordering Japanese food from ShrubHub.com had me laughing. The fact that they’re eating grass while still carrying on like everything is completely normal is just ridiculous in the best way.
I also enjoyed seeing Raj again, and the whole “the world is coming to an end” attitude reminded me of the people who used to stand on street corners yelling, “Jesus is coming! Are you ready?” 😂
Overall, there’s definitely a lot here that I find funny, but the constant cud-chewing is just a little too much for me. Out of everything currently streamed, this is the only episode I wouldn’t mind skipping when I eventually do a fourth or fifth rewatch.
Seriously? minus the flashback, credits, intro song this was ten minutes long. stop being lazy or just end your show
