... Question: On The Big Bang Theory, everyone has a last name except Penny. Why is that? Even the episode of her father coming to visit and Penny asking Leonard to play that they were still together, the credits only listed the character of her father as "Wade," no last name. If she does have one, can you tell me what it is? — Tootie
Matt Roush: That's a trade secret for now, though the producers have said they will ultimately reveal Penny's last name. My theory is that, unlike the accomplished brainiacs she lives among, Penny hasn't yet truly made a name for herself — her only badge right now is the one she wears on her Cheesecake Factory uniform (first names only) — but once she does, that's when we're all likely to find out what it is...
The BiG Bang Theory airs Thursday at 8/7C on CBS.
