The 29-year-old actress, who is perhaps best known for her role as Claudia Casey on the sitcom Less than Perfect, made her return to primetime TV last night as she made her debut on the sitcom created and executive produced by Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady for CBS. But according to TV Guide, the well-regarded comedian will be lingering The Big Bang Theory for quite some time as she has been tapped for a multi-episode run as Leonard's brand new girlfriend. "The Lizard-Spock Expansion," the most recent episode of The Big Bang Theory, saw a smittenWolowitz, who thinks he's found his soul mate until the woman, Dr. Stephanie Barnett (Sara Rue) meets Leonard. More comedy are in store for Sara Rue on The Big Bang Theory so fans will just have to stay tuned every Monday at 8pm ET/PT to find out.Prior to The Big Bang Theory, Sara Rue played the recurring character Naomi on CBS' Two and a Half Men. She also appeared as Amanda McCafferty on several installments of the action drama The Division. Furthermore, she made her mark on television with roles on the teen drama Popularas Carnen Ferrara and as Joyce, the compulsive overeating sister of Grace Adler (Debra Messing), on the NBC sitcom Will & Grace.Apart from the small screen, Rue has also acquired work on the big screen as she has been cast in Not Since You, an upcoming drama film about a tight-knit group of college friends who graduated from NYU the year of 9/11. In this movie, Rue co-stars with Desmond Harrington, Kathleen Robertson, Christian Kane and Will Estes of American Dreams fame.Additionally, Rue is also working on For Christ's Sake, a comedy flick written by The Guild's Jeff Lewis. Slated to air in 2009, the movie also stars Alex Borstein, Will Sasso, Kyle Bornheimer, and Armin Shimerman, among others.Last but not the least, Rue can also be seen in Spaced, an American version of the British show of the same name that features a pair of strangers posing as a married couple in order to rent an apartment.

It's great to see Sara Rue again I loved "Less Than Perfect" Why that show was cancelled & so many other crappy "Reality Shows" continue to exist is beyond comprehension (Although I do watch Survivor,but I would give it up in a heartbeat to have Less Than Perfect back) I wish I would have saved it on tape.I thought it would come out on Dvd like everything else I did have a few episodes taped but I would love it if they put the whole series on Dvd in the U.S.I hope they keep Sara Rue on the show permanently.She is so funny.It's good to see her getting so much work.

I was checking out Sara's IMDB page, and noticed she was on Big Bang Theory.I just started watching Big Bang Theory, and it is funny!I'm glad I found the show, and can't wait to watch more episodes.Sara Rue is a great actress, so I hope to see more of her on Big Bang Theory.

Totally agree REALLY is a shame Less Than Perfect didn't make it.At least I can see Sara on Big Bang & Zach Levi on Chuck.Kinda funny they are on other shows on different networks @ the same time.

I don't see any sparks between her and Leonard either. The whole episode, I kept asking myself, "what would he see in that????"Sara was much better as Berta's loose daughter on 2 1/2 men - intentionally or not, she comes across as a dim bulb with no ambition and no interests. Casting her as a doctor is a real stretch.

I don't think Less Than Perfect was ever really given a chance.I know it was moved around several times.(I missed a couple episodes because of this) That show was so funny !!! I'm glad to see that some of the actors from the show have gotten other gigs.Where the hell has Andy Dick been??? He's way too funny not to be on a show.

SHE IS A VERY FUNNY ACTRESS AND I THINK SHE CAN ADD SO MUCH TO THIS SHOW. I WOULDN'T CARE IF SARA GILBERT WAS WRITTEN OUT I DON'T THINK SHE ADDS MUCH TO THE SHOW.

I was really pissed when they canceled Less Than Perfect.Especially when all these "Reality Shows" stay on the air.God forbid we could keep something on the air that was actually funny!!! I actually like Leslie (Sara) as a recurring character. I think it would be cool to have Sheldon & Leslie "Hook Up" a few seasons down the road.It would make for some interesting lines especially since they detest each other.
