Women scientists in American television comedybeakers, big bangs and broken hearts /[electronic resource] :by Karina Judd, Bridget Gaul, Anna-Sophie Jürgens. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2025. - ix, 104 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm. - Palgrave studies in science and popular culture,2731-4367. - Palgrave studies in science and popular culture..

Chapter 1: "Even female scientists can land a man" - Introduction -- Chapter 2: "Oh the team had thoughts, but you know, 'misogyny, misogyny'" - Research Context -- Chapter 3: "I thought you'd be doing each other's nails and buying matching tote bags off Etsy" - Theoretical Frameworks and Methods -- Chapter 4: "Congrats. Now I have two female bosses. It's like I'm working at Goop" - Findings -- chapter 5: "It is so annoying how no one knows how nerdy you are because you're so hot" - Discussion -- Chapter 6: "You winning a Nobel Prize would be an inspiration to all women"- Conclusion.

This book explores how women scientists are portrayed in hit American TV comedies The Big Bang Theory, Never Have I Ever, and Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist using a science communication lens. The authors illuminate how comedy, especially irony and satire, communicate complex ideas about gender and science - both reflecting and challenging stereotypes about women in science. Perfect for fans of science, humor, media, and feminism, Women Scientists in American Television Comedy: Beakers, Big Bangs and Broken Hearts highlights the roles science communication, humor and pop culture play in shaping our understanding of women in STEM.
