"Big Bang Theory" just beat "American Idol" in ratings for the first time ever with its 100th episode, and series co-creator Bill Prady had an interesting analogy to make: "The job is about going to work and making a really good TV show…. But you do get like a little team pride. It’s a little ‘Detroit Tigers-in-the-World Series,’ you know? You cheer on your team, and what you are really cheering is an amazing fan base that has been coming to the show strong this year, and that’s a really good feeling."
