"The Big Bang Theory" will welcome back Emmy winning guest star Bob Newhart as Professor Proton, Sheldon's childhood TV hero.

Leonard explained that he and Sheldon has been huge fans of Professor Proton when they were children and that he is the reason they both pursued physics as a career.

While at the Emmys the Hollywood Reporter caught up with Newhart to ask if he would be reprising his role as Professor Proton. Newhart told the Hollywood Reporter, "I'm scheduled to do the next episode in October, which means probably sweeps and it'll probably be on in November. We were already talking about two more appearances."

Bill Nye the Science Guy has just finished an appearance as a contestant on ABC's "Dancing With The Stars." Nye was eliminated from the show earlier this week. Bill Nye began his career in science as a mechanical engineer before hosting his PBS show "Bill Nye The Science Guy" from 1993-1998.
