Chuck Lorre Is Famous For His Vanity Cards On The Big Bang Theory And Beyond. He Used One This Week To Thank The LAFD For Saving His Home

by

Chuck Lorre is well-known for creating comedic television shows, such as “Mom”, “Two and a Half Men”, and notably “The Big Bang Theory“. He even extended the universe of “Big Bang” by co-creating spinoffs like “Young Sheldon” and the ongoing series “Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage”. If you’ve ever watched any of these shows during their airtime, which would include 2025, you might have noticed the personal messages or amusing stories included at the end of each episode, a tradition known as vanity cards, signed by Lorre. Most recently, he utilized the vanity card for “Georgie & Mandy”‘s winter premiere to express gratitude towards the Los Angeles Fire Department.

As a dedicated fan, it’s tough to pick a favorite vanity card from The Big Bang Theory, but the one Chuck Lorre crafted for the January 30 episode of ‘Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage’ might just become one of his most touching in his impressive career in sitcom creation and production. Here’s what he penned:

“In the grand tradition of melodramatic finales, this is it, folks. The last scene of a story that began with two people meeting in a coffee shop, ended in a church, and along the way, taught us all something about love, family, and the importance of saying ‘I do.’ So as we bid farewell to Georgie and Mandy, remember: Love is patient, love is kind. It keeps no record of wrongs. And if you’re lucky, it lasts a lifetime.”

To the brave team on Fire Truck 14 from the Los Angeles Fire Department,

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt thanks. It was your quick thinking and swift action that saved my home from being engulfed by fire, even though it had already devastated my neighbor’s house. I can hardly find the words to convey just how much you mean to me. Perhaps, as a small gesture of appreciation, I could treat you all to dinner one evening, where I hope you will witness a grown man shedding tears of joy over his chicken parm. Please let me know when would be a good time for us to get together.

Best regards, [Your Name]

In his closing remark, Lorre gratefully said “Thank you, thank you, thank you” before mentioning his name. This was a heartwarming acknowledgment towards the brave members of the Los Angeles Fire Department who valiantly fought against the fires that engulfed LA for several days at the beginning of the new year. If you didn’t catch the episode of Georgie & Mandy to witness the card personally, it can be viewed now with a Paramount+ subscription.

As a passionate film enthusiast, I’ve seen my fair share of heartwrenching narratives unfold on the silver screen. But recently, reality has taken an unexpected turn. Many fellow movie lovers have faced a hardship that no script could ever capture – losing their homes. Among those affected are some familiar faces from the world of entertainment.

Eric Christian Olsen, known for his role in NCIS: LA, and his family were among the displaced. In an extraordinary show of solidarity, his former co-star and real-life sister-in-law Daniela Ruah opened her doors to them. Meanwhile, director Kevin Smith and actress Mandy Moore shared their own brush with disaster, narrowly escaping the same fate that struck others in their circle.

The star of This Is Us took it a step further by launching a GoFundMe campaign for her in-laws who unfortunately lost their homes. It’s a poignant reminder that, despite the glitz and glamour that often define our lives on the big screen, we are all bound by the same threads of humanity.
