Fans think Howard changed the most on The Big Bang Theory
Howard starts the show as a man who can barely be around women without saying something inappropriate to a doting husband and father. It's quite impressive, and while the other nerds on the show go through their own arcs, fans seem to have a soft spot for Howard's.
Redditor u/anxiouscoconut137 (https://www.reddit.com/r/bigbangtheory/comments/tgxdvx/i_have_something_to_say/) wrote, "Howard's growth and generosity to his friends is my favorite. He's also so funny. I think he's my favorite on the show." Those sentiments were echoed by u/groguuuuuu, who chimed in with, "He has the best character arc on the show. He changed the most for his loved ones."
Others thought Howard remained stagnant in one area of his personality throughout the show's run. Another user wrote, "Howard made a lot of personal growth in the show. But until the end he was still a man child who never helped out with his family and wanted his wife to take care of him like his mom did." In that sense, Howard sticks with the tried-and-true sitcom formula of having characters never go through any development so that the same jokes can be mined one season after the next.
But for the most part, everyone seems in agreement that he had a worthwhile arc throughout the show.
