Fans enjoy Sheldon's mother, Mary Cooper, the best
In a poll on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/bigbangtheory/comments/ol8d6o/whos_your_favorite_mother_p3/), fans voted for their favorite mom on "The Big Bang Theory." Out of the total 256 votes cast, Mary Cooper came out victorious with an impressive 136. Debbie Wolowitz came in second with 67 votes, followed by Dr. Beverly Hofstadter with 43 and Mrs. Koothrappali with 10.
Like anyone in this world, Mary has her flaws. But it's her questionable morals and borderline racist comments that make her funny. In Season 7, Episode 18, "The Mommy Observation," when Sheldon spots her with a naked man, she tells her son, "I'm not perfect ... and that man's booty is." Regarding her unintentionally offensive remarks, a prime example takes place in "The Luminous Fish Effect," when she makes chicken for the group. As she's preparing the meal, she asks Raj, who is Indian, if it's "one of the animals that you people think is magic."
However, Mary is ultimately good at heart and despite Sheldon's superiority complex, is always there for him. Redditor u/Ragnarsworld (https://www.reddit.com/r/bigbangtheory/comments/n6drbu/comment/gx7z3mj/) said, "She seems to be the [sic] one of few moms on the show who actually loves her child. Beverly doesn't." Redditor u/King_Kong_The_eleven (https://www.reddit.com/r/bigbangtheory/comments/ol8d6o/comment/h5cvs9e/) added, "IMO Mary Cooper is the best one. While I like Mrs. Wolowitz the constant jokes about her get old. I absolutely despise Beverly Hofstadter. She has zero likeable [sic] qualities, she is just too horrid."
Sheldon might not show much appreciation for his mother, but there's much love for Mary Cooper in the fandom.
