HBO Max has released the official teaser for upcoming Max Original comedy series Stuart Fails to Save the Universe. The teaser confirms that the series will debut new episodes every Friday starting July 24, 2026, just in time for San Diego Comic-Con.
Comic book store owner Stuart Bloom is tasked with restoring reality after he breaks a device built by Sheldon and Leonard, accidentally bringing about a multiverse Armageddon. Stuart is aided in this quest by his girlfriend Denise, geologist friend Bert, and quantum physicist/all-around pain in the ass Barry Kripke. Along the way, they meet alternate-universe versions of characters we’ve come to know and love from “The Big Bang Theory.” As the title implies, things don’t go well.
