Carol Ann Susi as Debbie Wolowitz – Then:
We may have never known what Howard Wolowitz's mother, Debbie, actually looked like, but the characters' descriptions throughout the seasons only made her off-screen comments more hilarious. Characterized as the quintessential Jewish mother, who must have been born and raised in the heart of New York City, she showed her love for her son by smothering him. Howard was so dependent on his mother that he lived in her house until his marriage to Bernadette.
