The "Roseanne" reunion on CBS' "The Big Bang Theory" is becoming permanent.
Sara Gilbert, who did a three-episode guest stint last season, has joined the Warner Bros. TV-produced series as a regular.
She will reprise her role as Leonard's (Johnny Galecki) brilliant colleague and on-and-off love interest Leslie Winkle.
This mirrors the storyline of Gilbert and Galecki's characters on "Roseanne," Darlene Connor and David Healy, who also had an on-again, off-again relationship until tying the knot in the penultimate season's finale.
Gilbert's role on the long-running ABC sitcom earned her two Emmy nominations.
She is repped by the Gersh Agency and Framework Entertainment.
