'The Big Bang Theory' Producers Sued For Copyright Infringement Over 'Soft Kitty' Lyrics

Well it appears that even "The Big Bang Theory" is not immune to copyright lawsuits. The song "Soft Kitty" claimants, the heirs to a New Hampshire teacher who wrote a poem about a "soft kitty" eight decades ago said in a lawsuit Monday that TV's "The Big Bang Theory" is violating their copyrights.

Edith Newlin's daughters sued CBS and other media-related companies over the copyright to a song the lawsuit says has repeatedly been used on the hit sitcom. The case is ongoing.

"The Soft Kitty Lyrics are among the best-known and most popular aspects of 'The Big Bang Theory,'" the lawsuit says. "They have become a signature and emblematic feature of the show and a central part of the show's promotion."

Not sure, but The Wizard thinks they will likely settle out of court with a big bang of a payoff!
