The 23-episode third season of The Big Bang Theory aired during the 2009/2010 TV season. All of the main cast members returned, and the show introduced new characters who would eventually become either series regulars or prominent recurring characters, including Melissa Rauch, Mayim Bialik, and Wil Wheaton (who plays a fictionalized version of himself). The show also brought back Laurie Metcalf, Carol Ann Susi, John Ross Bowie, Kevin Sussman, Christine Baranski, and Sara Gilbert to reprise their roles. The show also continued to get notable guest stars this season, including Lewis Black, Danica McKellar, Yeardley Smith, and Judy Greer (in a role almost as good as her role as Kitty on Arrested Development). The season picks up with the group returning from the North Pole after three months. Penny and Leonard finally make a go at a relationship, which runs into some speed bumps throughout the season. The show primarily sticks with the story-of-the-week format while calling back to previous events and jokes here and there.
The blu-ray set is a two-disc set. The extras are on the second disc and include a set tour, a featurette where the cast answers questions about the season, and a gag reel. All totaled, the bonus content runs around a half an hour, give or take. By the third season, the show had found its footing and did not deviate much from what made it successful. While Sheldon, Leonard, and Penny are the show's focus, the writers give all the characters good material to work with, and all the actors do a great job. So, if you liked the first two seasons, this is worth watching.
