Sheldon is the classic absent minded professor who is a genius but doesnt understand common sense and doesnt really have social skills while Leonard is a bit the opposite, with more social skills and slightly less "intelligence."
yeah this show is definitely the best sitcom CBS has right now, and has had in a long time. before that they were banking on the Charlie Sheen Show (Two and a Half Men), and that show was good at first but now its gotten pretty stupid. Big Bang however is awesome. geeks rule.
yeah good ep. i noticed when he went to the Indian guy's house, its the exact same set as Leonard and Sheldons apartment, just stuff moved around a little bit. after he counts Catwomen he starts counting X-Men!!
Stuff like "you spoke to him from the bathroom door", "you pronounced the T in often", and such. And the most notable one "you said you hate trains". Crazy.
i love the part where Sheldon was playing Mario 64 on his laptop, and that they actually mentioned that he was using an emulator!! i was surprised that they went out of their way to say he was using an emulator. also, it had real sound effects from the game, where as most TV shows cant be arsed to do that.
freakin hilarious how Sheldon was using a bunch of slang all the time in the episode! he said more funny things than he may have said in any other ep to date. the best line of the whole show is the very last line, he goes "Sheldon Cooper FOR THE WIN!" because he helped Leonard's relationship. i love Sheldon!
Sheldon: they took the PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360, NES, SNES, N64, Wii, DS... Leonard: we like games. Sheldon: oh thats right, games! Halo, Halo 2, Halo 3, Call of Duty, COD2, COD3, Rock Band, Legend of Zelda, LOZ Ocarina of Time, LOZ Twilight Princess, Final Fantasy 1-9, Super Mario World, Super Mario Galaxy, Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympics.......and Ms. Pac Man.
thats about the hardest ive laughed at that show!! i wonder if CBS had to pay royalties to the companies that own those games or if it would be considered free advertising?
you wont get most of the jokes if you arent a nerd or dont understand the nerd culture. there are several subtle things that only nerds will pick up on. so thats a lot of the appeal. also just how its not like most other sitcoms helps, most sitcoms are about friends talking about the last girl theyve slept with.
degrades nerds? oh please, nerds degrade themselves voluntarily mostly. its all in good fun. things i really like are the in jokes, like the comic book references that most folks wouldnt get (the Superman argument of whether he could get his Kryptonian costume dirty or not), occasional internet meme reference, and how they play video games all the time.
plus, the mobius strip joke is the best chicken crossing the road variation in existence!
lol yeah whats funny is .org redirects to that site, but .com does not, its actually someone who said that Wil Wheaton is cool. which is funny cause Sheldon said he owned .net, .org and .com. oh well 2 out of 3 aint bad. still awesome. think im gonna get a Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock shirt.
and i dont care that much about Penny and Leonard breaking up, the show is pretty much about Sheldon anyway.
so THAT'S what happened to the elevator! they must live in a super piss poor apartment building if the elevator has been broken for 7 years. that or the owner just doesnt care.
I doubt they're in a poor neighborhood (they work for a university; that's good money in itself; just look at all the shit they buy, haha), just that the elevator is probably beyond repair considering it blew up. lol. I mean have you seen their apartment? It's practically a goddamn suite at the Trump World Tower compared to the 3-bedroom dump apartment I lived in.
if its beyond repair and the building owner has enough money then why dont they just install a new elevator? or hell why doesnt Sheldon pay for a new one? he apparently has money coming out of his ears, after that one ep where he loans Penny money and you see how he hides money all over the apartment. you would think everyone that lived there would be demanding it get fixed.
no they live on the 4th floor obviously since their apartments are 4A and 4B. they walk up 3 flights.
and yeah i know Sheldon wouldnt pay for it even though he is pretty much guilty. well, Leonard more so since he created the "bomb" in the first place but Sheldon put it on the elevator.
i doubt Dumb Guy has the mental capacity to play Halo TBH. i mean he thought they were trying to blow up the moon with their laser for gods sake.
and that female Sheldon, if they plan on having her as a recurring character, Jim Parsons definitely needs to sit down with her and give her some coaching on how he plays Sheldon so she can somewhat mimic it, because she was just not really on the ball in terms of comic timing and getting all the quirks down. i know this is probably the first time she has done a role like this so im not saying she sucked, but she could have done better.
the laugh track is annoying yes (even though they swear to god they have a live audience, who knows), i just try to tune that out and pay attention to the characters.
theres no way they could have planned for the paper to get stuck on his head, that was just a brilliant coincidence that they had to go with. love when Sheldon was like "oh friggity frack!"
they should add Amy and Zach in as regular cast members, and maybe Howards girlfriend too. they all add so much to the show with Amy being a female version of Sheldon and Zach being an even stupider male version of Penny. plus it naturally gives them more backstories to explore and more characters to do more varied things with.
i couldnt believe any of the audience members didnt get up and leave or anything at the panel when they were bickering with each other. they just sat there listening like nothing was wrong.
yeah shes totally gonna dump Howard if he doesnt grow up. wonder if she would start dating Leonard considering Raj's sister comes and goes and i doubt they would keep up a LDR.
what would be funny is if Raj and Penny conspired against Leonard and whats her name (Pria?) and acted like they were dating to get back at them.
true dat. they definitely need to have those 3 hang out together more, possibly with Sheldon again or maybe adding a 4th guy to the group as they seem to be creating these little groups of 4 that hang out together (the 4 main guys, the 4 main girls if you count Pria, and then these guys).
i dont like them turning Penny into a whore like they did but it could be the catalyst to get her back together with Leonard. they were obviously also wanting to go for a huge shock factor which they certainly accomplished, though its not the good kind of shock IMO.
Raj is a dick now, but still manages to be funny. its like they are trying to figure out what they want with his character. for a while it seemed like they were making him gay, now they turned him into a douche. im not necessarily against him being that sort of character, but sleeping with Penny just took it too far. what i think should happen is if/when Leonard and Penny get back together, they should move in together in Penny's apartment, and keep Sheldon and Raj in the other one because honestly it was pretty funny having Raj live there instead, maybe hell be able to stand up to Sheldon's nitpicking about every detail where Leonard didnt, which could add some more funny moments.
i think the writers probably havent decided for sure if they want them to have done it or not and will wait a bit to gauge the reaction of fans, but using what TLA said about Sheldon not hearing as their way to get out of it if they decide to not have it be real. also the fact that they were both wasted could aid in the writers explaining it away.
but theres also the possibility that it really did happen. either way it made for arguably the best cliffhanger so far of the season finales.
oh balls, i guess my Tivo didnt record the first ep, i thought the chair one was the first ep and wondered why they never talked about Penny and Raj. guess ill just go on Hulu or something. thanks, 21st century.
Has Sheldon accepted the Shamy status or was it just overlooked by the writers?
the writers are good, they dont usually miss details. im sure it was there on purpose. i think Sheldon might be starting to like her more than a friend, though he'd never admit it. either that or he wasnt listening or it flew over his head.
Sheldon basically IS the show. similar to how Jack Sparrow IS Pirates of the Caribbean, the other characters have their moments but he's the major reason most people watch it.
Great ep. The end part at Wil's party was easily the best end scene ever on BBT. I was rolling when it ended! Brent Spiner replaced Wil on Sheldon's list LMFAO!
They could easily have Wil do something else to put him back on the list as Sheldon is really fickle about things like that.
he would spend a year or whatever exercising, working out, etc until he was deemed fit enough to do it. i dont think he ever gave a time frame of when it was going to happen.
ah my bad. well he will have to work his ass off if he wants to even have a chance at passing physical. in fact, they might decide to write in that he gets passed up for that reason, gets really depressed and considered calling off the wedding.
