Yeah it’s good to rant once in a while LOL Regarding their first wedding, I was okay with the idea of them eloping,somehow I never pictured a big wedding for these two so I was fine with that. In saying that, they didn’t have to make it look so cheap and tacky ( pot pourri from the bathroom , breakfast at the stippers’ club etc). They could have had a nice sweet wedding , even in Vegas. Of course, the boat kiss revelation made everything worse. What was even harder for me was them spending their wedding night apart. So you have Penny in 4B having to process all that on her own, Sheldon rambling because he’s obviously confused and hurting and as mad as I was at Leonard , seeing him like that in his armchair made me sad. There’s a guy who messed up big time and he knows he only has himself to blame. I really felt for the three of them. For me , the writers didn’t quite get the comedy nor the drama right in this particular episode. Now for their second wedding, I really didn’t care for Sheldon’s speech , as nice as it was. What pis*ed me off was the “ weird other husband that came with the apartment” line. I mean, was that really necessary ? They spent seasons showing us the bond between the three, be it friends, brotherly/sisterly , surrogate parents and even masters/pet and now he’s her “ weird other husband''? I don’t know if was more insulting to Leonard or Amy. Again , another nice moment that had to be cheapened. As for the Shamy wedding , it was the most iconic character in the show getting married so you’d expect the writers to put out all the stops for the big event, detailed wedding planning, a bachelor’s party , a nice ceremony and a honeymoon. Why they thought Lenny deserved less than that is anybody’s guess. I think for their vegas wedding they went for an " unconventionnal TV wedding" . Not a very satisfying explanation but that's all I can think of. H/B got a nice wedding then nothing, Lenny got 2 subpar weddings then nothing, Shamy got everything, that’s really not fair.

There is a recent article in Looper that suggests that Leonard and Penny got the short end of the stick in their marriages. I agree as this has bothered me as well. Their first marriage was an elopement with the albatross of Leonard's indiscretion hanging over them (a ridiculous storyline to say the least) and then their redo marriage ceremony with all their family and friends was blighted by Sheldon's inappropriate and obnoxious behavior in the whole episode. Including his injection into their embrace when pronounced man and wife. The article goes on to say that Bernadette and Howard's wedding while not perfect did have some warm scenes. But Sheldon and Amy's wedding had very little faults with all the guests and family attending and did not have a single wrinkle. Why did the writers make their wedding so much more enjoyable than L&P. As Leonard and Penny were the core couple from the beginning they could have made their wedding much more appealing to the fans. And why didn't they show some scenes from the reception.......I guess time did not allow for it. So much for my rant

Happy Birthday @Zephon75.

Happy Birthday @Carlos! Hope you have a great day with many more to come.

Totally agree with your assessment. Shamy got the near perfect wedding and Lenny got Sheldon screwing up both weddings. The first by his childish behavior and the other poking in where he wasn't needed. Everything he said could have waited till after the wedding. Bernadette's line about weird other husband, in my opinion, was uncalled for definitely not needed. Enough of my rant, for now. I really enjoyed reading your post and as I said, I totally agree with you.

I agree with you and how you so eloquently expressed the dissatisfaction many Lenny fans had. Not only was "the weird other husband" line inappropriate but also the line Sheldon said about his mother and Leonard's father fornicating. That was totally disgraceful and had no place at a wedding. Sometimes I think the writers just throw lines out there for a quick laugh and don't think of how badly they sound.

It very understandable. The pilot, as shown to execs and test audiences, ran 32 minutes. When it was first broadcast, it was cut down to 25 minutes, which is still a bit high when they strip a show. To TBS' credit, they didn't start cutting bits and pieces of scenes until after the show ended it run on CBS. Our local channel has been cutting those bits and pieces since about season 7-8.

Happy 49th birthday to Lance Barber

He has at least 3 projects in development, these are AOK, Catching Babies, and Johnny was in London last November to discuss a joint project with Jeremy Edwards. He has been seen in LA twice this year, so I still have hope that he is working on projects.

Interesting. I don't really watch Jeopardy anymore.

Kaley and Karl's divorce appeared to have been finalized on Monday. At least the Judgement for Dissolution was entered and filed on Monday.

I just wanted to say "Happy Father's Day" to all the Dads. Enjoy your day!

We'll see. He may wait to see how it goes. Two or three years is about all she had managed so far. Some of her relationships were less than that. Who knows what the future holds for them. Only the shadow knows. I really love that line about the Shadow. 😉

Under California Law, you can get a legal separation or a divorce, you can't have both. Legal separation allows a couple to set up separate finances, set up who is responsible for debts and who gets the assets, set up child custody and support rules, pretty much everything that happens in a divorce. The difference is the divorce ends the marriage, a legal separation does not, but a legal separation does allow each individual to live separate lives. Believe it or not, there are reasons for getting a legal separation, rather than a divorce. One, if the couple isn't sure about ending the marriage. Another would be if the individuals religion or personal preference doesn't allow for divorce. Others could be, say, if only a spouse is allowed on health insurance a legal separation keep them spouses, along with Social Security or tax reasons, etc. I believe California recognizes the individuals are living separate lives after one files and the other responds to the divorce filing. Especially if it is uncontested. Now, this doesn't mean a judge couldn't have some off the wall ruling, but I don't think it's going to happen here. Once Karl's corrected response was filed, they were pretty much free to live their lives as they saw fit, while waiting for the divorce to become final.

My guess would be that he's been busy. He back from being away from the ranch for three and half months, so my guess he would be trying to get back into the swing of running his ranch. Also, while he hasn't been posting on his IG account, I believe several of the Pompanio Ranch's IG posts have been from Karl.

Well, it's sad to say, Michael Clark aka mjc45 would have celebrated a birthday today. But, we lost him in January 2017. From what I've read he was a nice person and honored member of the forum. Michael, you are sorely missed.

I tell you, my neighbors don't understand that fireworks are fired on the holiday. Not the day before or after the holiday. Maybe I'm wrong, but it's ridiculous and annoying. Oh well, hopefully they get it out of their systems.

Ranting is a great way to release tension. I've ranted a few times and I felt so much better afterwards. I totally agree with your rant. It's as if the writers just threw the Lenny relationship under the bus. I'll reframe from ranting on this subject as you have eloquently expressed your thoughts on the subject. Great Rant!

Not to mention that his right arm is stretched above him, which makes it a selfie. Still, it almost looks like a girl because of the hair and the lack of facial hair

From Broadway World Jim Parsons to Star in A MAN OF NO IMPORTANCE at Classic Stage Company This Fall Classic Stage Company announced today that Jim Parsons will lead the cast of their fall production of A Man of No Importance, portraying Alfie Byrne. Featuring a book by Terrence McNally, music by Stephen Flaherty, and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, A Man of No Importance will be the final CSC production directed by John Doyle following his tenure as Artistic Director. A Man of No Importance will begin performances on Tuesday, October 11, with opening night set for Sunday, October 30 for a limited run through Sunday, December 4. A Man of No Importance is produced by special arrangement with Tom Kirdahy and Mara Isaacs. Further casting will be announced in the coming weeks. Lynn Ahrens, Stephen Flaherty, and Terrence McNally's acclaimed musical A Man of No Importance tells the story of an amateur theatre group in 1960s Dublin and their leader, bus driver Alfie Byrne (Parsons). Determined to stage a production of Oscar Wilde's Salome despite the objections of local church authorities, Alfie confronts the forces of bigotry and shame over a love "that dare not speak its name." This evocative and award-winning musical illustrates the redemptive power of theater, love, and friendship, all for a man of seemingly no importance.

Cut to make room for more commercials. Whenever the pilot episode is shown on TBS, the initial scene at the high IQ sperm bank is always cut out.

I just watched this episode recently on the TBS network and it was not the one with the 4 guys learning to dance (unless it had been cut out). It was in fact, the one where Leonard takes Penny out to dinner and shows her the olive spinning in the glass trick.

Wonder if he had time to meet up with Kaley although that would have been highly publicized

We'll see.

I think he's more interested in being with his son and playing guitar with his friends.

It's the hairy armpit that makes me think it is Karl.

It is Karl

It is Karl !

I thought that was Karl lying in bed with Blueberry.

No, I haven't seen the post. I hope that he has moved on to find happiness for himself. It may have been a shot at Kaley's postings. Probably his way of saying that he can do it too.

Happy 42nd birthday to Melissa

Good to hear that is done. Time for both of them to move on with their lives. Haven't heard too much on her new relationship lately.

I have noticed that Karl hasn´t posted anything on Instagram since the 15th of May, about the same time Kaley started posted about Tom. This could of course just be a coincidence but it´s fun to speculate.

I don't think you're making too big of a deal here. You'd think that she would wait till the divorce is finalized showing closeness of the new relationship.

No I didn’t hear her drop an ILY back in that video, of course than doesn’t mean she hasn’t already said it in private, she has said she does not hold back when she gets into a relationship with someone. I guess I’m just surprised this is happening so fast and she isn’t formally divorced yet, though they are probably legally separated until the divorce is final, so maybe I’m just making too big a deal of it, it’s her life.

Oh well. Guess we'll have to wait.

I don’t think she did and now it’s impossible to check

You did not hear wrong, right at the end of the video he said I Love You to Kaley.

I’m probably way too interested in this, but at the end of that video clip did Tom say “I Love You” to Kaley, or am I hearing things, which is very possible. I was just curious because if that was an ILY, then things seems to be really going fast between them, again especially since her divorce is still not final.

Personally, I think it's good riddance and lots luck. He's probably just happy to be out of the limelight. I don't think he really enjoyed the media attention. He just wants to compete in the horse shows. I don't think so. This relationship is too new.

Sure does At this rate she may be married again by the end of the year and eat those words of Never Again Think the finalization of her divorce must hinge on the sale of the house as she is still living there. If she is going to Germany on July 1 to shoot a film wonder if she will move before then or probably have people move for her and just move into the new house when she returns. One thing I am curious about is how Karl is taking all this. Is he bitter seeing Kaley all lovey-dovey with her new BF or good riddance and lotsa luck.

Yeah, it doesn't appear that she's taking it slow.

And in one of them, not only is he made of cotton candy, but he's watching a version of Big Bang with Lenny as the A plot every week! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
