But hasn’t he been “read the riot act” before? I have no doubt that after 12.24 Sheldon went back to the “same old, same old” setting of demeaning, belittling and intellectually demeaning those closest to him.

The lovely Cuoco sisters!

This was such a fun and rather sweet post! Also, thank you @luminous for keeping the spirit alive here! I appreciate your posts so much!

Many people, including celebrities are going “dark” . Some just for today, others from now to June 7 (I believe). Others are leaving social media for other indeterminate periods of time. Not sure about Kaley and Karl.

It was an unnecessary Sheldon love-fest....my opinion only.

Now, when all has been said and all has been done, I’m looking at Penny and parenthood as a journey of development. Like other things, becoming a mother was something far in the future for her. After some scares in her youth, she settled into a “yeah, someday” mentality, which suited her. Until. Until she started thinking. About marrying Leonard. About changing careers. When she thought about how they may no longer be “young and fun” I think her considerations went into overdrive. A way to stay young may be not becoming a parent. A change in her view has occurred again now that she is expecting. We did not get to see the process, but I for one imagine a lovely and loving long conversation between Penny and Leonard, where all is laid out. All is said between them and what their future holds. They always do seem to arrive there at the point of non return. Of revealing things to themselves, together, that had been hidden. That had been unsaid. The true beauty of their relationship and the totality of their love of each other was on display late in season 12. Penny’s complete support of Leonard v Beverly in episode 22 (this followed her worry, tempered support and joy and happiness for him in his professional decision and the results in episode 20) and finally their extremely evident love and devotion in episodes 23 & 24. So, to Penny, Leonard is a “veritable Mack daddy” and together, they will have “smart and beautiful babies”....

Merry Christmas and Happiest of Holidays to you all and all of those close to your hearts! Miss reading your comments and thoughts! Take care and may you have peace, love and joy in 2020!

Add my "darn it!" to the list. Sorry to be late @veejay . Hoping all is well with you and that you had a splendid day. I really miss this forum!!!!

Happy, happy @Tensor !! 🎂🎉🎊🎁🎈
