There is some discussion about his profession in the drive to the restaurant. Mary makes comments about the bible and the great flood and Alfred laughs, Sheldon says she is not joking and Alfred talks about some studies of ancient cultures that believe in a flood. The are kind of starting to flirt here

Yes they did toasts and all. I don't remember much, just Penny saying she was glad she finally said yes after all of Leonard's proposals and then Bevs toast was what made Alfred get mad and leave early

The dinner was not a welcome for the parents it was definitely for Penny and Leonard. Howard was basing his paranoia off of movies he watched like ET and Jurrasic World. Bernie said you know they are not documentaries but Howard said that's all he knows. Raj starts laughing and Howard says do you think it's funny, raj replies no but Jurrassic World was so terrible it was funny. Raj later looks up the department that sent the email which was the Dept of Acquisitions and said they probably just want to give you money and then Howard thinks maybe it's another country pretending to be the USA Very good! When they were walking up the stairs Alfred asked Leonard he is happy he found someone so nice and loving and then stopped and said "how did you do that" When Penny saw Alfred she ran over and gave a hug and said it was nice to see him again

Also to add/follow up on the summary, I don't know if there was an "off camera redo wedding" or just dinner celebrating the wedding, they talked about a ceremony in the beginning but if you follow the timeline in the rest of the episode, it seems like they went right to the dinner reservations from the apartment. Also the government/Air Force is just inquiring about the project, and raj thinks it's to give them money, but Howard is paranoid they want to take over the project and they will "get him" if he doesn't allow them

You can see Michy and me when the camera pans back, behind the kid in the red white and blue sweater,,

Don't worry, worse case scenario I'll give something who else is going?

Hey guys, I wanted to add about the sets, that I really looked for any signs of anything shamy. I was trying to look for any signs of moves but the apartment looked the same and Leonard bedroom was the same minus it has covers over the furniture to protect the props. I really didn't see anything obvious different. The restaurant/ banquet didn't have a dance floor, it was all tables, pretty full, no open room to move and there was no "head table" that I saw. Not saying that it's not a wedding but it wasn't a traditional wedding set up. I also didn't see a podium or anything like that for a award banquet. The tables were all set with plates and glasses and the was a folded napkin on every seat, so it looked fancier than a typical restaurant, more of an event. Also nothing big but I forgot to mention the fake "car" was set up so prob a car scene. Also Penny's apartment was taken down I believe completely.

Just did the WB tour. The sets are the Engineering lab, Leonard's bedroom, Wolowitz hallway and kitchen, s and l apartment, banquet hall/restaurant set up for a reception with orange napkins folded on the table(not sure if that is the wedding colors) and apartment lobby

Thanks! I went spoiler free and I haven't been on the forum much but I might go back to spoilers right before the taping to "catch up" and then to talk about the finale

I also have tickets to the WB Studio tour for Sunday, so if there is any new sets I can let you guys know. I would write this in the spoiler page but I am spoiler free for now and I dont want to see any spoilers

I was able to get tickets as well! It was a pain in the but today, lots of crashing and error messages ETA: Thank you to Maddie, dana1010 and kazzie for your help

This is hard for me too, mainly because Amy had such a strained relationship with her own family and growing up she didn't have a warm loving accepting environment. I would have loved for Amy to find that loving family with Meemaw. I am hoping with the parallels between "Meemaw and PopPop" and "Sheldon and Amy", that they will have that relationship and it will bloom into that, maybe even at the wedding or a future episode. Or maybe Amy and Mary will bond over it ...maybe Mary and her mom don't have a good relationship and Mary likes that Amy stood up against Meemaw. Either way I am soooo excited to see the episode and more excited for whats to come. Also, thank you to everyone who went to the taping for sharing your experience!

That would awful I think it will be a Sheldon episode but I am thinking not a Shamy episode. The writers have kept the family members away from Amy for some reason, Sheldons mom, Leonards mom etc.

I cant believe they beat Game of Thrones! Congrats BBT!

I think Leonard said it best "If they didn't want to be yelled at by crazy nerds, they shouldn't have started a sci-fi channel." In this case a tv show. I think Bill and other producers can handle the crazy fans and generally don't take it personally. There are some evil people out there. That said, as always Michy, Kaz, Maria, Maddie and everyone who provided the report and insights thank you! I am so sad I missed this taping.
