Hi guys, I'm from Australia but was recently in the US travelling and happened to go to the filming of this episode. I really enjoyed the episode but the show does not screen in Australia (yet - I'm hoping). Does anyone have any bright ideas on how I could get my hands on a copy of this episode? Thanks for your help, Cathy

I love the show, but I was hoping you folks might be able to help me with something that is really bugging me.... What is the meaning of the symbol on Sheldon's shirt in this episode? It's a circle with horizontal lines above and below. It reminds me of something in the computer games Myst and Riven.... Help!!!!

The Nielsen ratings were delayed for a long time yesterday so we are quite late in bringing these to you. On to the ratings ... they are quite astonishing. 6.1/9 rating in households, up .6 from How I Met Your Mother. 3.8/9 in the 18-49 demographic, up .4 from How I Met Your Mother. 9.675 million viewers, up 800,000 viewers from How I Met Your Mother.

I am looking for a word that Sheldon uses/explains the definition in the episode. I think he said that it means something like: taking an arguement to it's most absurb conclusion. Any Ideas??

Great ratings, sadly rendered meaningless by this stupid strike. I guess we'll just have to hope for a miracle if they bring the show back after the strike, that most people will still tune in.

@Sheltopia: meh, I thought the Halo references were pretty cool. "It's raining you" was pretty clever as well as Sheldon's justification of the HD element of Halo 3.

The Age Of Conan ep was the best with regards to making references to video games imo.

Ok, so it has always been a curiosity of mine to see if Sheldon's timing is correct in this episode during his announcement that it is 8:06pm and then again that it is 8:08pm.

Using a stop watch and an onscreen timer, the time frame between the two statements is actually only 0:43 secs.

8:06 kicks in at 0:48secs then it's 8:08 at 01:31secs

Ok, I'm done now. I'm going to go and lie down.

Penny has come over to escape from her girlfriend. Harold hears that girlfriend is "available" and leaves to go be with her. Penny plays Halo with the guys and winds up staying all night. In the morning while Penny is sleeping in Sheldon's spot, Sheldon tells Leonard that "every Saturday morning..." However, later in the show the guys go to ask Penny to play Halo because Wednesday night is Halo night.

Sheldon is wearing his Monday pajamas.

Also, Raj is talking to Leonard when Penny comes in. He continues to talk to Leonard even though Penny is in the room.
