I agree about the emo, he probably sees a massive emotional fallout ahead, that he'll have to live with. I hope they don't split up again. I know there are spoiler threads but I've been avoiding most of it and haven't read the taping reports. Some people already know this answer, so there's not as much discussion on this thread. :(

Mhhhh...this could be interesting!

My guess is that Sheldon is all to familiar with Penny's little habits & knows what she is like now & has adjusted to that, he fears he has to grow into a moping Leonard & eventually a new girlfriend with all new habits he might dislike & has to get used to...

He has grown into some sort of "relationship routine" with Penny now one could say...

Poor Howard, even getting picked on up in space

Can't wait to see this all develop!

Also am not reading spoiler threads in advance

Well, Sheldon has always disliked change from the present status quo. Even in season 3, he found it highly disagreeable and uncomfortable when Penny and Leonard broke up. And we've seen him trying to intervene in Stephanie's case. So it doesn't sound all that surprising. It will be interesting to see it play out.. Sheldon out of his comfort zone, or Sheldon having to struggle with secrets and lies, is always hilarious!

Well its been a quick summer, cant believe its basically fall now and time for the new season. And..... I just got season 5 DVD today. I need to get watchin! This first episode sounds like it could be very good. I just hope we dont ride the "Lenny" rollercoaster all season again. But I cannot wait to see Howard in space!

This has to be the showdown episode between Leonard and Penny, or pretty darn close. It's the first time I have had any interest in a Lenny storyline for ages. Finally we get an answer! I want to see how they are going to play it, if they keep these two together. There have been posts by other members who suggest they will (and have read spoilers) but I don't want the details. I want to see if Penny can convince me she's slicking around. Leonard deserves better than what he's getting.

Season 6 will be the pinnacle time for Lenny. From day one when Leonard started pining after this girl, to the point where he has succeeded in getting her this far. Only to find out she has a couldn't care less attitude towards him. He's no longer happy to keep his mouth shut. It's a big moment for the show.

Could it be that due to his relationship with Amy and the new feelings he is starting to feel, Sheldon is actually feeling compassion for his roommate and just doesn't want to see him hurt. This could be another major step for Sheldon caring about others.

I hope it works because I will be totally disgusted with another L/P break-up. Besides it is obvious they love each other. Just acknowledge it already and move on to some comedy. Let the new relationship Sheldon/Amy have all the angst for a change.

Yes, this looks like the final decision episode of the series for Leonard and Penny. It will have the three main characters determine the end game for the canonical couple. After all the angst that they have put the fans though for five years, we get to see where they are heading since I don't think the fans would tolerate another loop through the old "break up/make up" routine.

They don't have to always break up, they could just have disagreements like normal couples do. As i have said before I think there would be more comedy if Penny and Leonard stayed together but each tried to do things the other liked, say for instance Leonard agreeing to go to a yoga session with Penny, and Penny to a Science Fair with Leonard, isn't that what the show is about that this girl comes into their lives and they each learn from each other.

Yes, please. This. They could get a lot of comedy mileage out of it and still keep some tension in the relationship because they're really very different people. But enough with the "does she love him or not" nonsense that they keep trying to drag out - she obviously does, just move on to making their actual relationship funny!
