SRAM Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I think I figured out why the director didn't catch it. He saw it, but didn't want to change it because this way it gives all the Shenny's a sliver of hope. After all, it was awkward because Penny wasn't "comfortable" with Leonard's arm around her, because obviously she wanted to be with Sheldon, not Leonard. And she only invited Leonard into her apartment because she couldn't stand that godawful cello playing, and it was the only way to stop it. As for the last scene, Penny's just practicing her hot and smart look on Leonard, so she has perfected the look when she goes for the more difficult to fool Sheldon. See how devious the director and writers have become? OMG, you cracked the code. Love your reasoning. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Trayne Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 I think the episode when they get married (if they ever do that is) is going to be the point at which I go back to season 1 and marvel in awe at how far they've come. I honestly think that Penny made a good choice :D, I don't care if people bash Leonard, the world needs more people like him to replace the plauge of douchebags out there. The fact that Penny gave Leonard a chance and discovered how much better he was those other 'hot guys' makes me hope that it has somehow inspired some people who watch the show to think twice about someone despite their outside appearance. Especially those girls who still refuse to date anyone other than kind of guys that Penny used to date. here here. To many people in the world these days aren't just afraid to date someone outside of their "circle" they are afraid to be apart of a different one. So many people don't follow their hearts or their dreams because they are scared of what others will think and its a sad world we live in that has come to that. The L/P relationship is 100% without a doubt what originally drew me to the show. Seeing the contrast between the two characters and how different they are but how compatible they are at the same time is almost mesmerizing... to me at least. They really do pull it off well in the show and while there may be bumps and parts we don't always like but I think they are doing really well now and this episode has only pulled the knot tighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogravitasatall Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Do you think they could have done this over the shoulder with two cameras? As well as containing some clever coding (exposed by @Tensor), it's also sort of a nod to the pillow talk closeup scenes. But I don't think we will ever see a booted foot outside the bedclothes. Holy crap on a cracker, I'd laugh at that! Please Mr Lorre and Mr Prady, please. For the season end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensor Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Do you think they could have done this over the shoulder with two cameras? ...it's also sort of a nod to the pillow talk closeup scenes. I really kinda wished direction would have allowed them to take their time and get comfortable on the couch. It's a very sweet moment, that would have been sweeter, IMO, by allowing the to "snuggle" for a few seconds to give a better physicality to the moment.

Nogravitasatall Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 There should be more coming around, maybe with less preceding drama. Just to signal that things are good, but still to serve the story. The boots comment really killed me. I wonder if they added that in post? Also I think this one might have run long so maybe they had a lot to fit in. IDK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRAM Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Please give us a short scene with Penny in bed or coming from the bedroom, with Leonard, with the glasses and boots on. She also needs to tell Leonard he was awesome. Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idrive65 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 It occurs to me that Leonard must be feeling a little less self-conscious about his height if Penny is wearing boots again. One of his issues early on was her towering over him in heels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of his issues early on was her towering over him in heels. I don't remember, did Leonard ever say he didn't like it when Penny was taller than him. When in bare feed isn't she a hair shorter than him. I know a guy that is about Leonard's height and he always dated and married girls that were 3-5 inches taller than him. He really liked taller girls and they all thought he was cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was part of the Beta Test Initiation, one of the things on the list of 'Penny's bugs' that Leonard gave to her was not to wear such tall shoes because he didn't want people to think that he was "out for a walk with his mommy."

BlackWhiteRose Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) You´re right. Penny mentioned it towards Leonard that he wrote this in the Penny "bug" report in the episode " The Beta Test Initiation" . So Penny can only wear her high heels when she´s going out with her girls Amy and Bernadette. Whatever. She loves Leonard and he loves her and they booth can live with the little tics from each other. Edited January 7, 2013 by BlackWhiteRose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really remember but i feel like a lot of the things on the list were kind of ridiculous lol I think that list was another one of those one episode type deals. It would be sort of cute if they were going all dressed up to a dinner party at Leonards work and when she sees Leonard looking good in a TUX and she is in high heels she excuses herself and comes back with lower shoes so she is the same height as him.

Nogravitasatall Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Leonard reads out her hand written list and says something like " I can kiss more quietly . I thought it was showing passion ( or something ) but if it comes over as juicy and weird who wants that" then he says," My eyebrows are stupid? What's wrong... Never mind, its right here..." as he flips the page. In the meantime Penny has skipped off to find her flats, so he "won't feel like he is out with his mommy" I have not checked a transcript so if I am wrong then that itself is hilarious to me and I wonder what he did say.

Penny: All right. Terrific. Well, let me just go find a pair of shoes that aren’t so tall. We wouldn’t want you to feel like you were out for a walk with your mommy. Leonard: Thank you. Penny: Yeah. Oh. Here’s my list for you, right there. Leonard: All right, fair enough. I certainly can be quieter when we kiss. I thought it was an expression of passion, but if it’s coming across as juicy and weird, who wants that? Uh, uh, I’m sorry, can you be more specific on how my eyebrows are stupid? Nah, never mind, it’s right here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl1970 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Either next weeks taping or the taping after that should be the Valentines episode. I just can't imagine the show not doing one with their being 3 couples L/P S/A and H/B. I just wonder what valentine's gift Leonard and Penny will give each other.

SRAM Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 OK, this is my last day of vacation so I spent most of my day hanging with my bird, because I have sort of been not around much during my vacation and he has been getting lonely. Well since I was home, I hate to admit this, and since Kaley was going to be on, I actually watched the Ellen show for the first time. What I thought was interesting was that Kaley brought a promo scene for the next show that I never saw before. It was a very small scene where Penny brings Leonard some makeup sponges and states he has a lot of makeup, better than her makeup, and like a girlfriend would, tries to take some. What is interesting is what Leonard says (not a quote), I LOVE YOU but you can't have the makeup, and Penny doesn't make any deal of him starting with ILY. It is a small scene and I thought it was interesting Kaley brought that one to show on Ellen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
