Disgusted Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) No problem, just started it out of boredom since i saw the Shamy thread was up! And i have no idea about the spoilers. I guess if most of the people that visit here are okay with spoilers then they probably will be allowed. There probably should be a separate thread for spoilers and the discussion thereof.

ArmyGirl Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Is this thread for spoilers for Leonard, Penny, and Lenny only ? Is the other thread for the discussion of Leonard, Penny, and Lenny only? So how are we going to work the two threads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disgusted Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 The way it has worked in the past is that the majority of the discussion takes place on the unspoiled thread, those who like spoilers just have to read both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyGirl Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Okay, thanks. I wasn't around when the thread first begun, so I didn't know how they work. Thanks again for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disgusted Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 The taping reports won't be posted directly here, probably in one of the Shamy threads, unless someone links to it. So, you'll have to go there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripper Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Many people do seem to prefer having a separate spoiler thread, so I think this is a good idea. I have added a new spoiler marker for these threads and I've applied it to this thread. I can only apply one marker to each thread, so this ship thread doesn't have the 'Safe Zone' marker but it does still apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachelshamyfan Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I think its been mentioned the taping reports will be in a separate thread and that it will be locked and people can discuss it in their ship threads or the s7 spoiler thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripper Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I think its been mentioned the taping reports will be in a separate thread and that it will be locked and people can discuss it in their ship threads or the s7 spoiler thread Yes, if that goes to plan then I guess we'll need two taping report threads. One for reporters and one for people to comment on reports. Unless people wanted to keep discussion of the reports in the ship threads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachelshamyfan Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I guess there could be separate thread for us to comment in also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensor Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 A Separate thread makes sense, as there is always some dicussion of getting tickets, behind the scenes info, if people saw each other when several members go, etc. Thngs like that don't really fit in the shipping threads.

ArmyGirl Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Will CBS and Time Warner Cable still be doing battle when the fall season begin and will affect TBBT ratings? http://tv.yahoo.com/news/cbs-lose-400k-per-day-time-warner-cable-011332237.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamerman55 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) A one hour premier. Pretty cool. I would speculate that they will have a lot more Leonard on to fill out the time, unless the goal is to get him home on the first night. It doesn't make sense to me that they would do an hour unless the writers need Leonard back. Considering how easily they make a Leonard-centered episode more about Sheldon (i. e. the season six finale) one would think that they could leave Leonard out of the picture to make more room for Sheldon. So maybe this will actually involve more Leonard, after they had a chance to analyze last season's success more closely.

SRAM Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 The show had a increase in the couples personal interaction, more relationship movement and more of the girls together. The ratings were awesome, but there was some benefit from the reruns on TBS bringing in new viewers. I would think, as a business, TPTB would stick to the winning formula of last season. Why deviate and risk ruining a proven cash cow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Leonard tell her where the heavier elements come from, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why deviate and risk ruining a proven cash cow? From Malaro's hints on season 7, it looks as he will extend it in a complimentry direction to season 6. More about career and science and less about relationship drama as in season 4 and 5. The fans responded greatly to seeing the gang happier in their personal lives and I'll bet we get more of the same as they explore their professional endevors. They are not about to ruin a proven cash cow, as you said. I think this will be a big year for Leonard and his advancements as a physicist.

Nogravitasatall Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 New thought. He can tell her where all the gold in the universe comes from, when they get the engagement ring(s). Its a beautiful story. Fred Hoyle's one of the authors, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogravitasatall Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Quick show of hands. Any one perturbed by Leonard having good time while away, without Penny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensor Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Quick show of hands. Any one perturbed by Leonard having good time while away, without Penny? Nope. His reaction is fairly typical. When isolated, there is a tendency to bond with those who are sharing the isolation wih you. It is also rather easy to fall into the habit of binge drinking, or even become a heavy drinker. Doesn't mean he has lost any feeling for her , just has fallen into his way of coping with the separation. Not to say TPTB can't drive it into a whole 'nother perturbing direction.

3ku11 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Quick show of hands. Any one perturbed by Leonard having good time while away, without Penny? One arm up, one arm down Leonard is isolated in the group he has probably bonded with to deal with missing Penny, and it is purley circumstancial. I mean Penny rang him when he was partying haha. But at the same time do feel sorry for Penny the impression that comes across in translation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3ku11 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 No. I'd feel sorry for Leonard if Penny was on the boat partying. Why? What's the difference, it's not like Penny is the same party girl she was in the first three seasons, personally I am prob going to feel sorry for Penny based on how much she misses Leonard but thats just me.

Then getting an interesting letter from your wife. ( this was pre-Internet and Skype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because things in the Lenny relationship always seemed to favor Penny and Leonard had put up with a lot of grief. Season 6 with the appearance of Alex started to swing things more his way but to me she still has a little ways to go to "catch up". And Penny is my favorite character on the show so I'm definitely not anti-Penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
