Spoilers Leonard And Penny Season 7 *spoiler* Discussion Thread

No, no, no. Remember episode 100 when she day-dreamed about marrying him because she was pregnant, at the end of the episode.

I think our lighter than air friend was making fun of all the hysteria surrounding misinterpretations of various taping reports.

Penny's been Elizaed, by Leonard Higgins.

Does that mean we'll hear Leonard and Sheldon singing?

Sorry SRAM. Mocking self. But they could go there sometime. They seem to practicing enough. And good on 'em. Hold off on the babies for a while yet and keep rehearsing. LOL.

Maybe for episode 200.

Maybe for episode 200.

That is probably the engagement episode.

[Occam's Chainsaw]

Maybe 150 for the engagement.

Maybe 150 for the engagement.

The 15th episode this year would be 150. Last year the 15th episode was telecast on Feb 7. Right in the Feb sweeps. Hmmmmmmmmmm.

[ArmyGirl]

I think that episode (150th) is taken by Shamy most likely.

Take an extra week off in January and the 15th episode is right around Valentine's Day. "Maybe next year" indeed...

But, and i say this with love, the highlight will be Amy taking off her cardigan. And Sheldon not being totally comfortable with that. Meanwhile by that time L/P will have semi-broken up three times and Leonard will have the drinking problem. I do want the brother, Jesse, to turn up too this season. Maybe that can be a highlight.

No, Leonard doesn't have a drinking problem, Jesse shows up and gets Leonard hooked on meth.

Braking Bad Crossover!!!!!

I to would like to see the kind of scientist aka chemist that is Penny's brother.  (Am I correct in thinking Jesse is Penny's brother?) 

 

If Amy takes off her cardigan, I don't know how Shelbot will handle all that hotness. lol

well, more "Jesse" than Jesse. Which might make Molly laugh, because Leonard is a bit of a "Jessie", in Glasgow, anyway, I think, Here Leonard might be a bit of a "Sheila", to those in the sports bar.

btw it waa nice to have that callback. AND ive always wondered how they stood outside Penny's window at that long ago party.

Amy taking off her cardigan will likely fry Sheldon brain for a few minutes, then he'll try to reason around it as a homo novus should.

I did wonder why Sheldon made such a big deal about Penny and booze in the first episode. Ever since Penny and Leonard got back together, I don't think she's had more than a couple of drinks. Yet Sheldon commented on her problems with handling Leonard being away and other challenges without booze. Is this to imply that she was in the sauce while Leonard was gone?

She probably spent the entire time catering to Sheldon's needs...wouldn't you be in the sauce?

[hamerman55]

Having her brother come to visit would allow for a call back to the first season. The guys could be sitting around with Penny and her brother, and ask how he makes meth. They then go into full nerd mode as when they were setting up Penny's entertainment system and design a whole new imrpoved way for him to cook up his product. Her brother could be hoovering it up, while Penny looks on in horror.

Oh Yeah!

To reveal ... the cardigan under that?

 

Season 7 episode 1

Amy: Not my guy. I caught him staring at my rack. It’d be nice to be with a man who wants to know what’s underneath my cardigan. FYI, it’s another cardigan.

That was one thing that was weird about the first episode, it applied that Sheldon and Penny spent more time together than Sheldon and Amy, which just doesn't seem right or make sense after all that happened with the Shamy in season 6. Penny was almost too friendly with Sheldon, so much so that Amy should have been a little upset and Leonard a little confused. The second episode they seemed to retreat from all that Penny/Sheldon friendliness and make it more like it was before he left.

Her heavy drinking seems to be a thing of the past and really mostly associated with the period they were broken up.

I still so badly want the writers to come up with a plot that puts Penny living with Leonard for a few episodes. Her and Sheldon would be at each other's throats and poor Leonard would have to be peacemaker. Penny would have three strikes in 24 hours.

I'm sure Penny received the full benefits of being the poor sap lucky person to live closest to Sheldon and thus being forced honored to make his life easier. Amy should be glad she lives as far away as she does.  I wonder how many times Penny begged asked if Amy could move into Leonard's room over the summer?

I totally don't want any kind of scenario like this happening.  I feel that Penny/Sheldon arguing is old news and a repeat of the same old.  I want more for Leonard than playing stuck between the those two --- it's been this way for over six years and I do believe the writers should come up with something better for Leonard to do.

I think it would change up the dynamic between the three of them enough to be worth it. Penny's only power in dealings with Sheldon has been that she could physically harm him or call his mother, with her moving in with Leonard she would become a signatory of the Roommate Agreement and suddenly she and Leonard would have the power to override Sheldon on most things. I could see them doing it, even if only for an episode so Sheldon decides that having Amy move in to Leonard's room while Leonard moves in to Penny's apartment would be a preferable alternative.

I believe Sheldon would just change the Roommate Agreement even more in his favor.  Sheldon is to selfish to let Leonard and Penny come out on top by doing the right thing when it comes to voting /Roommate Agreement he would just whine and whine until they give in just to have some peace.  For me that isn't comedy when Sheldon gets his way on everything.

Yeah but I don't think you are fully taking into account the pull that Amy might have in that situation.  She often takes sides with Penny and she seems to be one of the people Sheldon actually listens to.  It would also give her an opportunity to move into Penny's apartment, thus bringing them closer together.

 

I think the main point is that for the show to maintain it's dynamic, Leonard and Sheldon have to live together.  I just can't see it any other way.  So it leaves limited options for Leonard and Penny.  And I don't think that Leonard would really want to leave Sheldon alone unless he was sure that Sheldon would be okay.  Sheldon might be annoying (and I don't know how much I could personally stand of the character) BUT he is Leonard's friend ...
