[Spoilers]Leonard And Penny Season 8 Thread

Recommended Posts

I think there enough there to support 3 years without breaking them up. The stress of a wedding, Penny freaking out as it gets closer and the actual wedding in Season 9 really doesn't leave much time to break them up and get them back together. What actually worries me is what happens if this is one of the top shows in Season 10, what is next then?

I hope there isn't an actual break up that lasts over a protracted period of time. However, if a break up is in the writers plans just think how adorable the getting back together scenes would be.[emoji173]️As for what happens after season 10 sadly I'm pretty sure the show will come to an end then.

Still wouldn't like a breakup tho. That will just take away all the cuteness of the last 2 seasons and would open up a whole lot of questions like the engagement thing and why go there in the first place or were they just settling for each other, would they be better apart etc. I want the whole nine yards lol, cuddles, living together, doing alone things. Movie, out for dinners discussing wedding plans, disagreeing on wedding arrangements, the works. Just want pure loveliness and oh, sciency stuff of course. (@3KU11) LOL. I do think if it's still the no1 in season 10, they will have to renew it or just go out on top. I go for the latter. It's so stressful shipping L/P with all their quirks and all but that's why we love them together. Lol

I think Lenny is done with breaking up, there will be troubles, but those will be comparable with Howardette's in the last 2 seasons.

So, assuming lenny gets married in s8, who is gonna be the best man and maid of honor?

The usual suspects, or are we gonna be surprised?

I say the usual suspects. More sure of Sheldon being best man. Amy as Maid of honor simply because Amy thinks of Penny as her "bestie" (and even calls her that most of the time) and I get the sense friction between Penny & Bernie at times. Plus it can easily match couples up. Shamy as BM & MoH, howardette & ramily as the rest of the wedding party.

No surprise there. It's got to be Sheldon, it's only logical. They are best friends as well.

Army probably but I do think it should be bernie to square things up.

I don't see another Lenny breakup; however, multi-episode "strains" (like we saw in "Hesitation"/"Occupation") would not be out of the question. Given this show's history, Lenny's road to the altar definitely ain't gonna be a smooth one. :)

 

and nor should it be...its a comedy program and there is comedy in the banter with any relationship....nothing to earth shattering, but of course hiccups along the way.

 

And I'm excited to enjoy the ride!!!

like I've said, I don't see a wedding till season 9 anyway

That's true BBT aint a Romantic Comedy, don't know how to exactly classify the genre of comedy, but it ain't a standard rom com that's for sure haha. BBT is unique because most sitcoms have one nerd or egghead, BBT is show all about eggheads and their hottie neighbour, who has now been fully integrated into the group, as Howard would say "One of us, One of us, One of us...". So I expect a few drama for the sake of comedy, when Monica and Chandler were engaged they went through a lot of drama, but delt with it as a couple and it was still funny. It's funny Leonard and Penny have become more Monica and Chandler since Season 5 then Ross and Rachel as of late, you know they work on their relationship a lot more now as it was never perfect, a work in progress. So they make Penny Bridezilla haha, or Penny and Leonard may ditch Wedding Plans and get hitched in Vegas, someone better tell Penny it is a real wedding though haha.

Oh yep i had an image of County Hall, so thats why i thought they got married, so techniquley i was correct! Haha. Give me a break it was three years ago lol, i dont have Bbt marathons on repeat in my head :p

You don't ?!!!!! Are you sure you're qualified to be here? I thought having marathons in your head (or at least on your computer) were a requirement. Well that and having no life outside of here.

You would think based on the in-depth analysis that goes on here but no haha. I do have all BBT dvd's bar S6 and S7, and I have watched since 2008 (when it first aired in NZ). And started becoming a big fan in 2009-2010 because of Lenny in S3. So I guess the show is very familiar to me as Friend's was so it is natural to just analyse off the top of my head lol. Yeah it's like that you have your RL (Real Life), and life in The Big Bang Theory Fandom haha, but of course their are other fandoms too with other tv shows, pop stars, actors e.t.c. So it's a common occurance I guess.

I like the idea of Penny with short hair. Its refreshing. And it shouldn't need a reason other than she felt like making a change. But if it can feed into getting good work, then yay!

Remember 'Felicity'.

All she has to wear are those boots and glasses and he won't even see her hair.

Especially if that's all she's wearing.

Hmmm maybe cutting her hair is all she needed to getting a break, (Damn it S1 Penny what were you thinking with that medium length cut, don't you know short length is the current trend!). I always thought ever since Barb Sublim, when Penny revealed the casting exec's thought she was too much of a type, that she was typed cast. Obviousley seeing she was cast in NCIS and that play in S6, she can act, so that is not the question when it comes to her level of talent. It more comes down to being a "working actress" or "breaking out". A lot of it comes down to luck, I think these days with social media, I don't think breaking in is a thing, it is kinda dieing art. These days it is even more of a one in a million shot when it comes to breaking in the industry. Maybe finding work as a indi actor, finding small roles in tv shows or movies, or even one get a paycheck, just so she knows 1. Sense of Autonomy and 2. Moving to Pasadena in 2007 was worth it, even in S5 she was going to leave until she got that audition. Kinda tricky for Penny though, a very very pretty girl with the hopes of stardom, with no real calling card or distinction to her. The fact she lived with Kurt for four years shows her naivity, she had no backup plan, now she is at a crossroads in her life no choice but to stick to her lot. But who knows Serial Apist could become a cult hit, I think it already as outside The Big Bang Theory haha, maybe Lenny go on vaca or CC and she gets noticed by some geeks.

Interesting, new hair, new Penny, I like it. With her and Leonard spending the whole summer alone on the fourth floor they are either going to very close or hate each other, I'm betting very close.

If they've spent the whole summer without Sheldon, I can't see them ever living with him again. Either Sheldon's living solo, or Amy (or maybe Stuart [Ha]) will be his new room mate.

Lenny without Sheldon, well what do you know all the time in the world to make out on the "spot" to their little hearts desire. Leonard can whistle all he wants, wheres Penny paintball gun lol. As much as everyone loves Sheldon, I am sure Lenny are having the time of their life on the Fourth Floor, I am invisioning parties and so what, Lenny have one of those classic slow dances and dance the night away.

Hmmm yeah either Sheldon gets another care taker role, or he lives alone. I vote alone, he needs to rely on himself, and be self independent. Esepcially when it comes to his emotions he needs to work it out by himself, instead of running to Leonard or Penny all the time. Obviousley Penny and Sheldon are a lot closer then say Leonard and Amy, so I do agree in some regards Amy is better off getting advice from Raj or Bernadette as they are not as close.

I like the fact the writers made the relationship has come full circle in season 7. Penny is now the Reacher and Leonard is the Settler. This didn't happen with just the engagement, it has been brewing all season long. it started with their first date where they try the Bata/alpha test. It was Penny who called Leonard in the middle of the night.

 

It will be interesting how the writers handle various arguments between them in season 8. Oh there will be more than a few.

I've gotta disagree about Leonard 'settling' for Penny. I think, all things considered, that they both bring things to the relationship. Now if Leonard had gone on to marry Leslie Winkle, he'd have been settling. I didn't see any real affection there on either side.

Um skull Penny was disgusted when Leonard suggested making out in Sheldon's spot in 7'15 so why would they do it with Sheldon AWOL?

Well in S3 Penny suggested to Leonard they should make out on Sheldon's spot, so she hasen't always been disgusted at the concept haha.

If they want to convince Sheldon to leave, they could just give him a list of places in the Apt. where they've made love. He'll be across the hall or somewhere else before the list could hit the floor.

 

You know if he is so freaked out, he could move upstairs, remember Alicia, writers could easily say it's available. Sheldon living alone up their in bliss, still as big as 4a, so nothing changes. Remember in S2 they showed the guys up their with Alicia, so it could work.

That's gold, eirwin and could plausibly happen in the show too. With Sheldon away, they probably have tried out a few new spots, if they haven't been interrupted and caught a break, and given how he reacted to his mum desecrating one of Ethan Allens finest sofas, this could be a funny way to encourage him to consider his options.

There's no way there would be enough room (not to mention the door directions would be all wrong) for another apartment "A" in the Studio. And the changeover from 4A to 5A would simply take too much time.

Hmmmmmmm, I wonder if they would turn his train engines around before using his bed?

Yeah I think they well keep things the way they are. But with Status Quo being the finale, clearly things well change. I think that change well be in the summer Lenny being alone, Leonard well want to fully move in with Penny now, so prob L and P in 4B.
