[Spoilers]Leonard And Penny Season 8 Thread

Recommended Posts

Hope now they got the S/P bonding thing out the way in S7. They can concentrate on L/P's engagement in the lenny centric episodes of S8, not too much bikering from them and

maybe like most people mentioned, clashes of the families, like when or where to get married and L/P getting stress but not fighting each other & teaming up against whatever is thrown at them. We need them in a stable orbit and away from the asteroid belt.

I also think that most of the bumps that Penny and Leonard encounter in their relationship will be relatively minor, and mcuh of it might have to do with their families, both his and hers.  I think that it might be pretty interested seeing Penny's Mother, sister, and brother, and Leonard's Father, brother and Sister. 

 

No matter what happens, I am looking forward to seeing it.

That could be the plots for 4-6 episodes and they could use one time actors for each of those people. I could Penny's mother asking Penny if she really intends to marry Leonard and Leonard's father liking Penny too much, cause she is a hot waitress.

My post got moved I derailed a bit I guess, but I mentioned how I hope if Bev makes an reappearance, I hope if she continues her insults. Penny stands up for Leonard. It well be interesting the dynamics when the parents get involved.

Yeah, but she is not a hot waitress anymore. She's a hot actress. :)

I watched the episode with the Lime Kiss tonight. Got me hoping Beverly would drive them to some lust-inducing drinking again! They had so much fun and were just the cutest in that scene.

 

Mmmm me too my all time favourite scene from BBT, reminds me of R and R from friends central perk is some ways. But me thinks their were some outside dynamics, and simmering real life tension influencing that scene :p. That of course happened as you pointed out because both their parents showed up, well Bev physically and Bev managed to manifest Penny's lol. So they bonded over their respective maternal issues. So yeah I could see that happening again, unless Leonard doesn't go "Come on your doing your dad" lol nice one Leonard.

After going over the last two episodes, I beginning to think that Leonard and Penny's friends are not really good friends. They have both been working to get together for almost 7 years and when they actually get engaged and tell their friends, Raj's sex romp becomes more important. Then when they try to celebrate their engagement together because their friends obviously don't care that much, Sheldon goes crazy, like only Sheldon can do, and Sheldon and Any's much more important life problems are dumped on them. It is like their engagement is meaningless to their friends, some friends. Why can't Leonard and Penny have a nice time together this summer and Bernadette and Howard do most of the heavy work helping Amy, Bernadette is suppose to be her good friend too. Howard can take her to a Neil Diamond concert to cheer her up. I just want Leonard and Penny to get to enjoy this new phase in life and not have to take on the gangs problems for at least a little bit. The first episode should have an engagement party for them, screw Sheldon, and the party should be thrown by Bernadette and Amy, being friends goes both ways and Amy has not been much of a friend about congratulating Penny on her engagement.

Amen SRAM, the gang should have been much appreciative of Lenny's engagement than celebrating with gusto Raj's sexual adventures, who cares about his sexual adventures. I could see Lenny felt hurt by the gang's reaction to their engagement.  I found the gang's attitude towards Lenny's engagement announcement being highly disrespectful.  That brings the question, are Lenny's friends two faced or not?  Amy and Bernadette should be a much better friend to Penny.  Truly insulting when the girls use their educational level to make fun of Penny or make her feel like she is not school smart.  For example, when Penny was telling her mother about her engagement and what Leonard does for a living; she said " he is scientist, works with lasers and atomic magnets " and Amy gave her this disdain look, that was so not respectful by Amy.  I m not sure if Penny's mother would understand the term " a physicist for applied physics " most people don't know what that is.   I can see Leonard putting his foot down if the girls or the guys aim disrespectful banter at Penny.  If it was not for Penny, Amy and Bernadette would still be socially awkward.  Same thing goes for the guys, Leonard brought them out of their egg shells; so little more respect should be shown  by the gang towards Lenny.  I could see Leonard really getting annoyed if his love is made fun of.

Your right Bernadette and Amy mock Penny's education almost as much as Sheldon does. I especially remember when they were getting into the comic books and they mocked her reading abilities. Also who can forget Amy's superior than thou statement about how cute it is when Penny tries.

Lenny once in a while should let the gang know, they are and will always be the Alpha male and queen bee :keeporder::queen:


the making fun of Penny's educational level is getting old already.  She is so much smarter than the girls and the guys when it comes to real life. She went to LA by herself to be in the movies, the gang would not be able to even survive outside their living spaces for a minute with the exception of Leonard of course. GO LENNY

Totally agree. Another thing that piss me off about later episodes in S7 was her friends not showing enough support for her, or being there during her crisis. When her scene got cut the only one there for her was leonard, i know the gang were sad for her but i feel they didnt make any effort to be there for her especially the girls. when her car packed up on her, again the only one there to comfort her was leonard. It's like they didn't care or they just though, let leonard deal with it. Not our problem. JMO.

This might sound weird, but I could see Penny bonding with Emily.  Bernadette is nice a girl, but sometimes she is really mean. The scene she and Amy ditched Penny and went out to the bar for drinks.  Penny believed in them when they said they could not go out that day for drinks. Tonstar17, Leonard is the one that should always be there for Penny whenever she goes through bad and good moments, he is her man.  But I agree, the girls should be more supportive of Penny, she is good friend to them.  But I agree, when Penny's car broke down, neither Amy or Bernadette gave her moral support.  That brings in question too, when Leonard' car was stolen, would have been nice to see Penny's reaction to it, I guess the writers paid more attention Star Trek fantasy land by the guys.

 

oops sorry, posted the same thing three times [corrected by Tensor]

I could understand the girls ditching penny to go drinking as it looked like she kept going on about the movie even leonard agreed with them. I do agree tho that Leonard will support her no matter what.

When the girls ditched Penny, doesn't it make sense she would be a little pissed at them, so when Amy's and Sheldon's little drama happened she maybe thought of herself first, just like Amy and Bernadette did when they ditched her. Payback is a bitch, but like they say, what goes around, comes around.

Leonard has always had Penny's back, he is the one person she can depend on in her life. Wyatt knew that, that is why he didn't want Leonard to give up on her. I bet Wyatt was ready to party when he found out about their engagement.

Ironic. You get lots of people saying that that lenny relationship is all about sex. As soon as penny rattled bernie out, you would think Howard be upset that his wife lied to him, but no.... He was happy that he was going to have sex with his wife dressed up as a Catholic school girl. Shame on you howie. NOT.......

I could see Wyatt doing back flips. :)

I love Kaley's short hair! I think she looks adorable! I hope the look continues into the show!

It will also distinguish Penny from all the other long-haired blonds at the casting calls. And it is nice that the end of an era (no more indecisive Penny) actually gets a visible marker. I hope it stays too.

Yeah I do feel as Penny became more and more decisive about her life, it became more apparent and apparent her "friends" could care less about the developments in her life, and were more concerned about Amy and Sheldon's problems, like above said Raj's sex romp e.t.c. Not to mention Bernadette and Amy's backhanded, underlying comments even when Penny was trying to go back to collage, almost in not so many words "Oh that's cute Penny, wanna see my PHd again?". Not to mention how increasingly snarky Bernadette has become with Penny, particularly with her past dating history, one has to think their is a sense of jealousy from Bernadette's part, or considering her noticeably bonding with Amy this season, she is starting to outgrow Penny. So in the finalie when Penny wasen't all that bothered, as 1. Nothing she could do was going to change Sheldon's freak out and 2. They haven't been all that close in Season 7 Penny and Amy that is. Sure they still have their group hangouts every now and then, but specifically the closeness is not their. Part of that is Penny becoming less tolerant with aspects of her life, and like some have said her friends seem a bit preoccupied presently. I mean time has gone on and I don't think this means they are bad friend's, it is just they are a preoccupied with their own issues, and have become lazy, and are not working on their friendships as much, it happened in Friend's too, it's just a fact of life I Think the writer's are exploring. I have always thought out of all the guys, then the girls later on Leonard was the only who always stood by her, and stuck up for her. Look at the ep was it in S2, Leonard was the only one who showed the nerve to confront Kurt, while the other woose's ran away haha. So I would like S8 to begin with Lenny engagement party, that would be awesome, I remember in S6 Leonard and Penny had a dinner party, was a start of the show slowly maturing. Host the engagement party at 4A, if Sheldon decides to return early, he comes home to several people partying, he trys to mingle and get to L/P, but they are a bit preoccupied. Sheldon realizes he does take Leonard and Penny for granted, and his friends and leaves to profess his love for Amy..... BAZINGA!

Kaley/Penny also had short hair in S4, I Think it's the ep Sheldon and co stole the Indianna Jones Flick.

Regarding on how the girls ditched Penny for drinks due to Penny's incessant movie part, Penny was happy about it. Leonard is a good man, even if he gets tired of it, he will always will listen to her topics of conversation; he just wants his Penny.  ; ) cant wait to see Wyatt reaction to Penny's engagement.  He likes Leonard, he knows that Leonard will take good care of Penny, will make her happy.

Well spotted. But I think it was not the pixie cut she sports now; rather more of a bob. Please post the photos so we can work it out. LOL. AND I want someone who knows to tell me the actual name of the style I know it s not a "Rachel". heheheh

3ku11, I think you touched on a good point in saying that there is perhaps a sense of jealousy from Bernadette towards Penny.  I wonder if she is jealous regarding on how Leonard treats Penny, how they are honest to each other, show the love for each other.  A lot of times looks like Bernadette is taking care of a child in Howard, so perhaps deep down she wishes it was Leonard instead.  Just a theory perhaps with no basis.  Funny thing is if the other couples have problems, they go running to Lenny for comfort.  Lenny are the most mature of all the gang.  Regarding living arrangements, if Leonard moves to Penny's, where is  he going to put all his vitamins? she has small bathroom cabinet.


Season 1 Kaley/Penny, she kind had short hair too.

She had long hair that season, well to her shoulders.   Look up "The Love Car Displacement" on google then look for videos.  That episode was a few after "The 21 Second Excitation".    In that episode, she had her hair up in two pony-tail like buns.

Oh any hairstyle post 1994 from any female in a sitcom, that has an appropriate length, is considered the "Rachel" haha. Mmmm yes some reason the image I had of Kaley/Penny with short hair was vastly different from this, I had a image of the "Rachel" :p. http://www.thetvcritic.org/assets/TBBT/_resampled/resizedimage600267-vlcsnap-299401.png
