Yes, someone tweeted Bill that they better not ruin prom the way they did last night in editing.  Apparently it was a Shamy fan who was unhappy they edited out the hug.

 

I saw that - and Prady responded that the show is what airs on TV, not the show somebody wrote about on the internets - so I think it is safe to assume that they know about the taping reports, and haven't cared up til now, but that could change if people start bugging them to much about things that haven't aired yet.

I think, basically... if you want to flip out on Twitter (or whatever), that is your right. Just don't direct it at poor Bill or anyone else involved with the show, keep it in your own twitter feed..lol. At the end of the day we are big fans and emotional breakdowns on social media might happen...but we need to be mindful about what we actually send in their direction. We are very lucky to get spoilers. I agree with many that we need to step back and really analyze our behavior towards spoilers.

The Shamy hug wasen't that big of deal anyway, based on the pic Sheldon diddn't looked pleased lol. But techniquely speaking they cut out scenes all the time, seeing they only get half an hour a week. In the dvds you get uncut scenes, you don't see when they originally aired on tv. But when in the process of cutting scenes, I am sure they are not aware of a Shippers Feelings ;). Apart from needing a balance between perception and reality,and being very unhealthy. It gives the show and its fans who are a bit more saavy then that a bad name. Unfortunately people are going to do what they are going to do.

big hugs and butt slaps and engagements with coitus good you could go nuts. 

No, now! 

I want a prom 

I want a party 

blues gowns and a million balloons and performing baboons and 

Give it to me now.

Honestly guys. Im not very happy.. 

 

I did intend to take a few days away from the fandom as I am not in the right state of mind at the moment. Im not going to go into RL details as its not for the forums.. But Yesterday was a pretty upsetting day for me before this episode even aired.

 

For me, A heavy shamy fan that gets a terrible amount of happiness from slightest thing.. The cut of that hug felt like someone dangling a carrot in front of me then taking it away at the last moment. And Yesterday I needed that moment. Im not going to sit here and make up excuses for it. We was ALL looking forward to it, And I'm sorry... But I am disappointed it was cut. And I don't think I can really be ok with it. Not at this moment in time anyway.

 

Yes the ILY is coming. But my faith in that? 50/50. Im going to be biting my nails until it airs. Will it make the final draft?, will everything in there make it? When is it even going to air?

 

Then something else hits me. I am letting BBT pretty much run my life. 24 hours without posting, tweeting, Whatsapping, fangirling, tumblr-ing... And I feel like I pretty much accomplished nothing today apart from practicing mathematical formulas for weight volume distributions. (Thats a bit of fun sarcasm there FYI).. Should it really be like that? A day without the fandom and I feel like a wasted day? (Ok enough of that.. to much deep RL stuff)

 

Anyway back to the shamy.. I just spent an hour catching up in here. And while I take all your opinions and attention to detail into account (and furthermore not judging you or saying you are wrong). My opinion still stands that I'm pissed. It should have been there.

No it shoulden't have been. The writing staff made a decision, so they can fit in all what they wanted as Plot A for the ep that week. They cut scenes all the time. Theirs no need to over react to something you can't change. The hug it self felt out of place considering it was predominantly a Sheldon Raj storyline. So I think they made the right decision. In 30 minutes a week they an only fit in so much, so I think a simple hug is not a priority for them, despite how others may feel. Just go with the flow, its all in good fun watching this show. We all know Shamy are end game, when it comes to all characters if they cut out a scene ah well, but in the big scheme of things if it doesent effect the shows quality, or the level of how funny the ep is I think that is more important as you were.

I'm sorry skull, If they cut anything Lenny, You would be the first to flip your shit.

 

And As I said. Im not judging anyone else's opinion or saying anyone is wrong. Thats just how I personally feel about it.

And another thing Skull...

 

People are allowed to be upset or feel disappointed with something and Its in no way "overreacting".. Just its because its not something you agree with or see eye to eye with. makes it in no way an overreaction.

Well now your jumping to conclusions. If they say for e.g. Cut a Lenny hug or kiss. Would I be annoyed yes? But we need to consider the context here. The hug in this case was not isolated for Shamy, it was just one scene. But I understand the process. My point is the quality of the episode for me outweighs Shipping. But this is OT maybe someone should create a thread to discuss this in more detail.

Well Im annoyed they cut the hug. But apparently Im not allowed to express that.. In the context of things.. They filmed something, I was excited.  We had a promo photo of it, I was more excited. It was cut, I was upset about it.

Things are cut out or written in for a reason when it comes to television/films/ect., but having said that, if you expected something, it's okay to feel disappointed and sad when it's not there.

Like there was a scene in Supernatural where they had Castiel expressing sadness, and they cut it out, even though I felt it was integral to his character story.

I feel like the hug wasn't necessary, but it is a shame it wasn't in there anyway. I don't feel sad about it, but it's okay if others do.
What you feel is okay. What you feel is valid simply because you feel it.

 I am not sure why some are getting all upset over a small scene (that was not even noticeable) that was cut out. In my opinion after watching it the Hug did not fit. Any average viewer who not on here reading spoilers or even on the internet would not have known in the first place! I think some need to calm down a bit and take a deep breath. We got the ILY coming and they would and will not cut that out because of it predominance it holds in the Sheldon storyline in that Episode and it being pretty much a whole scene unlike the Hug1. stuff get cut all the time! Even Lenny moment have been cut before! And I do not think it a reason to lash out at the producers. It was a quick hug by Amy in pretty much less then a second of a  moment that was cut out. The producers make cuts for many reasons that we don't know of.

No Kazzie you are allowed to disappointed, that I think is one of the purposes of the forums to vent your frustrations.  There is a lot of us on the Lenny Ship forum that don't like that Lenny don't seem to kiss anymore and we vent, so vent away.
