Sheldon's ILY interrupted. Someone disrupting the Shamy kiss on the train.Sheldon in the way again (exciting)

 

How was he in the way?  I think the punchline was very organic to the episode because it dealt with the topic they were discussing earlier.  it fits exactly where it should.

 

As long as you're bringing it up:

 

No one interrupted the Lenny ILY--not when Leonard said it and not when Penny finally said it.

No one interrupted the Lenny first kiss (whichever one you count as the first.)

No one interrupted the first time they slept together.

No one interrupted the actual proposal (in Penny's apartment, where it counted.)

Every lenny scene doesn't have to end with a sheldon joke. Take the prom scenes. Lenny were so funny & cute together, without sheldon. Also the other characters are also funny too. Point is Sheldon didn't need to be there. Poor Amy, how would she feel when she finds out that sheldon spend the night on Penny couch instead of asking her to sleep on his couch, (progress)she is his no1 priority. NOT... But that wouldn't be funny. Interupting lenny is always the funniest as some posters.keep pointing out.

Oh alright, so I see we are going with mature.

 

He wasn't interrupting anything. They were going to show anything, just like Phanta said.

You asked. I answered. I know they weren't going to show anything in the bedroom. Can't make a joke during ILY and a kiss. As phanta pointed out earlier the show is a comedy. Sheldon in the tag is no different than Sheldon in the backseat at the airport. The writers could have come up with something funny without Sheldon. in both cases.

You're right, their first ILY wasn't interupted, they broke them up. I look forward to you reaction when they break up Shamy, since you want the same for Shamy, right? If your talking about what happened for Lenny's first mutual ILY, surprise, surprise, that was interrupted by Sheldon. And Penny's first ILY was prefaced by Sheldon pointing out she could be performing oral sex on another guy.

Obviously Leonard is much more of an important person in Sheldon's life than Amy. Kind of looks like Penny is #2.

Again, I don't understand what is the problem of most of Lenny scenes ending with Sheldon joke.

As phanta pointed out, Sheldon didn't interrupt them. Everything that needed to be said or done between the two of them in that scene and few others where Sheldon appeared at the end was said and done. Only then the Sheldon and joke came.

The reason for that, the way I see it, is because the show is comedy after all, and Sheldon is the one closest to Leonard, who is the show's main protagonist.

Shamy scenes also have lots of funny scenes in them, even funny mixed with cuteness, only to funny part is usually thrown in between rather than at the end. True, Shamy kiss and ILY weren't interrupted but neither was Lenny ILY or the scene mentioned above. And that Shamy scenes also ended with the joke, only between the two of them rather than somebody else. I think that is due to their personalities, them being socially awkward and having pretty unusual relationship, to, often spontaneously, end some of the scenes with joke with nobody else joining in, while with Leonard and Penny it is easier to do so with Sheldon. It is also a nice reminded that they have a loving relationship and get along with each other and their friends despite some of them being difficult to deal with.

Obviously you're see first mutual ILY as other than me. For me it's the one in the hall, because Leonard already told it and Penny did that finally too. That was the one mutual for me. Same with Shamy, the other didn't have to tell it, because we already knew. But you can see it other way of course.

The prom scene with L/P was cute and funny, but it wasn't the zing that they like to end the show with.

And Sheldon isn't in every tag scene--yes, they do indeed use others for the tag scenes.  It depends on the theme of the episode and point being made by the punchline.

 

And for the thousandth time, Sheldon didn't interrupt anything in this scene.  What's funny about Leonard and Penny going to bed?  Nothing, unless they make some joke between them--like the one about sleeping on the money that all the Lennys seemed to hate?

 

Sheldon and Amy's "ILY" scene was "interrupted" by a joke--the bit about the panic attack and "girls aren't allowed in my room".  Ended the emotional scene on a punchline.

IMO, this moment is not different.  The scene between L/P was over really, then the joke is that Sheldon is there on the couch.  It doesn't change the fact that L/P are going to bed together.

Didn't your mommy and daddy ever explain to you that there are two kinds of love?

He never mentioned love Dena, he said importance. Sheldon can't seem to let Leonard go, but doesn't want Amy to move in with him. That does appear to make Leonard more important to him.

I can't speak for other people but while I have no problem with SHAMY, I do have a problem with what seems to be an overabundance of SHELDON this season.  

 

Yes, Sheldon is an iconic character and JP plays him brilliantly BUT I think that he is somewhat becoming overbearingly present way too often.

 

Which is a shame because I'm actually liking Sheldon these last couple of episodes at times and finding him more endearing.  It would be a shame if I started to feel that Sheldon was shoved into practically every scene just because it's SHELDON and not because it's progresses either the story line or the punchline.

 

Wanted to add that this is just from episodes that have aired.  While I send mucho kudos out to all who provide taping reports, I don't wish to comment directly on something that has not been polished and therefore entered into canon...

The argument over who is more important to Sheldon is ridiculous. Both Leonard and Amy are important to him. He doesn't want Leonard to move out. But that doesn't mean he doesn't want Amy to move in so much as he's scared of the commitment. You know, like Penny has been scared of commitment? That didn't mean Leonard wasn't important to her.

 

There's so much importance being put on the tag scene, it makes me laugh. Like, it's a punchline. Nothing more.

Yeah, just before they broke them up. That was so much fun for the Lenny's, thank god it wasn't interupted though.

I didn't like this episode/moment either, but it wasn't meant to be their mutual ILY from the start, that was sadly, just writers way to broke them up. Their real ILY was perfect and uninterrupted.

He was referencing who is more important to him. I can't even believe I have to explain this to a bunch of grown ass men. 

 

If you had to choose who is more important, your parents/siblings (which Leonard is to Sheldon) or your significant other, are you telling me that you could easily make that choice? I couldn't because they are important for different reasons, mainly because you love these people in two completely different ways. Hence, two different kinds of love.
