So in the end it looks like they cut the -cket line (which I'm guessing from the tag was originally going to be Sheldon takes the ring out of his pocket). All that speculation for nothing. Thanks a lot Prady!  :icon_razz:

I think the engagement ring kept on the drawer has a better dramatic effect.

it was a spoken line. so he might have been speaking to gollum still. "you don't really wear pants to speak of, so I guess you wouldn't recommend keeping this in my pocket." or something like that.

Or "what do I do with this one in my pocket"

Ok let me understand this Penny And Leonard are still headed To Vegas after Leonard's confession my guess Season 9 opens with them in Vegas they talk and clear the air and decide not to get married in Vegas they set a date to get married and spend a few days having fun. They have 2 more seasons so I don't see a Vegas wedding  for Lenny at least not without there friends

Yeah, after 8 seasons, I don't think there is any way that Lenny elope in Vegas, that's just not happening - I used to assume that Lenny would get married in the series finale, then after they got engaged I thought the time table had been moved up, now after this season I think they just might drag it out until the end.

Thank you Kazzie, Michy, Maria Albina and everyone else who went last night and have provided us with a TR and Info. Very appreciative as always.From what I have read  It sound like it will be a great season finale. the most dramatic yet. What a cliffhanger, They are going to have on the edge of our seat all Summer. 

 

I can understand Amy wanting a little break.  Sheldon was about to get some action and he had to ruin the moment. 

 

And frankly I do not think Leonard should have told Penny about the Kiss. Dumb move oh is part imo. It likely was another way to delay the wedding.  It sounds like it was just a kiss while he was drunk. Penny should move on and let it go (Remember her teaching that to Sheldon?) as it was a couple years  ago. 

 

 

You know the more I think about it I wouldn't be surprise now if they hold off the wedding until the series finale.

I think Stuart is going to become the house guess who never leaves.  

 

The coitus in the graveyard is kind of weird. I wonder if Emily will be Raj Girlfriend by the end of the seires? 

 

 

I think season 9 will open a day after season 8:

 

Leonard and Penny are in Vegas about to get Married but then at the last minute they decide not too.  they decide to move in permanently together. 

 

Sheldon goes to Amy apartment and they talk things through. At  the  end the break is off. Sheldon stays the night at Amy apartment for the first time. 

 

And Howard and Bernadette are still trying to figure  out how to tell Stuart to move out.  

 

And Raj and Emily will be will still Raj and Emily. 

 

We should all wait until it airs to make a final judgement.

Thanks for the report! 

 

The knee jerk reaction: 

 

Lenny:  Sounds like Leonard was kissed and put a stop to it.  That is acceptable, IMO. The odd part is why bring it up now?  He's been back for how long?  However, just seems like undue drama..."dun dun dun" without a real point  It seems odd to me.

 

Shamy:  Can't say I am surprised.  The part that stands out to me is why now?  Why is this moment the deal breaker to Amy?  (I guess with the cold open from the previous epi. the set up was there).  As a Shamy, who felt the need to justify some of the reason she stayed when others might have jumped ship, it too feel oddly out of place. 

 

Rajemily:  That story felt off too.  Like Raj wants to break up with her, then doesn't and comes back with an ILY.  But am encouraged that Emily will be back.  I like her and hope if she is in fact next season that they develop her story a lil more (is she THAT creepy, is it a front, etc). 

 

Howardette. The story as it relates to Stuart makes sense. 

 

Ultimately, I don't think Lenny will go through with it just because I think TPTB would want to take this to the 200th epi.  Not all that concerned with the Shamy break up if it means a more balanced relationship.  The fear is that they resolve it in a one off line and the relationship comes right pack to push/pull. 

 

Of course, it may play differently on screen and some off the "WTH" stuff to me will play out seamless and succinct on screen. 

 

I will give TPTB this: they certainly came up with cliffhangers and will leave fans talking/guessing over the summer.

I just read the Episode 24 taping report. Brilliantly written Michy. My mouth was hanging open when Sheldon got out the engagement ring.

But I do have a question; Leonard and Penny were in the car and Leonard told Penny about the girl, but did Leonard then turn around the car? Was the impromptu wedding called off? Or will we not know until the season 9 premiere?

 

Sorry if this wasn't clear in the TR. Penny is fuming but a bit quiet and calm about it, and Leonard asks if they're still getting married. She says yes. So all indications are that they're still driving to Vegas to get married, but my humble opinion is that they will get there and realize it's not the right decision right now. They'll either continue to fight about it, or they'll be standing there ready to say their whatevers and one or both of them will feel that it's not right and back out. With this new information, it doesn't sound like they're quite as ready for marriage as I would have thought earlier.

Leonard has never been able to deal with guilt very well. Two examples: his tryst with Priya (which he eventually confessed to Howard and Raj), and his indiscretion with Alice (which he confessed to Priya). At least this time, according to Michy, he wasn't the one who instigated it, and he called it off as soon as it happened. I'm imagining a drunken girl lunging at him and sticking her tongue down his throat, all the while his arms are comically waving in the air in a wild "stop, stop, get off me!" gesture. :) I do agree that the timing is odd, but of course, from a real-world perspective, it was done deliberately to create a cliffhanger for next season, and we all know that the writers and producers aren't adverse to sacrificing realism for the sake of storytelling.

Lenny will not get married in Vegas. For reasons that Leonard was kissing girl on North Sea trip, his omission that he showed team video of naked Penny on trip, engagement ring coming from Tiffany's when it was really a recycled diamond and Penny's commitment phobia.

Is this for fucking real?

 

I am absolutely done with taping reports forever. I cannot fucking tolerate people who do this shit. 

 

Yep it is you can see his replies to that person  in retweet and replies. I could not believe it. I don't understand why people do things like that. They need to think before they talk 

 

I would not blame you one bit if you stop people are just taking advantage of it now.

WTF!!! What the hell is wrong with people??!!

Is there any way to make at least the locked parts for members only? So at least as far as the TR threads, not just anybody can view it?

 

Sound like a good idea. I think there need to be change of rules for Taping Reports. Now that this season has ended it a good time to do that.

just did some digging and its this one lighttomydark person.... and with 3 people following...its obviously a fake account from a real person for "venting"....so damn childish and a disgrace to the respectable fans who enjoy the show, respect the cast & crew and mainly appreciate all our fellow fandom members do for us!!!

 

outraged!

First off thanks to all of you who provided the TR, yesterday and all season long!! you have no idea how much we appreciate it!!

 

Secondly what the hell are people thinking going and ratting out to the creators!! Do they no realize that these are spoilers!! Is it necessary to get to mad at something that is not in their control and rant about it!!!!

 

This is just going to create problem for all those wonderful people who are gracious enough to take time off to do the reports for us!!!

I have no problem with Shamy taking a break, it was needed, they will get back together sometime next season.  What I do have a problem with is that Amy choose to tell him over Skype, that was harsh.  As for Lenny, I don't think they'll get married in Vegas, Penny is a heck of a lot nicer that I would've been I probably would've dumped Leonard right there if he kissed a girl on the boat two years ago he wouldn't hesitate to do it again now that he knows he can get away with it.  Once a cheater always a cheater.
