I love that the fact that Penny makes Leonard happy makes Penny happy. ^_^

Ok, I have a confession to make: I’m in love again with Penny! :icon_redface: 
If the writers make Penny happy, the show makes me also happy. This episode gives me a reminder of the old days of our beloved sitcom.
BTW Pennys facial expressions were terrific. :icon_razz:

So, Bev is officially a Lenny shipper?!? I'm saying yes. I think deep down, underneath that tough analytical exterior, Beverly has a soft spot for Penny. Took me back to season 3 when Penny got her "home girl" drunk and happy. Looks like Penny's power to affect Hofstadters extends past Leonard ( sounds like she has already won over Old Mr Hofstadter from the reports).

Welcome back Real Penny. Star of the show tonight. The funny faces, the feisty determination, the pride in knowing stuff ( yeah Pi and Venn diagrams aren't groundbreaking achievements but when you've been made to look like glue is a challenge.......) the happiness that being with Leonard brings to her life was all there tonight. Never felt she deserved all the #freeleonard nonsense anyway but surely we can get back to accepting she loves her husband with all her heart and any minor snark and Shenniness is cancelled out by a wife who accepts picking up the mother in law without hesitation and is determined to forge a friendship with a woman who has caused nothing but grief. Bravo Penny, bravo!

This episode was definitely about Penny and her being a good wife and partner to Leonard as she tries to become a part of Leonard's family, everything else was secondary to that.  Penny was great, she seemed to understand why Leonard didn't want to be around Bev, so she just took it as an opportunity to try and bond with her.  Kaley's facial expressions were awesome, even when Penny said nothing her face told you exactly what she was thinking.  But the thing that made me smile was the smile Penny had when Bev told her how happy Leonard was being married to her, that was priceless.

Kaley always nails 'the so happy I could cry' face. It was such a welcome sight in last night's episode.

True, also some of it is the raw emotion she feels when she is being Penny like the 'I Love You' scene in season six when she was about to really cry when she said those words to Leonard.

I haven't been much of a Penny fan this season due to what I see as continued snarkiness with Leonard for unknown reasons and the warm and fuzzy way she has with Sheldon. None of that ever sat right with me. But in last night's episode for me, she was redemptive. Penny glowing with Bev's admission that she had never seen Leonard so happy -- the implication of that being it was because of Penny -- was an absolute joy to watch and something I've been waiting and hoping for through multiple dusty, barren episodes this season. It was such a pleasure to see that and did this shipper's jaded and cynical heart very good. 

In previous episodes, we acknowledged Team Hofstadter moments when, on the few times, they would out flank Sheldon and give one another a high five. But last night, with Bev noting something wonderful happening with Leonard, because of Penny, was, for me, truly a foundational Team Hofstadter moment. 

Being the needy baby, greedy baby that I am, I want more of these. A lot more. Just like that.

Mate, that was about TPTB letting her have a marriage - nothing to do with the character. But nice to hear they will be showing that L/P are having fun and happiness. Last thing I saw  was her slapping down her husband's offer of a nookie in the woods. Side splitting.

Waiting for the broadcast.

The long running joke there was penny already done it, that's why she went to get a drink. Just like the money on the bed joke. Would be nice if we get something that she hasn't don't before and do it with Leonard, like breaking her bed and the chair. 😊

Or maybe her real life was hell for her for most of the season and things are finally good for her now. I thought she performed well, considering.

Penny went out of the bedroom to take a sip of wine, returned and then...Leonard completely rocked Penny's world in that cabin bedroom. And how! Like there's no tomorrow. :yes: Where do you think Lenny are in the tag scene, when Shamy are still playing the game. :icon_cheesygrin:

The next time they're playing this game and someone would say "Never have I ever made love in the forest while it was raining", Leonard can take a sip too. Or two...or three...:icon_cheesygrin:

That's lovely. If only we knew it to be so. Unfortunately, I believe what they show me. I want the evidence, dammit. Lol :) 

Mrs Gunderson needs a callback. Hehe

How adorable was this, though? You know, I can't count the times I wanted Bev to get hit by a bus, but if the writers decide to actually make her care about her son and his wife? I'm game. I mean Bev is actually smiling and look at Penny. She's so, so happy. This is really sweet.

From Jessica Radloff's article about "The Line Substitution Solution":

Quote

"And then there was Kaley Cuoco's hilarious reactions to Baranski, which should serve as the basis for some new emojis."

I agree. A really great performance from Kaley in her very own Cuoco style. :icon_biggrin:
