Oh can't wait for Shamys boring sex

Stop being jealous, it doesn't suit you.

I know you would prefer a Lenny story or ensemble story over a Shamy story, but you know fully well this particular story isn't boring.

No, but Shamy sex seems too rushed.

They can't just keep it to themselves?

Perhaps they can keep it to themselves, but Penny and Bernadette already know that was the plan...so it would not be surprising if they reacted even if Shamy don't say a word. :laugh:

I do agree that it struck me as so soon after the break-up and seemed a bit "rushed" but not really when you consider that Sheldon had been thinking of it already for a while (even well before the breakup).   I think the breakup made him realize just how much he wanted it though, and he wanted to also make her "his" in a way....so it sort of is in keeping with character and story.   I personally would have liked to have seen engagement then living arrangements changed and marriage/coitus...but I am happy with this as well since it does still work and makes sense when you step back and consider that they have been emotionally and romantically tied to each other for five years and falling more and more in love during that time.  Sheldon has been wanting to move things along, but I think feared failure and also had to be nervous as heck before the breakup.   The breakup made him realize that he needed to man up and "make his claim on her" and show her just how much he loves her.  He felt very ready and was definitely in control of the evening.   So it all worked well within the storyline.

I think Sheldon will keep it to himself, he's never really been into chatting about sex with the guys dunno if that's lack of interest on his part or lack of frame of reference? but Amy and the girls are bound to chat about it!

From the Hollywood reporter article (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/big-bang-theory-amy-sheldon-843794) yesterday: 

Quote

"Their relationship floundered this season," Lorre tells THR of Sheldon and Amy's breakup storyline. "It helped spur them to move forward and pursue their relationship more aggressively, having realized that you don't know what you've got until it's gone, as the song goes. That happened for Sheldon — missing Amy was wearing on him in a way he hadn't anticipated." ~ Chuck Lorre

I'm so glad that Chuck said this! A lot of people were speculating about Sheldon's reasoning and here it is in black & white from the creators mouth that they were right! All the 'southern borders' type comments were indeed his failings weighing on his mind, asking her about sleeping with other guys cus he thought that he had missed his chance :( 

The Bob Newhart stuff looks hilarious! "I just hope this isn't a sex dream!" :rofl:  Can't wait for 9x10/9x11 to air and this whole drama to finally be over!

A scene with all 8 of the Big Bang Gang in 4a eating take out in 9x12 and I'll be a very happy fan girl!

It remains to be seen if it worked well within the storyline since the episode hasn't been shown yet. The last time coitus was mentioned was season 6 (by Penny) so I don't see how he was actually thinking about it.  It was about time for it to happen but the way it happened seemed rush. I'm not sure it was so much Sheldon deciding to "man up"  it was more no other woman would put up with his crap. The storyline, especially in the upcoming episode, was so skewed in Sheldon's favor it made things simple to get Amy back.

I'd really love to have an ensemble piece for the next ep. Something like the scavenger hunt or D&D. And of course, some group reaction to coitus :)

I would love a whole group interaction episode.  BUT I really don't want it to be centered around the coitus.  To me, in my humble opinion and speaking only for myself (I think I covered all bases) it would just cheapen it...

Oh, lord, no I don't want the episode to be centered around coitus! :) I'd just like to see the guys tease Sheldon for a line or two and have the rest of the ep be just something fun with everyone.

The cast goes back to work tomorrow, don't they?

Maybe we get a script cover?

I think there will be no problems with that, since one of the big events this season was revealed quite early.

It's been a while since they have had "experiment" in the title...

I think that a more funny outcome would be if the guys would be bewildered/shocked by the revelation, especially by the detail that he had missed Star Wars due to coitus, possibly suspecting another gossip experiment, and Sheldon would act casual and open about it, not understanding what the big deal is, like most of the time when somebody finds something about him to be odd or unexpected.

 
While Amy would talk to her friends about it, now that they have one more thing in common (having coitus with their partners), and get gently turned down after getting too descriptive.

I don't think that such parameters played a role in coitus, since they both appeared relaxed and satisfied before and after, and the coitus was apparently preceded by at least two make out sessions and a clothing change.

Amy's reported out of breath state and her "wild woman" hair seems to indicate otherwise.

Time efficient for what?   To just get it over with?   To get to the SW premiere?    He gave away his ticket.

If that were the case, he would have jumped her as soon as he walked in the door to get it over with.   He wouldn't have gone to the trouble to have a conversation with his own conscience through PP about worrying about getting overwhelmed, and perhaps part of that overwhelming feeling was concern about it being over too quickly.

There is a reason he went to Penny to ask her for advise on what to do.  He bought flowers.  He wanted to go to dinner, first.   He clearly was not trying to get this over with.   He was wanting to make it perfect.

I don't see Sheldon telling anyone they did it quickly.   I see him bragging about his prowess, because he has to excel at everything he does.   

He's constantly teasing Penny about her disappointing coitus with Leonard.   He definitely doesn't want to be put in the same category regarding his own performance.

Sheldon has never acted quickly on anything with Amy.   He may emulate The Flash, but I'm sure in the bedroom he's trying not to, nor does he want to be portrayed as such.

Sheldon is the king of denial, and he may try to skirt the topic, but he won't lie about it.

I agree with everything you say in your post, and it does make a whole lot of sense, but I have to ask you because you have more in depth knowledge of Shamy , it being your ship: doesn't it seem rushed when you compare it with the rest of the relationship?  Of course I understand that having lost Amy and getting her back must have shook Sheldon to his core, but it seems a tad too quick for my taste. Another important thing that came out of the split/reconciliation thing was that it made Sheldon overcome what , for me at least , was the biggest thing stopping progress before which was that while Sheldon loved Amy before, he used to love himself much more. I don't know if the "balance of power" has shifted completely, but I think it's much closer, and that Sheldon loves Amy enough to be able to put her wishes and well being before his own.

So he could of just laid in bed while Amy was on top doing all the work. That would explain the hair and being out of breath.

So would a rousing game of Twister, but I don't think that happened either.

First I'm happy that the shamys are getting what they waited along time for but you have to think no matter how much they've read on the Internet this is the first time for both of them and i will be more awkward than anything
