[Spoilers] Discussion Topic: Season 9

According to the taping report Lenny got married then fought again after  I can't see Penny or Leonard wanting to end the marriage no matter how angry they are with each other and I think the writers have crossed a bridge they can't come back from if they do they risked a fan revolt. I think Lenny will work things out over the first few episodes and maybe get married again sometime later in the season this time with family and friends there. I also hope that they will  be living together in 4A or 4B it's time

For those that went to the taping was it funny? I am waiting to see the premier episode air (and I will be able to watch it in Vegas :icon_razz:) before I decide completely what I think.  I think taping reports come across as more dramatic because you are not seeing the acting.  I found the finale more funny than I expected apart from the tag. Having said that I love the taping reports and all the info feed back so thanks to all who write them.

Leonard and Penny's marriage should have been perfect. They deserve that and their fans after all the trials and tribulations they have been through. What do we get, a wedding made in hell. Lenny do not deserve that. They should be on their honeymoon bathing in the glory that is their love for each other. Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk

Yeah Sheldon such.a great friend diminishingLeonard infront of Penny. Whounlike most of bbt fanbase, has not forgotten his almost saint behavior, and heroism the past eight years. Everything he has done for Sheldon, supporting Penny unconditionally past two seasons. Sorry im not as ignorant and not going to put Leonard under a bus, based on one mistake, im not perfect nor is anyone. Is this a surprise? This degrading Leonard character. Just a plot device growth and to show Pennys insecurities. Brilliant and Attractive. Priya, e.t.c. They show Penny insecure, as they are everything shes not.

 

Fact hes worked with her two years,.other then the boat incident which has still yet to be properly explained. He has not pursued her, married Penny. Time to realize out of the guys Penny would choose Leonard every single time, hes the mackdaddy ppl simple as that. But it shows he can be trusted. Did they break up over Alex? Did they over Zac? No all this is continuity, Bringing Pennys insecurities to the forefront. I just dont get saying Penny deserves better, when other then poor judgement, Leonard has done nothing wrong to justify that statement. His two years, tbh eight years of devotion more then makes up for it. Its just a plot device. If they were going to break up they wouldent of got them married, settle. 

Bbt is not a drama, its a pure comedy. Its meant to be light hearted and fluffy. The past two years theirs been a trend, of heading in a more soap operash type show, not a drama. The general tone and style indicates this. Watch 1-5 alot more light hearted. Its more the tone at present is dramatic not neccessary the show overall,  cant be dramatic.

No, the writers haven't ALWAYS been amazing. Except for Shamy growth in S8, IMO it was shit, and not to break them up after so much growth and improvement? It feels ridiculous.

I just wish you'd stop using the s-word in every other post.  I know that may be your opinion, but I find it kind of offensive.

There were funny parts, but the second half of the episode was so sad, it kinda overshadowed the funny stuff.

Leonard's line about Penny being hard to lift actually played funnier in person than it reads because of how badly he was struggling to carry her over the threshold.   It was pretty clear that it had nothing to do with Penny's size and everything to do with Leonard being physically weak.  So there's that.

I have no problem with the Shamy break-turned-break-up.I'm one of those rallying that they don't get back together easily just for ratings.What got me thinking though is why they have to coincide the Shamy breakup with the Lenny conflict.2 conflicts in one show is too much drama,and rushing the other couple to get married is just meh.I get the feeling some new character will come in to shake things up happening in the social group. Are the writers planning to revert back to the early seasons and will try to sort of replicate the early Amy and Bernadette set up?We'll know later in the upcoming seasons.

Im hoping once the dust settles. Leonard say proposes again did to make up for their shitty first wedding. And they get married in the hallway. Seeing all their big moments have been their. The wedding the susposed climax the show, should be isolated. But i dont kno the taping implies to me anyway Shamy is the focus moving forward, which is fine. But dont forget your baby huh haha. It kinda feels like Lenny was the first born child, who received so much adoration and love. But then the had a second child lol, then they started getting all the attention, oh look at the cute baby haha. While the older brother or sister in the background getting older, fatter maybe lol. And no longer a number one priority. I kno i felt like that when my parents had my brother lol.

A thought about our flawed heroine and our apparently very flawed hero! Penny is probably really confused, the one thing she always pointed out that she never had to worry about Leonard straying. Why would she or any of us fans think any differently. From the very beginnings of the show you can see Leonard just light up every time Penny was around. She was his goddess, his dream girl, the women he wanted to have smart and beautiful babies with! In time Penny came to appreciate and eventually love this geeky nerd who worshipped her. Even after their S3 breakup, she realized how much she missed him. That she saved that box of all the Leonard things, and said almost in tears Because they're you when questioned showed how much she had gown to love him.

I just loved the way she looked at him in 8.24, when discussing when to marry. I'm available tonight, and Vegas is not that far away. Then she still marries him after hearing that her always loyal fiancée, had kiss this girl on a ship while they were a couple.Now this fact that she works with Leonard. I believe she still loves him at this point, but is hurt and confused.

I like that this Mandy will be in the next episode. Sounds like some quick resolution. Will Leonard prove that although flawed, he still loves Penny and is willing to work through this with her. Will Mandy show Penny that it was a mistake and that Leonard stopped it because he truly loved someone else (Penny)!

Is the cat still alive and savable, or will it finally die due to Leonard's failings.Only the writers know. I do question how they write for Leonard and Penny if they do end it. After all this time together they both would be completely devastated and living across the hall from each other. Not much comedy there.

I realize I am incoherently rambling about a sitcom I care way  too much about. The writers made me fall in love with this show and these characters. They made all 7 of them flawed, quirky and so lovable. Yes I love all the characters on this show,although a couple of them more than the others. I hope to laugh and care about them for at least a few more years.

Words of wisdom my friend. Everything you said is so true. At the moment their love is a battlefield. Looks like Mandy will either break or make them stronger. Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk

I don't care anymore. I'm done. The marriage from hell is now hardcoded and can never be erased. Just like the infidelity. Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk

well i remember johnny and kaley saying if they walked away from this with.absolutley nothing they would be devastated. Look the whole premise is them, its the biggest story of the show. Just like Ross and Rachel were, Lenny are endgame. Have been since 1x01. So while theirs angst, of course their is. Theirs two seasons at least left in the show, they need to keep viewers invested. If they moved in together the end, they would be boring as Howardette imo. So this aint about endgame, but the process.

s8 onwards bbt Joey lol. A sequel as bad as family guys dark side of the moon;). Show could of ended s7 the end :). But alas this show is way too popular for that. For me the show well.end with Lenny finding a house to move in with their smart and beautiful babies, damn.they well be smart and hot lol. And sadly Shamy a gray area :(. Cut to scene a girl moves in, a nerdy guy says hi, hi. Camera fades the end :).

 

Eta: never understood nine years later ppl still argue if Lenny are endgame. They have been for years. If it was about that, they would of ended the show in s1 finalie when they first dated. But its because of its popularity, and the process, it continued. Wasent for that we wouldent have Shamy lucky us lol.

They should have never got them engaged if this is what they planned for them in S9. we missed most of the joy of them being engaged, now it looks like we'll miss them getting married too in a happy way. I love the show and I enjoy all the characters but I'm not going to sit and watch the shit that the TPTB are feeding us lenny fans for much longer. Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk

I think they deserved a beautiful wedding, with all their friends and family together and no drama. I'm disappointed.

I agree. However as I said before, I'm not surprised. I expect that after the kiss crisis is over that the PTB will demote Lenny back to the position they had last season so they can push the Shamy relationship. I hope I'm wrong. BTW Watch as Shamy eventually has a big wedding.

getting engaged stalled things. They clearly had no plan after engaging them off. Big mistake, they engaged off too early imo.

I got my new passport last week now I'm ready. If IMO the show doesn't improve by Nov 1 ( end of hurricane season) I'll go south and not worry about the show Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk
