Well some people think Bernadette becoming Pregnant is a sign the show is nearing it end.  I think the writers know whether there one season or one seasons left The clock is now ticking on the show and that they don't have much time left. 

We will have to wait and see. We should know by May Upfront.

Future events can be predicted based on past events, from what we have seen what can we realistically expect.

Blind hope in the face of the odds is just self delusion

Hey it an excuse to get battered on a school night. Lenny moving forward or not. It's happening. To celebrate or to drink into our sorrows. Everyone's a winner. Until later when the hangover kicks in. 😵 Pissed.com.

Just the fact that that it is their 200 Episode call for a celebration. that is a great achievement especially for a TV Show on the air today.  Not many sitcoms are in that club.  It a small group

Especially seeing critics Said it wouldn't last a season.

Let's see just "modern" shows: mash 11 seasons, cheers 11 seasons, fraiser 11 seasons, married with children 10 season, the Jefferson's 10 seasons..

Not exactly a small club at 9.5 seasons and that's not counting the golden age shows like my three sons wich lasted 12 seasons or Ozzie and Harriet that went 14 seasons

And just for the record the jeffersons and fraiser were spin offs

And? Many of those shows count as modern and its a big list at 1 of 36 so you just showed its not a super-mega once in a lifetime deal like you were making it out to be 

 A milestone yes but let's not exaggerate it as a unique occurrence

I did't say it was a super-mega once in a lifetime deal or that it was a unique.  and all TV Shows since the 1950s are modern and as TV in the U.S has only be around for like 70 years. some shows on those list are fomr the 1950s.  We been living in modern times since 1500.  But of course TV hasn't been around that long. 

And I don't get your big list of 1 of 36 comment.

So basically you don't like Leonard because he takes to much abuse but you favor the person who dishes out most of the abuse to everyone else.... That's pretty messed up reasoning

And how do you get a year long Howerdette arc when the season is more than half over

I never said the reasons i love Sheldon for includes him insulting Leonard . It's actually one of the few things i don't quite  like about Sheldon (when he's doing it on purpose).

No , i don't think that's messed up reasoning at all. If we were talking serious abuse, like domestic violence or bullying, obviously i'd be on the victim's side.
But what Sheldon does is not really abuse in my opinion. He says mean stuff to people a lot and occasionally does mean stuff (shoving a pie in Leonard's face) - his friends can: 
1. stop being friends with him
2. explain to him why what's he doing is wrong and set up clear boundaries about what he shouldn't do and what they absolutely won't tolerate.
3. Do the same to him (Howard was fighting back in the Parking Spot Escalation episode... Why couldn't Leonard shove a pie in Sheldon's face?

I've said that many times but I've always thought Penny has been pretty much the only one who could always set up her boundaries and tell Sheldon to F off when needed, and stand up for herself ( i don't know why the writers changed that in S9, and how they went from 9x4 "we can think of him like he's our dog" to Penny tolerating toilet paper fines from Sheldon in 9x12)

Howardette baby will probably be born in the first episodes of S10, and a few episodes will be heavily about that - them managing to navigate their daily life now that they have a baby. I think that would last till maybe episode 7-8, which would be middle of november, and 9x16 is middle of Febraury, so to me  it's almost a year.

Well, you did say you were tired of the whining. That's not so complimentary either, to a whole set of people.  L/P fanciers still care about the show or they'd be absent. So they count, even if they only watching to turn over or wade through the rubble of their crumbled dreams and find scraps of the past to treasure.

And of course married people are funny too. It's not like they have transcended or anything. Better be careful about wishing for Shamy nuptials. :)  


Ofc married couples can be funny. But in my opinion (which is just an opinion... ) Leonard from the beginning was made too "normal" to be super hilarious now that his super-nervous-over-Penny days are over. I was just rewatching S1 the other day and i remember the scene when Leonard was asking Penny out and when he was sweating through his shirt so badly, i laughed out loud, and throughout their whole date (i think it was 1x3), he was so funny/cute. I don't remember laughing as much in Leonard's moments in later seasons.

And me personally i could do fine without Shamy's wedding ; ) However i stand by my opinion - the wedding is usually the culmination of the story, at least it's usually seen like that for casual viewers. As a Shamy, i'd watch them until season 16 doing the smallest things - but i do believe once they're married, they inevitably would become less interesting for the general public... I think that's just how the tv and entertainment industry works. If it wasn't for that, FRIENDS writers wouldn't stall Ross and Rachel so much, not only get together in the finale of the series.

So only 36 Sitcoms out of more then 250 sitcoms 
 

Some of the much earlier shows were filming year round...36 or more episodes a season.  There was no mid-season finale, no winter premiere, no DVD, no summer programming.  If TBBT ends after season 10, they will have logged 231 episodes.  IMHO, quite impressive in the modern era.

sitcom were never filmed year around. Yes they use to have more back in the 1950s and 1960s and a lot of times. but they  usually had still at least a 2 months break. They didn't take as much time off  during a season back then as they do now.  

 

Again we live in the modern era. Our grandparents were born in the modern era.

Fair point, i tried to express my opinion but it may have come off as rude. However i do believe Chrismo was much ruder. Doesn't matter anyways cause i've seen him be rude to most Shamy shippers in this thread, so i don't take it personally.

But in my opinion (which is just an opinion... ) Leonard from the beginning was made too "normal" to be super hilarious now that his super-nervous-over-Penny days are over.

Exactly why Lenny should of got Married in the series final. Thanks for being more clear. I understand your point of view now
