JE7 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Drags out? Actually I am enjoying season 9 as much as any other. With all due respect your a Sheldon fan and it has become a Sheldon centric show what's not for you to like? For those of us who prefer other charectors it is not so enjoyable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djsurrey Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 None of that matters in either my or nibblers scenario they don't have to build to or justify it although many think they are doing so. One scenario, Last scene last ep Shenny are together for whatever reason/device/plot bunny they chose to use, simple as that done deal no appeals, all over, see ya bye Most likely simply for shock value After all Newhart the entire series was just a dream of Bob Newharts charecter from his first show. Hell Penny could wake up with Charlie sheen and kill two birds (shows) with one stone that would keep Lorrie's name recognition up there for years No not Charlie Sheen!

3ku11 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Why are we presuming it well be a shock finale? Other then Leonard waking up and its a dream. I dont see any other scenario. I see finalie being Penny pregnant. Leonards the father lol. I just think its very unlikely lenny and shamy wont be in the finale. Lets do.a decade show. Then tell the audience none of it meant anything in The final. Ummm yeah dont see it happening. Jenas right Leonard and Penny are perfect for each other. As is Shamy. That was the point of Intimacy Acceleration. Unless evidence comes to light. S10 well be last. And it well.end. Being a series final. I.can't imagine the forum then LOL.

For those of us who prefer other charectors it is not so enjoyable Who's to say I don't like all the characters? Guests too! I'll admit is does not bother me if any of someone or some couple gets shorted. I kind of go with the flow. There is a lot of depth of characters here. By the way I liked Lucy and Alex as well. I'm not going to bleed over them getting cut out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your first sentence ask the question and the rest answer it In the positive as you state you don't care what happens to them if they get shorted/cut so would you feal the same if Sheldon got shorted/cut?

No Regrets Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 From jenafan: I see no issue with the Sheldon and Penny hugging. Sheldon has gone from hating it to only finding it irritating. That's a far cry from freely grabbing Amy's hand, kissing, putting his arm around her, and having sex. I don't even really see the issue with Penny being the one to console Sheldon in the bathroom. It's what she does, while it is more important to Leonard and Amy to fight over who's pantless state ranks higher on the best one to comfort Sheldon list. Amy and Leonard have no reason to distrust Penny or Sheldon being alone together, so why would it concern them to wonder what is going on behind the door other than the fact that Penny beat them to the consolation punch? I also see no issue with the whole hugging situation. We say they're friends but then cry foul when they act like it? Seems strange to me. If Penny would have said "You're my favorite person" (as it was first reported), that I would've had a big issue with. But she just says he's one of her favorite people. Well, how could he not be? It's been Penny, Leonard and Sheldon for years now. They share a tight - albeit highly dysfunctional and frustrating - bond. Sheldon and Penny's relationship is so asexual that to me it's just as likely for Leonard and Sheldon to suddenly realize their undying love for one another. A few episodes ago Penny thought of Sheldon as her dog. If that translates into something sexual I'd say we have other things to worry about. <g> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

luminous Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Just breath people. Leonard and Penny are the endgame and had been since the Pilot. Shamy and Lenny are endgame, even if they have to go through some hurdles along the way. I second that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JE7 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Honestly I believe Lennie and Shamy are endgame I don't think they will pull a shock ending although they could I just enjoy the debate, more than the show itself at this point in time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will any of you ever watch another CL sit-com again? Will many casual viewers that have spent some nice nights with a gang of friends to discover that at they end up all messed up (since you can't have Shenny without messing up with the all gang) watch any other CL sit-com? He has done something strange with TAAHM finale (I'm told, I never watched that sit-com) but doing it with TBBT would be a financial disaster for him.

Nogravitasatall Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) Ross and Rachel were endgame the whole series. Then BAM Joey..... and how did that work out again? Heheh TBH, expecting mini-spinoffs of L/P and Amy and Sheldon depicted in the show is likely futile. The premise is about Leonard, Sheldon and the girl across the hall. They won't wander too far from that and if it stops working for TPTB they will commission a different show. Expecting Amy to monopolise Sheldon and Leonard to monopolise Penny - despite them being married - is an unrealistic expectation of what they will show onscreen. I think. Frustrating, isn't it. I know I'm over my expectations. But I am happy the science loving, sports averse, book reading, sci-fi fanciers get such a big popular airing. When I stand back from my pile of crumbled expectations, that is. I have been lucky to have this show, for all its imperfections.

To play devil's advocate your still watching a CL sitcom after he did something similar on TAAHM. If they are not invested in this show it wont matter to them just as that does not matter to you And after the show ends all the money comes from syndication which will not be affected by one episode even the last episode TAAHM syndication deals were made before the finale was written much less aired Edited February 11, 2016 by JE7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JE7 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 What they are you talking about? You didn't watch TAAHM neither did I the audience for a CL sitcom is not one big group each show rises or fails on its own and the vast majority, that is the casual viewers don't pay attention to who writes or produces a show so it dosent matter to them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is Sheldon such high on the list out of all the guys? That Penny could date. What's so special about Sheldon lol. Ppl think PENNY would do that to Leonard? Yeah they understand the characters. I see Penny and Raj tbh before Sheldon. In any case she loves Leonard. I honestly cant understand where Shenny started. I get their scenes bla bla. Watching s2 still dont get it. On different wave lengths. They understand each other vmore. But I think Pennys just protective of Him like a mother would. But because of their fundamental differences and lack of romantic undertone. It well forever confuse me. But I have no issue with the scribe. Sounds kinda sweet tbh. Its so assexual their relationship its not funny. But this has been said to be death lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JE7 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Once again skull your talking about the charecters like they are real people who make their own choices.

Shortened; It kind of seems inevitable. They are paying Johnny and Kaley the same. It surprised me this did not happen in the second half of season 8. cut; that's just crazy talk. That would be like Richard Dean Anderson leaving SG-1. Wait, he did leave but that was to spend time with his daughter. Anyone can be replaced -- except perhaps Richard Dean Anderson. If/when the day comes that I loose interest in TBBT I'm not coming on here to talk about that. I'd be some place else enjoying something else.

djsurrey Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Some People on here are so afraid that The Producers of The Big Bang Theory are gong to pull a Roseanne or HIMYM lol. They can't trust the writers for some reason Just breath people. Leonard and Penny are the endgame and had been since the Pilot. They are Married now which should be enough prof that they have absolutely no plan of putting Sheldon and Penny together. The whole idea form the start was the Nerd trying to get the Hot Girl next door and now he has her. Penny has always been impulsed by Sheldon (And Sheldon visa versa) and has never ever shown any sort of sexual desire for Sheldon. she is not suddenly going to do a 360 in one episode. True over time they became less Frenemy and more became more Friends in the last couple years but that it. they are brother and sister. Sheldon even told Penny she was like a Sister. But again that it. There are example;es of TV Shows where Two Characters who started out as Enemies ended up becoming Friends alter on That happens sometimes in real Life too. Penny has always been the Maternal person of the group and like a sister to all the other guys Jim and Mayim were not happy when they broke Sheldon and Amy up. Johnny was not happy when they had Penny and Raj sleep together. The Writers know how fans feel about the Couples on the Show and are not going to do anything to hurt or change the couples not he show or the show itself. Bill has always said that the idea of Shenny was just fanasty and that it would never happen. I agree with the bold part. As far as L/P being endgame from the start. I really don't think the shows creators were thinking about endgame at the start. Now in season 9 I figure the show will do a lot better in long term syndication if the shipper fans are not disappointed in the end..
