Ship Zone [Spoilers] Shamy: Season 10

[April]

- I like the way he defended Amy, not sure if that whole piece of dialogue was showing in a way that Sheldon was acknowledging that his greatest achievement is not his work but being with Amy or that Sheldon was more using it to throw something that Bert might be jealous of back into this face. Maybe a bit of both?

- The gang made a little bit of fun once again about their relationship, but it wasn't anywhere near as nasty as for example in the Love Spell Potential and was just a cheap gag. You could tell for a second Amy didn't like it but then she shrugged it off and why should she deep down care? She's shacked up with the love of her life.

I loved that with these two scenes they basically both got a snippet defending their relationship.

Amy can be snarky towards Sheldon when he's an ass with her "questioning my life choices" comment but the moment Leonard makes the same quip she's giving him a disapproving look. And when Raj leaves them out of his "happy couple" list she speaks up as well. (Also, FU Raj, on Valentine's day you were crying over how happy they are!)

Meanwhile in Bert's office it's his relationship with Amy that springs Sheldon into action and try to get a raise out of Bert. And then when Bert's saying he can do better now and thus implying Amy is somehow inferior now that triggers Sheldon's attack. I really have a hard time reading it any other way than him defending their relationship with a "How dare you!" in form of a Kirk karate chop.

But I think there was also signs there of Sheldon trying to come to terms with his jealousy and trying to resolve them himself, for example the scene when he goes to Bert's office and they talk it out was under his own initiative and would NEVER have happened with early era Sheldon.

THIS! Some people are saying "Well, is nothing new. This could have happened at any point!" and I feel like... nah. Aspects of it? Sure. Like Sheldon holding up his relationship with Amy to make Bert jealous I can see that happening in S8 maybe. But Sheldon trying to work through his emotional issues with jealousy on his own behalf? Yeah, no. He would have had his temper tantrum. Or maybe pretend that he's fine with it (like when Leonard went away at the end of S6). But actively working through his feelings? Not really.

Like, with the scene in Bert's office Sheldon of old would have probably stuck to his professional accomplishments and we'd gotten another rant about why Geology is not a real science and Physics is superior and Sheldon would have rationalised his reaction somehow and not learned anything.

Yeah it was great to see them defending their relationship, though with the advancement and developments in regards to their relationship especially this season they probably care less or should care less of what others think. And hell yeah to a big FU to Raj! I know it was just a cheap gag and as soon as he delivered the first few words of that dialogue you just knew it was coming. But still FU Raj! lol

Yeah I think that is what they were trying to make it come across as in Bert's office. On a side note it made me laugh at seeing the two standing in front of each other, Sheldon towers over the rest of the gang but not Bert that guy is huge (though I think the actor has lost quite a lot of weight since we first saw him on the show).

Totally agree. If you went back and watched an early episode Sheldon especially ones where he shows major jealousy (there was a few) and then watch last night's episode you can see a major difference. I think the scene also with them going to see Ellen is another pretty big example of the change.

Hey all ! Just watched the episode ! ( had no internet most of yesterday - I was scared I'd miss loads !!! ) 

It was a funny ep, not my favourite this season but then we are very spoiled with Shamyness season 10 , so I'm not complaining  

You've all covered it so well , I agree with you guys , loved the "married" approach that the writers have with Shamy awwww, so cute, they are so comfortable with each other and the hand hold just shows us the writers really are hammering home how they are so causal about all the touching hugs etc now and on even footing too ! This makes me a very happy bunny !

Loved that the writers once again made Penny into the "nanny" , no beating round the bush with Sheldon it was a brisk "wtf" that sometimes only a Mum /Nanny can deliver ......Amy went down the girlfriend/wife/lover gentle route and this time it wasn't what was needed BUT I still love they had her take that approach and not Pennys - again driving home Amy NOT mothering him ! Also LOVE Amy's  sass at Penny's approach working - good on her - you tell him ( and Penny) !!!! Although in the end it was Amy's  words that he took on board let's not forget ! Sheldon realises in the end , even if it took him a while with Stephen Hawkings help to figure that out !!!!

Anyway - looking forward to getting more info on Tuesday if possible !!!!! Back to future actor ( what his name again ?!) posted a pic from a trailer, did he tape a scene on location last taping ?!! This week Cast selfie with Stuart but no Amy or Leonard ?? ......what's happening next tape !! I'm no good spoiler free lol !!!! Fingers crossed for some Shamy sexy time , I feel the need for at least a passionate kiss ..........

I also liked so much the hand-holding, because I think we've never seen them holding hands this way, with their hands on Sheldon's knee and Amy's hand over Sheldon's one. I don't know why, I found it very sweet...

I think CL was in the trailer they use as a dressing room for the guest stars; which lead to the question...was he in costume yet? Because, if he was, put a tool belt on him and he looks exactly like an apartment manager or the landlord of the guy's apartment (it would make sense, connected with the renovations\exchange of collectable in the episode)...So curious about 10.10, I'm not good at being spoiler free either!! As for the cast selfie, I think Kaley and Jim are not in that scene, there were no chairs for them to simulate car seats, so probably Sheldon, Amy, Penny and Leonard will be doing something else while the others are in the car. Well...I know what I want Shamy to be doing , LOL!!!

Ah , thank you - that makes sense about a car scene ! Oh you know I'm with you on where we want Shamy to be and what we want them doing !!!! LOL  

I didn't realise they had trailer for guests - I know if he's in costume that would totally fit with a landlord !

Oh man I really hope we get spoilers next tape !!!!!

Oh Amen to the passionate kiss!

Okay, I am not complain , we have had lovely hugs, cuddles, peck on lips, holding  hands, touches on shoulders as Sheldon needs confort, oh well

As we dont know how long would coitus  be off the table snd we know they make out and enjoy that , we need to see a passionate kiss. We deserv it by now *fan self*

Obviously this ep wasn't as good as the previous ones but there was some cute minuscule Shamy in it.

The best part for me was Sheldon defending Amy to Bertram Kibbler. Loved that! Also loved Amy getting Sheldon to read Bert's paper. Her comment about their one night of coitus was nice. Plus cute handholding and some nursing back to health!

For some reason Sheldon asking Amy "You really want me to read Bert's paper?" striked me as a very couple-y thing to do which I really liked.

I wasn't bothered by Penny getting Sheldon out of his funk. I put it in the same category with Leonard's sexy talk. Not sure she succeeded though.

I always love me some "Shamy against the world" so even though ideally they shouldn't care I also can't help but think it's great when they stick up for each other. Especially now when they're in such a good place. <3

Indeed. I think there's a streak of humility and self awareness in Sheldon now that allows these stories to go into a slightly different direction. He's dealing with it in a more mature way (once someone makes him stop whining with some strong words anyway lol) and he's trying to work through this without relying on the others telling him what to do - and I liked Leonard's little "he's learning on his own" pointing that out.

Reminded me of this - just the other way around and of course less monumental because that's now normal:

[sam25233]

To Raj- STFU. What do you even know about a loving relationship, you complete arse. What sheldon and amy have is a connection on a much deeper level, certainly more than Lenny (my opinion, don't kill me). Just having frequent sex does not make a relationship successful. But if Raj knew that, he wouldn't be such a failure, would he?

Sorry, I needed to rant. Nice episode. Hoping for some spoilers on tuesday, for the sake of my sanity. 

[kerrycec03]

What I loved about the Raj moment about not being jealous of their relationship was SHELDON face.  He was like WTF!  And I was so happy to see this.  Since that whole scene played as a playback to me to earlier seasons (which I appreciate the nod) I was happy to see that BOTH Sheldon & Amy are defensive of their relationship.  Long gone are the days of Amy defending it solo.  They are a partnership.  And silly Raj idolizes maybe the physical beauty of the Bernadette/Penny, BUT that's because he isn't there yet if that makes sense.  Both girls last year were attractive and Raj is like a dog with a bone on that stuff. JUST recently we saw him look outside the box for love.

Wow I actually didn't notice that but looking at a clip of it just now and pausing it you are right, Sheldon does give him a bit of a glare after Raj said 'sure'. Amy's response and body language was what stood out in that conversation when I viewed it this morning but you are right Kerry, Sheldon didn't like that jibe at all either. Good spot!

adding also did anybody else LOVE that it was Amy who called out Penny loosing her "hot girl" image with cutting her hair.....I don't know years of being the ugly duckling one it was another nice Amy for the win moment because everyone agreed with her especially after her relationship was put out there by Raj sorta.  Just loving the strong/confident Amy.  Again YEARS ago she would have NEVER insulted Penny in the looks department sorta...

It has been a theme this season, Amy appears to be more on an even footing with Penny. There seems to be less Penny hero worship but their friendship seems to have gotten a lot stronger - maybe the living changes not only benefited the Sheldon/Amy relationship but also the PAmy friendship as well? Hell Amy is also interacting with Leonard a LOT more which can only be good.

There were times when she would never have delivered such lovable snark to Penny lol. That bitch cell comment I laugh every single time I think about it lol and some of the other comments this season would rarely have been said in the past. Of course you also had Penny having her back with the secret in 10.7. They may never feel like full equals but they are closer to it this season.

Just another aspect of why this season is so frelling good.

Once upon a time, I think Sheldon would have just brushed that aside and thought "Who cares what they think? Ours is a relationship of the mind." (The Love Spell Potential comes to mind). But it seemed like he was genuinely insulted. That paired with his reaction to Bert's comment about being too good for Amy shows me that he truly is proud of his relationship now. It makes me happy 

[serena_1995]

Yeah, I really wanted Raj to fuck off. It reminds me of why I don't like his character many times .  After Amy went out of her way to put FWF on hold to care for his relationship fuckery  (which btw was his own fault)  AND took his side against Emily(which made no sense whatsoever from a female perspective  ) you would think he would be a bit more appreciative and nice to his friends. I get that he doesn't envy Shamy but, it is still not a very nice thing to make a dig about it in front of them .  And people say Sheldon is the only one who is the socially unaware hurtful jackass. Lmao. Look who is a jackass now ? Hint : its Raj. Lol. 

But I  like that this season both Sheldon and Amy are defending each other . Last weeks episode Amy defended Sheldon to Lenny and declared her love for him, this episode Sheldon sticks up for Amy when Bert insults her. Nice balance, I guess. 

[heres2U]

Good morning everyone.  I totally agree with all of your astute observations about the episode last night.  With all the recent Shamy goodness of Season 10, sweet little tidbits last night were fine.  Remember the old days when we were dying for any little sign of affection in an episode, and then rehashed it for days?  The times have changed.....

OK, now to my dilemma......I have a standby ticket for the next taping on Tuesday.  I have only ever gone with a guaranteed ticket.  I think with this big episode taping (probably the birth) a standby person will have to be there really early to get in (like 8-830 am).  Wouldn't you know that I now have a work meeting in Orange County that morning.  I wouldn't be able to get to the studio til noon.  So if there is anyone else from the forum that is going, I am going to pass.  BUT if no one else is going, I'm wondering if anyone who lives in the LA area would like to get there early and hold a spot til I can get there???  Just putting that out there.  I'd love to give the ticket to someone else, but they wont let you do that anymore!!!!  Feel free to DM me if you have any info

I heard that there were no spoilers this week, so I figured it’s safe to stick my head in here to see what people think of the episode I got to attend. It looks like everyone saw things pretty much the way I did, so I don’t have much to add. There were some funny moments and zinging one-liners, and the Shamy bits were sweet. It’s definitely filler, though, relative to other recent episodes.

Like many of you have said, the way Amy has been written this season is fantastic. She’s funny, quirky, confident, and they’ve even let her do science stuff again. Switching Sheldon into the role of the person who pushes their relationship forward has helped provide a refreshing change. It felt like Amy’s characterization was a bit off last season, and it’s been so wonderful to have her back, even more snarky than ever!

- It's a bit annoying that that one scene really played out as Penny only being able to get him out of his funk (the TR kinda felt a bit different, but that's always the danger) but it felt very mothering him (like when Mary is fed up with Sheldon) and I liked that Amy isn't swallowing her annoyance, if nothing else because it tells me the show very aware of what it's doing here.

Your whole post is a good read, but I want to drop a friendly reminder in here that writing a TR is difficult. No matter how much detail is included, someone will always read the wrong thing into it or misinterpret it. That’s one of the reasons that I know some folks who attend choose not to write one at all. 

I chose to stick very strictly to the facts of the episode as best as I could recall—what was said and what happened. Since it is subjective, I left my interpretations of line delivery, character motivation, and tone of a scene out on purpose, and then included all of that in separate posts from the TR to help clarify when people started making panicky assumptions. Opinions mixed into a TR are apt to cause even worse misunderstandings (imagine if a Shenny shipper wrote one…), so I don’t regret doing it that way. If that was annoying, then so be it, I guess. It's worth keeping in mind that the show always needs to be seen to get a proper feel for it. 

Anyway, I’ve really enjoyed browsing the discussions in this thread since I don’t usually get to do that as a spoiler free fan. It’s been an awesome Shamy season, and I’m going to keep my fingers crossed for more greatness in December’s upcoming episodes. It’s less than a month until Amy’s birthday, after all

Oh no, that wasn't an accusation or anything. As I said there's always the danger that a TR doesn't match the final cut of the episodes - it doesn't matter if it's someone misremembering or a scene got cut or simply plays out differently than it reads. It's just the way it is. And when I get annoyed it's either at myself for clinging to a certain scene or imagining it a certain way and then it doesn't live up to what I wanted. Or I'm annoyed at the show for cutting a line or using a different take than the one I would have preferred.

But you're just the messenger here and it's really not your fault. You did a wonderful job with your TR and I'm immensely grateful for whenever we get some information from the tapings. <3

If I could have liked this post more than once I would have. I so agree with you on Raj and his inability to know what a loving relationship is. And I won't kill you for your opinion of Lenny, I have begun to feel that way for a while now.

 

I really liked this episode and I know that it may have been a filler but it was a quality filler, in my opinion, over some of the others they have had in the past. I love the way Amy took care of him without a thought in the world and the hand holding was just so sweet.

I think Penny telling Sheldon to just get over it was perfect because the others were trying to coddle him though I do get Amy being like really? Once again Penny gets him and she didn't(come on writers, Amy could have told him to get over it....just like in Romance Resonance when she was the only one to tell him she wasn't proud of him....it was what he needed to hear) Amy easily could have said get over it and he would have listened to her just as much.

I think Sheldon has grown but is still Sheldon. He was envious of the attention Bert was getting. If he had gotten the same award can you imagine how he would have been....again remember Romance Resonance? Ugh I could not have taken that again....so him going to Bert at the end was great.

I do question this though....why would Bert say he could do better than whom he called the most popular girl on campus? I didn't get that line except for the fact Sheldon had to stick up for her which was so cute.

Why on earth does it matter that Bert thinks he can do better ?  He is not dating Amy. And Amy is not interested in him and loves Sheldon. Bert can date whoever he wants.He is single. Or.....are you shipping Bert and Amy ? Just kidding Lol. Although Bert will probably get a lot of girls now, if he won half a million dollars .

I guess the award he received is fairly prestigious and the fame from that coupled with $500k he can spend on whatever he wants means he can go out into the wider world and try and find someone for him. I think it's a good thing that he has switched his attention away from Amy, it would have been awkward if he does start to have a bit of a friendship with Sheldon or Amy that those feelings were still lingering in the background.
