Ship Zone [Spoilers] Shamy: Season 10

[koops]

I'm trying to keep an open mind because the writers have been superb with Shamy this year so I feel like I owe them the benefit of the doubt, since I feel like this is a plot that could potentially be very good. 

I remember when the rumors about Shamy's cohabitation experiment came out I was expecting Amy to trick a feet-dragging Sheldon to get him to live with her and lots of trite shenanigans and instead it was one of the best episodes ever. Same with Veracity Elasticity. I feel like this too is a plot that could serve itself to a lot of classic TBBT trite crap but at the same time could be amazing if done right. So I'll wait to see what happens, given their track record this season. 

Sheldon has never lived alone and this could be great for him to definitely conclude he doesn't need his "escape hatch" anymore. Amy can get some good career plot out of this and Sheldon learning to support her in it would be also great. And they're going to miss each other and the reunion will be likely amazing whenever it happens. Going from living together 24/7 to being apart 24/7 is something they never had to deal with before.

In the DT it was mentioned Amy's project will last 2-3 months, so just for the hiatus. At this point, given also the way the press release was worded, maybe we'll see Shamy interacting just through Skype in the finale...

Some have been speculating that Sheldon might move back into his old room in 4A while Amy is gone.  Sheldon would be especially vulnerable to a Ramona revenge plot if L/P put their collective foot down and refused to let him move back.

Sheldon's descent into madness and then they can send Amy to the rescue! lol

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA and it would give Amy something to do! She could play the hero, like I've been wanting for her for some time! Basement of the building, Ramona relating her diabolical plan, about to press 'send' on an email in Sheldon's name where he confesses to spilling state secrets...... and suddenly all the lights go out, and all you hear is the Doctor Who theme played on the harp! And the click of a torch lighting up Amy's face as she says 'Not today, Missy.' While Sheldon gazes adoringly at her and says 'Took you long enough' or something appropriately ungracious, while Amy nods a brisk 'You're welcome, babe' or something.

LMAO that would be funny . Perfect! I really want Amy to do that 

I will give Ramona points for defending Sheldon against Leslie though. 

Leslie: So, Sheldon, I see you’re organizing your papers for the Smithsonian Museum of Dumbassery.

Ramona: There won’t be any room until they get rid of the permanent Leslie Winkle exhibit.

That was brilliant dialogue .

You are right, they deserve the benefit of the doubt and shouldn't be judged until we have seen those final two episodes. Especially when they have had a fantastic season up to this point with a lot of relationship growth and progress.

Apologies to everyone for my extremely heated and negative response to spoilers earlier. I should have kept my metaphorical gob shut until i had actually watched the episodes. Fears or concerns may end up unfounded.

[koops]

Ok, if it's only 2-3 month then I doubt Sheldon will move back into 4A. Or if he does it will be just on the odd occasion he feels lonely. A scene where he gets ready for bed and then looks longingly at Amy's side of the bed or puts his iPad there while he skypes her could be cute.

Don't worry! we are in this all together as Shamy fans!

Or he's snuggling with her pillow. Heck, I can even see him having trouble sleeping without her and maybe staying a night in his old room for comfort but then realise that doesn't help either.

No worries. I felt in same way earlier and now I am ready for the next two episodes, whatever they bring to shamy. They and we will make it as we have each other for sharing our worries and hopes about all of this.

So u want Sheldon to suffer ? But show nothing from Amy's side , how the separation  affects her ?  This would be nothing but using Amy as a plot device to go...."Look how it affects Sheldon ". Season 9 break up all over again. 

I don't like clingyness. I have already seen that when Leonard went away and Sheldon was missing him. 

[Anita]

So much to catch up, i'll have to give up to sleep. In my opinion, one of them cheating , either, is breaking  the couple forever. I don't see them of those who forgive  infidelity 

[mirs1]

I'd rather want Sheldon alone in 4B than with Lenny in 4A. Before he started living with Amy, I hoped that he stayed by himself for a while after he parted ways with Lenny. Obviously, I was uber-happy for how things turned out, but maybe this can be a good opportunity for him to spend some time alone. And, I can totally see all those cute Skype calls and difficulties in sleeping alone you guys are mentioning. Anyway, knowing the writers, I wouldn't be too surprised, since apparently Raj has already mentioned that (it's also in the DT) if Sheldon returns in 4A. It would be just for the summer and we won't actually see it, since Amy will be back at most by E.2, so I can live with it. Much better Sheldon by himself, though.

Sheldon coming back to 4A, even temporary off screen, would  be a huge step back in my opinion, for the character, for Lenny and if it is on screen for the show

Well, that was just one scenario. And I wouldn't call it "suffering". In my mind you would see both missing each other. Like I said, they have spent a good part of a year living together now and it's natural that they would miss each other. I don't see how that would be clingy.

I just hope it wont happen at all. It would be a huge step back, as Sheldon has proved he is a more  mature guy now. The biggest challenge would be him living alone until Amy be back home imo. Using the skypes for "see" each other and enjoy some time together. I could live with it too but I'd rather see comedy situations of Sheldon living alone time as he shares his adventures to Amy via Skype though.

[koops]

Raj offering the room might also be a way to put the option on the table and have Sheldon refuse and try to stick with living alone. I agree that it's something I would like to see for his character and I bet he has a whole new routine and habits in 4B by now. 

I don't think they would backtrack on the living arrangements after so long and after it went so well. And especially if it's only a 3 month thing, it wouldn't make any sense story wise.

To explain why Shamy ended up in 4B, Molaro said exactly this thing (which BTW was an absolute non-sense, since they were living in that apartment for a few weeks at most): Sheldon got new habits while living 4B and he didn't want to change them again. So, stick with it, Molaro!!!

Agreed, I think it would be a good step for him to live alone for a while should he have to if Amy is indeed away for a few months. It's not like he would be completely alone anyway not with friends across the hall.

I would much prefer Sheldon perhaps socializing with them a little more during the day time and early evenings but at night time staying in 4B on his own than him spending all his time in 4A and staying the night. But the allure of getting the gang back together for a while should Amy not be back for an episode or more might be something the writers are unable to resist.

Better for Sheldon in the long run that he has to try and cope on his own a bit imo. Certainly something more adult about it, plus there are going to be times in the future after Amy is back that she might be doing some work or project at another university or away at a conference and this could be a good test for him. If he can cope with Amy being away for perhaps a few months then something of a shorter duration should be no problem.

I like that there is SO many directions this could potentially go.. Literally anything could happen next week.. You never know, She might even come back. It's nice to have a bit of a mix up with things.

Personally, Im not worried.

Princeton is in new jersey and that is at the other side of the country right? Why is she taking her car? It Is a too long drive for a 2-3 months stay.

I live near Princeton,  to be precise I stay in the NYC metro area. It's almost across the country from California. Why not take a flight ? solitary  cross country road trip? We will have to wait and see .
