Good evening, night and morning, my fellow Shamies! Thank you for your good taping wishes which were very nice! Soon I will learn how to link your names or someone please teach me :icon_wink:

I am going to let you off the hook here right now for I am afraid that I do not have such good news for you. This taping of Feb 21st, 2018: 1118 “The Gates Excitation” ... braise yourselves ... did not have any Shamy scene in it at all :cry:
But do not be sad. I brought you back some information I believe was speculated about before but was never validated. We got to see 1116 “The Neonatal Nomenclature” before the taping and it started with a scene in the cafeteria where Sheldon actually confirms that he had coitus with Amy 4 times in total (which we all counted as well: 3 birthdays and the Princeton one). So it seems like they are really kind of waiting which is so extremely sweet and actually, yes, very Shamy :-)
I will put together a small taping report tomorrow and post it in the discussion thread. Nightie :)
 

Thanks so much - I hope you had a wonderful time :)

Well I am not surprised that 1118 has no Shamy scenes, Gates was invited after all.

We will see, but Holland was one of the writers of that episode way back in 2012. Episode 5.21.

Will be interesting to see if it shares a similar storyline or themes.

I'm hoping that they're more imaginative than just a rehash. Maybe they won't waste Bill Gate's appearance.

Agree. However I cant help myself of remember they had Christopher Lloyd as guest and it turned out as one of the weakest show plots ever imo.  

I hope truly it is a funny episode but my expectations are low.

If I'm not wrong, they say the episodes are written in cooperation and the credits are divided among the writers regardless of their contribution to the particular episode.

i think if it's a good episode one or two writers take the credit, if it's bad , they probably spread the blame around. The only problem with that thought is they (writers) think all episodes are good. They only know for sure when the fans weigh in with their opinions.

Good PST morning all, can’t sleep as I am still so excited :)

Shamies always get information first :) so after letting last nights events sink in, I think we did get something to go on. It is not much, but it is something!  The Episode took place on and around April 1st so that leaves us with being six weeks before the wedding on May 12th, correct? :)

Here is a tiny subject off topic but I’d like to say it. If you are a true fan of the Big Bang Theory and haven’t been to a taping yet, go! Convince your respective partners, friends and family that it is THE place for you to be. Arrange your schedule to meet taping dates, save money, plan the trip, rob a bank :icon_wink:, plan a wedding or anniversary and move your world, it IS worth it. It is something you will hold dearly for the rest of your life! :)

Will work in the report now; that might take a while. Will try to write it in a neutral style so that everyone can make up their own minds. Hope you are okay with that. Please feel free to ask questions. I will try to answer them :)

Just a question, who, if any of the gang will Penny introduce to Bill Gates? My best guess is Leonard. Reason, probably he will embarrass her the least. Some think Sheldon, because she will knuckle under the pressure he will provide. I don't think Howard or Raj has a snowball's chance in hell to be introduced by Penny. If they meet Bill Gates it will be done thru Bernadette.That's a big maybe, since she won't want to be embarrassed as well.   :icon_biggrin:

Tensor, I'm not sure this is posted in the right thread. I was in this tread and posted without thinking. If I was wrong, I apologize for the bone headed mistake.

So exciting to have Mr. Gates as a guest!!!!  I can't wait to find out what the episode is about and if he is playing himself (we may already have that info, but I'm clueless anyway!!!).  Woo-Hoo for the casting of Mr. Gates and for having him appear on TBBT!!!!!!  (can you guess that I'm looking forward to the episode??????)  Woo-Hoo again!!!!

I'm hoping for him to discuss his previous punching of Sheldon and maybe we get a repeat performance.:icon_twisted:

So glad you had a great time! I am truly jealous. I would love to attend a taping I have never been able to get tickets though 😞. I have heard that is an experience you never forget !

Hi guys, here is my report on 1118 “The Gates Excitation”. Please note that I have tried to write it in a neutral style and did not want to give all the information away. The episode is actually quite funny so I decided to leave most of the jokes for you to enjoy when the episode is being aired. I hope this is okay. I think there are already enough spoilers in this.

The episode starts in 4A with Penny telling everyone that Bill Gates will visit her work place and she gets to spend a whole day with him on April 1st. Everyone is excited about it but Sheldon, who is almost convinced that it is an April fools’ day joke. 

In the next scene Lenny talk about how cool Bill Gates visit really is.

Next we are in Howardette’s living room and see Steward leaving with the kids to go to the park and Amy and Bernadette getting to spend some time together. Bernie is torn between her roles as a mother and a working person. Amy tries to help and suggests that they could go eat something but they end up finishing an episode of Bob the Builder first.

In the next scene Penny finds Sheldon in the laundry room where he is still not convinced that the Bill Gates story is true.

In a pretaped restaurant scene Amy tries to talk with Bernie about something other than children.

Back in 4A Penny tells Leonard, Howard and Raj that she needs to go to work to prepare her day with Gates. Leonard comments that it is a Sunday but then Penny shows him the schedule on her phone and says it is very tight. The guys try to convince her to get them an autograph which she declines. After Penny left Leonard reveals that he saw the hotel where Gates is staying so they all follow her.

In a pretaped scene we see the guys nursing drinks in the hotel lobby when Leonard spots Gates and rushes to greet him.

Back in Howardette’s living room Bernie still contemplates her life while Amy gently tries to make her realise her behavioural changes.

On the stairwell (pretaped) Leonard shows Sheldon a picture of himself and Gates and says Gates is staying in a hotel in Thousand Oaks so Sheldon is immediately off.

When Leonard arrives in 4A, Penny surprises him with the fact that she has arranged a reception where Leonard gets to meet Gates.

Back in Howardette’s living room we hear Bernie reading a story to the kids.

Next Howard, Raj and Leonard are in the Comic Book Store without Stewart when Sheldon enters to confront Leonard that Gates wasn’t staying in Thousand Oaks. When Leonard mentions the Double Tree in Long Beach, Sheldon is immediately off again.

When Penny is about to leave for the reception, Leonard is sick on the couch so she leaves without him.

In another pretaped restaurant scene (sorry, I can’t remember when that took place) Bernie tries to show to Amy that she can actually talk about something other than motherhood.

In a pretaped scene Penny video calls Leonard with Bill Gates in tow.

In the last scene the entrance door of 4A has a sign “I am sorry” which Sheldon finds (first) and thinks it is Leonard’s way of apologising to him. Leonard has arranged for a romantic dinner with candles, roses and food. Sheldon appreciates it and asks “What’s for dinner”? or something like that.

Well, as you might be able to read between the lines there are again some serious topics which they address so they taped some of the scenes three times and changed some of the lines; I guess in order to make it still funny. Me likey :icon_wink: I am all in for character growth. And I think they are doing a good job given the fact that there is only so much they can do in a comedy show.

The pizza was cold again so no news here :sarcastic:

Thanks for the great report @Silver1984 :icon_biggrin:

Can you tell us why Leonard is sorry and has arranged the romantic dinner? Because he couldn't go to the reception?

You are welcome :) Well, Leonard goes behind Penny’s back when they go to the hotel to try to meet Gates which he didn’t tell her. That is why he “had to be” sick for the reception because he had already met Gates
