The whole cast is, actually. The part I don't really care about is...Sheldon. He's fine, but not why I watch. I see people rave about Missy more than anybody else on social media. Obviously social media represents in reality only a small part of the audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swedish Chef Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 3 hours ago, bfm said: So... Holland said in an interview (TVline?) that there are things many ask about that will be resolved/explained in the last season and some that will remain a mystery. Anybody in for speculating what he was referring to? I can think of these: Penny's maiden name - I'm willing to bet this is one of the things he was talking about. Not sure though if they want to reveal it or leave it a mystery. Howard's father - Another thing I'm quite sure is included in this category. Other things I'm not sure... Maybe tenure, Leslie Winkle seemingly disappearing (yes she suddenly appeared in Sheldon's birthday but that was one time and also OOC), Penny's sister, the elevator never being fixed... But beside the elevator these are minor things I'm not sure TPTB remember or are asked about. Now when Penny is happily married, I don't really see the point in revealing her maiden name so I'm guessing this will be a mystery. Tenure is a another thing I think we will never hear about again. It has nearly gone six years since this episode aired, and we still hasn't heard a thing about it. I do think that there is a possibility that the elevator actually can be fixed sometime in the last season of the series. I highly doubt that we will ever see Penny's sister to be honest. If she couldn't attend Penny's wedding why bother showing up now. (yes, perhaps if Lenny make a roadtrip to Nebraska(highly doubt that) we could perhaps meet her) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Wars, I went to the movies in San Francisco when it came out. Really enjoyed it as well as the next two. Didn't care too much for Episode 1, The Phantom Menace, 2 and 3 were enjoyable. So I enjoyed watching 5 out of the first 6 Star Wars movies. The new ones, I haven't seen and don't intend to see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think Ghostbusters is more relevant to TBBT and YS with references ________________________ edit After some searching I did find a little reference to Pretty in Pink (of course it is Raj talking). From 8.08 Quote Howard: She and Amy are out dress shopping for their prom thing. Raj: Oh, yeah, I got that Evite. Ever since I saw Pretty in Pink, I’ve wanted to go to an American prom. But then I saw Carrie, and I did not want to go to an American prom. But then I saw Never Been Kissed, and I’m back on the prom bandwagon. This prom thing’s been a real roller coaster.

So in countries with British roots when a woman marries she changes her father's name for her husband's name unless she decides otherwise. It's only a cultural thing. Unless someone outside Penny's family needs to address one of her parents, there's no need to bring it up. Mothers' maiden names go on birth certificates when they have children so it may be mentioned if the 'smart and beautiful' babies arrive and Leonard goes to register them. We might also learn Penny's full name, eg if it's Penelope, at the same time. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 18 minutes ago, joyceraye said: Why does it ( the cast in YS turning up in TBBT ) matter ? 18 minutes ago, legacy99 said: If you believe sheldon his dad was a mean drunk.

legacy99 Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 If you maybe have a hit comedy on our hands to you go with the mean drunk character or the rather run of the mill character.
