MsGreentea Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 It is also true that it is a throw-away bone by the writers and producers of both shows. . It probably took them 20 seconds to write the dialogue. It doesn’t matter because they don’t ever have to write it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShamyScience Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 Shamy was pretty much endgame from the beginning. Paleyfest 2018 - Prady and Lorre on the origin of the name Amy Farrah Fowler Quote Prady: „She’s Amy, because it means beloved, loved“ Lorre: „...Farrah Fawcett“ Prady „...and you added the middle name of Farrah, you liked the rhythm of it. And Fowler to go with Cooper, because they’re both english profession names...so that they matched“ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleyfest 2018 - Prady and Lorre on the origin of the name Amy Farrah Fowler IIRC, she was supposed to be kind of a one time(/few times) gag, a female Sheldon, that's why they looked for a matching name. But it worked so well and the rest is history. Edited October 17, 2018 by bfm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Die Zimtzicke Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 On 10/15/2018 at 8:04 PM, 3ku11 said: Another point to consider. Is future syndication. They want to make money off this series for decades to come. Only way I see a divorce is if they are jumping the shark. I just don’t think they would risk passing off a certain subset of the fan base. And risk all of that. As it is. I see no evidence of such. I have been giving this more thought and I don't think this is a major consideration. Many old shows do well in syndication that had things happen that the fans who were watching then didn't like. In syndication the show may have fans later on that didn't watch at all when it was on originally. Maybe even fans who weren't even alive them it was on, They will watch with a different eye, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrismo Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 Seems to be difficult to tell what’s going on with Lenny. They are on the couch wearing two different sets of clothes. It looks like the one when Leonard is looking at the mail is later in the episode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has be two divorces (parents) and one annulment already. Quote Beverly Hofstadter: Speaking of fathers, Leonard, I'm divorcing yours. Leonard: What? Beverly Hofstadter: Yes, he was cheating on me. Leonard: No. Beverly Hofstadter: Yes. With some waitress from the university cafeteria. Can you believe it? A waitress! Oh, no offense dear!

So Alfred got tired of the cold hearted, loveless bitch and found someone better. She divorced him and they are happily apart. I'm reasonably sure if George Sr hadn't died Mary would have eventually got tired of his drunken, cheating ways and divorced him as well.

I'm not sure how important the parents divorces were to the show. Same goes for the annulment. A season 12 divorce would be remembered.

Honestly, I also would think they had her on sporadically to test the reactions at first cause that's how they work in general. If the audience didn't take to Amy they would have written her out (maybe even without much fuss like they did with Bernie for a while). But I have never seen an actual interview confirm this, hence my inquiry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I heard this in one of the numerous previous interviews with Lorre and/or Prady in one of the DVD specials. Or on the occasion of one of the ComicCon panels. Maybe Mr. Data Tensor can help us. 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
