On several social media posts publicising these pictures and the magazine cover comments that have been made by disappointed fans voicing their displeasure are being deleted.  These are not abusive posts either, just people voicing their disappointment and are being silenced.  Some of these people are die-hard TBBT fans.

Removing these posts is a very poor look indeed.

That's childish behavior, IMO. They've made a choice, they should be able to handle the criticism about it.

I'm amazed Bernie's parents are so tolerant. Yet again Raj and Stuart aren't sitting-in while Howardette gallivant about. A toddler at the into-everything stage and a baby, and goodness-knows how many more grandchildren they have  - -  or did Howard decide after all to engage a cut-price nanny we never see ?

For the puzzled : Bernadette and Howard have two children whose ages are still numbered in months. On Saturday they won't be at the nursery so they must be with their grandparents since their usual sitters, Rajesh and Stuart, are not at home. Howard's initial reaction to the first pregnancy included a suggestion of getting a cheapo nanny.

I think there was sufficient paintball action. Not sure what was expected. It was a vehicle for the couples interactions which linked to the paintball except for the Shamy whining. They didn’t even participate which considering “early seasons”(pre Amy) Sheldon’s dedication to the game was disappointing. Stunise were adorable, Rajanu needed that interaction, Bernie was predictably competitive and is it just me or is she constantly up for sex these days and Lenny were the bit players who let it all unfold around their observations and commentary on the group with just enough time to push Leonard’s insecurity and Penny’s “everything’s fine” attitude. Could be both a subtle lead in to what unfolds next week and a rationale for Leonard’s too quick backdown on the No Kids decision from Penny.

 

Having said all that, I found it one of the funnier episodes of the season

Well, after two exhausting deliveries she will probably know what she's missing. 😉

To be fair, as far as I know and correct me if I'm wrong, it was Prady who deleted some comments, but  he also took a lot of time discussing with some fans about the subject (there was a long discussion that got deleted too). He explained it was not his call and he had had no control over the editorial decision EW made. I get fans were voicing their frustration (which is also mine, I'm not very impressed with that article either) but they devoted it towards the wrong guy. Obviously he didn't want his relationship with EW being jeopardized for something he didn't do...Hopefully, anyway, he now is aware there is a problem and (if he chooses to) can find a way to fix it.

What I got from Jonny's post is that EW deleted comments. I can see why Prady wouldn't like a post where he seems to blame EW out there.

From what I saw online, fans were complaining about Prady himself deleting their posts, but if also EW did that, it is bananas indeed!

Well, my hope is that, after that, Prady might be more aware fans want a full-cast photoshoot and pitches the idea with WB/CBS, for sure he has more voice with them than with a random newspaper. What I think will happen, instead, is that , the complaints will be ignored, as usual. Internet backslash comes and goes...I've seen many hard-core fan accounts being disappointed in the show for some time now, some of them have almost stopped posting, but in the grand scheme of things, this is of no importance to TPTB, they make their "numbers" with casual viewers.

I agree they don't seem to listen what the fans   are saying but there so much backlash over this they will have to listen

I’ve been told having conversations with people who had comments deleted that it wasn’t just the one source.

I don’t think anything will change, you may see other cast members feature in other publications but as a group well I would be surprised if it happens.

A lot of people have wanted a full cast group photo shoot for a long time, final season would have been the perfect time to do it.

In their final season they are not delivering and this is further evidence IMO.

As I've said before to another poster, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

That's something I don't care about. I never wanted to see these kids and they said from the start we wouldn't see the kids. So I am neither unhappy or surprised.

The paintball wasn’t shown until 7:19 on my clock.

But it was talked about earlier. They set up for it. I didn't really expect 17 minutes of paintball.

Why not? She knows she can't get pregnant again!

I don't understand why. I don't understand this.

No, they don't. It's almost over. They're almost done. They don't have to listen to fans at all. They're probably all thinking about their next projects.

Leonard’s words didn’t match his actions  as that storyline ended with Penny’s father upset hearing about no kids. Next weeks episode sounds like it ends with no answer to Zack’s question. I thought it was interesting that you didn’t see Marissa in the clip for next week

I saw a promo where she does appear, next to Zack.

Well I guess this is another reason why Bernadette agreed to marry Howard, she is as big a “Hound-dog” as he is.  We have sure been getting a lot of indications that they have a very active sex life.
