Leonard got everything he wanted and more 👍. Long journey and no could of played Leonard my fav character since Day 1 other then Johnny. But of course that’s the same for the whole cast.

The Hand Print ceremony today is going to be interesting. 😁 And not sure if anyone else noticed, but Johnny spoiled us (probably by accident) on Instagram days ago.

'The Big Bang Theory tapes its 279th and final episode'

https://ew.com/tv/2019/04/30/the-big-bang-theory-tapes-final-episode/  

"Some parts of the finale will feel just like another week in the wacky world of Big Bang: Yes, Sheldon (Jim Parsons) wears a superhero T over a long-sleeved shirt, a few old friends stop by, and Leonard (Johnny Galecki) has plenty of fun poking at his longtime roommate. But in between solid jokes about sex, apartment decor, childcare and food, there are some tender and very unexpected surprises. And there’s at least two revelations that no one will see coming."

But speculations can be posted, right ? How about one of the actors who come out to bow is an elevator repair man ? 

If we can't speculate anymore, then it is better I say good bye in advance.  Even to be honest, I cant believe in 16 days we wont see any spoil around...the show would benefit with it, always.

I suppose so. This time next year we'll know all about it and we'll be looking back to this time, remembering the anticipation.

That's interesting. Kaley said the finale was all going to be pretaped and shown to an audience so they could record the laughs. Sounds now as though some of it was performed live as usual.

Well i truly hope that these unexpected surprises and the at least two revelations are just that surprises and revelations. But i have a feeling we on this forum have probably mentioned them at some point in during speculation over what might happen.

But i hope i am wrong and we are all truly surprised

If it’s a twist maybe Penny gives birth. That’s the only surprise revelation I can think of as a swerve.

If Stuart got his own apartment that would be a nice twist or a nice surprise, however you want to put it.

Also Raj was wearing a sweater vest 🤔 I’m thinking Flash back !

Or flash forward - perhaps both Raj and Stuart are solvent again so they each get a new place to live, or share a big one. I don't know what a sweater vest is.

I think it's a sleeveless jumper, like what cricketers wear.

Ah!  Fashion!

Seems like I've missed a lot... Ugh, work. Now I'm dying to know what was in the spoiling videos/pictures.

It is weird to see this ending. After so many years, it kind of felt like it was going to go on forever, even with the (cognitive) knowledge that it is ending. 

Am I sad? I don't know... I think it was certainly time. I also kinda stopped watching this season after it had upset me too much. Still, I loved this show in earlier seasons, I love those characters, I still write them and have head-fanfics (fics I imagine but don't write since I don't have the time) with them and I've been in this forum for over two years (time flies!) and made web-friends. I won't go more into it all because we still have two weeks. Right now the more dominant feeling for me is the sadness for them, more of an empathetic sadness. Their strong emotions are so evident in every picture, video, audio, and word published these last days. This video of Kaley talking... Wow.

After reading that article I'm guessing that the unexpected visitor could be either Howards father or a repair man for the elevator. The huge happening they talk about could very well be the Shamy Nobel prize and the giant announcement is of course Amy being pregnant.Raj marrying Anu would be the major life step,could also be Stewart marrying Denise. That was my guess what will happen in the final episode, we will soon find out if I'm right or wrong.

Or simply announces a pregnancy. That would be good enough for all the Lenny folks correct?

These are all  good speculations but I cannot believe they will give Shamy a Nobel prize and have Amy pregnant.  One of the revelations could be Penny being pregnant.  One clip I read was that Kaley and Johnny doing a scene and Johnny almost in tears. I hope for a good reason

Have just been overwhelmed with sadness by all the clips, quotes and reports on the last taping.  Did not think I would feel so sorrowful at this happening. But at least we have great memories, syndication and dvd's to keep those memories alive.
