No

That sucks...I had a feeling they would do a baby for Lenny and Nobel for Shamy. I am sure they all get a nice ending. ❤

Yeah but thanks to Young Sheldon we KNOW they have children!  But I’m glad Lenny got the pregnancy and it’s very believable and very realistic.  I myself am an “oops” baby.  And besides, the only way to avoid an unwanted pregnancy (if you have the right parts and fertile) is to simply not have sex.  And I don’t see Lenny doing that so.... No form of birth control is 100% affective.

From The Hollywood Reporter

'Big Bang Theory' Stars React to Series Finale Surprises

That's it.

With one last big bang, CBS said farewell to mega-hit The Big Bang Theory during a heartfelt and surprising hourlong series finale that featured payoffs to some of the show's long-running inside jokes (the elevator!) and a larger sense of life going on as usual for its beloved characters.

"This show started with Leonard, Sheldon and Penny meeting in a hallway and we got to watch these people become friends and then truly become a family," former showrunner and exec producer Steve Molaro says. "And at the end of it all, nothing felt more like this group was a family than the final moments and that means the world to me."

I was worried after the first half, I thought it was going to be another episode 200 Sheldon love fest but then the second half gave us a lot of what we wanted, the elevator working, we saw Bernadette and Howard’s kids, Penny pregnant and a heart warming Nobel speech from Sheldon with the gang supporting him and Amy.  One thing that did I noticed, the end of the show had them all together, almost like you could have put “to be continued”, I wonder if that is an omen.

One of the worst TV finales I have ever seen.

Whoa, Penny and Leonard with an accident, what are abortions again? (Rhetorical question, let's hope Penny remembered to get one when they got back from Stockholm). Also talk about lazy jokes about her appetite changing.

Sheldon and Amy's chemistry was all off, partially due to the forced drama (the jerk then grand gesture thing is really what they staked the entire climax on). I felt nothing. I was actually beginning to cheer for the unconventional Lorre ending where everyone actually kicks Sheldon out of their life and he ends up alone with just his Nobel. That would deconstruct things always working out for Sheldon and be bold/daring.

Wow they finally pay an arm and a leg for kid actors. What a Howard/Bernadette tribute. Give it up for the non-invisible children. No Howard father but we have visible children. God they pulled out all the stops, so many sleepless nights of writing.

But BY FAR the most disgustingly racist botch of the era. Not giving Raj one plot thread in the finale. Nothing, no throwaway line achievement. He shares a scene with Bert and his doggy. They break him off with Anu a week before the end, while Stuart moved along fine. 4 happy white couples and Raj. If you really need him at Stockholm and didn't have time for a plot for him, say he flew in from London and keep Rajnu. The description for the finale stated "Raj meets a new friend", take away 2 minutes of Howard/Bernadette worrying about their children to have Raj actually meet a new girl. A teaser. Everyone else gets their fairytale but even just hinting Raj found some compatibility will make their little writer wrists hurt.

You also think "hey, this extra scene not taped in front of the audience could actually be some sort of last minute swerve they didn't want spoiled". No, it's just the theme song playing over them all sitting eating.

Goodbye Big Barf Theory.

It was a Sheldon hate fest more than anything. I hated the entire thing. Start to finish. I think it was very good if you were A Lenny fan. They piled on the hate, made him horrible to his wife who looked beautiful, and even got to slap him. You don't get any Shamy sweetness at all. Best part for me? Howardettes kids. Very cute. Happy that Lenny are pregnant.

I have to say, I did get discouraged when he reacted as he did to Penny's news, then again, it'd be somewhat weird if he got excited--- but they shouldn't have made him so cold about it. He was especially mean in the second half and I was getting angry where the story was going...But Jim did such a good job on the speech at the end it somewhat made up for it for me.  I loved hearing Penny say she still loved him no matter how he acted. The last part in YS helped, too. 

I'm glad Sheldon didn't seem to care he got slapped--he was so happy. (Deep down he's a toughie)

Abortion exists. It felt cheap and disrespectful to Penny. Sure her life turned out fine, but she really has no identity outside of being Leonard's trophy. No last name except for her husband's and having kids she didn't want  initially. Why even have her say she doesn't want kids ? It was lazy and a waste of time.

She didn't sound upset to me about being pregnant and I'm sure if she was she would have informed Leonard
