Happy belated birthday wishes, tensor   I sent a message yesterday but the system keeps asking for my pwd and I keep resetting. Don't know what the problem is.

Yeah, on my birthday last week, my wife woke me up with " When I'm 64" by the Beatles. I laughed my butt off.

It's great! Not as good as the "Over The Hill" ceremony. Still great though!

I had the date right, but posted it on a different thread!   😢

Well interesting thing, my children and other family and friends are calling me to make sure my wife and I wasn't on base at NAS Pensacola due to a shooting on base. I hear the shooter was shot and killed while nine people were injured. 

As of now, there are 4 confirmed dead and 8 wounded!

E4 is a niche channel in UK that shows good American sitcoms more or less exclusively. It means people who only view 'normal telly' get little  chance to see TBBT although the odd episode is sometimes shown in the morning at weekends on mainstream Channel 4 England  in no noticeable order. Consequently, the British population is divided into those who love TBBT and YS  and those who've hardly, if ever, heard of them. There's no YS on a mainstream channel at all yet.

The Spock Resonance

I loved this one. I was so sad that they didn't follow up on it. I think they could have gone farther with it instead of some of the crap we got.

So very true. The writers were mostly one and done with the episodes. The noted exception was the last two. Sometimes I wondered if they even considered what they had written in the previous episodes!

Agreed. When the Spockumentary came out I was hoping to see a crossover. We got a very brief speech from Mayam but otherwise there wasn't anything. What a disappointment !

Indeed !  They often gave the impression of not having even read previous scripts. When they did refer back to something, such as Sheldon's wish for fifteen children, it used to come as a surprise. The Spock Resonance episode laid the ground for so much they could have done. Building on Sheldon's decision to stop relying on artificial non-emotions from fictitious people on the TV could have made an interesting storyline for one thing. Then there could have been an episode where they tried to stop Amy from seeing a clip of Sheldon's outbursts. We could have seen the whole gang go to the cinema to see the Spockumentary. Referencing it in Season 12 would have been  far better than much of what we got. So much potential wasted.

Yeah, so much wasted potential material for episodes.
