With great fanfare the episode opens with a threat by Sheldon that the guys would never hear the end of it if Sheldon couldn't see Star Wars on opening night. When he finds out this coincides with Amy's birthday he has a moral dilemma and Arthur shows up in his dream to advise him. Sheldon is more concerned with missing Star Wars until Arthur says that he can see the movie any time while he only "has a limited number of days he can be with [Amy.] So be with her." After hearin

In this episode we have a metaphorical incident with Sheldon's eidetic memory suddenly failing him. It is another trait from the past that defined him so it, too, must fall under Amy's paradigm (as only she can be powerful enough to stymie his Beautiful Mind). It's really repetitive to the point where I roll my eyes, the idea that anything Sheldon was/did in the past can be rewritten/dismissed with a mere reference to Amy. I mean I hate to say this but Sheldon is now the most

Alas, I think I've just been exposed to the episode formula for the next one and a half seasons: boring Shamy, boring Lenny and the other guys, an A, B, and C plot that has everything but original humour. In reverse order, we have Howard, Bernadette, Raj and Emily help out at a soup kitchen for Thanksgiving. Howard is there only because he didn't want to spend Thanksgiving with Sheldon. While this might come across with Howard as the ass in a morality play where he gets to le

In tonight's episode, Sheldon says that dating Amy was "sweet and flavorful at first but then a flavorless lump of sadness." When you think of their decline in compatibility since s4 until now, I couldn't describe the course of their relationship any better if I tried. But the key to this episode is how Sheldon is defined by others. Over and over, we've been told by Amy for years that Sheldon isn't a normal boyfriend and how this bothers her. His hobbies and his work are ad

I've had moments in my life when I realized that somewhere along the line I've really messed up. When these epiphanies hit, and they pack a wallop, they are the harbingers of choice as I'm faced with continuing as I was doing or else make a change. This is what Sheldon faces in tonight's episode. In the late Leonard Nimoy's documentary about Spock, Sheldon is interviewed to give his input about what Spock means to him. He remembered the first episode he saw and how Spock's

Tonight took me down memory lane to a time when Sheldon and Leonard were Shelnard – roommates, friends and scientists. They jumped into a problem together, dealt with it together and ended the program together in a delightful way. Normally, with the bent of humour leaning more towards the nasty, I was expecting the worst but am happy to report that Leonard and Sheldon weren't the butt of the joke. Their interaction with the Helium Broker started off rough but then became some

The guys take a fencing lesson from Barry Kripke and this could turn out to be a funny scene. The picture is great. The only problem is, all roads lead back to Amy on the show these days, and Kripke is 'supposedly' interested in her. This is bound to spoil the fun of the A plot completely. The B plot has Stuart asking Penny, Amy and Bernadette to help him encourage women to go to his store. He may as well ask an albatross for all the interest in nerd culture these women have.

Leonard and Penny want to move in together and Sheldon is stressed out. He wants to return to before he met Leonard because he feels he has changed too much. Howard and Raj want to form a rock band. #Episode

Girl/Boy plot. No Shenny scenes but we hope the guys bachelor weekend might yeild a few laughs. The guys kidnap Leonard and take him on a road trip to Mexico because he missed out on a party. The girls talk about their new relationship statuses and tell family members by phone. More to come when our forums members give their verdict on this episode. #Episode

We waited, we hoped but nothing could prepare us for the actual KISS. So what if it's a dream. Thank you Big Bang Theory. Thank you so much. There's also some more of the usual innuendo between Sheldon and Penny, with Sheldon returning a bra he borrowed to try and make Amy jealous. #Episode #Shenny #JimParsons #KaleyCuoco
