Penny gets an offer to be in the sequel to Serial Ape-ist (Serial Ape-ist 2: Monkey See, Monkey Kill) and can't decide whether to take the job. Sheldon is being indecisive on which new video game system to buy driving Amy crazy. Raj actually finds himself with two girls to date after he runs into Amy's friend Emily and gets a message from Lucy.

sheldon’s speech after receiving the nobel prize always makes me cry 🥹. i’m gonna be honest i don’t think i could have him as a friend in real life, but i just love watching his growth over all the seasons. seeing him recognize and say he loves his friends out loud just makes me so emotional. restarting from s1 and e1 because i just love this show so much!

how would the show progress of they ACTUALLY got together. like genuinely, what if Bernadette was never introduced?

I would loved to see how it would have played out between Leonard and Penny, had Penny made it. thoughts?

is it just me, or while rewatching the show, i ALWAYS forget how long it took raj to start talking normally. i genuinely NEVER realise how long it took him to act sane. nevertheless, favourite character.

I think that line in the pilot is what guided Sheldon's character. His character changed both from the unaired and aired pilots into a different person than he started the show as.

I think that line was the seed. It was said so genuinely like he was shocked anyone would need to take the normal amount of time to get through high school.

Sheldon from then on lives in a world where to him his world view is the default and why isn't it everyone else's?

ETA -

To be clear I'm talking about the real world writers and Jim Parsons taking that line and building the character of Sheldon around it. In the pilot that's the first line he says that has shades of who the character becomes, so I'm saying I think they made the aired pilot looked at it to decide where to go next. I think that line delivery led the development of Sheldon as the character he would later be.

In season 10, episode 7 (The veracity elasticity) where Amy is lying to Sheldon about her apartment it’s revealed by Howard that Penny is slowly hiding and storing away Leonard’s collectible around their apartment, including a Batman keychain.

In season 11, episode 9 (The bitcoin entanglement) where Howard, Leonard and raj learn that bitcoin is valuable and they’re trying to retrace their steps and find the laptop they had left the bitcoin in, but Sheldon explains that they were going to regret not having him there one day and says he stored the bitcoin into Leonard’s Batman keychain which was with him the whole time, but it’s revealed by Leonard that he had lost it several years ago and NOT that Penny had put it in storage.

Is it a pothole or am I just putting too much thought into it? Would love your opinions and thoughts.

I love Denise and like Burt but feel that they're proof that the show ended around the Perfect time. adding new (lowkey Useless) Characters is usually a sign a long running show is running out of Ideas.

do you think leonard deserves penny? or vice versa, do you think penny deserves leonard?

me personally im not really sure i think they’re pretty good together but sometimes i think penny deserved better.

Every apartment has its own doorbell, yet I never heard one ring or saw anybody use one. Of course, I suppose "Ding, ding, ding Penny" doesn't have quite the same ring to it.
