The Big Bang Theory - season 4 thread (1 Viewer)

Setting this episode up as a boys and girls night worked out pretty well as it served each character.

I thought Amy seemed very unrealistic too. She's kind of an extreme Sheldon. Though I liked how out of water she was with Penny and Bernadette. The lesbian thing at the end was kind of unexpected. I liked Bernadette's reaction at the end.


I thought it was especially enlightening that the girls brought up how Penny was still hanging around Leonard. It gives me hope they never really broke up. Nice little sight gag of Leonard reading Eat Prey Love while in line to see Raiders!


Did anyone think when Penny stormed off, they used a double? Or perhaps her leg healed up already. She was standing behind the bar, so I think she's still in a cast and it was well hidden when they were watching Raiders on video with the big shoes and loose pants.

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

I'm almost 100% positive that what we saw was a double for Penny, she began to get up and they cut away to a headless body walking by in the background.


Pretty good way to get around her injury.

Sheldon: Well, well. If it isn't Wil Wheaton, the Jar Jar Binks of the 'Star Trek' universe.

You should follow Wil Wheaton's Twitter feed during Evil Wheaton episodes

Looks like Amy Farrah Fowler will be sticking around for a while.

 

[DaveF]

She's a bit too robotic, but I enjoy her.


"I'm a girl!"

 

[DaveF]

This last episode was another good one! "no I did not touch his telescope!"

 

[Hanson]

The whole thing with Leonard extorting lip locks from Penny for his silence was kind of rapey.

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

Nah lol, he was just having some fun with her.

 

[Hanson]

I cringed.


Now that Keith Carradine has made an appearance, will Robert Carradine be far behind? It would be awesome if his character was a professor named Dr. Skolnick. That would win so much.

 

[DaveF]

Was Penny's dad a son of David Carradine? I thought he looked like D C but couldn't figure it out.

 

[Steve Tannehill]

Keith Carradine is the late David Carradine's brother.

 

[Hanson]

Robert is the youngest brother. He was Lewis in the seminal Nerd flick, Revenge of the Nerds. Which is why he'd be perfect for this show.

 

[DaveF]

Nice. I didn't know that.

You may also know him for this '70s classic:





I thought Keith's voice had a beautiful deep timbre in the TBBT episode. Really nice. Quite a difference from that recording of I'm Easy.

Last night's was about a perfect piece of sitcom as I've seen in a while! Every line was written and delivered perfectly. It reminded me of the pilot, where I was swept up into the relateable lunacy of these uber-geeks

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

The group hanging out with no intrusive women problems, playing geek cards, talking comic books and dressing up as Superheroes...NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT!!

 

[Nelson Au]

Damn, it was pre-empted here in California by a football game

 

[DaveF]

Good episode. I do like the returning tension between Penny and Leonard.

(Zoom)"Oh Leonard how you frustrate me!"(Zoom)"Ok".


Great ending!

I don't think anyone was looking at her tension.
