The Big Bang Theory – Sheldon’s sexual tension syndrome

I think this episode is the gem I’ve been eagerly anticipating all season on The Big Bang Theory. Mind you, I’ve been enjoying the series all along. But it somehow had lost some of its chuckles for me. It’s been a bit lackluster. It’s been storylines which simply don’t rock my world. While tonight’s main plots have been seen before it sitcoms, the Sheldon Factor in all of its glory shined.
The Big Bang Theory – Childhood issues for Sheldon, adult issues for Leonard

Yep, if I have to put up with Leonard and Penny bed scenes, I’m going to make you all suffer with me. I’m still not seeing any boyfriend/girlfriend chemistry between them. They share no interests. As a matter of fact, their interests, their minds, their lifestyles — they’re all so far apart that, if this were real life, they’d have nothing to say to each other. I will continue to suspend my disbelief. At least their relationship gave us a good Sheldon episode tonight.
The Big Bang Theory – Kite-fighting or Cornhuskers

I guess I don’t mind Penny and Leonard being a couple — as bizarre as the concept may be — if I don’t have to watch bed scenes with them. I can only suspend my disbelief to a certain point. That point doesn’t include the thought of those two having sex. It just doesn’t. Thankfully we had no bedroom scenes tonight.
The Big Bang Theory – Die, Wil Wheaton, die!

Well, well, well … if it isn’t Wil Wheaton playing … Wil Wheaton. In the geekdom that is comic and science fiction, the world in which our Big Bang Theory boys dwell, Wil is up there on his pedestal admired by the masses. Little does Wil know, he has one enemy out there in the world (besides all the bloggers over the years he’s conned out of their Guinness, by telling new bloggers aboard it’s tradition to buy him a Guinness. He’s probably stockpiling them.) But this isn’t about Wil. Wait. It is.
Reality Clack – Evil Russells, mylar balloons over Colorado
Lately on television, reality shows have really been a bad example of the real reality in which we live. For example, on Survivor: Samoa, we have two Russells. One is definitely an “Evil Russell.” But the Good Russell is exhibiting poor leadership skills — he was the Chosen One to lead his tribe in the beginning of the season. The supposed Good Russell has a chip on his shoulder the size of Wisconsin, too.
The latest route for many of the reality shows I watch is to get the most obnoxious self-absorbed folks ever in the cast. Then they focus on those people for the action almost more than any physical competitions or such. I suppose it does take a quirky personality and a dubious psyche to want to be on the shows, but give me a break.
The Big Bang Theory – Deportation, piracy, or work for Sheldon

Tonight’s episode was actually Raj-centric. We don’t see many of those. And, yes. I’ll be calling him Raj, mainly because Koothrappali is a bear to repeatedly type. Little did we know that Raj has been leading a double life. You heard me. Here we think he’s this diligent scientist, yet awkwardly geeky. He’s geeky, all right. But he’s also filling his workdays with Facebook and other sites (possibly CliqueClack TV!). He’s about to be deported.
The Big Bang Theory – Shiksa Goddess, can we just be friends?

The moment I was dreading on the show came last week — PennyLenny (Turkey Lurkey’s more wild neighbors) had sex. No, I’m not getting over it. Those two, in my mind at least, were never meant to be a sexual couple. What’s next? Barry Kripke and Sheldon will realize that they’re gay and head over heels in love? So this week we had the aftermath of the torrid sexual romp between Penny and Leonard. Oh, why couldn’t it all have just been a dream?
