"He's never gonna change" Oh boy, you're in for a ride

Howard does have a "human" moment in a later season. Actually one of the sweetest scenes of the show. There's just a lot of creepy to work thru. Will always remember Simon Helberg from Dr Horrible as Moist though.

This is one of the best episodes in the entire show.

Howard's Character development in progress! Believe me one day you're going to miss this Howard.

I love Leslie character. She is one of the best. Too bad she didn’t appeared more.

5:48 I know, I'm like 'Girl, have you never had brisket?'

Loved your observation/comment that a mitosis Sheldon would argue about who's name came first 😆 YES!

"Howard is never going to change" Be patient my friend, there are still 10 seasons ahead of ya

This episode is a cultural reference to the movie and book called Misery by Stephen King

This episode is fascinating to watch in terms of what it looks like when Sheldon is in a relationship with a fellow scientist, as well as the methods Sheldon (or others) use(s) to try to push a breakthrough. In terms of Sheldon's sexuality (or lack of), considering the time as well as the fact that Penny grew up in Nebraska and the guys aren't even competent at heterosexual relationships, it's actually realistic that none of them would be well-versed in sexualities other than straight and gay. But... the mitosis scene is pretty hilarious all the same. Also: The actress playing Ramona tends to pop up in a lot of stuff. She's also one half of the Garfunkel & Oates folk comedy duo with Kate Miccuci.

Imagine… 2 Sheldons. 😁

Octavia is a riot. Sometimes I would love to talk back to the library patrons especially when I was a children’s librarian. The kids were fine but the parents were constantly demanding and didn’t like being told no. Now I do young adult and reference and the people are generally more reasonable.

Ramona does come back many seasons and years later, and she plays a key part in a life changing event...you shall see!😊

Spoilers: In their enture group, Howard is going to be the first one to get married, the first one to have a successful career (astronaut engineer), and the first to start a family.

I love your idea that neither Sheldon would want to share credit with the other one. I am now adopting that as the reality. lol

Sheldon is going to get a free pizza 🍕.

Cute reaction. Thanks!

Yay, more TBBT!

If your not easily offended highly recommend checking out some more of Riki Lindhome who played "Ramona". She and another actress who appears later on this show Kate Micucci, have this rather odd music group called "Garfunkel and Oates" that is hilarious!!! Best way I can describe it is if you mixed Monty Python's songs with George Carlin and Weird Al. They have quite a few very memorable songs but I don't think any beats "The Loophole"!!! WARNING do not view if you are easily offended by humor of a religious nature!!!

Looking back, this was the second of three consecutive episodes that spelled out the toxicity that Sheldon oozes out onto the people around him every day. First, he put his extreme dependence on people and OCD to the forefront. Here, his Aspergers, callousness and cowardice are on full display. Then next episode (spoilers if you care), he reverts right back to OCD, along with intense narcissism, as if looking for whatever reason to be more bigoted towards Penny this entire time. And the comeuppance is nowhere near enough for everything he will keep doing.

Love love love this episode.

Are you watching this on streaming or DVD?

2:55 I have a labradoodle......double-doodle close enough

17:23 Yeah, it could have been a lesson to help Sheldon with his narcissism. Helping him realize that he has so many inhumane and unreasonable expectations and treatments for people, and this was an early chance to realize they were expectations even he did not want to live with.

Have you watched The planet of the apes trilogy?

Great video! I enjoyed your reactions

That second one tho

you know what movie you should react too? "A Knights Tale" with Heath Ledger or "Mask of Zorro" with Antonio Bandarez and Anthony Hopkins. 2 great movie classics! Check them out.

Sheldon has trouble sharing. 😔

Love this episode

Could you make a reaction video to the movie "birds of prey", please?🙏
