    Auful

    Awful and nothing else to say. they must ended this about 5 or 6 seasons ago. and this and previous episode was no funny at all. not even a single smile!

    Petulance and Conflict

    The paintball game was a way of bringing out things in the characters that we already knew. Stuart is being seen sympathetically for a change (and lovable, which is nice). The thing with Sheldon and Amy is dullsville. We all know what an interview with him is like. Raj and Anu? I don't think so.

    In misery

    Someone needs to shoot this show and put it out of its misery. Every interaction was concocted and unrealistic. Sheldon has gone from quirky to completely unlikable -- I guess they don't want us to miss him when the show ends. Penny and Leonard continue to argue about the same things. And Raj and whats her name (seriously, not a clue) finally realized what viewers have been screaming about all season long. The writers and actors have given up.

    Inconsistent

    Penny says she doesn't understand Stewart fearing to screw things up but she said the same thing many seasons ago ... That shows the quality of this season ...

    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The first review of Sheldon and Amy's paper that Amy read was from "Dr. Saltzberg at UCLA." Dr. David Saltsberg is the real life physicist that ensures the science, and science jokes, on the show are accurate. He often hides answers to his students' quizzes and tests around the set of the show.
    • Goofs
      Anu tells Raj that he needs to delete the door camera app from his phone. Raj cannot do this because then he would not have access to his own door camera. He would need to remove the connection settings to her camera.

      There's no mention that the two cameras were made by the same company. It's not likely they are since they were not bought at the same time. Different companies will have different apps geared specifically for their devices. So, he might have to delete the app because his camera would be controlled by a different app.
    • Quotes

      Amy Farrah Fowler: It sounds like you don't want Sheldon to do the interviews.

      President Siebert: It's not that we don't want Sheldon to do the interviews, it's just that we really want you to do the interviews. Without Sheldon.

      Sheldon Cooper: [a server brings his condiments] Now, wait, wait, are you trying to exclude me?

      President Siebert: Look, Sheldon, you're a brilliant man, but your people skills are...

      Sheldon Cooper: This is not barbecue sauce! This is steak sauce! What are you trying to pull?

      President Siebert: Like that.

      Sheldon Cooper: This is ridiculous. It is my work, too, and I am perfectly capable of keeping it together for an interview.

      President Siebert: Okay. Say somebody asks if you feel your work is derivative of the work of Professor Joseph Polchinski.

      Amy Farrah Fowler: [Sheldon's face starts twitching] Seriously, can we get this man some barbecue sauce?

      CHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, #606

      I am writing this vanity card on December 15th. If all goes as planned, you are reading it on January 3rd. Since I have no idea what the Gangster-in-Chief might do between now and then, I thought I'd express my outrage now. My pre-outrage if you will. Let's call it anticipatory disgust. Or being aghast in advance. The point is I'm trying to get ahead of my inevitable indignation. This way, regardless of what law is broken, or which murderous dictator gets a pass, I'll have already vented. Of course, if he nukes Pyongyang or Toronto in order to distract from impeachment chatter, I reserve the right to be upset.
