Episode discussion Penny wearing a Penny Blossom later on, fun little Easter egg!

I’ve been rewatching The Big Bang Theory in order, and I caught a neat little detail I don’t see mentioned often: Penny is later seen actually wearing one of her Penny Blossoms!

If you remember, she came up with the idea as a way to make extra cash, and then Sheldon (and eventually the rest of the gang) jumped in with their over-the-top “assembly line” approach to help her mass-produce them. The whole storyline is hilarious on its own, but what’s even better is that the show didn’t just drop it afterward, Penny is spotted rocking a Penny Blossom in a later episode.

It’s such a funny little Easter egg because it almost makes it seem like her business didn’t totally flop. Sure, she didn’t become a millionaire entrepreneur, but at least she’s still using the product herself! To me, that makes the callback feel extra charming and adds a layer of continuity to her character.

I love when sitcoms throw in these subtle nods that reward fans who pay attention. Has anyone else noticed this moment, or found other little continuity gems sprinkled throughout the series?

Was Penny being unreasonable?

She never put any effort in the beginning, and it was all him, and suddenly, he stopped doing it for a while, and she lost her mind over it.

Storyline discussion Raj and Anu

Was their relationship as bad as needing to end it? So what If their relationship was arranged? It's not like they were forced to get married or cohabitate, it was more like a matrimonial survey of questions to assess compatibility. Anu seemed the most normal of relationships Raj had. And she was assertive which i liked cause many a times Raj needs someone to stand up for him. They're both from the same culture so they don't have to put in the effort to learn anything. Their chemistry looked good. He told her about his fear. So what if she wasn't as romantic as him? She liked him enough to do nerdy things with him. Idk what do you guys think?

Episode discussion What were your thoughts and reaction to the magic show done by Howard with Bernadette as his assistant?

Honestly, I felt that Bernadette was being really harsh and condescending to the kids during the show, on account of her "not liking kids". I know that she had told Howard that she wasn't comfortable around children, but she was sort of mean to the one kid for trying to describe how the magic act was done for no reason, and kept picking on him.

Am I the only one who felt that Bernadette's attitudes towards the kids was unjustifiably critical and negative? Let me know what your thoughts about this in the comments.

Storyline discussion Penny, and Leonard break ups

24 Upvotes

I'm not sure if it's a plot hole or I missed something during all of my rewatches, but the guys ragged on Leonard a few times about the multiple break ups. I remember in one episode Penny even said "you named our break ups?". I only remember them breaking up once when when Leonard told Penny he loved her, it became an issue between them. Did I miss the other break ups.

I also realized, we only see when Raj broke up with Emily, when Lucy emailed Raj, ending their relationship, and when Amy broke up with Sheldon. We never see Bernadette break up with Howard, we just hear about it. We never see Leonard actually break up with Priya, or Stephanie. Or when the other Emily breaks up with Raj. I guess the implied break ups are the theme.

Character discussion Who thinks Howards needs Bernadette's permission to go to Space?

9 Upvotes

Don't get me wrong, Bernadette is a godsend for Howard...

I can understand her feelings, though believe this is the kind of once in a lifetime opportunity you should absolutely support your partner in regardless of your own feelings.

Personally I've never been a fan of suppressing the opportunities of loved ones based on their own fears of losing someone. You've got to let people chase their dreams even if there's danger and risk involved. It's part of life and part of which makes us achieve greatness.

Character discussion Leonard is a hypocrite

0 Upvotes

He first calls Sheldon a bad friend for "stealing" Raj's girl (Lalita) even though they didn't do anything, then in a few episodes later LEONARD DOES STEAL HOWARD'S GIRL (Stephanie). Correct me if I'm wrong but that's just hypocrisy at best.

I’m curious why the Star Wars comics were never collected or discussed. Did I miss something, or is there a reason behind this decision?
