I wasn't very fond of the episode either, but I have to say Sheldon knowing about football was absolutely hilarious.

Hi peeps
Seen the ep and it was ok, but thats all i can give really. Yeh it was funny, but this episode was missing something, dunno what it was but it lacked something. As always did love L/P, how can i not...but that was the best part of it really. It weren't a bad episode..but it's certainly the worst of the season so far. Does it put me off....hell no! Bring on next week

I feel like Raj is the best part of the show now. He seems to get stronger every episode.

I actually quite liked this episode.

I thought the kite fighting was a neat idea (did they come up with it themselves or are people actually known to do that...?). What made it hilarious though was how much Sheldon and Raj were into it. The whole Raj/Howard storyline that resulted I really enjoyed. Particularly Raj's "douche" line. Those two make a better couple than P/L.

Sheldon knowing all about football and revealing more of his childhood I of course loved. As for L/P's part in the storyline, it's probably the most I've enjoyed them this season. Maybe because they didn't have any unrealistic sex in this one. It was uncomfortable watching Leonard embarrass himself so much, but at least it was Leonard, and I was happy to see him go off kite fighting again. The looks Penny's friends gave her when he left were hilarious.

As was her response. I'm curious though - when are the writers going to give the two of them a common interest (aside from sex, cause come on, you can't built a real relationship off of that).

So to sum up, I liked the episode a lot, and my main complaint for this week is simply that I wish the episodes were longer than 20 minutes.

I have been liking that Raj and Howard are featured more prominently this season. It's well deserved.

I enjoy Howard and Raj but I prefer if they keep the bromance to a minimum. Really didn't like most of their SL.

Ha-ha, yeah, after all, it's my main complaint too

The show was actually 1-2 mins shorter than it usually is. I mean net obviously.

LostInTime · 11-05-2009, 05:22 PM

Ashu I noticed that as well it was over at 9:58 PM and didn't start until 9:31 Why is it that Two and a half men is on from 9-9:31 and that leaves only 29 mins for TBBT which doesn't even use up their allotted time?
That has been bugging me all season..

I wanted to love the Raj and Howard scenes but they really fell flat for me,
and I wanted to actually see Sheldon teaching Leonard more ( I love thier scenes together)

**Andu** · 11-05-2009, 05:30 PM

Normally a TBBT episode is ~20:30 - ~21:30 minutes long. This episode was 19:14 minutes long (I said net but this includes the intro and the scene changes). So the episode was considerably shorter than usual. Don't ask me why though. Not sure if there is a reason from the network or if it's just that the script was that short. Also it could be that they ended up cutting something out while editing. Maybe the SL scene was longer originally. It certainly would have been nice. In fact I could have imagined something of an elaborate version of the SR montage but without the music and with lots of quick dialogue.

I'm not a fan of shows that over elaborate stuff though

Family Guy comes to mind
