I juste hope they will keep some scenes from the live-taping for the final cut. It's not the same energy nor the same feeling.

I bet they'd prioritize using the takes from the live taping, whenever they can. Though I get their reasons for wanting to pre-tape everything.

Agree.
Plus I don't want them to win a Nobel prize, I wish they had dropped this storyline after discovering the Russian study.

But I'm glad to see Regina King again

I agree.

Sheldon and Amy could have won any fictional prize for their work, but not the Nobel Prize. Well, maybe they don't win in the end. We'll see.

Oh, what's also bothering me is this. TBBT used to be a show that took pride in its accuracy when it came to science. But with the Nobel Prize plot they abandoned this accuracy three times. First, Super Asymmetry is completely made-up; second, you usually don't track down references after writing a paper; third, the procedure of getting the Nobel Prize as it is shown in the show has nothing to do with the real procedure.

I know it's a sitcom. But suspension of disbelief somehow doesn't work for me in this case.

If Sheldon and Amy are going to receive a Nobel Prize, I want Leonard and Penny to have a kid.

I'm interested in how they portray that because it's not like women haven't won Nobel Prizes before? Like don't get me wrong I just LOVE seeing women at the top of their fields, but I don't know what would be groundbreaking about this - they aren't even the first husband and wife team to make significant contributions to science. Basically all of that sort of thing has been done before.

I'm also bored by it and I hate how they're just throwing science and the process to the wind unless it's convenient.

Yes, it bothers me too how this storyline is not scientifically correct since it's one of the things they were taking special attention to until now. (Interesting articles, thank you.)

Amy having a Nobel price in Physics is just completely unrealistic for me.

I don't know if it's just because it's up against more of the Nobel prize stuff, but I'm actually really looking forward to Howard and Raj and the scooter!

They've come a long way from Raj refusing to help Howard pimp out his Vespa.

I would take almost anything over the Nobel Prize stuff at this point.
