Thanks for opening the thread!

[WeBuiltThePyramids]

TFTNT! Of course I'll be at a friend's house when this airs. Though they do like the show so maybe I can convince them to turn it on.

[soundsgood]

Thanks for opening, I'm looking forward for this one

Note to Stuart, don't screw it up with Denise. That ending tag was adorable.

I thought it was a mistake to reveal the true mystery of the gift at the middle of the episode.

Also Shamy prove that they can be naive as anyone in their own way. They do know that Lenny can use another wifi right? Also how did they hack their WiFi? Did Lenny not change it.

Raj did you not try the arranged marriage thing in season 5? Why does he think this time will be any different?

Better than the premiere, but not by much. Giving away what the gift was in the middle was a mistake. 7/10 (C+)

[FileXxX]

I really liked this one, although I'm a little biased. But I can see why it doesn't feel like that epic final season they promised to deliver.

Raj's decision confuses me. As Meka said, he tried it before and it was a desaster. Why would he do it again? If that's what he ends up doing, I'll be disappointed.

The whole crowd laughed when Sheldon and Amy were examining the gift. I thought that was kind of embarrassing because I'm sure nobody knew what it was at that point. And then Leonard just told us. To be fair, I thought it was some sort of sex toy. I mean, a gift from Leonard and Penny. Duh...

[SargeantFuzzyBoots]

I liked this one. I do wish there had been a few more scenes with Leonard and Penny or just the two separately because I think Penny only had three scenes across the whole episode. But anyway, I enjoyed the ones they did have.

I really like Denise and Stuart. It's especially exciting to have a nerdy girl on the show now.

I don't really know what to expect from the Raj storyline (I'm biased because of Raj/Lucy in not wanting it to work out, but I digress ). I'm sure it'll be interesting, but, yeah, I dunno.

[Captain Riterra Smith]

So I had to work last night so I'm here a little late.

So the crystal wand. As soon as they explained it, and Amy found that locket it occurred to me, if this was HIMYM, the wand would have been the subject of six episodes spread out from the H/B wedding until the locket's owner tracks Amy down.

Stuart honey, if Denise still wants to go out with you and the only cost is letting her make light of your bad decisions, PUT A RING ON IT!

As for Raj, good luck man, honestly. I'm sure the lady he's about to meet is lovely, but I don't see myself adoring her and Raj as a couple if we only get her for one season.

There could have been more Leonard/Penny.

Otherwise a quite solid episode.

[Whimsical Elf]

Another fun episode!

I thought the same as some of you when they revealed what the gift was in the middle of the episode - but I think they had to do it that way to make Shamy's response work. I think the joke that Shamy made sense of a nonsensical gift was funnier than it just turning out to have no meaning would've been.

Anyway, good for Stuart! So nice to see things going well for him finally.
Interesting revelations for Raj. Maybe the arranged marriage will work, maybe he'll meet someone else - either way, he's realized something about himself. That's progress.

[WeBuiltThePyramids]

FINALLY saw the episode this morning. Really enjoyed it!

[ennaxor]

I was surprised when they revealed what it actually was so early, but I think it just made the scavenger hunt more enjoyable. And even though there wasn't much LP, I still really enjoyed the small scenes they had, and their amusement at Shamy's confusion!

My issue with Raj is he's still going into this arranged marriage with a terrible mindset. Hide his problems for a few dates until they're married? Yeah, that's not gonna work dude.

And the tag with Stuart and Denise was adorable!

^^ As I've said in a podcast ep, I am friends with several people who have had arranged marriages and the process is not as black and white as a lot of people think, but Raj is acting as if that is the case.

Someone needs to remind him that divorce is still a thing.
