Yes, once a year. And Sheldon said he had the same agreement with his mother regarding going to church. Then they agree on their aversion to soiled hosiery and Sheldon offers to buy Amy a drink and Amy asks for water, "tepid, please."

It's the episode where we meek Zack as well. One of my favorites.

Yeah, that was a great line!

I liked last night's episode. I can see Sheldon having an interest in his beautiful assistant--so many times that is what happens in real life. I would like him to be outside his comfort zone and being pulled between the assistant and Amy.

I agree about Stuart--I really like his character. It would be fun to see him and Raj out on the town and finding some "love" interests.

Great not to hear Howard's mother and it was nice seeing Bernie in her office. Hopefully, that will be another story line.

Would love more Howard, Amy, Sheldon & Bernadette.

I am one who likes Penny. I like her reactions to Sheldon especially. The looks she gives him when he makes his lofty comments are funny. But I like Amy too. Her deadpan delivery is very funny. Amy and Penny play off each other really well.

Doubt it--Howard's character and "fashion sense" are an important part of the show. They were just trying to find something funny and different to do with this character that was "nerdy scientific". Plus, sending someone into space let's them have some fun with weightlessness.

But mostly, the writers kind of painted themselves into a corner with the whole Bernie/Mom/Howard plot. They needed to find a way to let Howard interact with the guys on a daily basis without having Bernie and Mom around--that's when that character was really the most fun.

Looks like they'll keep Howard in space for another week, then that gag will have run its course. After that, I'd suggest sending Bernie out of town for a little while (6 month microbiology assignment in some other city maybe?)

I don't usually like seeing characters break up but I could also see them getting a divorce if they decide they want Howard to return to his old "watch me pick up chicks" routine. Considering they had a quickie wedding and they didn't resolve some important issues before getting married (like living with mom) I could see a divorce as a plot being set up. A friendly divorce--they discover their lives are going in different directions, that sort of thing.

However.... if they decide to go the divorce route, let that be the end of it. I hate hate hate it when writers play the break up-make up-break up-make up game. It was annoying when Ross and Rachel did it, and even more annoying for all comedies that followed after that.

I will politely disagree with you here. I really disliked the perverted Howard character and have really grown quite fond of him since he met Bernie. He and Amy really do have the most humorous lines in the show, though Sheldon is my favorite. I would like to see Raj and Howard's mom leave the show and actually build comedic stories around the Howard and Bernie marriage, while not changing the main thrust of the show. I know it will be a challenge for the writers, but heck, that is what they get paid the big bucks for
