  Chapter 200 tapes this Tuesday
Posted by: Tuesday Pajamas - 02-07-2016, 06:56 PM - Forum: Season 9 - Replies (13)

With the show taping Episode 200 in two days, I'd like to offer a prediction for this episode. The official news reports are saying this:

http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entert...57746.html

So I have posted my idea here in our news feed:

Any idea you have please post and you can make them as hideous as you like Big Grin

The Shamy's have launched their desires and unless thay have some insider information they are predicting EXACTLY what we talked about as a very predicable option in the grumblebox after ShAMY coitus. This is bound to be taken down if its not real, so I'm leaving you with screengrabs to chuckle over. Funny how the fandoms think in the same way, their dream, our horror!

  What happened to Sheldon's IQ?
Posted by: Tuesday Pajamas - 02-06-2016, 12:02 AM - Forum: Mint in Box - Replies (11)

What happened to Sheldon's IQ? Or Howards' confidence? Or Penny's self-respect?

One of my pet peeves about the Big Bang re-boot is how they have destroyed brilliant character traits like Sheldon's exceptional brain power. The main thing that made me fall in love with his character in the first place. Sheldon was tactless but he was rarely wrong about anything. SMUG, ARROGANT and FANTASTIC!! That's all changed with the inclusion of Amy Farrah Fowler. Sheldon was always way TOO good for Amy. Jim was the breakout star of the Big Bang Theory, so talented and so perfect for Sheldon, it was a rare thing to behold. Amy could never measure up to that. So what did they do? They literally dismantled him. He's SO stupid now, he quotes incorrect facts, he's sexist and so immature it makes me want to scream.

So I have created this thread for Sheldon quotes, comparing the original Sheldon which drove the shows greatness (although it can also apply to any character which has been reduced for their ship) to the Re-boot Sheldon who seems to have had a lobotomy. The Meemaw episode is my first example:

Sheldon being smart:

Sheldon: "...There are a lot of advantages to buying in bulk. For example, I noticed that you purchase your tampons one month’s supply at a time.
Penny: What?
Sheldon: Well think about it, it’s a product that doesn’t spoil, and you’re going to be needing them for at least the next thirty years.
Penny: You want me to buy thirty years worth of tampons?
Sheldon: Well, thirty, thirty five, hey, when did your mother go into menopause?
Penny: Okay, I’m not talking about this with you.

Sheldon being a moron :

“Is it possible this cranky-ness is because your cycles have synced?”

WHO THE HELL FINDS THIS FUNNY?? I've seen people laughing over this stupid comment. It's just silly. And beneath him.

Please add your examples... It can be any character. Pictures would be nice as well, if you can find em. I've done these 500 across.

  Why didn't they advertise the Shenny Kiss?
Posted by: Tuesday Pajamas - 02-04-2016, 04:34 PM - Forum: Weekly Email Blast - Replies (3)

We can only speculate about this and I know what I'm thinking...

For years Shennys have maintained that Shamy only happened because the majority of female viewers (the larger audience) preferred Sheldon and Penny scenes to Leonard and Penny. We have been shouted down, called delusional and worse for suggesting that previously asexual Sheldon was only matched with Amy due to the sexual chemistry between Sheldon and Penny.

Shenny was once a massive group, including some on the media. We were completely ignored and have been the sub-fandom of Big Bang ever since. The producers of the show went to great lenghts to write in 'maternal' type storylines between Sheldon and Penny as far back as Season 3 because women shipped Sheldon with Penny. They have successfully created Shamy and sold it to the world, made a stack of money and yet still they run scared of the Shenny.

I found this post from an rather insightful canon called mirs1 over on the BB fansite and thought I'd share it:

"I've always been very curious to understand why the monkeys at TBBT didn't advertise the Shenny kiss properly. I mean, it was made for sure for shocking value, but it didn't help to bump the ratings of that episode at all, since almost nobody knew it was coming.  I'm not expert in advertising techniques and from my point of view I'm very happy they did not advertise it, but it was a strange choice. In fact, some people commenting photos uploaded very recently about that scene in Official TBBT media (on IG, Facebook, etc...) did not even remember what episode it was and that it already aired.

As far as how popular it is in social media, in the CBS official TBBT Youtube channel Shenny kiss is for sure more popular than Shamy coitus (even if it has been on line 2 months before it), but on the unofficial YT channel I usually check (I'm not from US and I don't have devices that allow me to watch the videos uploaded on the Official TBBT channel) Shamy coitus hit 2.500.000 visualizations in a month (I swear, only a few dozens are mine!!!, LOL|). To be fair it most likely is due to the fact that it is a video collecting all the scenes from that episode related to Shamy coitus, not just the few available on the official channel, so I'm sure many people even from USA prefer it to the videos officially released. And that unofficial channel doesn't have the Shenny kiss on it, so I can't make a comparison. But, checking a little bit on line, on another pretty famous YT unofficial channel, the video about Shenny kiss doesn't go beyond 800.000 visualizations vs. 450.000 visualizations for Shamy coitus which was uploaded of course 2 months later and they are essentially the same videos uploaded in the official channel. "

Here's the original post.

I hang my head and sigh.... do we need any more proof kittens? Blossom Blossom

I think TPTB are generally scared that the Shenny kiss is too popular. Which begs the question, why did the writers do it in the first place? We never asked for it. The vast majority of Shennys have given up asking. They don't even give us any scenes anymore, maybe the popularity of the kiss sealed Shenny's fate and we won't get anymore episodes featuring these two alone together because even now, after years of canon the Shenny can raise eyebrows in the fandom. With so many people commenting on the chemistry. As this poster has told us the kiss has more hits than Shamy coitus on the CBS channel. I can't confirm this as I'm out of the regoin. Could someone else take a look please?
