No matter how hard they push, this show does not fit as a heavy relationship or adult concepts show. Many of the characters are just not wired like that. I'm going to stick to the tapping reports for now. Just does not seem right to watch as a Shenny fan especially after last week.

Many of the characters are just not wired like that. I'm going to stick to the tapping reports for now. Just does not seem right to watch as a Shenny fan especially after last week. I still haven't watched the Loco Manipulation. My brain doesn't deal well with abrupt shifts and swerves (indeed, about-faces) in character continuity, particularly within a single episode. It also doesn't deal well with crowbarred-in "romance" and fan-service. Unfortunately, I'm a sucker for Star Wars. And I haven't disliked a Sheldonic dream yet. As for suffering through the "adult" episodes...did I mention I used to go to bullfights in Spain? I felt someone needed to stand (unsteadily) witness to the ignominious death of a noble animal....(Sheldon in this case) I suppose on the other hand, my presence might have been mistaken for support....so perhaps I shouldn't have gone at all...You might be right. I must ponder this.... RE: 7.16 The Table Polarization - Trust No One - 02-17-2014 (02-17-2014, 08:49 AM)Major Gripe Wrote: I still haven't watched the Loco Manipulation.

I dream about the ratings taking a big enough hit to affect change on this show. I'll try to do my very very small part. I have to take this show in very small doses now. Just too much wrong with the show to tune in every week. There is no sense of real conflict with these characters and any problem that does pop up is taken care of with a big reset button. Everything seems soo scripted and safely planned out. That does not make for good TV to me. I need some drama and surprises.

If so, it's probably done for the purpose of the plot of the show. You know, Penny is pissed she has to sit on the floor because so many people are there now eating so "Hey lets get a dinner table like adults" kind of crap. TPTB do random shit with these characters to advance whatever storyline is that week, regardless of continuity. The fact this is the first time Penny is on the floor eating with the group is done just for the point of getting a dinner table. This show is not character driven it's "this week's story" driven and they bend and twist the characters to push whatever story or point they want to sell on the show that week. Is it sad that we can figure out the plot from pictures alone?

Writers another epic fail RE: 7.16 The Table Polarization - Wisp - 02-19-2014 Yippeee! Another episode to ignore. I'm grieving, though. RE: 7.16 The Table Polarization - Tuesday Pajamas - 02-19-2014 And you still have another week before you get to ignore it RE: 7.16 The Table Polarization - Trust No One - 02-19-2014 (02-19-2014, 06:28 AM)Tuesday Pajamas Wrote: And you still have another week before you get to ignore it I'm counting down the days for skipping this episode and the next one. RE: 7.16 The Table Polarization - Toad - 02-19-2014 Great, so we'll all not watch it together then. And because we've still got a ways off before it airs, here's another table, borne aloft by...tentacles? RE: 7.16 The Table Polarization - SpaceAnJL - 02-19-2014 That is a disturbing piece of furniture right out of Edward Gorey. RE: 7.16 The Table Polarization - Tuesday Pajamas - 02-20-2014 I love that table. It's so creepy and beautiful at the same time. |
