So, I can't figure out why they keep forcing Amy on us ? She is dull, nagging, can't have fun, always manipulating him, acts like his grandma, dresses like his grandma and I seriously don't know anyone outside of a small vocal online fandom, who believes she is in any way appealing or charming. I don't relate to Amy AT ALL.
I'm just sick of the show telling us how lucky Penny is to have Leonard and how lucky Sheldon is to have Amy. Because I don't actually see it.
I haven't watched since s7 but catch reviews and clips on youtube. No one is watching the show for Amy and Leonard.
Too much focus on Amy and how 'important' she is to Sheldon, killed season 8 and 9 from the looks of it and it they are getting what they deserve -they lost out on major Emmy noms and ratings decreased from season 7. They were able to coast through s5-7 based on syndication of the lovely s1-4 but not anymore.
Sheldon and Penny(and vintage Howard) still have the best of the show in s1-4. And no one can really take that away
I was looking at a poll at a bbt fansite -anyone can vote: Sheldon and Penny are still most popular ones (even in the online fandom) out of a 60k vote sample. Just wish Howard had as many votes. Howard is certainly a more amazing character than Amy, Bernadette and Leonard could ever be.

First of all hello! Second of all: I agree so much with what you just said! It's all so true!
As a Sheldon Cooper fan myself, I'm pleased to see that so many still love Sheldon, I mean that's why most people watch. They don't care about Shamy, Sheldon could be with any woman and it wouldn't matter. He is still the best part of the show. And happy and a little stunned to see Penny up top! She's also the best part of the show.
With how much people act like Amy is some sort of tv show savior. She's way down on the bottom. No one likes her.
(This poll also proves to some folks who hate Sheldon and assume that Leonard is what makes the show... No is Sheldon...)
Thanks for this. It's insightful.
Bitches be crazy.
