I actually think Moleros fingerprints (along with Lorre and Prady) were all over the scripts for Leonard biggest asshole moments. Wrecking Sheldon's experiment, having Leonard hook up with Dr. Plimpton 2 weeks after declaring his eternal love to Penny, Leonard lying about hooking up with Priya, and then after he became the Showrunner he wrote (or was one of the main writers and gave the approval) the episodes when Leonard cheated on Priya with the comic book girl, basically told a penny he only agreed with her to get in her pants while they were dating, etc., etc., etc., and of course the episode where Leonard admitted he cheated on Penny.
My problem with Leonard? Molero (and of course Lorre and Prady) have written Leonard to be a liar, a opportunist cheater and a sabbotur, who never gets punished when he is caught. (And no, I don't consider that one OOC episode where Sheldon made Leonard wear an itchy sweater punishment for all his crimes) I'm tired of TPTB saying he's the underdog nice guy who deserves something (or someone) because the way he's been written .....he's not, and he doesn't.
I have to agree with PJ on the Amy situation. No matter your opinion on Amy, not only has the writers made it clear that Sheldon won't ever get a better girlfriend (which is complete bullshit, but another post), but they've made it equally clear that Amy will never get a better boyfriend then a man-child who can't be trusted to cross the street alone, needs special toddler containers to eat treats in the car and has to be watched because he puts small toys into his mouth. They've dumbed down Sheldon so much that you have to wonder why the Fowlings aren't screaming that Amy deserves a guy that treats her right, respects what she says, and doesn't consider sex with her a once a year for her birthday an obligation.
Personally, I would suggest running away if Leonard or Sheldon (as he's written now) showed any interest.
