7.15 The Locomotive Manipulation

[wellplayedpenny]

I mentioned it above but again I have to say how grumped I was about Leonard's joke about Penny's alcoholism. The way it played out it was like the wall came down and the writers were saying to the audience 'yes, we realize Penny has a drinking problem but it's a sitcom so it's played for laughs'. Then Penny, herself, is too 'buzzed' to even defend herself or be mad at 'Leonard's' words and the situation her character's in. Not cool....
