I find I'm much more tolerant of an episode every time they let vintage Penny or Sheldon out of their cage.
I agree with you and FlyingMonkey. I want to be nit-picky about the episode (I think I was actually ) but I'm more willing to forgive the smaller things because this episode was so much more like the vintage ones. I could have done with out the Lenny proposal conversation, but compared to the relationship agenda the writers have been pushing all season, this wasn't so bad.
It had the potential to be better though, much better. Time was wasted with that c-plot; it could have been better used with the group or something. Plus with the actual show time becoming less and less (or was it just me? ) ,TPTB need to work on time management. Squeezing all these story lines into 20-22 minutes seems to be a recurring issue this season.
