I think that Season 8 Premeire will more than likely be Shamy-centric, will a Shenny moment to mask it. Shenny has proven to be successful in drawing in the fewer and I seriously don't think a Shamy promo has enough weight to bring in viewers who are already bored of the the relationship plots.
I want Sheldon to stay out in Texas for at least a couple episodes. Bring in Missy, have her provide some insight to his situations. She isn't a genius, but I'm willing to bet he would take her opinion into consideration just like he does Penny's. I HOPE HOPE HOPE that there will be no Shamy pushing. The writers are trying to ram it and Leonard/Penny into acceptance so hard.
As for the rest of the season, I agree with thetoadoftruth that there needs to be some hijinks remenisnt to the earlier episodes along with the some Shenny shenanigans. Gloomy/Cynic Penny is old already; She used to be a more motivated, stronger character; her blossom is wilting and besides the Sheldon destruction, this is the saddest thing (not a sliver of comedy).
Howardette will remain the same; I don't see a baby on this show until S9. Raj and Emily will not last. There is no room for her on the show (unless she is replaced with some one else HINT HINT).
Now, with all these changes I think there will be a ratings dip. The bandwagon fans of this season will drop off. BUT I think it'll bounce back when some of the fans of the older seasons come back.
SAVE THE SHOW FROM THIS FANGIRL MENTALITY. It's possible, just takes some effort and creativity on the writer's and actor's part. They have 3 seasons left to fix this mess and get back a little respect.
