The Shamy part was incredibly unfunny, talk about watching paint dry. Big Bangs studio audience usually fall over themselves at the sniff of a joke, but their scenes were very notably short on laughter. Sheldon has always known he was not accepted by others, the fact that it bothers him now is not even remotely interesting. The Shamy plot was sad. Amy getting away with drugging Sheldon and then going behind his back in a way that felt so manipulative. This wasn't even resolved either. The rest was just embarrassing. Screaming over his ear pierce? 3 times! Pants on head? Are the writers 12?
Bernadette wailing over not being able to stop the baby crying when someone else could, was the most predictable of all the plots. This could have been a lift from a thousand other sitcoms, the tired new-mother-crying-baby skit. Where's Howards' inventiveness. He's an engineer he should have designed the perfect baby crib. But they never think of anything outside the box. It's all so domestic and ordinary.
I'm surprised to say this but Leonard and Penny were the highlight for me. Leonard's nasal whine didn't let up but Penny, or rather Kaley, always nails it. Those two actually managed to be funny.
