We saw fleeting glimpses of Mrs Wolowitz and that was enough for me. She's supposed to be the voice from the sidelines that never makes an appearance. I don't know if I want to see meemaw. It might spoil her.
I figure Meemaw is the writers' plan B when their current storylines dry up, or for sweeps. Though she is only brought up in passing most times, I'm sure she still has some pulling power in Sheldon's decisions.
...Ugh, but with all the changes to his character, god knows if that is even true anymore.
Even if the writers were to have her make an appearance and she does have anything negative to say about Amy or any of Sheldon's relationships, it will be turned into a joke and the laughter reel will be queued.
I'm on the fence about her guest starring, BUT if I had to choose an actress to portray her, it would be Shirley MacLaine.
It would be great to see Meemaw on the show. I think Betty White has been mentioned as a possibility. I just hope Meemaw will not be a stooge to Amy like Wyatt was to Leonard.
