To me the best parts are the little moments between Penny & Sheldon when they're completely bewildered by each other.
A couple of examples:
Sheldon (unlocking his mailbox): Hello Penny.
Penny: Get anything good?
Sheldon: Uh, just the latest copy of Applied Particle Physics Quarterly.
Penny: Oh, you know, that is so weird that yours came and mine didn’t. (Sheldon looks confused). It was a joke. (Sheldon gives a fake laugh.)
Sheldon: Penny, I’d rather not talk about it.
Penny: Well, if it makes you feel any better, I’m not feeling so hot either.
Sheldon: Why would that make ME feel better?
Penny: I don’t know, empathy? Anyway.....,
The moments of silence where they just stare at each other in total bafflement are wonderful. I giggle just thinking about. That type of subtlety is what's missing in the current show.
