SPOILERS: What fresh hell is this? - S9

[Kimk26]

Hello, “Kimk24”.
Thumbs up and Congratulations! What a great post! Critically, exactly, based on good observation and wonderful formulated.
(There I can be directly envious……no, of course not. Really great work!!!)
I full agree with your opinion. I am also convinced that the possibility of a real “Shenny”-relationship, was never out of the mind of the writers. This two characters are too much at the center of the attention and they are the core of the show. And like “The intimacy….” has shown there are very much truth (….oh sorry…wrong series..) very much viewers out there who would like to see it when Penny and Sheldon become a couple some day.
And yes. You are right. This “dream-sequence” could be the proof, that Leonard was from the beginning unconsciously jealous of Sheldon. When we look the first seasons again…..Leonard had tried to impress Penny in many ways, Howard tried to conquer her with his “Casanova”-style, and what did Sheldon? Nothing. He had to be only himself to get Pennys attention, and the scenes where we saw that Leonard did not like it are many ones. So this “dream” could be the admission, that-despite the talk about “best friends”-he saw Sheldon as rivals and potential danger……and perhaps still does.
By the way, I don’t remember where it was, but I remember that I have read somewhere about the rumor that the channel-network is thinking about the seasons eleven and twelve.
Well, when I saw this first I became eyes-roll, but than…..after thinking about it, I came to the conclusion that it must not be bad. In this time were the authors forced to make something new, because….I can imagine that even their fans would be bored by this “Shamy”-and “Lenny”-things.
(Also here, with us, in Germany-when I look into forums where it is about “TBBT”- the most viewers are annoyed about this canon melodramatic “relationship-waste”)
So, if there come further seasons there will be have a lot of chances to create new plot-lines with new (or old) priorities, new(!) relationships……and of course it would be enough time for Penny and Leonard to become divorced…(Giggles)
Hope you will bring more great posts like this one in future.
See you here next time.
Until then: Shenny for the win!!!

Oh, Ratman, thanks for the great review (of my review).. Yeah, I think you and I are pretty much on the same page as far as our feelings on these pairings. We must hold onto hope!
