random disjointed thoughts:
Hmm. I hadn't seen this one, yet. I think I would like it fairly well, if the Interlopers weren't there. I'm kinda liking this rather mysterious, Clue-style setting, although it has little or nothing to do with the actual style or content of the show.
But yes, Sheldon's body looks much too wide/thick, like they put his head on someone else's body.
The colors in B's dress don't jive with the dark colors of everything else. In fact, the color scheme doesn't seem to harmonize or look very intentional or well-thought-out, here, across the boards. Penny's dress is a bit too casual or light-hearted for this "dark opulence"-type theme. As Ratman pointed out, B. has exactly one facial expression in these various promo pics. I hate her like burning. I'm waiting for TPTB to reveal that there really isn't any Melissa Rauch and B. is a CGI character, because that's how natural, believable, and versatile she is.
The women are smiling and the men are not, this makes the women look psycho, not cheery. Apparently the women always have to be a certain way, even when you're going for this mysterious/bad-ass theme. The division between the male and female characters is so very obvious.
Howard actually looks kind of bad-ass, I like it. Notice how they always make *damn sure* that you can see his wedding-ring, though. Couldn't have his hand in his pocket or something. They always do this. My parents have been happily married for decades and my dad never wore a ring because it's simply not his style.
Wow, that is quite the phallic placement of Raj's telescope...
Mainly this just makes me want some Agatha Christie-style AU fics.
If you deleted the Interlopers, this looks like a show I would very much want to watch. It looks like an enjoyably campy and juicy old-school soap opera about a bunch of wealthy people and their scandals, or something, with lots of murders and back-stabbing and twists and turns. Like these people are all members of organized crime or something. PLOT BUNNY AHOY. It doesn't look like a comedy, though.
I can actually *see* the Photoshopping around the character's heads and feet, though. They look very flat, like paper-dolls. How appropriate
I propose they give us this crime/intrigue/family-dynasty show instead of that one about cleaning ovens and buying tables.
Really, this is kinda fascinating. Are they messing with us, like "see, this is actually a tragedy, not a comedy?"
Amy's dress is so hideous and unflattering, I find it hard to believe they aren't intentionally mocking the character and/or the actress.
I love me some Dark!Howard and his high-heeled boots.
