Wishful Thinking...

[Tuesday Pajamas]

I think TBBT used to be celebratory of difference, but it lost its way come season 4... like I said, now it's ambiguous. I don't know who the joke is on, but there shouldn't be a joke on anyone. They're constantly pulling at the characters and trying to bend them around the writing, rather than letting the characters shape the story. Sheldon's "feelings" for Amy are not believable to me (And indeed probably everyone else on this forum) because they've just slotted in this notion out of nowhere that Sheldon would be bothered about a physical relationship, thus unravelling everything about the character that had been set up previously.

Totally! Everything is ambiguous but not in an intriguing way, like in Community. It feels to me as thought one half want to go all out slushy romance but the rest want the show to be unique and the disunity leans to nothing ever being convincing. I think someone hit the nail on the head when they said they don't seem to care about the characters.

Aaaah! Abed
