That's a marvelous list you've got there. Is there a sliding scale for a reason? I agree with it all ....except maybe the drinking, as I'm known for the odd tipple.
"Adult women talk in high pitched Mickey Mouse voices and this is normal".
Does anyone know actually know a real woman who speaks is this tonal range, (who's not insane? ). Melissa Rauch added this to the character herself and it got her a long-term position on the show but it also meant the believability of the characters was fair game. Amy tends to get the finger pointed at her but maybe it was Bernadette, who started this unfortunate change.
Was Bernadette modeled on this...?
Getting back on topic....
I wish Howard and Bernadette a painful divorce! and they'd better make it so FUNNY that I'm falling on the floor. The show needs some laughs. They can palm her off on to another character if they like or just faze her out. She's kind of boring anyway. I didn't mind her once but the whole marriage thing, has been a fast forward moment I wouldn't mind seeing the back of her. Howard and Bernadette splitting up could actually give the writers some new ideas again. Instead of just progressing down this married life road. *zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz*
There's always been plausibility issues. Like how can Penny not have a KNOWN surname when Leonard stole her mail in season one? And there have been arguments about how much the guys earn AND how Penny could afford that apartment on a waitresses income for years. I guess some things we have to take with a grain of salt. For me, the hardest to swallow are the emotional contradictions.
