7.17 The Friendship Turbulence
#66
What was completely asinine: Serial Apeist 2

This premise was so bad, that I can't believe the writers (even with the low opinion I have of them) had the balls to put this crap on the air. So let's go deeper into what made this idea stupid.

1. Serial Apeist was never released, therefore a sequel of a movie so bad that it wasn't released would NEVER happen. (Even people with absolutely no entertainment savvy know this).

2. So they took Penny's most embarrassing and humiliating secret in 7.1 and made it not only open for all to know about (even the girls), but apparently Sheldon (who knows how she felt about doing this role hurt her) continues to twist the knife in "am I missing something here, or isn't that the part she was born to play" (brother my ass). This is troubling in itself, but add into that Penny seems to have forgotten about the humiliation is just sad and wrong. (Continuity on this show sucks!)

3. Leonard's OOC moment- so we're supposed to buy that Leonard who was so jealous that The role she took in a prime time television show would have had more than flirting in it, but he's not concerned at all that the type of move like serial Apeist (one who Raj helpfully told us that not only had a naked shower scene, but a barely covered sorority sister pillow fight) always has gratuitous nudity and sex. Sorry, not believable. To be in character, here's how the scene really would have gone:

Leonard: are you really not going to take this job?
Penny: It's not the kind of part that would give somebody their break and I didn't think you would want me to take it.
Leonard: not want you to take it! Penny I'm excited that someone offered you a part and I'm a little surprised you would rather sit at home and do nothing then take a part that adds to your resume.
Penny: I just don't think this is a good part for me to take Leonard, plus the sex scene made me uncomfortable.
Leonard: Wait, sex scene, but your half ape!
Penny: Well yes, but the professor that does the cloning loved me and there's a flashback scene of us having sex in his office.
Leonard: On second thought, you're so much better then taking off your clothes and having sex with handsome want to be actors. I'm sure something else will come up.

Side note: is it just me or does anyone else feel like Raj's line of Penny showering naked and having pillow fights with her sorority sisters would have been funnier coming from Amy? Plus you add Sheldon's come back line and just the thought makes me laugh.
“There are no scenes more fun to do, I feel like, than the ones between Sheldon and Penny. They are such a wonderful odd couple.” - Jim Parsons
