The Big Bang Theory Theory

The best part of this episode technically didn't happen, because the makers of this show want us to have less fun.

JUST KISS ALREADY

Maybe the writers were negotiating their pay during this period because they sure as well weren't drafting whole episodes.

If we are doomed to a life of infinite suffering, we can at least choose what suffering we shall endure.

For real I think this one's just salvaged footage from other incomplete episodes.

I don't think we make that clear enough. Sheldon nasty.

Any other configuration of these characters would make a better show than whatever the hell they're doing.

Denzel Washington rules.

We didn't even mention that Sheldon does the Flamenco!

Technically a good episode but dang why can't we have more of The Wire?

I swear, we're still having fun!

The title says it all, baby!

Instead of escaping reality, this episode reminds everyone how adding a laugh track wouldn't really make your miserable life any funnier.

This episode stinks! Fortunately, technical difficulties have granted us (and you!) sweet release.

Nick thinks this is a perfect episode so let's just let him have this one.

I swear I wasn't trying to commit to the False Start title, I was just so carried away by soup that I accidentally released our last bonus episode as a main feed episode. So here's the REAL first episode of the season, and now you also have an idea of that hot soup content you're missing if you're not on our bonus feed at: patreon.com/tbbtt

This isn't the worst episode but Nick is confident the production is unravelling.

You just have to rely on actors who aren't part of the main cast.

This show sucks but it turns out Stuart is by far the funniest character on board.

Turns out dating two babes at once is extra hard if you suck.

I guess this is a Game of Thrones episode? OF ILL PORTENT

Raj tries to steal the joy of pregnancy from Wolowtiz and Bernie. Meanwhile, we learn that Leonard is secretly hoarding money, that Sheldon is a great lay, and that no one ever actually finishes Final Fantasy Tactics.

We've cracked it open. This is sitcom version of mayonnaise. Which is weird because I usually love mayonnaise. Maybe it's more like white bread... But I love that too! AGHGH

Raj is juggling babes and everyone is acting like that isn't the most exciting thing that's ever happened in this whole series.

Adam West is the Adam best.

But why? I didn't even talk about it in the episode, but a scene takes place in a tiki bar, and, that's cool but for real what's up with tiki culture? I get it, it's fun, but, why of all things has it persevered?

For the first time ever, we've lost an episode. And while I'm ashamed that I cannot bring you the joy that comes from Kyle's enthusiasm for Superman, I can at least bring you his love of thinking about philosophy stuff.Also, please support the show so we can afford a producer: patreon.com/tbbtt

We've hit a new peak of not talking about the episode. You're welcome!

Sheldon's grandma shows up and carries on the show's noble tradition of having mom characters that are cooler than any of the main cast. Also Raj is gonna smooch a blonde lady.

Nick gets sensitive about friend dynamics. Meanwhile, if you listen closely enough, you can hear the plastic squeaking of Kyle's cool new Transformers toy. Also we watch a TV show.

Amidst our ramblings about each of us accepting our own neurodivergence, we talk a bit about this dumb show and all of its good moms.

Sex.

He's back and he's as tall as ever! And we talk about other stuff.Check out our bonus content and help support the show by becoming a patron at: patreon.com/tbbtt

Sheldon gets the most real he's ever been, and Leonard wants to be bullied in a negligee.

Also, Bernadette is a real actual stalker but I bet it will never come up again.

Sheldon finally admits he has feelings. Wolowitz thinks having a baby will fix things. Nick and Kyle are anxious about the state of the world.

The nerds spend the whole episode worrying whether there's an ethical reason they can't buy back alley helium.

Stuart nasty.

We're back! Technically we never left, but Nick accidentally sent the show into the void for a bit. Thanks for hanging with us through these completely avoidable yet nonetheless turbulent times.

The gang once again fails to make their journey to a different set.

Sheldon's a creep but it's pretty funny

New year, new problems. Sorry the audio stinks! We love you!

Marriages a-go-go, baby!

The two best characters in the series show up and blow everyone else out of the water.

We've entered the age of consumer ready drone technology, and no one is safe from Wolowitz's gaze.

Kyle and I wonder which type of Greek alphabet hunks we might be.

It's a pretty good game.

SpooOooOoooOOky!

The show is milking all it can out of "Deborah" Wolowitz' passing.

The only good part about this episode is its demonstration of a healthy sexual relationship.
