Amy's reason for being on the dating website that led her to meeting Sheldon. When we first met her she said that she went on a date once a year in exchange for her mother's silence on the matter. A few seasons later Amy is helping Raj with online dating and says that she was really lonely and ready to give up on online dating before meeting Sheldon.
@@stacyshevardi170 I don't know about CA and Nebraska specifically, but in some states, and just some jurisdictions in some states, you can be "detained," which is different from being arrested, for public drunkenness, and other incidents of "making a scene" (not a legal term), although, you just go to the drunk tank, usually at county lock-up, which means technically, "jail," not "prison." Also, it is entirely possible Penny has committed arrestable offenses (like shoplifting and underage drinking, or as an adult, supplying minors), and just not been caught.
Sheldon not complying to the Roommate Agreement is not a plot hole.He just uses it to suit himself. As the Corona virus has hit the world...we need to adopt Sheldon's hygiene. Stay safe.
True he even says when Leonard tries to use it against him it is there to make sure he always gets his way, he says the same thing about the relationship agreement to amy.
True!!!!!!!! When Lenorad trys to use the roommate agreement against Sheldon he says its different the roommate agreement is so Sheldon can get his way
Exactly, so when Sheldon decides to ruin Amy's favorite show, he doesn't because, unlike the plot hole in "The Riders of the Lost Ark", which Amy notices, all comments made by Sheldon on "The Little House on the Prairie" are pointless. It bothers me every time.
In Pennsylvania my sister needed to get a pharmaceutical certificate of some sort (which required schooling) in order to legally be eligible for hire in order to sell pharmaceuticals. But that was years ago.
Penny finished high school. Lots of people haven’t gone to college and are doing fine. And it’s likely that Penny has taken some form of continued education as her career progresses.
I've always wanted to go to Comic-Con. Why I haven't yet is beyond me considering we have one where I live. They went there in the show. Bakersfield! Why anyone would come here for that is beyond me. Lol
Okay hear me out, I do recall an episode where Raj asks Sheldon to speak in Hindi, after Sheldon speaks Hindi, Leonard and Howard asked Raj what Sheldon meant; to which Raj replied that he didn't know Hindi himself. But he grew up in India and a few episodes later he spoke in Hindi on a date with Anu...
Yeah, no... I believe Raj only knew rudimentary Hindi in order to uphold a short conversation or to just speak in general terms, just not into the complete details of his origins language (new dehli)
Sheldon spoke Hindi with such a terrible accent that even a native Hindi speaker couldn't understand it(I know this because I am an Native Hindi speaker). So when Raj said that he didn't know Hindi, it was just a snarky comment on Shledon's terrible accent.
Well, I am a native Hindi speaker and Sheldon spoke Hindi with a terrible accent. He almost didn't speak Hindi at all, if you ask me. And that's what they wanted to show, I am sure, with Raj asking him to translate (or whatever it was).
The biggest plot hole for me was using the same actor/actress for two different roles! That happened twice on the show: 1- Leonard's bully in high school is himself Sheldon's father who appears on the video tape later. 2- The girl who showed up at Sheldon's door as a winner of Sheldon's 'girlfriend contest' after he broke up with Amy was also the model who opened the door for Raj and Howard on their visit to the house of supermodels as maintenance guys earlier.
well clearly not Sheldon Raj says it is card and it looks like and fees like a letter. Plus the fact Sheldon calls it a letter. Amy, maybe but Sheldon reaction to what she said and Howard's reaction makes me think not Penny, he did have a brother. But he was easily found when he wanted house signed over. Leonard, His is possible Bernie, same reason as Raj. I think it is Leonard or is Leonard and Penny combined.
In a season 12 episode, Raj gets into a twitter war with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, acting as if they don't know each other. Yet Tyson makes an appearance years before on the show, where Raj introduces him to Sheldon as his friend.
if you watch Young Sheldon you'll see the guy who tested him wasn't exactly a great psychologist. Hence why Mrs Cooper regrets not following up with that specialist in huston :P
Pharmaceutical sales is much more sales than pharmaceutical. You do not need to have any medical background beyond the training they give you for a lot of the jobs. In fact many get hired from business school.
And - a big part of her job was to be familiar with all the attributes of the drugs she was promoting and how they are superior to the competitions. The key for that is having a good memory. As someone who trained to be an actress she would have an exceptional memory.
This video should really be called the Top 5 plot holes, since five mentioned were NOT: 1. Sheldon didn't care about about Leonard sitting in his spot during the practice trivia scene because Sheldon was in his 'work' chair, rather than his spot where he usually eats. There is a scene where he says that he doesn't work in his spot and eat in his chair. 2. Sheldon breaching the roommate agreement is not a loophole. He distinctly says on several occasions that he creates the roommate agreement to benefit himself. 3. Penny's sister isn't a plot hole, they just didn't address her. 4. Penny getting a job as a salesperson doesn't require qualifications in the same way as you would need for getting a technical job. She clearly has very good communication/people skills and connected with the interviewer, which is a very credible way of her getting the job as a salesperson (broadly, she only needs to remember the effects, advantages and disadvantages of drugs). 5. Though I agree Howard probably wasn't in the best shape for space, he DID pass all the astronaut tests (i.e. when he survived survival training when he ate the butterfly). Further to this, when he was offered to go to space again for the second time, his health tests were all in check (i.e. blood pressure). Also, even though his mother and Bernadette came to help him, NASA didn't know that..
I agree with the rest but 1 is still a plot hole as sheldon has said many times that even if he's not there no one can sit in his spot. So he would definitely not be fine with anyone sitting in his spot even if he was sat elsewhere in the room
I agree, one exception. Howard's health issues such as some sort of inherent heart disease and volatile blood pressure appear in many episodes so him passing health tests to be an astronaut is basically impossible. I take it as a plot hole.
Weighing in on the cat issue / #3. Sheldon is clearly having a mental breakdown. In reality, the "Cat Allergy" was probably something he made up to keep the apartment pet-free and clean. Hence why the rest of the characters are so surprised when Sheldon gets a cat - a sign that he's clearly having issues. Saying this is a plot hole is a bit of a stretch.
Sheldon can't lie. Remember the episode where leonard was off to priya I believe and told sheldon to tell the rest of the group he was going to the office and he couldn't lie convincingly at all. Even if he were to lie like he once did to penny to not attend her singing show, he would've planned out a perfect lie as not to have a way for leonard to find out he was lying
And in season 11 I think when raj has curly hair he said it was straight because Howard's was and he was the "coolest person" he knew and in the flashbacks Howard's hair is curly
It's more like "the writers didn't care". The show had so many different things that were thrown in for one off bits or cheap jokes that consistancy doesn't matter
IshRona Iqbal me personally I was hoping he’d come out the closet there are some episodes that he either says or does things that are gay let’s not forget his “homosexual” relationship with Howard let’s not forget when they kissed.
He overcame selective mutism, became financial independent, and he decided not to continue his relationship with Anu because he realized she wasn't right for him, which is important because before, he was so desperate that he pursued any woman who would go out with him. He matured a lot, and I'm sure he has what it takes to have a functioning relationship.
In the episode where Kripke and Sheldon competed in various sports to get the office, Kripke showed the same physicality as Sheldon, a person with no athletic ability at all. But in later episodes, he did rock climbing, opened a fencing club at the university, and was doing really well on the treadmill beside Mrs. Davis.
@@theumes4553 they used the clip of it landing on his shoulder then they started laughing so there is a cut. they wanted to keep it so they re shot it with the paper on his shoulder
No but a bachelors degree in business or public health is recommended, especially with no experience even as a small-time sales rep. At most, penny has an associate's degree from community college (possibly low GPA) and Cheesecake Factory waitress on her CV. At this point, most companies wouldn't even consider an interview.
@Andrew Smith All you have to do is read the material on the medications. Its that simple. Many companies hire pretty girls with no experience to sell for them. Men are more willing to sit down and talk to pretty girls than they are other dudes.
Actually, you are selling them to doctors. You visit doctors, and introduce them to your new med to treat this or that condition, and explain why it's better than the drug your competitor has to treat the same condition-- it has fewer side effects; it doesn't interact with other drugs; it is effective over a shorter period of time, or if it is for chronic conditions, it is safe to take for extended periods of time; it's oral, not an injection, or it's injected into fat with a tiny needle, not into muscle with a huge needle (less pain); the competitor's drug only works for 78% of users, our drug in studies worked for 97%. And so on. That is the kind of thing the rep needs to memorize, BTW.
@Andrew Smith Bernadette got her the job, the person who Penny and the person hiring are both terrified of. The person hiring Penny had finally found someone else who understood who scary Bernadette is which was a big reason in how she got hired. She'd also very pretty, which she's used to help pitch sales and has great people skills.
Sheldon didn't forget about the roommate agreement with the cats. He just ignored it. Bullied it onto Leonard, ignores it when it goes against him and Leonard's too submissive to do anything
@@klaraleblochova He literally said just that to Amy once. She fell sick, he said the agreement was to force her to take care of him but not the other way around
@Andrew Smith Leonard has the small bedroom, and it really is kind of crappy compared to Sheldon's. Particularly the window. Sheldon has a spectacular view, and Leonard has just enough window for the firecodes. Given what rents are in that part of CA, their rent differential may be significant. Also, Sheldon has a TV in his room, and Leonard doesn't, which means that Sheldon has a cable hook-up, and Leonard might not. Some landlords are butts about limiting the number of hookups a unit can have.
Another plot hole you guys missed: in the first ever episode, when Sheldon is talking about how he did an experiment with stairs when he was 12 and his father broke his clavicle, Leonard asked if that was why he was sent to boarding school and Sheldon said “No, that was the result of my work with lasers.” That’s a big plot hole right there because when he was 12, Sheldon was in college, which he began attending at age 11
@@idonthaveanoriginalname2881 these were the lines: “If most steps are off by a height of 2 millimeters, most people will trip.” “I don’t care…2 millimeters? That doesn’t seem right.” “No it’s true. I did a series of tests when I was twelve. My father broke his clavicle.” “Is that why they sent you to boarding school?” “No, that was the result of my work with lasers.”
@@Rockhound6165 Oh God, you've never seen an interview with the actress, have you? Her voice isn't squeaky offscreen. It was a quirk written in to add to the ongoing joke about Howard's unhealthy attachment to his mother insofar as the voice imitates Mrs. Wolowitz.
@@belleenigma1528 whats wrong with not knowing an interview from the actress? some people just enjoy the show, i dont give a fuck about the actors life, its a comedy anyways, it doesnt have to be perfect at all.
That's not true. They are referencing her pregnancy with Hallie here in the video and Melissa Rauch actually had a miscarriage during that season. She got pregnant again between seasons and that's why they wrote her pregnancy with Michael into the show.
Amy’s mother was different person in the first video call with sheldon and amy , one time penny said that leonerd don’t snore but later he had to take an surgery for snoring
@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin You must have been when making that account
4 ปีที่แล้ว +6
For me, the most annoying inconsistency was Leonard's snoring. In early seasons, it was a recurring joke that Penny was the snorer while Leonard was a quiet sleeper (as Sheldon would describe as one of his qualities), and then all of a sudden in S8 Leonard is getting a septum surgery to address his snoring issues...
I'm surprised that the only plot hole, I had ever noticed on Big Bang, didn't make it on this list. I remember in the very beginning of the first season, Sheldon knocked on Penny's door with out his "3x knock and call" tick. But sometime much later in the series, we discovered that the reason Sheldon knocked and call the persons name three times every time, was because of something (I forget what though) that had happened long before the beginning of the series. I was really expecting that to be here.
As someone who has selective mutism: I have done the thing raj did. It was never on purpose and I always felt ashamed afterwards(I felt ashamed for not talking but also felt ashamed when I accidentally blurted out sonething to someone I usually never talked with), but I have definitely either not noticed someone in the room, or forgot they were there, or just mistaken a stranger to be someone I knew that I talked with.
i agree, also under the assumption that Sheldon has ASD, a 99% possibility, i also have ASD and will sometimes break agreements, i doubt sheldon had a cat allergy, he probably doesn't generally like cats, but emotional distress can do many things like for example forget we told someone something then telling that same person something that shows we lied
@@kayleas5328 I've known adults who had severe Selective Mutism as children, and still had traces of it as adults (albeit, unlike Raj, all took anti-anxiety medication). Most of them still didn't speak very often, and many pretty much only spoke when directly asked questions, but many would sometimes blurt out things in exactly the situation Raj does-- someone says something alarming and slightly threatening. Sure, it's a joke, but if you are the punchline, the alarming part may register before the "joke" part does.
There are pretty good antihistamines out there. Someone I know whose cat allergy could have put her in the hospital in the 1980s now takes a prescription allergy med, and actually owns two cats. So Sheldon could have had an allergy that was a big issue as a child, but which can be treated now. He may be willing to treat it when HE wants a cat-- not so much when LEONARD wants one. A bigger issue, I think, is not that Leonard says he has allergies, but that Leonard says he has asthma.
she didn't even get it right about an "allergy" Leonard says that Sheldon has "asthma" in which he has no inhaler to cater to it, but at this point I'm just nit picking at the lies Sheldon's told to get his Heine out from a ditch.
Another plot hole: in the first season howard often explains that the marriage of his parents work out because of the amount of alcohol his father drinks. But later he tells us that his father left when he was a kid🤷♀️
I don't think it is meant to be the same person its just the same actor and @yousuf seedat Sheldon's dad is seen in the episode with the past sheldon/football tape
@Andrew Smith Yes, but they gave us multiple episodes about Sheldon convincing his brother to attend his wedding -- and nothing at all about Leonard's siblings. I guess the writers weren't up to it. And that recent episode where Leonard and his mother worked out their differences was so contrived it was painful. Two great actors there, swimming as hard has they could to keep that final scene afloat.
@Andrew Smith We have no idea how Leonard feels about any of his siblings. The writers never really bothered. I recall his brother sending him a Christmas letter once. Which made me feel relieved. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been one single person in the world who loved Leonard. And that would be too sad to bear. Cold, disapproving mother. Ineffectual, self-involved father -- who picks up a woman at his son's rehearsal dinner? Abusive room-mate. Needy friends -- and was Leonard ever really friends with Raj, or was he the friend of a friend whose sister he shagged for a while? And Penny -- ashamed of him, and the most begrudging giver of affection in the world. Leonard is so lovable, and so remarkably unloved. I hope his child will love him.
@Andrew Smith Agreed. Now that you mention it it seems that Leonard had the saddest backstory where his family was concerned out of all of the characters. (Okay so Howard's mom was overbearing and his dad left but at least his mom was there for him, even if it was just a bit too much) Leonard's mom was clearly a narcissist who never gave her son any real love or praise
Sheldon has the sadder backstory if anything, his father went from the kind and supportive man who beat up a woman’s abusive partner to protect said woman’s daughter from him to a drunk slob who cheated on his wife. I swear when Young Sheldon gets to the point where George goes through that transition it’s gonna be heartbreaking
@@mrcritical6751 Wow..I never knew his father was a drunk who cheated on his mom. I guess I missed the back story (Of course I have not watched the last two seasons.
Why did Bernadette start out as such a sweet and innocent character (literally shouting "I'm nice to EVERYONE!" into Raj's face when he fell in love with her), but then became one of the show's most obnoxious bullies in the later seasons? In the end she was so bitchy and mean, the other characters where literally afraid of her. It didn't even seem like she liked her own husband, let alone her friends. I hated what they did to her character.
The biggest change was Amy. She entered the show being a weirdo just like Sheldon, but suddenly she started acting normal like everyone else. I guess that change is thanks to her bestie Penny :P
@Lady Stog - I've theorized that it's the pressure of being the majority breadwinner plus Stewart living with them. That puts a lot of stress on a person.
She was living with 2 Howard and Stuart ( and often Raj) who didn't make much money and didn't do housework either. She was provider as well as homemaker so she was bound to be stressed.
@krishna murthy I get your point, and I agree that she was under a lot of pressure and deserved better, but being stressed and being a mean bitch who purposely hurts her friends are two different things 🤔
It's possible that Lisa wasn't at Penny's wedding because (A) they had a falling out or (B) she was in prison. Given her penchant for shooting her husband while drunk, Option B is highly likely.
In season 1 episode 13, Raj jokes about adding TV's Blossom to their physics bowl team, as she is apparently very smart and has a PhD in neuroscience. However, TV's Blossom is portrayed by actress Mayim Bialik, who we all know plays Amy later on in the show. Yet noone seems to recognize Mayim as Blossom.
And, in the episode where Amy and Sheldon are trying to find Halloween costumes of couples, they made a diagram with what they like, and Blossom is listed on Amy's side.
I mean he does in one episode he says something like his brain enforces anything in a contract that he writes up and Amy said it’s was due to his OCD or something like that
Just to add because it always bothered me. In the episode where Sheldon is stuck on a physics problem and refuses to go to sleep Bernadette sends him to bed, when asked how she was able to do so by Leonard she replies something along the lines of ‘I’m good with kids, my mom ran an illegal daycare out of our basement’. In a later episode where Howard has to do a magic show for a kids birthday party and him and Bernadette are discussing whether or not to have kids she then says something about ‘being terrible with kids, all their sticky noses and whining’ I noticed it the first time when the episodes played back to back and I was so confused.
You actually missed one at 7:07. Leonard says that he's taken Sheldon's asthma into account, but as we all know it's Leonard who has asthma, not Sheldon. I think though that this and some others on this list are from earlier seasons where the characters are still being fleshed out.
Leonard is seen using an inhaler multiple times in the show. As for Sheldon, i think he only stated his "allergies" to prevent Leonard from requiring a pet. If he lived with Raj he may have had his own. Raj is the luckiest one since he has a dog, can live how he wants in his own home and doesn't need to take care of a grown man like Leonard does. Sheldon realizes in one episode how much he needs his friends and roommate only to disregard him all throughout the show. Sheldon is just a narcissistic prick half the time who thinks is better than everyone else.
The reason the show is called "The Big Bang Theory" is because each episode is wholly separate from every other episode and all reside in parallel universes. Any resemblance to continuity is purely coincidental.
That is literally 98 percent of any american sitcom unless it states part 1 or part 2. This is why anime is better, it actually sticks with the storyline.
maybe sheldon was so upset about breaking up with amy in the first place that he tried to hurt him self by an allergic and have an companion for the lost
Season 1's being repeated in the UK, so I've recently seen one where Raj signed up for a trial of anxiety medication. He arrives and tells all present (including Penny) this, then his hand starts waving apparently of its own accord - a side effect he says. He's able to talk to everyone throughout the episode, but his hands do odd things if Penny's around. So reason 6 had a story for him talking.
@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin Very late, but if an elephant had a baby after 12 months I would be bit worried as a quick google search puts it in the 18-22 month range.
Oh, I got one more, the biggest 'WTF?' in Big Bang Theory as far as I'm concerned - **Bernadette's entire personality overhaul!** She started as a quiet, sweet, very gentle woman. Very innocent as well in many respects and very soft spoken as well. But as their relationship progresses, Bernadette's entire personality begins to shift. By the time she meets Howard's mother in the hospital (she had food poisoning from the deli) Bernadette is incredibly loud and aggressive. From there, it only spirals until apparently, Bernadette is a, scary, ball-busting, no-nonsense woman. Not sure what the writers were thinking here, but that personality switch has always stood out to me.
@@resilienceofagypsy3998 No. She's the reason why Howard is not a jerk anymore. She's also the one that helped Raj in a lot of occasions. Her giving Penny a job, she added 2 babies to the show, she helped Amy during the break-up, and a lot more. She's just underrated because the story doesn't revolve around her.
@@37shshshsh nah shes annoying and dorsnt add anything. The kids are irrelevant as they're only in like one episode and play no part and howard is still a creep
We've come to see sitcoms as low-effort trash for some reason, but there have been plenty of decent, smart sitcoms. We just need to have better standards.
Sheldon once mentioned that when he was 9 he skipped 4th grade and went straight to high school. But in one episode Sheldon says, "Not to brag, but I spent most of fifth grade with my head in a toilet." Plus, another time, Sheldon says that in fourth grade, Mrs. Wunch made him line monitor.
Raj's selective mutism was entirely in his mind and based on nervousness, which means that if he was distracted or extra comfortable, it could disappear. That's why alcohol worked. So it's not a plot hole, we just got to see a few moments where Raj forgot to emotionally tie himself up in knots.
Rebecca Maracle He spoke in front of Lesley Winkle (sorry if incorrect spelling) at the physics bowl. Probably feeling confident in their chances of winning.
Sometimes that happens in real life to, when you are experiencing it for yourself new feelings arise, also the show did make Bernadette kind of conflicted in a few episodes if I remember correctly
Actually Bernie does come around to it somewhat before she gets pregnant after Howie promises her that having kids isn't going to automatically mean she'll have to give up her career. They kind of reach of point of "Well, let's just live our life and if it happens it happens."
My girlfriend is autistic and essentially a female Sheldon and we recently watched big bang from start to finish. If there's a plot hole. She pointed it out.
The spot doesn't really matter when he's at his computer or in agreement with the others to give it up. Yes, it's his spot, but if he's sitting across the room at his computer, it doesn't really matter that someone is in his spot.
Not true. Sheldon is about to leave in the Paint Ball episode. Penny is sitting there and he says it's his spot but not planning to sit there. Penny says that it represents him being at 0000.
The actual reason for these plot holes, is that this show's ep's were not decided a year in advance like 99% of other shows. They are written usually on a week before that ep is due to air and no real thought is put into the sequence of events so a few plot holes per season now persist, not that the show writers care for them..... they're frekking millionair's by now anyways(BOTH... cast AND writers).
While watching it for the first time itself, I noticed the plot hole of Raj talking in front of Penny. And, the Sheldon's cat allergy contradiction too. And, Sheldon letting go of his spot. 😂
In season 1, both Missy and Sheldon's mom mentioned they had a dog, around the time Young Sheldon took place. However, in Young Sheldon, not only do they not have a dog, but Sheldon is afraid of dogs.
@Andrew Smith His mom said that he wanted to build a nuclear reactor (or something), and when men from the government came to his home and told him that he could buy fissionable material off the Internet, he built a deathray. His mom said it "pissed our dog off to no end." Something similar to that happened in season 1 of Young Sheldon.
Oh, well, Young Sheldon has almost nothing to do with the character in the Big Bang Theory. You may have noticed that the little boy in Young Sheldon looks like a young Chandler Bing, not a young Sheldon Cooper. And YS is set at least 15 years too early. Nothing about that show looks like 1989 or 1990 to me. And why does he dress like a child when he's an adult, when he apparently didn't dress like a child when he was one?
This isn't so much a plot hole as an inaccurate portrayal of the scientific community, but it is extremely unrealistic that Sheldon and Amy won a Nobel Prize only one year after making their discovery. I think it was a great way to end the show, but the finale should have been set 20 years in the future. Then we could have seen Halley, Neil Michael, and Penny and Leonard's baby grown up.
My theory's that Sheldon unexpectedly wanting to leave the show left the writers with a bunch of story lines that they *wanted* to introduce over the next, say, 2 or 3 seasons--but they had to pick the ones they liked the best and cram them into the final season instead.
Y'all neglected to mention how Sheldon's obsessive three-knock knocking wasn't a "thing" from the very beginning of the series. He even knocked regularly in the very first episode.
A couple problems: The fact that Bernadette's boss was THAT scared of her WAS the reason penny got the job and it even said earlier in the scene that she had no qualifications which is why he couldn't hire her and she was about to walk out. At 4:52 you can see a red bull on the table. Howard's lack of courage has nothing to do with it, sure it is a big part of going to space but they needed him in space to work the toilet since he built it.
It's not Howard's lack of courage that would have kept him out of space. It's his heart. He has transient idiopathic arrhythmia, as he tells us many times in the early seasons. He would have died up there.
All of those things happened in Dr Strange's visions of the future in which Thanos wins. Since we Thanos lost in Endgame, those never happened. Checkmate!
You don't actually need a medical degree for a pharmaceutical sales position, just experience in sales. Also, there's MULTIPLE comic-cons in multiple cities just within the California area alone, and Leonard doesn't specify WHICH comic-con he got that sketch at (Anaheim, SF, LA...). Also, it's fairly obvious that the roommate agreement is just a cover for Sheldon to seem to maintain a measure of control; the truth is he's just looking for both friends and control, and the so-called agreement is just a psychological clutch he can fall back on if needed.
@Andrew Smith They are if they're good, the more they "sell" the high the total check, the higher the check, the higher the tip.+ the happier the management.
@Andrew Smith , all her references have PhD's. Also penny is a young, blond and beautiful women and that is a key part of being a sales rep and convincing most male doctors to use your products. Although she lacks a medical background, she has worked as a bartender, a waitress and an actress, surely she has an above average memory which is required for her job
I would like to believe Sheldon meant he couldn't afford rent on his own because he's putting so much away in retirement and savings. He's always been a very cautious person and who better to take care of his old self than his young self.
Another potential ‘plothole’ (although it’s more a mistake) is Sheldon’s opinion of brunch - in Season 4 Episode 6, Sheldon expresses a liking for brunch, but in Season 6 Episode 13, Amy says “Sheldon doesn’t believe in brunch”
I'm sorry, I'm probably not the target audience for the Channel, but the idea behind Miss Mojo Channel is confusing and kinda pointless to me. What's the difference between this and WatchMojo?
In an early season Sheldon says: " there may be infinite amount of parellel universes and I can asure you in none of them do I ever dance" and few more times they mention that they don't dance at all. But in a later season sheldon dances and mentions that he used to dance when he was a kid
Early in the series it is stated by Sheldon himself that Leonard doesn't snore, yet many seasons later Leonard wants to undergo nose surgery to remove his snoring and it is even said he's been snoring since ever.
You missed where Sheldon tries to sell the red laptop to the dry cleaner , when as we know he cannot get rid of anything & puts it into storage. Also Sheldon didnt acknowledge that Leonards childhood bully was actually his dad in Young Sheldon .
How did sheldon get all his stuff in that storage anyway? Amy had to drive him but is the first to know... #2 sheldon won t drink coffee or energy drink. Yet drinks mountain dew.. He shows with the Pringle can he memorizes content. So he should know mountain dew is cafinated. ( the cat allergy thing was busted in a comic con interview, blaming sheldon to be over conserved with his own health)
You missed one : In one of the episodes Raj suggests that Sheldon shud learn Hindi if he wants a hobby and Sheldon responds with "Mujhe Hindi aati hai." (I know Hindi) to which Raj says sorry can u pls translate I don't actually know Hindi. And later in another season Raj and Sheldon fight over whose the better Bollywood actress while watching a Bollywood movie together.
Not only did Sheldon adopt cats, but in a later episode (season 7-10 i'm not sure) he specificly states that he is getting a turtle with Amy. He says the turtle was going to stay at his apartment.
The few clips you showed of othet people in Sheldons spot can be explained. While they were practising for the quiz thing, he couod have insisted they sit in the same order they would on the panel giving Leonard a temporary pass. Same with Raj sitting there while Sheldon was doing work at his computer.
What would happen if use 💯% of our brain. The big bang theory : you literally become Sheldon (an extraterrestrial being)🤣😂. This comment is just for fun, please don't be get offended for Sheldon unless you're Sheldon !!!
The sad thing is all these plot holes could have been filled by the writers taking some time to do a goddamn wiki walk or Google search. Oh, and another plot hole I noticed in TBBT is Penny's shock at Wyatt telling her he accidentally backed her pet pig over with a tractor even though an earlier episode (the one where Professor Proton died) had her saying the only time she ever lost someone close to her was when her pig died. Sure, she could have gotten Moondance to replace that first pig but still.
Did you notice any other plot holes when watching the show?! Let us know below!
Amy's reason for being on the dating website that led her to meeting Sheldon. When we first met her she said that she went on a date once a year in exchange for her mother's silence on the matter. A few seasons later Amy is helping Raj with online dating and says that she was really lonely and ready to give up on online dating before meeting Sheldon.
Amy's mother first appears in season 4 and then again in season 11 finale, but is portrayed by another actress.

Sheldon's spot being shot by Penny with the paintball gun ruining it for him as it is no longer 0,0,0,0
The most logical reason why Pennys sister wasnt at her wedding was that she was in Prison,
reason: she shot her Man.
In the drinking game “never have I ever” she said she has never been arrested
@@stacyshevardi170 I don't know about CA and Nebraska specifically, but in some states, and just some jurisdictions in some states, you can be "detained," which is different from being arrested, for public drunkenness, and other incidents of "making a scene" (not a legal term), although, you just go to the drunk tank, usually at county lock-up, which means technically, "jail," not "prison." Also, it is entirely possible Penny has committed arrestable offenses (like shoplifting and underage drinking, or as an adult, supplying minors), and just not been caught.

Sheldon not complying to the Roommate Agreement is not a plot hole.He just uses it to suit himself.
As the Corona virus has hit the world...we need to adopt Sheldon's hygiene. Stay safe.
True he even says when Leonard tries to use it against him it is there to make sure he always gets his way, he says the same thing about the relationship agreement to amy.
That's true, Sheldon wrote the roommate agreement so he's free to break it whenever he wants
"Rules for thee, not for me."
True!!!!!!!! When Lenorad trys to use the roommate agreement against Sheldon he says its different the roommate agreement is so Sheldon can get his way
@@ashtonelizabetholiver9113 now you realize original mojo is way better.
"it wouldn't happen in real life" is not a plot hole
Exactly, so when Sheldon decides to ruin Amy's favorite show, he doesn't because, unlike the plot hole in "The Riders of the Lost Ark", which Amy notices, all comments made by Sheldon on "The Little House on the Prairie" are pointless. It bothers me every time.
Amy's mum was recast and her whole personality changes dramatically in a short amount of time.
Ayla Noble Kahy Bates and Teller were mostly likely chosen to gain ratings.
I was surprised the change was so drastic.
7 years
I noticed that too!
Everyone knows that 🤙🏽
#7 not a plot hole, it is common practice for pharmaceutical companies to hire attractive women as sales reps and just tell them what to say.
A doctor I know married a pharm rep and she still looks great after having had a couple of kids.
@@HariSeldon913 so your wife doesnt have the required degrees too you mean?
In Pennsylvania my sister needed to get a pharmaceutical certificate of some sort (which required schooling) in order to legally be eligible for hire in order to sell pharmaceuticals. But that was years ago.
pretty sure the boss is just scared of bernadette
Penny finished high school. Lots of people haven’t gone to college and are doing fine. And it’s likely that Penny has taken some form of continued education as her career progresses.
Leonard didn’t mention the summer, he said “two years ago at Comic-Con” there’s more then one Comic-Con, I go to one in November
Aaron Price also 2 years ago says in the episode of the 5th season(2012). That is 2010 not 2009.. right???
and even it was 2009 people can do more than one thing in a year.
@@theresa837008 That said, Sheldon does bring up to penny that he missed comicon, and the new star trek movie because of the 3 month trip.
I've always wanted to go to Comic-Con. Why I haven't yet is beyond me considering we have one where I live. They went there in the show. Bakersfield! Why anyone would come here for that is beyond me. Lol
Comic-Con is a comic convention that happens many times a year in many locations
Okay hear me out, I do recall an episode where Raj asks Sheldon to speak in Hindi, after Sheldon speaks Hindi, Leonard and Howard asked Raj what Sheldon meant; to which Raj replied that he didn't know Hindi himself. But he grew up in India and a few episodes later he spoke in Hindi on a date with Anu...
he also said in one episode he pretend he know Hindi, he just knew a couple words.
Yeah, no... I believe Raj only knew rudimentary Hindi in order to uphold a short conversation or to just speak in general terms, just not into the complete details of his origins language (new dehli)
Sheldon spoke Hindi with such a terrible accent that even a native Hindi speaker couldn't understand it(I know this because I am an Native Hindi speaker). So when Raj said that he didn't know Hindi, it was just a snarky comment on Shledon's terrible accent.
@@Tamanna_2812 i couldn't agree more. I tried listening what sheldon said a lot of time but it all sounded like gibberish
Well, I am a native Hindi speaker and Sheldon spoke Hindi with a terrible accent. He almost didn't speak Hindi at all, if you ask me. And that's what they wanted to show, I am sure, with Raj asking him to translate (or whatever it was).
The biggest plot hole for me was using the same actor/actress for two different roles! That happened twice on the show:
1- Leonard's bully in high school is himself Sheldon's father who appears on the video tape later.
2- The girl who showed up at Sheldon's door as a winner of Sheldon's 'girlfriend contest' after he broke up with Amy was also the model who opened the door for Raj and Howard on their visit to the house of supermodels as maintenance guys earlier.
I'm sad that we never had an episode where Howard's father came back.
i kinda wanted to eventually find out what his dad's letter said.
Well we have 6 possibilities
Yeah that is a strange thread not to have resolved.
well clearly not Sheldon
Raj says it is card and it looks like and fees like a letter. Plus the fact Sheldon calls it a letter.
Amy, maybe but Sheldon reaction to what she said and Howard's reaction makes me think not
Penny, he did have a brother. But he was easily found when he wanted house signed over.
Leonard, His is possible
Bernie, same reason as Raj.
I think it is Leonard or is Leonard and Penny combined.
Well they didnt have a black character. The jew was the best substitute
In a season 12 episode, Raj gets into a twitter war with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, acting as if they don't know each other. Yet Tyson makes an appearance years before on the show, where Raj introduces him to Sheldon as his friend.
I think that the biggest plot whole is the fact that "his mother had him tested" (as they often mention) *and the shrink found him normal*
maybe she had him tested at different doctor who doesn't specialize in aspergers, ocd and whatever things he has
if you watch Young Sheldon you'll see the guy who tested him wasn't exactly a great psychologist. Hence why Mrs Cooper regrets not following up with that specialist in huston :P
Sheldon has autism
To be fair Penny did do studying for the job over a couple of episodes, one when they went to Vegas.
Yeah but don't you need a license or some kinda degree for that job?
I think that John Oliver's episode about this topic shows that no such background is necessary for the job
Pharmaceutical sales? No degree needed
Pharmaceutical sales is much more sales than pharmaceutical. You do not need to have any medical background beyond the training they give you for a lot of the jobs. In fact many get hired from business school.
Right plus her references all have PHDs
@@juicypoops660 hahahhaha i never thought of that but it's true
She had experience in sales... One necessarily did not have to study
And - a big part of her job was to be familiar with all the attributes of the drugs she was promoting and how they are superior to the competitions. The key for that is having a good memory. As someone who trained to be an actress she would have an exceptional memory.
ya i was thinking this aswell, my friend has a business background and works in sales for IT Company
This video should really be called the Top 5 plot holes, since five mentioned were NOT:
1. Sheldon didn't care about about Leonard sitting in his spot during the practice trivia scene because Sheldon was in his 'work' chair, rather than his spot where he usually eats. There is a scene where he says that he doesn't work in his spot and eat in his chair.
2. Sheldon breaching the roommate agreement is not a loophole. He distinctly says on several occasions that he creates the roommate agreement to benefit himself.
3. Penny's sister isn't a plot hole, they just didn't address her.
4. Penny getting a job as a salesperson doesn't require qualifications in the same way as you would need for getting a technical job. She clearly has very good communication/people skills and connected with the interviewer, which is a very credible way of her getting the job as a salesperson (broadly, she only needs to remember the effects, advantages and disadvantages of drugs).
5. Though I agree Howard probably wasn't in the best shape for space, he DID pass all the astronaut tests (i.e. when he survived survival training when he ate the butterfly). Further to this, when he was offered to go to space again for the second time, his health tests were all in check (i.e. blood pressure). Also, even though his mother and Bernadette came to help him, NASA didn't know that..
LOVE YOUR REPLY!!!! TBBT RULE!!!
The 3rd on might explained she shooted her husband, so went to prison
Actually, I think Howard's cardiac arrhythmia would disqualify him-- but the video doesn't mention that!
I agree with the rest but 1 is still a plot hole as sheldon has said many times that even if he's not there no one can sit in his spot. So he would definitely not be fine with anyone sitting in his spot even if he was sat elsewhere in the room
I agree, one exception. Howard's health issues such as some sort of inherent heart disease and volatile blood pressure appear in many episodes so him passing health tests to be an astronaut is basically impossible. I take it as a plot hole.
Weighing in on the cat issue / #3. Sheldon is clearly having a mental breakdown. In reality, the "Cat Allergy" was probably something he made up to keep the apartment pet-free and clean. Hence why the rest of the characters are so surprised when Sheldon gets a cat - a sign that he's clearly having issues. Saying this is a plot hole is a bit of a stretch.
Sheldon can't lie. Remember the episode where leonard was off to priya I believe and told sheldon to tell the rest of the group he was going to the office and he couldn't lie convincingly at all.
Even if he were to lie like he once did to penny to not attend her singing show, he would've planned out a perfect lie as not to have a way for leonard to find out he was lying
Still, he is Asthmatic, not allergic to cats. With medication he could eaaily have a cat
And in season 11 I think when raj has curly hair he said it was straight because Howard's was and he was the "coolest person" he knew and in the flashbacks Howard's hair is curly
Come on mate, styles and haircuts change with time.
it was the time, they were at a point in time were curls were the "thing". Once they has=d gone out of style clearly Howard changed their hairstyles.
This is usually a good channel but these "plot holes" are awful. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel
Ikr I can literally argue why none of these except for one or two aren't plot holes
What's the difference between MissMojo and WatchMojo real quick? I don't get it
@@brainnjnnn I think ms mojo is more for tv while watchmojo is for films, comic books and things like that.
It's more like "the writers didn't care". The show had so many different things that were thrown in for one off bits or cheap jokes that consistancy doesn't matter
correct! there are more holes in the content of this few minute video than the show itself that runs for 12 years 😂🤣
So mad about Raj ending up with no one.
Same ):
He'll probably become a crazy cat lady. 😂
IshRona Iqbal me personally I was hoping he’d come out the closet there are some episodes that he either says or does things that are gay let’s not forget his “homosexual” relationship with Howard let’s not forget when they kissed.
Maybe there will be a new series called Raj!
He overcame selective mutism, became financial independent, and he decided not to continue his relationship with Anu because he realized she wasn't right for him, which is important because before, he was so desperate that he pursued any woman who would go out with him. He matured a lot, and I'm sure he has what it takes to have a functioning relationship.
In the episode where Kripke and Sheldon competed in various sports to get the office, Kripke showed the same physicality as Sheldon, a person with no athletic ability at all. But in later episodes, he did rock climbing, opened a fencing club at the university, and was doing really well on the treadmill beside Mrs. Davis.
thats not really a plot hole, He could have just gotten himself into shape
6:06
That fluck when the paper landed on his shoulder will not happen again in a million years in any tv series!

You don't need a medical background to work in pharmaceutical sales. You're selling them to pharmacists, not to the general public 🤦♀️
@Andrew Smith Yeah and all that requires is study. Obviously you have to know the product in order to sell it.
No but a bachelors degree in business or public health is recommended, especially with no experience even as a small-time sales rep. At most, penny has an associate's degree from community college (possibly low GPA) and Cheesecake Factory waitress on her CV. At this point, most companies wouldn't even consider an interview.
@Andrew Smith All you have to do is read the material on the medications. Its that simple. Many companies hire pretty girls with no experience to sell for them. Men are more willing to sit down and talk to pretty girls than they are other dudes.
Actually, you are selling them to doctors. You visit doctors, and introduce them to your new med to treat this or that condition, and explain why it's better than the drug your competitor has to treat the same condition-- it has fewer side effects; it doesn't interact with other drugs; it is effective over a shorter period of time, or if it is for chronic conditions, it is safe to take for extended periods of time; it's oral, not an injection, or it's injected into fat with a tiny needle, not into muscle with a huge needle (less pain); the competitor's drug only works for 78% of users, our drug in studies worked for 97%. And so on. That is the kind of thing the rep needs to memorize, BTW.
@Andrew Smith Bernadette got her the job, the person who Penny and the person hiring are both terrified of. The person hiring Penny had finally found someone else who understood who scary Bernadette is which was a big reason in how she got hired. She'd also very pretty, which she's used to help pitch sales and has great people skills.
Sheldon didn't forget about the roommate agreement with the cats. He just ignored it. Bullied it onto Leonard, ignores it when it goes against him and Leonard's too submissive to do anything
Right! Sheldon always does what he wants and every agreement is signed to make him an advantage.
Unless he classified them as emotional support animals
@@klaraleblochova He literally said just that to Amy once. She fell sick, he said the agreement was to force her to take care of him but not the other way around
I believe Sheldon is a hypocrite, but wouldn’t Leonard have pointed it out to him?
@Andrew Smith Leonard has the small bedroom, and it really is kind of crappy compared to Sheldon's. Particularly the window. Sheldon has a spectacular view, and Leonard has just enough window for the firecodes. Given what rents are in that part of CA, their rent differential may be significant. Also, Sheldon has a TV in his room, and Leonard doesn't, which means that Sheldon has a cable hook-up, and Leonard might not. Some landlords are butts about limiting the number of hookups a unit can have.
Howard's half brother...introduced and never heard from again
Oh yea that never went anywhere alot of things in the show didnt go anywhere most of the time the show stayed the same
Another plot hole you guys missed: in the first ever episode, when Sheldon is talking about how he did an experiment with stairs when he was 12 and his father broke his clavicle, Leonard asked if that was why he was sent to boarding school and Sheldon said “No, that was the result of my work with lasers.” That’s a big plot hole right there because when he was 12, Sheldon was in college, which he began attending at age 11
He didn't say the age he worked with lasers.
@@idonthaveanoriginalname2881 these were the lines:
“If most steps are off by a height of 2 millimeters, most people will trip.”
“I don’t care…2 millimeters? That doesn’t seem right.”
“No it’s true. I did a series of tests when I was twelve. My father broke his clavicle.”
“Is that why they sent you to boarding school?”
“No, that was the result of my work with lasers.”
@@TCWRebelsResistanceWords He said when he was 12 he worked with lasers which could be true, but he never said what age he went to boarding school.
He still went home -_- watch young Sheldon
There were many times Raj talked in front of Penny because he forgot she was there.
Like the Penny Blossoms scene where he's just in the kitchen while Penny and Sheldon sing
Yeah and a few times when girls have been in anther room and he fine until he realises they can hear him
There's even one time that he didn't know he was talking in front of penny and she said something and
most of your so-claimed "plot holes" are just nonsenses.
That's kind of the point. It was a very sloppily written show. No one really seemed to be taking continuity seriously..

@@Rockhound6165 Oh God, you've never seen an interview with the actress, have you? Her voice isn't squeaky offscreen. It was a quirk written in to add to the ongoing joke about Howard's unhealthy attachment to his mother insofar as the voice imitates Mrs. Wolowitz.
@@belleenigma1528 obviously. They meant that she forgot to speak squeakily at the start
@@belleenigma1528 whats wrong with not knowing an interview from the actress? some people just enjoy the show, i dont give a fuck about the actors life, its a comedy anyways, it doesnt have to be perfect at all.
I wish they would've kept that
The reason she was pregnant for so long is because she was actually pregnant from March to December irl
Ohhhh
That's not true. They are referencing her pregnancy with Hallie here in the video and Melissa Rauch actually had a miscarriage during that season. She got pregnant again between seasons and that's why they wrote her pregnancy with Michael into the show.
The show wasn't on for that entire time. Summer hiatus, hello.
As far as #3, Leonard says that Sheldon has asthma, not allergies.
Amy’s mother was different person in the first video call with sheldon and amy , one time penny said that leonerd don’t snore but later he had to take an surgery for snoring
"But was their boss so scared of Berdinett that he was willing to overlook all this?"
Clearly you have never seen an episode. She is scarey
Thomas Zulli O cmon bloke, you spelled “scary” wrong. You Brits with the proper “english” pish posh.
@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin I thought the same thing.
@@JrPeople64 please don't associate all us Brits with such a demeanor.
@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin I hope you dont get that mad when people butcher your name.
@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin You must have been when making that account
For me, the most annoying inconsistency was Leonard's snoring. In early seasons, it was a recurring joke that Penny was the snorer while Leonard was a quiet sleeper (as Sheldon would describe as one of his qualities), and then all of a sudden in S8 Leonard is getting a septum surgery to address his snoring issues...
I'm surprised that the only plot hole, I had ever noticed on Big Bang, didn't make it on this list. I remember in the very beginning of the first season, Sheldon knocked on Penny's door with out his "3x knock and call" tick. But sometime much later in the series, we discovered that the reason Sheldon knocked and call the persons name three times every time, was because of something (I forget what though) that had happened long before the beginning of the series. I was really expecting that to be here.
As someone who has selective mutism: I have done the thing raj did. It was never on purpose and I always felt ashamed afterwards(I felt ashamed for not talking but also felt ashamed when I accidentally blurted out sonething to someone I usually never talked with), but I have definitely either not noticed someone in the room, or forgot they were there, or just mistaken a stranger to be someone I knew that I talked with.
i agree, also under the assumption that Sheldon has ASD, a 99% possibility, i also have ASD and will sometimes break agreements, i doubt sheldon had a cat allergy, he probably doesn't generally like cats, but emotional distress can do many things like for example forget we told someone something then telling that same person something that shows we lied
@@kayleas5328 what is ASD? 😅 I don't think I've ever heard or seen someone mention ASD before😅
@@alienmissy4836 Autism Spectrum Disorder. Personally, I think all of his behaviors are better accounted for by OCPD.
@@kayleas5328 I've known adults who had severe Selective Mutism as children, and still had traces of it as adults (albeit, unlike Raj, all took anti-anxiety medication). Most of them still didn't speak very often, and many pretty much only spoke when directly asked questions, but many would sometimes blurt out things in exactly the situation Raj does-- someone says something alarming and slightly threatening. Sure, it's a joke, but if you are the punchline, the alarming part may register before the "joke" part does.
But I think the plothole there is that no one reacted rather than the fact that he talked in front of penny.
He's allowed to break the the agreement he made it, also he was lying about the allegy as to further disallow leonard from aquiring a pet
U are right
Sheldon can't lie
There are pretty good antihistamines out there. Someone I know whose cat allergy could have put her in the hospital in the 1980s now takes a prescription allergy med, and actually owns two cats. So Sheldon could have had an allergy that was a big issue as a child, but which can be treated now. He may be willing to treat it when HE wants a cat-- not so much when LEONARD wants one. A bigger issue, I think, is not that Leonard says he has allergies, but that Leonard says he has asthma.
@@rivkahchaya thank you! I was like what asthma isn't an allergy!
she didn't even get it right about an "allergy" Leonard says that Sheldon has "asthma" in which he has no inhaler to cater to it, but at this point I'm just nit picking at the lies Sheldon's told to get his Heine out from a ditch.
Another plot hole: in the first season howard often explains that the marriage of his parents work out because of the amount of alcohol his father drinks. But later he tells us that his father left when he was a kid🤷♀️
he was 11 when he left, so obviously the alcohol intake was seen in Howards pre-teen years/ child years.
Isn’t Leonard’s bully also Sheldons dad?
Yes, he is george from Young Sheldon
Yes but the spinoff was not yet made
I don't think it is meant to be the same person its just the same actor and @yousuf seedat Sheldon's dad is seen in the episode with the past sheldon/football tape
Penny has nieces and a nephew too + Lenard siblings were never shown same as most of raj's siblings
@Andrew Smith Yes, but they gave us multiple episodes about Sheldon convincing his brother to attend his wedding -- and nothing at all about Leonard's siblings. I guess the writers weren't up to it. And that recent episode where Leonard and his mother worked out their differences was so contrived it was painful. Two great actors there, swimming as hard has they could to keep that final scene afloat.
@Andrew Smith We have no idea how Leonard feels about any of his siblings. The writers never really bothered. I recall his brother sending him a Christmas letter once. Which made me feel relieved. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been one single person in the world who loved Leonard. And that would be too sad to bear. Cold, disapproving mother. Ineffectual, self-involved father -- who picks up a woman at his son's rehearsal dinner? Abusive room-mate. Needy friends -- and was Leonard ever really friends with Raj, or was he the friend of a friend whose sister he shagged for a while? And Penny -- ashamed of him, and the most begrudging giver of affection in the world. Leonard is so lovable, and so remarkably unloved. I hope his child will love him.
@Andrew Smith Agreed. Now that you mention it it seems that Leonard had the saddest backstory where his family was concerned out of all of the characters. (Okay so Howard's mom was overbearing and his dad left but at least his mom was there for him, even if it was just a bit too much) Leonard's mom was clearly a narcissist who never gave her son any real love or praise
Sheldon has the sadder backstory if anything, his father went from the kind and supportive man who beat up a woman’s abusive partner to protect said woman’s daughter from him to a drunk slob who cheated on his wife. I swear when Young Sheldon gets to the point where George goes through that transition it’s gonna be heartbreaking
@@mrcritical6751 Wow..I never knew his father was a drunk who cheated on his mom. I guess I missed the back story (Of course I have not watched the last two seasons.
I cried my eyes out when Sheldon gave the speech at the Nobel's ceremony
Nobels'.................js
me too, i practically cried the entire episode
He was alright doing it as well, did'nt get nervous or drunk
if someone didnt cry they have no heart.
Did they mention Amy's mom played by two different actresses? Or did I miss that?
what a plot hole...
9:41 in this particular circumcstance where he is at his desk:
Sheldon has explained that he eats in his spot and works in his desk chair
Why did Bernadette start out as such a sweet and innocent character (literally shouting "I'm nice to EVERYONE!" into Raj's face when he fell in love with her), but then became one of the show's most obnoxious bullies in the later seasons? In the end she was so bitchy and mean, the other characters where literally afraid of her. It didn't even seem like she liked her own husband, let alone her friends. I hated what they did to her character.
The biggest change was Amy. She entered the show being a weirdo just like Sheldon, but suddenly she started acting normal like everyone else. I guess that change is thanks to her bestie Penny :P
@Lady Stog - I've theorized that it's the pressure of being the majority breadwinner plus Stewart living with them. That puts a lot of stress on a person.
She was living with 2 Howard and Stuart ( and often Raj) who didn't make much money and didn't do housework either. She was provider as well as homemaker so she was bound to be stressed.
@krishna murthy I get your point, and I agree that she was under a lot of pressure and deserved better, but being stressed and being a mean bitch who purposely hurts her friends are two different things 🤔
People laughed a lot when she did a Mrs. Wollowitz voice, so they kept doing it more and more until she morphed
It's possible that Lisa wasn't at Penny's wedding because (A) they had a falling out or (B) she was in prison. Given her penchant for shooting her husband while drunk, Option B is highly likely.
Maybe Lisa's parents were so ashamed that they didn't want to mention her name.
@@melissacooper4482 that would make sense as to why her Father just said that they're okay, but wouldn't say their names or anything ever
@@ThatBoiCade she is probably in prison
the rules don't apply to sheldon didn't you all get that hehe
In season 1 episode 13, Raj jokes about adding TV's Blossom to their physics bowl team, as she is apparently very smart and has a PhD in neuroscience. However, TV's Blossom is portrayed by actress Mayim Bialik, who we all know plays Amy later on in the show. Yet noone seems to recognize Mayim as Blossom.
And, in the episode where Amy and Sheldon are trying to find Halloween costumes of couples, they made a diagram with what they like, and Blossom is listed on Amy's side.
Well sheldon only drew up the roommate agreement to get his way with things. So he has no qualms on breaking it whenever it is convenient for him.
Kennechi Sy I agree
Actually, he does follow the roommate agreement, he was just in an emotional wreck when he got the cats.
I mean he does in one episode he says something like his brain enforces anything in a contract that he writes up and Amy said it’s was due to his OCD or something like that
Just like a real life lawyer ;)
Just to add because it always bothered me. In the episode where Sheldon is stuck on a physics problem and refuses to go to sleep Bernadette sends him to bed, when asked how she was able to do so by Leonard she replies something along the lines of ‘I’m good with kids, my mom ran an illegal daycare out of our basement’. In a later episode where Howard has to do a magic show for a kids birthday party and him and Bernadette are discussing whether or not to have kids she then says something about ‘being terrible with kids, all their sticky noses and whining’ I noticed it the first time when the episodes played back to back and I was so confused.
You actually missed one at 7:07. Leonard says that he's taken Sheldon's asthma into account, but as we all know it's Leonard who has asthma, not Sheldon. I think though that this and some others on this list are from earlier seasons where the characters are still being fleshed out.
Leonard is seen using an inhaler multiple times in the show. As for Sheldon, i think he only stated his "allergies" to prevent Leonard from requiring a pet. If he lived with Raj he may have had his own. Raj is the luckiest one since he has a dog, can live how he wants in his own home and doesn't need to take care of a grown man like Leonard does. Sheldon realizes in one episode how much he needs his friends and roommate only to disregard him all throughout the show. Sheldon is just a narcissistic prick half the time who thinks is better than everyone else.
He didn't say allergies, he said asthma.
you can have asthma to cats. I have it.
@@aka_sscarl3t405 asthma or allergy?
I stopped watching this show but I'll always agree with my Sheldon Cooper shirt "I cry because others are stupid, and that makes me sad."
@Ki Martin - Is that true? If it is, then that alleged quote IS stupid itself!
also ive noticed that theyve switched the age sheldon was in high school/college a couple times
Good one. I noticed that to.
The reason the show is called "The Big Bang Theory" is because each episode is wholly separate from every other episode and all reside in parallel universes.
Any resemblance to continuity is purely coincidental.
That is literally 98 percent of any american sitcom unless it states part 1 or part 2. This is why anime is better, it actually sticks with the storyline.
maybe sheldon was so upset about breaking up with amy in the first place that he tried to hurt him self by an allergic and have an companion for the lost
Season 1's being repeated in the UK, so I've recently seen one where Raj signed up for a trial of anxiety medication. He arrives and tells all present (including Penny) this, then his hand starts waving apparently of its own accord - a side effect he says. He's able to talk to everyone throughout the episode, but his hands do odd things if Penny's around. So reason 6 had a story for him talking.

Oh, I got one more, the biggest 'WTF?' in Big Bang Theory as far as I'm concerned - **Bernadette's entire personality overhaul!** She started as a quiet, sweet, very gentle woman. Very innocent as well in many respects and very soft spoken as well. But as their relationship progresses, Bernadette's entire personality begins to shift. By the time she meets Howard's mother in the hospital (she had food poisoning from the deli) Bernadette is incredibly loud and aggressive. From there, it only spirals until apparently, Bernadette is a, scary, ball-busting, no-nonsense woman. Not sure what the writers were thinking here, but that personality switch has always stood out to me.
She is 100% the worst character for this reason. She adds nothing to the show
@@resilienceofagypsy3998 No. She's the reason why Howard is not a jerk anymore. She's also the one that helped Raj in a lot of occasions. Her giving Penny a job, she added 2 babies to the show, she helped Amy during the break-up, and a lot more. She's just underrated because the story doesn't revolve around her.
@@37shshshsh nah shes annoying and dorsnt add anything. The kids are irrelevant as they're only in like one episode and play no part and howard is still a creep
@@resilienceofagypsy3998 I hate both her and Amy. Amy is my most hated character on the show.
@@sir_sack that's subjective, I despise Howard and bernadette i don't particularly like Amy but I prefer her over those two
I feel Sheldon believed the cats to be service animals for his anxiety and all that
Blaise That’s a good point.
It's a sitcom. what do you expect
KludgeBot what that supports to mean
We've come to see sitcoms as low-effort trash for some reason, but there have been plenty of decent, smart sitcoms. We just need to have better standards.
KludgeBot
more consistency
PERFECTION!!!!! ^_-

Raj is clearly turning his head to get Penny out of his line of sight when he speaks to Leonard in that scene.
Sheldon once mentioned that when he was 9 he skipped 4th grade and went straight to high school. But in one episode Sheldon says, "Not to brag, but I spent most of fifth grade with my head in a toilet." Plus, another time, Sheldon says that in fourth grade, Mrs. Wunch made him line monitor.
Raj's selective mutism was entirely in his mind and based on nervousness, which means that if he was distracted or extra comfortable, it could disappear. That's why alcohol worked. So it's not a plot hole, we just got to see a few moments where Raj forgot to emotionally tie himself up in knots.
Rebecca Maracle He spoke in front of Lesley Winkle (sorry if incorrect spelling) at the physics bowl. Probably feeling confident in their chances of winning.
@@michelleresistance Lesley is a nerd
Bernadette and Penny both stated multiple times that they didn't want kids. They fall pregnant and suddenly it's the greatest thing in the world.
I hate it when TV does that.
THANK YOU! I hated that so much.
Sometimes that happens in real life to, when you are experiencing it for yourself new feelings arise, also the show did make Bernadette kind of conflicted in a few episodes if I remember correctly
Actually Bernie does come around to it somewhat before she gets pregnant after Howie promises her that having kids isn't going to automatically mean she'll have to give up her career. They kind of reach of point of "Well, let's just live our life and if it happens it happens."
Actually, in season 8 (I think) Leonard asks if she wants kids and Penny says, "yeah, someday" but seems to completely change her mind later on.
My girlfriend is autistic and essentially a female Sheldon and we recently watched big bang from start to finish. If there's a plot hole. She pointed it out.
The spot doesn't really matter when he's at his computer or in agreement with the others to give it up. Yes, it's his spot, but if he's sitting across the room at his computer, it doesn't really matter that someone is in his spot.
Not true. Sheldon is about to leave in the Paint Ball episode. Penny is sitting there and he says it's his spot but not planning to sit there. Penny says that it represents him being at 0000.
The actual reason for these plot holes, is that this show's ep's were not decided a year in advance like 99% of other shows. They are written usually on a week before that ep is due to air and no real thought is put into the sequence of events so a few plot holes per season now persist, not that the show writers care for them..... they're frekking millionair's by now anyways(BOTH... cast AND writers).
Sheldon isn't a real person. Jim Parsons is his own person.
I read this and picture Jim Parsons on SNL singing "I'm not that guy." XD Now I'm gonna have to watch that again...
Bernadette was pregnant for 11 month's because she actually fell pregnant in April.
While watching it for the first time itself, I noticed the plot hole of Raj talking in front of Penny. And, the Sheldon's cat allergy contradiction too. And, Sheldon letting go of his spot. 😂
In season 1, both Missy and Sheldon's mom mentioned they had a dog, around the time Young Sheldon took place. However, in Young Sheldon, not only do they not have a dog, but Sheldon is afraid of dogs.
@Andrew Smith His mom said that he wanted to build a nuclear reactor (or something), and when men from the government came to his home and told him that he could buy fissionable material off the Internet, he built a deathray. His mom said it "pissed our dog off to no end." Something similar to that happened in season 1 of Young Sheldon.
Oh, well, Young Sheldon has almost nothing to do with the character in the Big Bang Theory. You may have noticed that the little boy in Young Sheldon looks like a young Chandler Bing, not a young Sheldon Cooper. And YS is set at least 15 years too early. Nothing about that show looks like 1989 or 1990 to me. And why does he dress like a child when he's an adult, when he apparently didn't dress like a child when he was one?
@Andrew Smith No, it's set further back in the past than it should be. It looks like 1974, not like 1989.
@Andrew Smith I know the family doesn't have a dog in YS. That's my point.
This isn't so much a plot hole as an inaccurate portrayal of the scientific community, but it is extremely unrealistic that Sheldon and Amy won a Nobel Prize only one year after making their discovery. I think it was a great way to end the show, but the finale should have been set 20 years in the future. Then we could have seen Halley, Neil Michael, and Penny and Leonard's baby grown up.
yess omg i 100% agree
My theory's that Sheldon unexpectedly wanting to leave the show left the writers with a bunch of story lines that they *wanted* to introduce over the next, say, 2 or 3 seasons--but they had to pick the ones they liked the best and cram them into the final season instead.
1:12 Leonard never said he was at comic-con during summer, he just mentions the year.
Using their logic the fact that Sheldon could go at super speed when he was in the flash costume was a HUUUUUGE PLOT HOLE!
How about Frank and Alicia; Sheldon’s secret friends?
The biggest plot hole was meemaw not coming to sheldon's wedding. Everyone missed that
That's not a plot hole!
I wish this show was still airing. Glad to have wonderful memories.
Y'all neglected to mention how Sheldon's obsessive three-knock knocking wasn't a "thing" from the very beginning of the series. He even knocked regularly in the very first episode.
Maybe his names Bob whyat???
Holy hell maybe I’ve just figured out the mystery of Penny’s surname😮😱
His first and middle name could be wyatt robert or robert wyatt, my grandad used to be known by either first or middle name depending on who it was
🧐🤨🥳😱🤯
Penny Whyat
Maybe he was named Wyatt, but his dad or grandpa was named Bob and a big influence, he said "just call me Bob." to everyone.
I heard they said her lastname was Barington in a Interview 😂🤷🏻♀️
A couple problems: The fact that Bernadette's boss was THAT scared of her WAS the reason penny got the job and it even said earlier in the scene that she had no qualifications which is why he couldn't hire her and she was about to walk out. At 4:52 you can see a red bull on the table. Howard's lack of courage has nothing to do with it, sure it is a big part of going to space but they needed him in space to work the toilet since he built it.
It's not Howard's lack of courage that would have kept him out of space. It's his heart. He has transient idiopathic arrhythmia, as he tells us many times in the early seasons. He would have died up there.
In one episode Sheldon insists he can't dance and in another we learn that he took lessons as a child and he is a very good dancer.
4:53
There is literally a beer can in front of him..
Looks like a sprite can
All of those things happened in Dr Strange's visions of the future in which Thanos wins. Since we Thanos lost in Endgame, those never happened. Checkmate!
You don't actually need a medical degree for a pharmaceutical sales position, just experience in sales. Also, there's MULTIPLE comic-cons in multiple cities just within the California area alone, and Leonard doesn't specify WHICH comic-con he got that sketch at (Anaheim, SF, LA...). Also, it's fairly obvious that the roommate agreement is just a cover for Sheldon to seem to maintain a measure of control; the truth is he's just looking for both friends and control, and the so-called agreement is just a psychological clutch he can fall back on if needed.
@Andrew Smith what do you call seven years waitressing?
@Andrew Smith and that's where the friend recommendation and really killing it in the interview comes in.
@Andrew Smith They are if they're good, the more they "sell" the high the total check, the higher the check, the higher the tip.+ the happier the management.
@Andrew Smith , all her references have PhD's. Also penny is a young, blond and beautiful women and that is a key part of being a sales rep and convincing most male doctors to use your products. Although she lacks a medical background, she has worked as a bartender, a waitress and an actress, surely she has an above average memory which is required for her job
@Andrew Smith Bernadette is one of them
I would like to believe Sheldon meant he couldn't afford rent on his own because he's putting so much away in retirement and savings. He's always been a very cautious person and who better to take care of his old self than his young self.
He literally uses his roommates and his friends to make them drive him to all his appointments, work, and take care of him. It's practically stated.
Another potential ‘plothole’ (although it’s more a mistake) is Sheldon’s opinion of brunch - in Season 4 Episode 6, Sheldon expresses a liking for brunch, but in Season 6 Episode 13, Amy says “Sheldon doesn’t believe in brunch”
I LOVED the cat episode; it's the best of so many of the characters, including Mary.
I'm sorry, I'm probably not the target audience for the Channel, but the idea behind Miss Mojo Channel is confusing and kinda pointless to me. What's the difference between this and WatchMojo?

In an early season Sheldon says: " there may be infinite amount of parellel universes and I can asure you in none of them do I ever dance"
and few more times they mention that they don't dance at all.
But in a later season sheldon dances and mentions that he used to dance when he was a kid
Maybe he just meant he didn't enjoy it.
Early in the series it is stated by Sheldon himself that Leonard doesn't snore, yet many seasons later Leonard wants to undergo nose surgery to remove his snoring and it is even said he's been snoring since ever.
You missed where Sheldon tries to sell the red laptop to the dry cleaner , when as we know he cannot get rid of anything & puts it into storage.
Also Sheldon didnt acknowledge that Leonards childhood bully was actually his dad in Young Sheldon .
Leonard grew up on the east coast, how is that possible?
@@emulatorretro because they used the same actor for two roles & hoped people wouldn't notice. With Amy's mum they used 2 different actresses.
@@maximusfattybum I thought her mum was Kathy Bates only?
@@emulatorretro in season 4 she was played by Annie O Donnell, and was recast with Kathy Bates when they expanded the part.
How did sheldon get all his stuff in that storage anyway? Amy had to drive him but is the first to know...
#2 sheldon won t drink coffee or energy drink. Yet drinks mountain dew.. He shows with the Pringle can he memorizes content. So he should know mountain dew is cafinated.
( the cat allergy thing was busted in a comic con interview, blaming sheldon to be over conserved with his own health)
I’m gonna guess number 1 is when Blossom is mentioned earlier on in the show
The clowder of cats are his service animals. 😂
Sheldon forgets things from the roommate agreement when it’s convenient for him
sheldon claimed that he couldnt squat that far but on the episode when they were fighting for the ring he squatted
I guess they decided to switch which character has asthma.
You missed one :
In one of the episodes Raj suggests that Sheldon shud learn Hindi if he wants a hobby and Sheldon responds with "Mujhe Hindi aati hai." (I know Hindi) to which Raj says sorry can u pls translate I don't actually know Hindi.
And later in another season Raj and Sheldon fight over whose the better Bollywood actress while watching a Bollywood movie together.
Not only did Sheldon adopt cats, but in a later episode (season 7-10 i'm not sure) he specificly states that he is getting a turtle with Amy. He says the turtle was going to stay at his apartment.
The few clips you showed of othet people in Sheldons spot can be explained. While they were practising for the quiz thing, he couod have insisted they sit in the same order they would on the panel giving Leonard a temporary pass. Same with Raj sitting there while Sheldon was doing work at his computer.
I agree
What would happen if use 💯% of our brain.
The big bang theory : you literally become Sheldon (an extraterrestrial being)🤣😂.
This comment is just for fun, please don't be get offended for Sheldon unless you're Sheldon !!!
The sad thing is all these plot holes could have been filled by the writers taking some time to do a goddamn wiki walk or Google search.
Oh, and another plot hole I noticed in TBBT is Penny's shock at Wyatt telling her he accidentally backed her pet pig over with a tractor even though an earlier episode (the one where Professor Proton died) had her saying the only time she ever lost someone close to her was when her pig died.
Sure, she could have gotten Moondance to replace that first pig but still.
