    Great props to the Writers of the show, they effectively showed us WHY Leonard puts up with Sheldon's Crap without actually spelling it out for us.

      Makes me feel bad for Leonard. His mother isn't just like Sheldon, she's downright pure evil and abusive. No wonder her husband cheated on her.

    8:13 - Fun fact, that part about Penny being too perky is an inside joke: TBBT had a pilot episode made long before the one that aired as the first episode of this series, but many of the characters where different (Some non-existent) from that version and the character of Penny/the next door girl was much darker and more toxic than the Penny charcater it became. Turns out, Kaley Cuoco (Our current Penny) did audition for that role originally but lost it to another actress precisely because she was deemed too perky and nice for it. Fortunately for us, the failure of that original pilot sent Lorre and Prady back to the drawing board and they lightened up the role of Penny and Kaley easily got the role the second time around.

      Another interesting fact is that Sheldon originally had perverted tendencies (which somehow made it into the pilot episode with Leonard calling Sheldon a "semi-pro" at masturbating), but the producers took his perverted side and used them to create Howard.

    As much as my bby sheldon envys leonard having his mother and complains about his own mother. I doubt Sheldon would be better off with Leonard's mom. Simply because Sheldon adores his mother and how she babys him and made him her priority growing up. Sheldon needs the mom he has and would be lost without his soft kitty song and being taken care of when hes sick. Most of the things Lenoard and the guys do for Sheldon is what his mother did before he left home im sure.

    now you know the source of leonard's traumas, beverly never loved him as a son but as a pet project for her psychology experiments and she always belittled him for not being as successful as his siblings in her mind
    she's like a midaged version of sheldon, maybe that's the reason leonard can barely tolerate living with him

    Hi. I really like your reactions. My best friend Diana told me that she wished for years that her mom would give her a hug or say I love you. She accepted that it would never happen when she was twelve. Diana’s parents are divorced. Her dad is a very easygoing and warm man. Diana grew up living with her mom.

    Surprised you weren't aware of stereotype of grown Jewish man living with mom. Some, not all (hence stereotype) Jewish mothers are often overbearing and super protective....like Howard's mom.
    It's not a healthy relationship and Howard will eventually admit that fact.

    She might be insensitive but she's a pro nonetheless. I think she's pretty cool just cause she's like Sheldon except more composed and actually right most of the time. It's like I want to dislike her but most of the time I find myself "well, you're not entirely wrong so fair enough". She hits with a glove except it's a medieval gauntlet

    This is one of my favorite shows, but I can barely tolerate some of the episodes with Leonard's Mom. This one isn't too bad, but wow, a couple further on got really painful to watch. My Mom was more like Sheldon's, though ironically, my Dad was probably more like Leonard's. You'll meet him down the road quite a ways.
