Can we talk about this Leonard Owning being a nerd? Like, YES you are the king of nerds! Not some sad “no girl likes me because I’m a nerd” or “I’m a nerd so I’m better than everyone” just: “hell yes I’m a nerd and I’m funny and sweet”
The interesting thing is that in real life Kaley Cuoco and Johnny Galecki dated in real life for several years which explains a great deal the onscreen chemistry between Penny and Leonard.
This is the imaginary one but the actual one went great as they both agree about it in the Beta Test Initiation. They didn't show us a lot of stuff, like Raj catching the bouquet in their wedding 😂 He mentions it to Stuart in one of the later episodes
Well, he was banging (no pun) Sara Gilbert as Darlene Conner on the Roseanne show and as the actress off set. Then... He was banging Penny on TBBT and Kali off set...in front of Leslie Winkle on set and Sara off set.
because that is the whole point of the show - leonard and penny were the end time couple on the show from day one - how can any one watch the show and know this -
Both shouldve gone for other people become more open to other stuff (penny trying to do math in her own time lenny trying to work out or do sports) and have lenny take a chill pill let thing flow
Well sure but: 1. There's not much humor in that. 2. In real life, all kind of people end up together that, on the surface at least, should not. 3. But nerds ending up with very attractive women isn't that uncommon, really. Money and stability, which most nerds have, and all the nerds on this show do, is a powerful aphrodisiac once you graduate from high school. I have an uncle whose story was a lot like Leonard's. He waited on this special, very pretty girl all through college. They dated off and on, she moved on several times. He waited her out. They were married at least 50 years and, like Leonard and many nerds in real life, he made an income to die for, was essentially never laid off. They had a hellofva life and she certainly never looked back.
@@curious968 waiting for a women who gets ran t hrough then settles on someone just for their financial stability is infuriating. that's like buying a 2002 civic with 300,000 miles and paying sticker price.

@@ThLivingHam-g7x Virginity has long past its sell-by date in this society, at least with grown ups. Men who want to get married these days, and most of us marry late, are going to have to accept that the woman they choose has a history. The number of 27 year old virgins is vanishingly small. And yes, a lot of people _do_ settle. It's just the way the world works. Women who wait until 35 or later to marry discover that they struggle to have kids if they have any at all. The rest know better and pop out a kid or two in their early 30s if they want one. That imperative does, in fact, have women settling, as (in Pride and Prejudice for instance) Charlotte Lucas does. At 27. I reject your underlying premise in the BBT that Penny was "settling". It is certainly true that Penny tried on several men for size. But she always knew that Leonard was going to want marriage. It was the cited factor behind their first and biggest breakup. More than once, in fact. Penny wasn't "settling" with Leonard. She was getting over her own hang ups with the idea of settling down at all. With anyone. On their very first date, about Schrodinger's Cat, she found out "the cat was alive" when she kissed him. She even admitted later on that breaking up was a mistake. That's not settling -- there was always something there -- it was the backbone of the whole show, in fact. No matter who they were momentarily dating.
@@curious968 my point is she sees Leonard as the safe option, the stereotypical beta provider. boring but will always kiss her ass and she can run all over him and he will always compromise.
@@ThLivingHam-g7x Except there are clearly episodes where that isn't true.

She also, in later years, actually gets turned on when Leonard stops compromising quite so much. I would say she is of two minds about it. Most days, she's dominant, but it doesn't take much to turn the tables, actually. Also, despite the bravado you cite (which is a real dynamic in the series -- you're not wrong about that) it is _also_ very clear from very early on that her fear of commitment is a major driver for her and any man.

If she had, she'd have married that guy. But she never even dated one -- just players, alphas or not. She didn't want to _marry_ any of them. They really weren't her type. It's twelve seasons.

It would have been a LOT easier for Leonard to talk about what he does with Penny if he were an aerospace engineer. Rockets and spaceships make ordinary people go WOW! and HOLY SHIT! It's a lot more relatable to them than quarks and leptons. Howard should have milked that a lot more. All Sheldon does is write on a whiteboard all day. Loser.
@@halyketarrant to be fair up until the last bit, the science bit was accurate. The Nobel Prize thing while good on fiction just don't work that way. Of course it's hard to make realistic new noble prize winner when you don't even know which research paper actually warrant one. Not even Stephen Hawking had one despite his paper were definitely brilliant.
that is the whole point - if they got together right away it takes away from the drama and comedy - the whole will they or wont they drama is the enjoyable part of the show to me - i love that tension in a show - you sound like a boring person so i understand why you do not like this kind of drama - you have no enjoyment in life you take every thing too seriously
To me, having seen it in real life, it’s sort of fascinating. A friend of mine was *crazy* about his female roommate. She was smart, pretty, great personality. She gave him the “I don’t want to ruin our friendship” speech. Because they shared a wall, the poor guy listened as she brought home over 50 guys in the year they lived together, and even she didn’t have a guy would crawl into his bed “just to cuddle.” Sleeping with him was a flat no. It was like her only criteria was “not Mike.” So strange.
@@epbrown01 she friendzone him. no amount of him "waiting it out" or trying to convince her to date him will work... until she gets older and cant' pull the type of guys she is used to getting. now she gets desperate as she knows her reproductive stock is falling, as women's fertility drops every year. then she will out of the blue message him or friend him on FB or soemthing, as if he was waiting for her like a puppy. if he has any dignity he will not interact
@@epbrown01 The reality is that no sane person would date the person they live with 24/7. Christ imagine that break-up and then not even being comfortable in your own home. Then you are literally apartment hunting. That is the epitome of "you dont sh!t where you eat".
Leonard! The King of Nerds! Awesome!
It’s good to see Leonard lean into his nerdiness and embrace it, rather than just hide it away to look cooler for Penny

The green dress Penny tried on before would've had Leonard on his knees pinning for her back. But the purple dress she has on now is also good.
“Attempt” is a huge overstatement
Penny looks stunning here! ❤
Things were going well until Leonard asked “are we gonna get back together”
This one didn't really happen though. The one that happened was the one spoken about in the Beta Test and they both agreed it went great
Captain Obvious arrived.
yeah, looked like he was well on his way to the indoor Olympics until that line
