My mistake then…got to listen closer.

Bob Whohart implies a great deal of disrespect.  As if the performer wasn't worth your knowing, simply by your not knowing him. 

So, that you have no knowledge of an artist makes that artist unimportant?  That's a pretty slim argument you're making there.  Rest assured, most everyone else who saw the show knew exactly who the man was and what his contribution was to comedy in general.  Sorry you didn't get the joke, but the  fault lay with you…

Interestingly enough, also on that list would be Kaley Cuoco (the titular Teenage Daughter in John Ritter's, also on the list's, last sitcom which also featured Katey Segal who has four hit shows now, one of which with Ed O'neil who is on his second critically acclaimed ratings success).

If I heard correctly, Professor Proton's real name was Arthur Gently, does anyone think that was a Douglas Adams refernce by any chance? (Arthur Dent + Dirk Gently = Arthur Genlty), unless of course I heard the name wrong, Bob is only billed as Professor Proton.

I don't think she was dumb here, just for the first time intersted in science (such is the power of Professor Proton).  If we think about it, all she ever hears about with science from her friends is stuff that might as well be gibberish.  She has always found Leonard's applied physics demonstrations interesting, but…

Professor Proton can sit anywhere he likes.

Really, since Gino Nuetrino was licensed as a toy, one can imagine that there was some money to be made in the Professor Proton busienss.  The Real Mr. Wizard Don Herbert wound up licensing his show, to other science performers (one of my early acting jobs such as it were) who would travel the country as "Mr. Wizard's…

If it was trick potato it makes sense.  That's the thing, not having had her clear interest in science even piqued until now (sorry Leonard, perhaps you are the trophy) Penny is at a disadvantage compared to all us smart folks tut tuting at her lack of sophistication, much in the way we tut tut Sheldon's lack of…

You can't go wrong with Bob Newheart (generally speaking, his show Bob though enjoyable wasn't the hit his other two series were) and I think that holds up here.  This episode was clearly intended as a love letter, and in its own way, the weakness of Bob's voice through out the episode reminds us how much the writers…

No I get that, and as I said, perhaps in whole it might be better, I just didn't see much in the teaser provided that would make me run out to the story and watch it.   But what the heck, I can pull it up on Netflix and see if it is interesting on the whole.

Personally, based on the clip, I don't think this is particularly promising, not because I don't love a good satire of jingoism, but it just seems like it is going to lack any notion of character in favor of a fairly vacuous presentaion of the gags.  I'd have to see it to be sure, but I find that if you are going to…

Oh certainly, that is a fair argument, but at the same time, that there are many multiples of coincidence is disturbing, but that is the nature of coincidence.  We see the things that are the same, and ignore the things that aren't.  As an example, we could go back and look at Victorian Clara, and see her life, her…

you know those guys probably cost money, you can have fancy name actors, or you can have a lot of crazy sets and special effect, you can't have both.  I think that's written on the Door Way to the BBC.

What I think is best about Clara learnign the Doctors name, was how unphased she was by it.  She says, "oh, so that's who" as if she found out his name was Bob.  She has just a sort of that makes sense, not a "The universe has just lost all meaning because the Doctors real name is…" kind of reaction.  So that makes us…

The doctor specifically said, that they had crammed two days into the space of one, so clearly he was aware that there are some residual effects of the time line, he just hopes that doesn't include super secret memories that are supposed to be kept secret to keep us safe….because that always works.

What I always find intersting about the undoing of the events episoes (or really any story of this nature) is that invariably, something is carried forward by the persons experieincing them.  In essence Gregor remembers, even if he doesn't know why or what or how, what happened and why he suddenly doesn't want to be…

I think the fact that Sheldon has compulsions are fairly clear.  I've never noticed the hands thing (still have a low D TV) that others mentioned, but I think it would fit well into the character that he has a hand washing complexe (as Barney Fife would say) without explicitly saying it.

I wonder if that was ment as a dig at all of TBBT's critics out there who also (via the internet) get told that alot too.

Sheldon isn't the same person either (likewise thanks to Penny, she's the show's angel) and might be able to find someone he can tolerate to skype with if he wanted to as well.  They could really break up again and remain friends this time.  But regardless, we know that her sexual arousal from previous episodes dulls…
