"Why do jokes about being Howard not being a doctor get funnier every time? There’s something about watching him get emasculated that creates so much joy, and the story with him becoming Dr. Bernadette’s trophy husband is the kind of B-plot that I can get behind."
Really? REALLY? Do you hate this character, or are you…
