    Sheldon looks way too normal in that banner.

    Loved the little camo by Sheen and while not as good as last week, still a good episode. I am so glad I have a found a replacement comedy for the soon to end Scrubs.

    I had to give this one an average. Now don't get me wrong. It was funny. But the story, and Raj going a little crazy, was kind of boring.

    As for the funny, I especially liked the office scene where they were making fun of Howard's "lesser" intelligence. I also enjoy seeing Raj's parents. They are really innocently vicious.

    Leonard: Great so all we need now is a friend who shares our love of technology, knows lots of girls and has a house on the beach. Our new friend is Iron Man.

    Wolowitz: We're here to see Kuthrapali not kill Batman.


    Loved the Dr., Dr., Dr. exchange and then...Mr.Wolowitz by Gabelhowser.

    Thought the Charlie Sheen cameo was well played.

    No Leslie this week. :( Love her as a foil for Sheldon.

    I thought it was a really good episode and I've yet have a show let me down. Its my second favorite after The Office.

    I really like this show. A very funny moment was when the Dean character asks the boys what the purpose of this school/department was. After a long pause Sheldon's (? not familiar with each of the characters names yet) answer, "Science???," was determined to be wrong :lol: The real purpose was.. money lol ("I was going to say that!" :lol::lol:)

    Generally it wasn't the best episode, although still excellent.
    I laughed so hard when Sheldon... well, I can't bring myself to say "smiled".
    I nearly wet myself when he put on his Joker face.

    Yet another example of why the DVR rawks my world. ;)

    Chuck Lorre Productions, #221

    We have once again arrived at a moment in history where the truth can be defined as "that which you can make other people believe." The methodology for creating that belief is repetition. Say something enough times and it becomes, for millions of people, the truth. I am endowed like a stallion. This is why control of the media equals control of the populace. I am endowed like a stallion. And also why a state run television news channel is so very dangerous. I am endowed like a stallion. Now there are those who would argue this has already happened and that a certain cable news channel is actually a covert extension of our government. I am endowed like a stallion. That fact that the channel is run by a high-ranking party official, an anchor person from the channel became a White House spokesman, and another top-ranking party official became an on-air news commentator is often used to make this argument. I am endowed like a stallion. Of course, this fact would be entirely inconsequential if the oft-repeated falsehoods they attempt to imbed into the Zeitgeist were simply amusing, or, at worst, inane. I am endowed like a stallion. But, unfortunately, that is not the case. I am endowed like a stallion. The heavy repetition of lies and smears for political gain are by no means inconsequential. I am endowed like a stallion. Which is why each and every one of us must use whatever resources we have at our disposal to disseminate the actual truth. I am endowed like a pony.

    Too bad Chuck subscribes to that theory. Yet I'm sure he's fine with other newscasters running off and joining the Obama campaign. They were never bias, right. :rolleyes:

    If Fox was an extension of the branch of government he claims, why didn't they prop Clinton up? Oh, wait that was CNN, right? I guess the executive branch chooses its mouthpiece eachtime for each administration. :rolleyes:

    So MSNBC is what...fair. :lol: You wack jobs have to be consistent.

    Those who believe this type bullshit only show their own cowardice, fears, bias and frankly willingness to be at least marginally stupid if thats not their default position anyway.

    I get the humor "I am endowed like a stallion".
    The rest is a rant that I chose to counter rant.

    Still love the show.

    Yes, but Lorre only flashes it on the screen for two seconds. ;)

    Also love the show.
