TV Review The Big Bang Theory The Spoiler Alert Segmentation

Tweet

Spoiler alerts (ironic given the episode title and theme). Season 6 – episode 15 Sheldon upsets Leonard by spitefully disclosing events in Harry Potter books Leonard hasn’t read yet. Leonard moves in with Penny who isn’t ready for such a life-changing event. This is made worse when Amy moves in with Sheldon in Leonard’s absence though Sheldon isn’t ready for her being there. This leads to a beautifully timed and scripted four way argument between the four characters in the corridor between their apartments, one of the show’s finest moments. The sub-plot is great too as Raj looks after the lonely, mostly unseen Mrs Walowitz, (actually glimpsed briefly darting past the camera, the only time she is fully seen in any of her appearances) and she virtually imprisons him, much to Howard & Bernadette’s amusement. This was recently aired as a classic Bernadette episode though she barely appears in it – it is really a classic Sheldon and Penny episode. Arthur Chappell
