"Nothing gets the ladies hot like software testing analogies." Relatively speaking, Raj and Siri was pretty good too. I could take or leave Fun with Flags.

I actually liked the Raj/Siri stuff, especially Bernadette's creeped out reaction to it. Fun With Flags was a little repetitive, but Shamy's obviously terrible acting and their end scene were both adorable! The Leonard/Penny stuff was pretty good (especially the bug reports), and I liked that it seemed like a sequel to last week's episode. I kinda expected more though since last week's episode was the 100th ep. and pretty well done.

They blew a perfectly good chance to end it in the Summer Glau episode. Why can't Penny find a man ? A real man, not a 5'3" annoying nerd. If they start the Penny/Leonard lovefest again, then #&%$#$@ them ... I would rather see her date Raj ... or even Wil Wheaton.

They over play it SO incredibly badly, it's beating a dead joke with a club. And let's please choose which letter he can't say, is it L or R? Drives me mental.

Nice to see Kripkee back. I liked the Raj thing - but I've been complaining about them not progressing him for over a year now. It's time they grow him up.

I don't think it is going to hold up well on re-watch, though, unless you are a Leonard/Penny "shipper" which I most certainly am not. I think the cold open is the best I've seen in a while. Jim and Mayim were great at bad acting, although the whole 'fun with flags' concept seemed like something that should be an SNL sketch. It was pretty obvious that the writers didn't know what to do with Sheldon & Amy in this episode and this is the best they could come up with. But my favorite plot was Raj/Siri. The selective mutism has been overplayed but this particular storyline was good for some laughs. I particularly like this exchange between Howard & Bernadette as a result of the Raj/Siri interaction, since it sums up perfectly how we should feel about it: Bernadette: Who’s Siri? Is he dating somebody new? Howard: Yes, his phone. Bernadette: Oh. Is that cute or creepy? Howard: Uh-huh. Pathetic yet hilarious.

I saw it as a baby step towards being able to 'talk' to women. Every character on the show has grown on the show -- Raj's turn is coming (at least I hope so). I think Kripke makes the most out of his brief appearances. He is becoming the 'Newman' of the BBT. He isn't the most likable characater but is the best creepy guy around.

Also, I want to say, they are in bed so so much. Aren't they getting tired of each other yet? Not like she can't find another partner. He actually has some charm and has gotten Priya and the hot comic book chick before. But they fight so much. Their relationship is pretty weird.

According to JK Rowling that's pure chemistry (was totally a H/Hr shipper)

Seriously though, everyone I know expected Ron and Hermione to get together from like the second or third books. What made you think differently?

Well since they actually dated in real life I guess it's not far fetched for her to date him on the show,short and all.

Ron is a sidekick and I was always of the belief that someone as smart as Hermione deserved better than a sidekick. That I don't think a relationship can last when the only thing they have in common is a mutual friend.
