But none of that genius helps them interact with people, especially women. All this begins to change when a free-spirited beauty named Penny moves in next door. Sheldon, Leonard's roommate, is quite content spending his nights playing Klingon Boggle with their socially dysfunctional friends, fellow CalTech scientists Wolowitz and Koothrappali. However, Leonard sees in Penny a whole new universe of possibilities... including love.
Sometimes, it's just hard to connect to other people for whatever reason and it leaves everyone feeling awkward. (Awkward seemed to be the theme of this week, but if you thought this was awkward, then...well, like I said, we'll get there.)
So thanks to some gentle nudging by Bernadette and her mother, Howard and Mike end up agreeing to go on a fishing trip, which leads to the revelation that Howard has no idea how to fish. Nor, apparently, do Raj and Leonard, thanks to the three of them having fathers who either weren't around or whose interests were decidedly not in spending time with their kids.
Fair enough, and I like that for once, the explanation of why these geeks don't know how to do traditionally less-geeky things has an in-character explanation, but I have to admit that I'm a bit tired of their interests being confined slowly to the nerd realm.
I'm as geeky as they come but I also have eaten my own freshly caught trout on more than one occasion. Geeky people can have non-geeky interests, too! Particularly in this day and age, when it's become sort of geek-chic to prepare for the "zombie apocalypse" thanks to the influx of zombie media in our pop culture.
But I digress. They don't know how to fish, so they turn to Penny. She tries to teach them, but it mostly just leads to gross-out gags about fish guts. I'm sort of creeped out by how much she seems to revel in cleaning the fish or hooking the worm.
All of it is for naught anyway, as Howard and Mike decide to go gambling instead, which is probably a better use of their time and is more likely to result in bonding, if memory serves. Being stuck on a tiny boat with someone you're not quite sure how to talk to is a surefire recipe for awkwardness.
Speaking of which — I really can't put off talking about this anymore, can I? Do me a favor and get your cringe ready now because you're going to be doing a lot of it in the next few paragraphs — Amy spends most of the episode sick and thanks to the Relationship Agreement, Sheldon has to take care of her.
Only then Sheldon finds out that she's been lying to him and suggests that she needs to be punished to prevent further incidents and since his father never spared the rod while he was growing up, Sheldon doesn't see a reason why he should now.
I love this show and think it's one of the best new shows on television. It expands upon the "boy meets girl" theme. The show features a bunch of ultra-geeky physicists who share an apartment. They are brilliant in the laboratory but totally inept outside of it.
In moves gorgeous girl Penny across the hall, and she starts showing them what "real life" is all about. I think everything about this show is first-rate, from the writing and performances to the final cut. I hope this one stays around for a while. It certainly has potential. It is worth it just to watch Kaley Cuoco in it. She acts as good as she looks in it.
