Big Bang is back! This
is my review of the Season 9 premiere of The
Big Bang Theory.
This episode was a little confusing to me at times, only
because I did not watch all of Season 8. You just forget to tune in sometimes,
right? Despite that, I enjoyed the episode anyway. I mean, when it comes to this show, it’s pretty hard not to enjoy
it. The lack of nominations they got for the Emmys baffled me as well. Even
though TBBT is entering its 9th
season, the writers are still creating laugh-out-loud scripts for the cast.
This episode started out with Penny and Leonard in a
little chapel in Las Vegas. Yes, they’re getting married! Penny didn’t have an extravagant gown or anything due to this marriage
being a spur of the moment thing. Even though all seemed well and everyone
seemed to be in love, Sheldon and Amy called it quits. I was quite
saddened by this because I found their relationship endearing and fun to watch.
To make things worse, they showed Sheldon
pulling a wedding ring out of his drawer and not knowing what to do with it.
I felt bad for Amy
after the split because she was unaware of Penny
and Leonard’s situation. She was
upset to find that she was not even invited to the wedding. Penny tried to explain to her that it
wasn’t planned and that they just went for it. She also explained that they
could watch the wedding live via a livestream. This led Amy over to Howard and Bernadette’s house. With everyone
together, including Raj and Stewart, and Sheldon standing outside of the window, drama was bound to happen.
I thought this was a very funny scene due to all of the tension.
My favorite part of the episode was when the couple-to-be
were exchanging vows. In typical Leonard
fashion, his vows consisted of comparisons to science, including atoms, and
being very heartfelt and sincere. Penny
on the other hand, did not have any vows prepared. Improvising, she recited the
lyrics of You’ve Got a Friend in Me
from Toy Story. This part got a big
laugh out of me. I also laughed a lot when Leonard
was struggling when trying to carry Penny
bridal style into the Honeymoon Suite. Everyone back home didn’t even see their
final exchanges on the livestream due to fighting.
Sheldon’s mother, Mary, made a brief appearance in the
episode. I would’ve liked to see Dr. Hofstadter’s
reaction to the wedding. Overall, I really enjoyed this episode.
