    The show is in syndication now, with two back-to-back episodes each weeknight. They aren't shown in chronological sequence, though, so in at 7:00 Leonard and Penny are in a hot-and-heavy romantic relationship, while at 7:30 they're just getting to know one another. Maybe this is an illustration of a fractured space-time continuum.

    I really enjoy this show, but come next week I'll probably abandon this guilty
    pleasure in order to watch my other guilty pleasure--Major League Baseball!

    Ha, we probably get the same Fox channel since you live in upstate New York. Someone in charge of the programming schedule should really do something about that.

    It's all been said before-- Fun, and well-written.

    One of the makers also made Dharma and Greg... Chuck Lorre was his name. Him with Dottie Dartland. Another show I loved. Good times.

    I just started getting into the show. I'm such a sketch I can't figure out what show I was tied into previously at that time.

    Best thing about picking a show up later in it's years is that you can sit back and watch a couple episodes a day in syndication. I don't have to wait a week get my "fix"

    I'm luckily visiting the parents this weekend, who in their old age splurged for the cable tv super duper platinum package.... Which means OnDemand... Which means I can have my own mini-BigBangTheory marathon. Will definitely check out the return of the Gorn.

    Please tell me he is still a cheesy foam rubber suit and not a computerized character a la Jar Jar Binks.... If he was like Gollum I could be cool with it....

    Hawking was so great in the latest show, and Sheldon of course was a pretty maid.

    The thought of people enjoying this vacuous trash makes me consider suicide - but, as they say, judge not lest ye be judged. I am judged on a daily basis of course, hence that whole 'who let the circus freaks out of the caravan, weirdo?' stuff, but anyway. I do not enjoy this show.

    Oedipus and complex always go hand in hand, it seems like.

    Welcome to you both!

    Thank you for the welcome. I have many complexes - hence the pills.
