The hair thing was pretty funny, but yeah the rest of the episode was pretty flat.

Does it really matter how they do it? Thought the cameo by Spock/Nimoy was great even though he was never actually there.

So was Christopher Lloyd playing Jim Ignatowski and they just couldn't legally call him that?

I was waiting for Lloyd's character to mention that he used to be a reverend!

"Who is this strange man in our apartment?"

"I don't know, but I do know his name IS NOT Jim."

The A story with Leonard & Sheldon was solid. Howard & Bernadette nonsense was utter trash.

/agree You could punt the back 4 (Howard, Bernadette, Raj and Stuart) and I'd be happy. Raj needs a plot stat.

I'm disappointed that Lloyd was a guest start on the show and there weren't Back to the Future references.

Also, if these means more pathetic Stuart then fuck that storyline. Ugh.

Stuart needs to die. He is fast becoming one of the most annoying and hated characters in TV

That, and Raj too for me.
I'm sick of all these gay references and his lame scenes... is he gay... is he not... just let him have his outing and a good storyline or sent him back to India

They need to find something for Raj to do.

Leonard and Sheldon are pretty much attached at the hip. Raj and Howard were the same way until Howard got married, so Raj has now been cut out of the dynamic. The producers don't seem interested in giving him a stable romantic relationship like the other three have, so he has nothing to do except creep in on Howad and Bernie's marriage.

It's now doubly creepy with Stuart doing it, too. Those two need to back the fuck off and let Howard and Bernie build heir life together.

Stuart needs to vanish. Raj may as well go back to India at this point.
Howard and Bernie can live their life in peace with their kid...

and the show can focus on the Amy x Sheldon and Penny x Leonard dynamic. Maybe bring in some new regulars to the show. But even then, this show has basically ran it's course. It's time imo.

I think Burt is being primed to take over the "lovable loser" slot in the lineup, as Raj has just become pointless. Or maybe he's the producer's threat when the non Sheldon or Leonard cast members ask for more money...

Reminds me of the Mary Tyler Moore spinoff Rhoda. On MTM she was the loveable loser. Once she got her own show they gave her a relationship and the character lost the comedy strength it previously had. Once they gave these guys really serious relationships the entire premise was broken. I understand the characters have to grow and can't stay that immature forever, but it's tough to keep the same vibe going when they've grown so much.

Kind of surprised they didn't get Lloyd to play himself. Coud,l have been an even better guest appearance.

Yes, send Raj back to India stat and lose Stuart in any way possible. Pretty good episode beyond those two losers.

I don't mind Stuart at all. But Raj they can ditch anytime and I'll be totally fine.

I always enjoyed the Stuart appearances in prior seasons. Even the short bit with the hot tub worked recently. His character only works in small doses.

Raj is completely superfluous now. Cut him and use the money to pay for another season or two.

I'm going to agree and disagree. I think they are all getting pretty superfluous now. I think this season should be it.

The funny thing is that the writers pretty much admitted to that this episode.
Other than being able to talk to women without alcohol, nothing has really changed for him in his professional or romantic life.

I really enjoyed that they pointed it out in the episode.

If there is another season the time has come for a send off of Raj. Send him back to India or have him transferred to another university. Anything that makes him go away short of a couple Skype scenes like we get with his parents.
