I was hoping for more when I read what it was about... like an explanation for why Howard's dad left or maybe a reunion (whether it was a happy one or not) between him and Howard. I was hoping for more laughs too. Oh well.

Really enjoyable episode, I liked the ending quite a bit. For everyone that has mentioned Penny's facial expressions, I thought she was great again when Sheldon was explaining the California law thing in the laundry room. Loved the Goonies thing with Sheldon too.

Sheldon finding Penny's battery operated chew toy was the best part.
Would it be wrong to assume that Bernie was the one who told the truth about the contents of the letter?

I'd prefer if BBT stuck to the lighter stuff but they didn't let it drag the whole episode down. The exchange in the laundry room was great and of course Sheldon's discovery at the end.
This season started kind of weak but things have really picked up recently.

The show's central theme has always been about how screwed up these people are thanks to their parents. Penny's dad wanted a son, Amy's mom was over protective, Bernie's mom and dad are racist and dysfunctional, Leonard's mom views him as the black sheep, Raj's mom and dad are overbearing, and Sheldon's mom is a religious fanatic and a bit smothering in her ways.
Howard's whole life has been mainly about his mother, due to his dad abandoning them, so I loved how this episode kind of focused on Howard's past and kind of gave insight in to why he's so distraught and so attached to his mom.
Also I always thought Howard was obnoxious, so this made me kind of sympathize for him greatly.
It's one of the best episodes of the series so far.

There have been many episodes where they've mentioned it in passing as a trait of Howard's life. He's mentioned it numerous times as well. He cites it as the reason he and his mom are so bonded in the episode where Bernie urges him to move out.

That's what they said... but the letter could've said ALL of that stuff.

First, Penny looked so hot on that outfit. I felt like a teenager getting excited looking at a piece of her bra.
And well, yeah, I almost cried in that scene where everyone revealed their part of the letter. They really delivered there. Other way it would have been a kind of bad episode.

I really liked this one. A nice mix of the group dynamic, along with some good moments for the actors while still being funny.

The fact that Sheldon didn't "correct" the group by telling them only one of them should reveal a true fact and Sheldon wanting to change his answer as in a competition to see who could come up with the best bit of made up information, leads me to believe only one of those people was telling the truth.
I would deduce that either Penny or Bernadette were telling the truth. Penny because perhapsthe group would not allow her to come up with her own bit fearing she wouldn't come up with something good, or Bernadette since she's Howard's wife.

He burned the letter so it's obvious he never really wants to know. This way he gets to pick the resolve.
I also might not have any idea of what I'm talking about.
