Great laughs this episode. Thanksgiving sitcoms always seem to work.

I was hoping that drunk Sheldon would make a grab or something for Amy. A smack on the ass should hold her for a while.

Poor Zack all alone on Thanksgiving. I'm glad to see that he wasn't a dumb jock cliche and a dick, but was cracking jokes about the situation.

Zack is comedy gold and needs to guest more often.

Biggest laugh of the night: the look on Amy's face after Sheldon spanked her. I swear, Mayim Bialik is the only one in the cast who can steal a scene from Jim Parsons.

Drunk Sheldon was great but the highlight for me was Bernadette and the marshmallows. Just adorable.

My girlfriend (who watches stuff like Dance Moms, the Kardashians shows, and Teen Mom) thinks BBT is lowbrow. She kept throwing me crazy looks as I laughed out loud to more than a few of the gags in this episode. This was one of my favorites.

Much better than last time we saw drunk Sheldon when he visited Wil Wheaton.

Funniest episode in a while. Mainly because they wrote Sheldon as quirky and not an asshole.

Yeah, this time Sheldon was sort of fun to be around. Loved it when he said "She's so small" when Bernadette was yelling at him and her father.

He was kind of being a raging asshole at the beginning when he was saying he was a slave. Amy puts up with so much of his shit, she should tell him to put out or get lost, she has nothing worth staying in the relationship for. And their dynamic is good, the writers need to do something to bring them tighter properly.

This.

Sheldon killed it, and this scene had me dying.

The writing of the show is not consistent but they have great actors, and when the writing is at their level, they just deliver.
