Yep, loved it. Not liking Penny's hair though.

TheFirstOfHerName · 23/10/2014 21:49

Yes, it's going to take me a while to get used to her hair (although possibly not as long as it will take Sheldon to get used to it).

So happy there's a new series as watched the others too many times!

Floundering · 23/10/2014 21:50

I LOVED her hair, really suits her, she looks vair sexy! Grin

Scarletohello · 23/10/2014 21:51

I think her hair suits her. But she's so pretty she could suit any hairstyle tbh.

EatDereksCorpse · 23/10/2014 21:51

I didn't know it was back! X

EatDereksCorpse · 23/10/2014 21:52

Oh lord. I am ashamed, I didnt mean the x.

I'm texting and MNing.

I take it back

MorelliOrRanger · 23/10/2014 21:52

I watched it, I love this show so much.

Thought Penny's hair looked lovely.

ladygracie · 23/10/2014 21:53

I loved it. Me & ds giggled for ages after "Shotgun!"

Showy · 23/10/2014 21:54

I've already seen the first few of series 8. It's really good. Back on form imo.

GlacindaTheTroll · 23/10/2014 21:54

On one level, the hair is lovely, but it's not Penny IYSWIM. There have been an awful lots of changes for her over the previous series.

I'm not sure how it will work now TBBT in to a fuller story-telling mode (in contrast to the early series being about ups and downs of a group with no particular plot, and changes/new characters arriving slowly).

JuniperTisane · 23/10/2014 21:55

I really didn't like her hair.

Nancy66 · 24/10/2014 13:40

I love the show but I think it's running out of steam now. It's not awful but it's not as sharp as it used to be. Probably because the actors are now too old to be playing the parts they are

don't like Penny/Kaley's hair. She definitely looks better with longer hair.

hattymattie · 24/10/2014 13:49

I used to love this show but now I think it's contrived and has lost its early innocence and charm. I abandoned series 7 and the opening of series 8 last night did not fill me with hope. They do not merit their million dollar salaries, after all they are only as good as their scripts; which started going off when Howard went into space.

citruslemon · 26/10/2014 11:03

I was relieved when Sheldon "left" at the end of the series. As much as I love him, I wish that the others would get more screen time cos sometimes it seems like the "Sheldon Show". At the moment Leonard, Howard and Raj all look so bored!

Spooklingbrook · 26/10/2014 11:10

Everything Nancy said.

Plus AFF deserves so much better.

Ellenora5 · 28/10/2014 00:15

I was watching re runs earlier of the older series and I couldn't stop laughing, when I watched the first of the new one on thursday I didn't laugh much at all, but I'm hoping it will get better as the series goes on, the best episode of the last series was the scavenger hunt one Grin

minkymuskyslyoldstoaty · 28/10/2014 00:20

agree. i didn't laugh much.
it was a bit flat especially for a comeback episode.

deadwitchproject · 28/10/2014 08:20

I agree with pp, watching the reruns of old series cracks me up. This new season I've barely laughed.

weeredcar · 28/10/2014 08:27

I'm getting a bit fed up of TBBT because of Sheldon - I agree with citruslemon.

I will still keep watching though - for now as do find some bits funny.

I hope it improves.....

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2014 08:50

Just got round to wat hing it on sundayI loved it stuie and deb deb Grin scary bernadette makes me howl it shouldn't just be about sheldon imo. Love pennys hair it is really nice.

groovylucy · 28/10/2014 09:53

I don't like the way they put Sheldon down, it doesn't seem to work and be as funny as it used to be

desperatehousewife21 · 28/10/2014 12:37

I loved the rel between Sheldon and Amy and couldn't wait for them to properly get together and LOVED their 'kiss' scene on the train but I wish they'd then start getting more into it but it never really went anywhere.

I still love it though but can't see where they can keep going with the storylines. bit like friends I suppose they have to grow up and become proper adults and then it just gets samey.

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2014 12:44

Yes it is starting to get samey I agree.

Cherrypi · 28/10/2014 12:47

They need to add babies. Sheldon plus a baby would be hilarious.
