Finally! At least it's back up over 8 million again. It was really weird to me why the show kept decreasing so much the last weeks. But, last night's episode was really good, in my opinion. I think it's peculiar that this episode dealt in a way with Penny and Leonard's relationship, and ratings were up. They should really get that storyline going again . . .

I agree. I really like the Penny/Leonard relationship part of the show. Unfortunately, it will not be taking precedence next week again. It is going to be about Sheldon's sister, and the guys lust after her.

Seriously, this show seems to be all about Sheldon all the time. Almost every episode is centered around him. I'd love to see a story about Penny . . . we haven't gotten many of those at all.

I agree, too much Sheldon lately. I would like to see more Leonard and Penny, and maybe even Raj and Howard, too.

The final ratings are in (see above in first post), and it was really good news. The show stayed over 8 million viewers, and picked up .1 in the 18-49 demo for a 3.1. Good ratings week. Let's hope it keeps up.

i agree i would like to see more of leonard and penny .sheldon is funny but if the start using him too much then the things we find funny about him in limited doses will start getting on our nerves

I just hope Chuck Lorre doesn't end the season with a cliffhanger, lol, not after this year's writer's strike! There has only been one episode beside any revolving around Sheldon since the show's return that aired last night. I'd love another Leonard and Penny story in the next few final episodes of the season and definately another Wolowitz story like in the Dumpling Paradox.

Only Three new Episodes remain this season

Jim is the funniest on the show, but Id like to see a Penny centered storyline

Nice to see the show doing well

I actually think the ratings are up because of Sheldon. He's hilarious... and a little too much like a few people I know!
