This episode was hilarious. I actually watched it twice. I like that the characters have evolved over the years. Penny sleeping with one of the friends was inevitable. It only makes since that it be Raj, because her sleeping with Howard would have made her character feel suicidal in the morning. heh!
Some of the shows this season haven't been my favorite, but the way they wrapped this season up was brilliant. It must be hard for writers to write in 3 new characters and make it believable and realistic. But they did it quite well. TBBT is a frackin good show!
P.S. I loved Berni's jab at Howard about his premature ejaculation.

And the answer to the question in the end of this review: I tried, and was disappointed that nothing is rolling on my shoulder blade :D. Plus to that, according to my knowledge (google images mainly) acromion process is near a shoulder joint, not somewhere near the spine... Sorry for double post and horrifying english :)

That was hilarious :D :D.
Firstly, Sheldon really surprised me by trying - without many success, but still - to laugh with other guys and appreciating Bernadette's success (which shouldn't be so remarkable from his point) so sincerely.
Secondly, seeing him so emotional because of physical pleasure was somehow shocking, awkward and creepy, but in a good way :D.
And finally, I never thought Sheldon-Raj interaction could be so funny :D (and surprisingly successful :O).

Lame. Aren't you getting tired of recycled storylines? I am. Lorre and company are going to have to get some new blood in the writer's stable if they are going to keep the intelligent people watching.

Let's see . . . yet again, TPTB have gone for the boring, predictable, non-funny, NON-WORKING thing of 'Penny wuvs Leonard, Leonard lusts after Penny.' Even after the epic fail that was their 'relationship' in the third season, BP and his minions have yet to learn. Leonard and Penny DO. NOT. WORK. They have no chemistry as characters, Leonard turned into the world's second-biggest douche after they started sleeping together, and Sheldon paid the price for it re: characterization (Howard and Raj did too, just not as much -- luckily). And where is it written that there must be a romantic pairing in a TV show? Why can't the quartet plus 3 (Penny, Bernadette, Amy) just ... be friends, with the occasional romantic interlude on the side? You know, like the first 2 seasons when the show was funny on its own merits instead of who was sleeping with who? God, I miss those days.

Awful ending. When Penny and Raj were drinking together it was to predictable.

Penny and Raj sleeping together was a huge setback for Penny and Leonard's "relationship". I was really dispointed. Not because it was a betrayal (it wasn't), but it's going to make things too awkward between the three of them.

I agree... Holy Crap on a Cracker!!! How could they pair Penny and Raj?!? In Raj's defense, Leonard slept with his sister. So the bro code is officially broken between them...
Poor Shelly, both room mates of his has had coitus with Penny... I hope that this season Raj gets over his fear of speaking to women... I mean what growth has he had over the last four years?

I loved it. My son was upset that he missed it.However, I don't appreciate the comment about Penny just being a waitress, apparently whoever wrote that has never been a server.

I hope they keep Raj and Penny together for a while. Leonard and Penny just doesn't work and the show will just go down hill if they get back together. I hope Priya stays, she's the best of the females. Howard has got a lot of thinking to do, but I hope he doesn't burn Bernadette because of his pride. Sheldon actually had some growth this episode. It was the first time he was laughing with and at the same time as the group.

Not totally convinced that Priya and Len are breaking up, possibly they wont break up so soon and will do once priya sees that len is upset with penny for sleeping with raj. poor guys! sheldon and raj - hilarious. howard and bernadette ehh not really my cup of tea, id rather see her with raj.
Season Finale......holy crap on a cracker!! So much crammed into 21 minutes! Where to begin: First of all, to the ending.....Raj & Penny as a couple, uh-uh, won't believe it, and neither does Penny. (Glad to hear that she regrets dumping Leonard!!) The way she blasted out of there in total denial? That double OH GOD! when she realized what she'd done? Oh, that was some serious regret and shame there. (at least, I'm hoping it was.) I think that after Priya goes back to India, Leonard's still going to keep Raj's place for a bit, or get his own, because he's definitely not going to want to have to deal with any of the 3 of them. (ie: Everyone but Wolowitz.) I even Tweeted BILL PRADY about where the holy hucking fell they're going to go with the show after tonight's episode. We know Len & Priya are breaking up. (THANK GOD!) As for Leonard & Penny.....guess who gets to be chasing after whom now?! And I hope Leonard strings HER along a GOOD bit. I mean, if you were Leonard, what

for some reason when I just knew something was going to happen between raj and penny when they were drinking. I dont really care what happens between these 2 because i love this show for its hilariousness. cant wait for SEASON 5!!!
i dont know how my life will be in the summer without TBBT!! I'll miss SHELDON the most! :[
I started watching this show when I bought the DVDs for Season 1-3 last summer! I guess I'll watch them all over again, along with BONES :)
@Critics: please keep us updated over the summer with news about season 5 or anything related to TBBT :D
Leonard: Sometimes change is good. You were worried about Zachary Quinto being the new Spock, but you ended up liking him. Sheldon: Leonard, please, every ti...
