    This was TBBT at its best. I like Kunal and Simon as actors, but an ep that didn't have their lives as the main story was awesome. I love that no matter how bright sheldon is, he still looses grasp on the simpler things in life.
    A solid episode from what appeared to be an extremely weak start!
    I hate priya.

    Loved this episode of TBBT and it's the best of the season and maybe the best episode they've done in a long time.
    I liked Alice but I've got to say that Leonard seemed to be a bit of a jerk with him trying to justify cheating on Priya, yes in the end he did the right thing but not after doing some bad stuff...no matter what your thoughts on Priya are she is his gf and I would've expected better. If he and Priya don't break up after her revealation then I would argue that it was only done in order to make Leonard seem more sympathic and less of a jerk.
    The Sheldon parts were so funny....Jim Parsons was excellent in this ep and his scream of terror were awesome however, the joke at the end almost killed me....did not see it coming and it's easily one of my fav TBBT moments if not the best.
    Also, excellent picture that caputres the episode perfectly!

    I also laughed out loud at this episode. The comic store owner being unable to talk to Alice made me also giggle. (He must have broken up with the girl friend he mentioned in season 4.)
    
    Leonard going to Penny for relationship advice was kind of sweet; his reasoning that all of his friends are too stupid to ask was true, but it also RANG true. Not one of them would have been able to give him good advice. And it could have been very awkward for Penny to give him that advice, although I don't recollect that Leonard is aware that she is sorry that she broke up with him. Raj knows, but I never saw him tell on her.
    
    That was a beautiful snake. But to scare an Indian with a pretty orange snake -- yes, he should have thought that one over a bit more. I liked seeing that those two desks are still in the office, too. Consistency.
    
    I was bemused by how Leonard set up the mail box to avoid Sheldon's trick; it must have gotten him earlier when he was alone, or he could not have add

    Agreed - this was the first time I laughed out loud at Big Bang in a while. Sheldon electrocuting himself was hysterical.

    I thought this was one of the funniest things I've seen on television in a LONG time. Rarely do I ever even chuckle out loud when watching television - the only times I've found myself actually laughing out loud continuously whilst watching television are during the comedy central roasts - and that too, only at the more intelligent, witty routines.
    
    That having been said - when Sheldon popped out of the couch at the end - I don't think I've laughed harder at anything I've seen on television in my entire life. That was absolutely epic. I think the way it tied in with Leonard's phone-call and the mood that had been set by that just prior greatly attributed to the humour and shock value of Sheldon's prank. I was in hysterics for a good two minutes after watching it - then I rewound and rewatched the bit and laughed again for another minute.
    
    I totally think this episode should be submitted for Emmy nomination.
    
    Kudos to the Big Bang Theory writers and, as per usual, to another epic
