I laughed a few times, I rolled my eyes a few times and I got annoyed a few times. Yup, another new episode of The Big Bang Theory!
Confession: even though I write for Geek Furious, I'm not a normal geek. I don't enjoy movies like Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, The Hunger Games or Avatar and I've never seen any of the Star Trek's and barely remember anything about any of the Star Wars films. So even though I know nothing whatsoever about Spock, I still got a kick out of Sheldon's dream sequences.
But that's essentially all I liked from "The Transporter Malfunction." I know I keep complaining about this show and harping on the fact that it's getting tired and lazy, but 10 minutes of gay jokes? Can we be more creative, please?
Heck, even if the jokes were funny, I don't want to spend half of the episode on Raj. He's better in small doses as a supplementary character. I can't remember the last good storyline involving his character. Can you?
I swear, 19 of the 22 minutes of the show was dedicated to Raj is gay jokes and Sheldon lying over and over again to Leonard and Penny. There's only so much a person can take.
NOTABLE QUOTABLES:
SHELDON: "Hot darn!"
LEONARD: "Once you open the box, it loses its value."
PENNY: "Yeah, Yeah -- my mom gave me the same lecture about my virginity. Gotta tell you, it was a lot more fun taking it out and playing with it."
RANDOM OBSERVATIONS:
--If someone is ever stupid enough to marry me, I demand there be a make-your-own sundae station at my wedding.
--Nosey O'Donnell. I got to start using that.
--Did Raj's father complain about being interrupted during the cricket semifinals? Those matches take like 10 days to finish. I think he can spare a few minutes.
THE SCORE: 57 out of 100
