Big Bang Theory - The Opening Night Excitation

Of course the guys are losing their minds trying to buy tickets for the new Star Wars movie, and of course this episode aired the night before the movie premiered - Sheldon almost prayed for tickets until Howard yelled 'Got em!'

But the movie premiered on Amy's birthday! Oh no!! "Surprise! She's even older now! Who could have seen that coming?" That would make a good slogan for a cake.

Better than this one, anyway... 

Sheldon has another dream where Bob Newhart as his friend Arthur shows up - dressed in a Jedi robe. He convinces Sheldon to spend Amy's birthday actually with Amy, and so he calls her in the middle of the night to tell her. How considerate.

Apparently you can mess with Sheldon by having a different person say 'come in' than the one he names when he's knocking. (But couldn't he solve that by saying *Knock knock knock* "Penny and Bernadette")

Sheldon is afraid of sheep.

AND OH MY GOD. HIS SUGGESTION FOR A GIFT IS TO HAVE COITUS WITH AMY. HOLY TOLEDO!!

Hey! Wil Wheaton! Normally I'm excited to see him, but I kinda just want to get back to the other storyline... They've invited him to the premiere with them - but I'm kinda surprised, wouldn't sci-fi royalty like Wil Wheaton have tickets already?!

Professor Proton is disappointed by kids who refer to their private parts as 'junk'. Same, Arthur, same. I'm honestly surprised that Sheldon hadn't told his friends about his plans with Amy...

I wasn't expecting him to bust out Fez's dance, but at least he'd mention it casually...

OK, now I see why Wil wasn't invited to the premiere.. Everyone boos him for showing up in a Star Trek outfit. But seriously, sci-fi fans can't like both?

I love how giddy the studio audience gets whenever there's innuendo in a conversation between Sheldon and Amy hahaha - and here's a PSA for everyone out there, if Sheldon Cooper knows to ask for verbal consent, so should you!

Apparently Penny gave Sheldon bedroom tips - and he giggled? - Couldn't she have just made him read Cosmo? And now the show is drawing parallels between the guys, anticipating the movie, and Sheldon and Amy, anticipating their ... coitus. Very clever.

Sheldon enjoyed himself! Well that's surprising!
