The Big Bang Theory season 7 recap: ‘The Status Quo Combustion’
While everyone is happy that the longtime on again, off again couple are finally planning to tie the knot, Sheldon will prove to be a difficult sell.
Leonard and Penny will need to work out future plans for living together, where they’ll live, and how to take care of Sheldon’s needs that Leonard’s been doing for years.
Perhaps this will be a reason for Sheldon to start depending on Amy a bit more, and maybe the couple the gang likes to call “Shamie” will even take the next step in their relationship by moving in together.
We can’t wait to see how Sheldon reacts to Penny and Leonard’s engagement news on tonight’s all new episode of The Big Bang Theory.
