Considering the bad reputation that multi-cam shows have right now, it speaks more about the Big Bang Theory than anything else. While I definably think that Parks & Recreation got snubbed, I blame Girls-which to me is more of a drama than a comedy. As for Community, it was never going to get nominated for Best Comedy Series.
I'm not sure why you felt the need to point that out? Of course it happens in every sitcom and it's going to happen in every sitcom in the future. The Big Bang Theory has never meant to be a revolutionary show in plot-it's meant to just be a funny show. Frankly this season was way better than the season before it.
And Sheldon has opened up due to Amy. He's agreed to hold hands with her and she's slowly turning him into something dateable. And Amy is completely different than when she was first introduced-she was exactly like Sheldon, and she turned into her own character.
I think the title for The Dead in the House led people to believe its part horror. I'm actually surprised by the response to the film. It's my least favorite of my films this year.
Hmmm? Howard is a completely different character from season 1 due to his growth, Sheldon is slowly opening up, and I feel that Amy and Bernadette continue to elevate every episode their in.
It fails at setting up a good emotional core, but the movie does have a decent, albeit predictable, plot (with some enemies with surprising depth) and some entertaining scenes. It may not be up to the Pixar brand established up to this point, but it is nonetheless a good movie-albeit barely.
B-
I'm going to be be reading the first two books soon. I want the series to stay ahead of me, so it's plot twists can be surprising. I plan to read the books to get the background and world info that the series can't bring up.
