For those of you who were disappointed by this series, how Penny was never a well developed character, and how it ended, let me recommend you this:
.
What could have been, by son-goku5.
.
WAY BETTER than the actual show. It takes place THROUGHOUT the show, but has real and better character development for Penny. It's mostly from Penny's POV, and it also gives her more depth by showing/including her family from Nebraska as well as her family. It definitely made me feel better about how disappointing the last five seasons were. The show should have just ended with Leonard and Penny getting married. Also this story puts Penny in moments where she wasn't. (Vegas and Camping Trip where the guys were Tripping while Camping; she gets high too. Also, there's a huge twist that makes the show honestly look dumb in romantic story telling. There's also more Penny vs Sheldon in it, to the point that Sheldon messes with her job and she messes with his schedule. Penny also doesn't become unlikable in it, and remains her before she got married self to the end. Her fate in this story is also a lot better. And Leonard's proposal is WAY better in it. They also show Leonard interacting with her family more often (they also show him asking for her parents blessing, which is a very well written moment) and he even tells Penny he's jealous of her for having nice parents. Leonard also gets REAL character development in this story too. He grows up and acts less nerdy but still remains a nerd (for example he missed half a day of Comic Con to take care of Penny when she gets a headache. That's what I call maturity. And when Raj uses the whip sound, to make fun of him for taking care of her, Penny gets all mad for them making fun of Leonard and she even mentions his problem with Emily and the Iron Maiden. When all he's doing is something thoughtful. What's best about this story is that while they do act like their sitcom selves, Leonard and Penny develop more realistically like REAL PEOPLE. READ IT! Also the author is German, and I think he's a physicist, because he writes science dialogue that's offscreen. Penny also comes to hate Beverley a lot. She also stands up for him when someone flirts with her and denigrates him at the same time, because she knows he never was able to do it his whole life. Its really beautiful. At one point she even calls him in her mind, her soulmate.
Penny and Leonard plan a REAL wedding, and they exchange actual beautiful vows, and makes it clear she wants to have a genuinely happy life with him because he at one point in the story says that life will go by and all that a person will have is a regret of not doing something. Leonard is a little philosopher in this story. He even tells Penny hes thinking about changing his name to Leonardo, cause it get rid of the word nerd in his name, but ultimately doesntt.
Penny is actually really smart in season seven and eight; she comes up with a way to trick Sheldon into giving them the apartment. You see the author writes a reason why Penny is uncomfortable with Leonard moving in with her. It is because of her asshole ex who cheated on her before she met Leonard. Penny thinks that her and Leonard also being neighbors is convenient and practical. So when Sheldon gets hospitalized in season four for weeks, Leonard in a very Chandler Bing fashion asks Penny to move in (in this story they dont break up like in season three, and their relationship starts off WAY differently) with him as a trial. Hes smart and tells Penny he knows the real reason. When they get engaged she tells Leonard they cant live in her apartment, so its either A trick Sheldon into moving out or B, find a new place, and make it our own. Sheldon is more intolerable and unbearable. When Leonard does move out, they basically show no real sympathy. Penny even tells Amy that its HER job to prepare Sheldon for when they get married since shes his girlfriend by will. Excerpt:
Amy waved it off and looked at her. Are you determined to live with Leonard after you're married?
Of course. Penny scrunched her face in confusion. He'll be my husband, why would I not?
Well, I heard the secret of a successful relationship is separate apartments. Amy hesitated, clearly uncomfortable.
Amy, did you tell Sheldon yet that he has to get used to the idea that he won't be living with Leonard anymore? Penny asked her friend.
Well.
Dammit, Amy! Penny huffed.
I haven't gotten the chance yet to approach the subject. Amy justified her recalcitrance. I'm afraid he'll run away again.
Amy, let me be clear. Penny said. After Leonard and me are back from our honeymoon, we will live together. Whether it'll be here in this building or somewhere else, I don't know yet but Sheldon will not be living in the same apartment.
Fine. Amy huffed.
Go back a minute, clothing has an expiration date? Bernadette interjected.
Yes, it's called fashion. Penny nodded as Amy picked up the red dress from the top of the keep pile.

Sheldon doesn't have a favourite spot in the cafeteria. Another thing the big bang theory got wrong was partly mentioned on this video, he always knocks 3 times due to finding his dad shagging someone, in the first series penny asks him to knock her ex up for something. He never knocked 3 times to start with. He also makes a sarcastic comment to Leonard in the first or second episode outside that bloke's building but doesn't understand sarcasm after that.
Anyway thanks for this good video and to be fair there wasn't many continuity errors on the show.

Sheldon's three knock habit is a continuity error for multiple reasons. In early episodes of season one Sheldon knocks four times, and in the flashback episode that showed how Leonard and Sheldon met, Sheldon knocked once on Leonard's door, Leonard tried to ignore him, and Sheldon said I'm just gonna keep knocking til you answer, and Leonard finally answered when Sheldon knocked three times, which cemented three knocks in Sheldon's mind as the way to get people to answer the door.

Uhm, hello, what about when his mom mentions the fact that he tried to build a nuclear reactor to power the neighborhood and then it actually happens in the prequel where he gets a bunch of old smoke detectors to take the stuff out of build a nuclear reactor out of it. Im also surprised there hasnt been a reference to when Sheldon claimed that he and his family were communists on live TV

In the Young Sheldon episode where he was being bullied, his father George Cooper actually said that he was a bully when he was younger. I immediately got a callback to the Big Bang Theory episode where Lance Barber aka Jimmy Speckerman apologized for bullying Johnny Galeckis character Leonard Hofstadter, and then the next morning, Jimmy was bullying Leonard again.

The problem with the spot in YS is that in high school, no one would ever honor his ownership of a spot at the cafeteria table. If anything it would end up getting him bullied. In TBBT, the friends put up with him because the simply want to avoid the continual harassment that would occur if they didn't.

Billy Sparks on Young Sheldon isn't the bully that Sheldon said he was on The Big Bang Theory. And he didn't live down the street. He lived right next door.
Paige wasn't always friendly. She tied up Georgie's legs, shoplifted something and his it in Sheldon's bag, and punched Sheldon.

I wasn't really emotional about the series finale of The Big Bang Theory until I saw the season finale of young Sheldon right after. I felt so bad for him and the music that accompanied the Montage of the younger characters was perfect.

Sheldon processed emotional events very immaturely, even though he was advanced intellectually. Some of his trauma is caused more by that, than by what actually happened. He needed to catch up emotionally.

The season 2 finale has a little plothole in what Leonards mother is saying. As it is 5oclock in texas, it is 7 o clock in New Jearsy so Leonard should not go to bed, but dress up for school

I've never watched Young Sheldon. I loved TBBT and didn't want to sully that with the so-called origin story. Watching this it actually looks alright and may be worth my attention.

It was a must to mention Mayim & Simon's appearance in the show. It was sooooo great hearing Sheldon interact with Amy & Howard again.
How could you miss that!
