They did early on when the company used a dark brown glass bottle. The voice has changed multiple times since. The "English" voice sounds like a deliberate effort to stop anyone from associating a race with the character.

I'm sure the salesman promised him that they'd swap it for something else if she didn't like it, but for her to choose "his" pickup over the SUV says that he was so clueless he didn't even know something as basic as what type of vehicle to get.

Even though the woman talks about her dad, there's a disclaimer telling you the guy in the ad is not him. I presume the stuff doesn't work well enough on her dad to impress viewers.

That's how it was reported, but you're correct in that no official announcement has been made yet, and it's not impossible for a low-rated show that didn't have its initial order extended to be renewed anyway, proving the initial reports wrong.

And what's with the "translation" on the screen when she's speaking English? Was the intent for her to actually speak a little Italian, but a bad fake accent was the best she could do?

They already did a "Raj may get deported story". Why do another one with a political component that'll anger millions of viewers, especially after the network had to axe Murphy Brown?

They're there to be on TV, and the producers aren't going to devote much air time to somebody doing laundry.

They're not saying otherwise; they're just suggesting that Folger's smells better than any other "coffee" the West African fellow tried. That could have just been some dreck at fast food joints. And why is he commenting on the smell? Would his opinion be different after he tasted it?

As opposed to when? You wouldn't want her to risk screwing things up for guests by announcing that she's quitting in mid-charter, but neither did she wait until they were done cleaning up., She gave them the best opportunity to bring on a replacement.

The company is saying they want to focus on building more SUVs, trucks, and battery-electric vehicles, so it sounds like they're not giving up on small cars; it's just that the ones they'll be making won't have gasoline engines, so it made more sense to close down the plants making those than convert them.

Essentially, you become a visitor, with all of the associated limitations. Yes, you can generally say goodbyes, but you can't interfere with anyone doing their job. You aren't expected to stick around, but I presume Caroline had talked to the producers and they let her sack out while they made room/travel arrangements for her, hoping for a little more drama before she was gone. I don't know of anyone getting a security escort after quitting, but do for a firing for misuse of security privileges.

Have they changed the bottle? It used to be dark brown, with just enough transparency to see how much syrup was left. I think the color of the bottle was only intended to hide any crystallization of the syrup.

He's too tall to be comfortable driving most cars? Car designers aim for an average height of five and a half feet, and since the industry embraced ergonomics, may have become too good at fitting cars to somebody that size.

They may be able to work with the fact that Sheldon can be pretty oblivious about some things, even when he's not just focusing on himself. They reminded us of that with the monkey picture that Missy read a lot from, and Sheldon not a bit.

Fifth actually, but the point is valid.

Did Mary know he was unfaithful? Once while talking about her cooking, she said "he'll die at 50 but his love will be true".

OTOH, back in The Dumpling Paradox, the waiter says about Howard "where's your annoying little friend who thinks he speaks Mandarin", which calls into question his fluency in other languages. I seem to recall his having some trouble with sign language, missing things Emily signed and shortcutting what Raj wanted to tell her.

I'm sure they were still paying for their trade-ins too, so they've just extended that debt for a few more years.

She could have at least told Queenie why her choice of hotel was a bad idea. I wish they had explained why she picked it in the first place; I can't believe it'd have good reviews online. She said she'd do it later, so I presume there was a scheduling conflict with Emma Roberts. I suspect doing a "yay, all of the girls are safe" scene was an afterthought. Especially if somebody called 911.

I think a "no" is supposed to be accompanied by some compelling reasons that the couple may not be aware of (e.g. she's his sister) so that they can reevaluate whether to continue with their plans.

It's not fraud if you don't have to lie about the cause because insurance is going to cover it either way. It might be cheaper to pay off a few extra claims than be investigating each one.

The lack of evidence of rain would suggest that's a lie, so he probably just wanted to be sure the damage would be covered. Since she told the agent "it finally happened", she was apparently expecting it, had discussed the possibility with the agent, and already knew it would be covered.

From what we see of their home, I doubt cost is a problem, but there's a list of things you do not surprise somebody with unless you first find out exactly what they want, and vehicles are on that list (not far below wedding rings). Sorry dude, but her preferring "yours" was a chance you took.

By that measure, with the frequency of major fires in California, they'd have little chance to advertise. The woman in the "she shed" ad is saying that her shed was deliberately burned down. Homeowners insurance generally doesn't cover arson, so I guess the point of the ad is that theirs does, although I'm not sure what viewers they're targeting for whom that would be a concern.

I liked the attention to detail when Georgie said that he and Hershel dropped the engine on a Pacer. Not only was it a specific model consistent with the setting of the episode, but, because of a last-minute design change, the engine on that car was shoehorned in, so what Georgie did would have given him a good sense of accomplishment. As soon as the safety issue of airbags became known, it also became standard to be able to shut them off. Some cars would do it automatically, depending on the weight of the passenger, although I don't know how quickly that became widespread.
