tennisgurl May 14, 2021 Share May 14, 2021 That was a serious downer, especially after last weeks episode also ended on such a sad note. I knew this was coming, as they seem to want to stick with BBT cannon, but this is going to be seriously rough goings next season. This has quickly gone more into the drama side of being a dramady, and while its not exactly a barrel of laughs I am really engaged with everything. No George, don't do it, especially not with Brenda! That just makes it even worse, cheating is bad enough, let alone with her friend/neighbor. It does make sense with everything that has been set up, Benda is lonely George has been depressed for a long time and his marriage is on the rocks, it sucks but it has all been set up. The affair and the marriage between George and Mary crumbling, plus the reminder last week of George's impending death, means that we are going to have a lot of sad coming up. George trying to be there for Missy, in an awkward kind of way, was really sweet. Missy isn't wrong that Mary always takes Sheldon's side, probably because Mary and Sheldon really are a lot alike. It was also really nice when Georgie made his mom some soup for dinner. Not the best soup ever, but its the thought that counts. I also really like that Sheldon tried to look out for Missy in his own way, and that they had a nice scene in the creepy Scooby Doo shack. Its interesting watching this when thinking about how Sheldon of BBT talked about his dad and family. Its been awhile since I watched BBT, but I remember him talking about his dad like he was this big dumb redneck jerk who was always yelling at Mary and cheated on her and was generally a crappy husband and father. They probably went in a different direction with George in the show because that doesn't sound like a very fun sitcom, even a sitcom with a lot of more serious subjects, but as this show is from the perspective of an older post BBT Sheldon, who is now a husband and father himself, you could probably see it as him being more perspective on his father as he got older and matured. His thoughts on his dad were colored by the affair and how close he is with his mom, but now can see that, while the upcoming affair is an awful thing to do, their marriage had a lot of problems even beyond that, which were on both George and Mary, who both made mistakes in their marriage, and that his dad was ultimately a good, if flawed, man who loved his family even when he made mistakes, and that he loved Sheldon very much even if he never fully understood him. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6781446
tessaray May 14, 2021 Share May 14, 2021 I liked the episode. They finally let Missy off the couch, so going forward the height difference shouldn't be an issue. And Georgie was sweet. They are doing a good job laying the foundation for all the various storylines. I feel for all the characters, though Mary is really the most annoying.

Yeah, but having Mary suggest out loud that she could give the sermon might have been the best part of the episode —albeit also the most unrealistic.

ItCouldBeWorse May 14, 2021 Share May 14, 2021 (edited) 18 hours ago, Yeah No said: I agree. I have faith that the writers of this show are skillful enough to make everything that happens plausible, believable, and not quite as dark as anticipated from the looks of this finale. Maybe after a night of drinking and being seen with this woman Mary might get wind of it and believe something happened that didn't actually happen. Or the next morning George himself will believe something happened that didn't happen and won't remember what actually happened because he was drunk. There are many ways the writers can sanitize this so as not to go to the dark place it looks like it's going in this episode. The writers can make George look like he was manipulated and he might actually not be guilty of adultery at all. But it may really look that way to Mary nonetheless if she finds out about it, which would be regrettable, but that would still be more sympathetic to George than the alternative. Or maybe Brenda gives George good advice. She knows how hard it is on a child when his father isn't around.

To anyone else considering bailing - wait and see, you might be surprised at how they work things out much better than it looks right now. In the words of my dear late mother, who at moments like this would tell me, "Don't borrow trouble". Also, the fact that George to this point has been portrayed as such a good father, unlike the impression we got from Sheldon on TBBT is probably a clue that Sheldon's recollections of things are not as accurate as he likes to think they are.

Spartan Girl May 15, 2021 Share May 15, 2021 Mary is really starting to remind me of Marge Simpson in all the bad ways: a self-righteous churchy that always has to be right— but to be fair to Mary, she did kind of own to to her crap somewhat in that scene with Georgie. That’s more than Marge Simpson has done in the last 20 years. I agree that the way she railroaded George and Missy was wrong. I get that she was having a bad day but she didn’t even let either of them explain what happened with Missy. She just immediately took Sheldon’s side and blamed everyone else.

She was also taking down her posters and stuff, which he objected to (because he doesn't like change). I don't recall him actually doing anything to her stuff, though. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6783450

I really should keep this show on the DVR for awhile so that I can go back and reference things as they're brought up on the forums! I wonder if there will come a time when Connie actually feels bad about all of the insults she hurled George's way. I wouldn't like it if my Mom said stuff like that about Mr. Chat. Some of it is humorous, but Connie really seems to hold a grudge against George for getting Mary pregnant. Note to Connie: Mary was just as responsible for the outcome of them having sex. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6783464

kili May 16, 2021 Share May 16, 2021 Quote I don't recall him actually doing anything to her stuff, though. The last we saw, was her looking upset after Sheldon said "You're very irritable. This might be why you're having boy problems." which was a pretty heartless thing to say given the situation. 2 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6783570

WinnieWinkle May 16, 2021 Share May 16, 2021 Mary was wrong to go off at Missy as if the only issue of the evening was her tearing something that belonged to Sheldon, however as the mother of a former drama queen there is no way I would have let my daughter hold the whole family hostage to her crisis. Not blaming Mary entirely here, she walked in on things and didn't bother to find out what was going on before she jumped on Missy. IMO anyway Meemaw and George should never had indulged Missy the way they did. My daughter for one thing absolutely would not have been allowed to play the same damn song at full blast over and over and over! In her case at that age it would have been the Spice Girls. No. Just no. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6783629

Mellowyellow May 16, 2021 Share May 16, 2021 This week's episode was unsettling but last week's was so much more sad for me. I'm going to hang in here because the BBT writers gave me my perfect show! They gave me everything I ever wanted on BBT so I've got faith they can turn this around and give us a tasteful show while still juggling cannon. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6783958

I sure hope so! It's tough trying to please the BBT fans and the new YS fans. I would hope that the writers and producers really thought this through before starting YS, rather than making it up as they go in regards to handling certain storylines. 15 hours ago, WinnieWinkle said: He gives as good as he gets.

Usually it seems to be Connie making the snide remarks to George, but that comment George made about her other children was a bit mean. In his defense though, some of Connie's comments in the past weren't very nice either. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6784085

Even if they started this show with no plans (not saying that is the case, just hypothesizing) and didn't think it would be this popular, they've proven that they generally make sound writing choices. Haha it's so weird how much faith I have!!!! Don't let me down writers!!!!! I say this as someone burned badly by HIMYM and did not recover until BBT! 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6786042

They've mentioned 2 brothers early in the series, like within the first 2 or 3 episodes, I don't think ever to be mentioned again.

Lucky for me local TV was a year behind on HIMYM where I was living so I knew before the last season arrived that they'd (IMO) ruined it. For me the show ended a year early! I will continue to record YS and read up on episodes before deciding if I want to watch them or not, there are sure to be some good episodes that deal with topics other than George's infidelity and death. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/118469-s04e18-the-wild-and-woolly-world-of-nonlinear-dynamics/page/2/#findComment-6786131
