The Big Bang Theory: 2.11 The Bath Item Gift Hypothesis - Recap
Leonard meets his intellectual superior in award winning scientist David Underhill. Underhill is the total opposite of Leonard: handsome, charming, and cool. He’s the whole package of brains and looks which initially doesn’t sit well with Leonard. Although when Hill asks for Leornard’s help in research he is undertaking, he happily jumps at the offer. Leonard’s joy of working with Hill is hampered by jealousy when Underhill takes an interest in Penny and the feelings are reciprocated.




Sheldon, having always viewed the holidays as a pagan ritual that is rooted in obligations rather than holiday cheer, is taken for a loop when Penny brings him a Christmas gift. He now feels obligated to buy her a gift and enlists Wolowitz and Koothrappali to help him with this task which they reluctantly agree to. Sheldon believes he has come up with the most logical gift giving scenario until he opens Penny’s gift; he cannot believe what she got him.

The Big Bang Theory TV Show is best television show, Klingon Boggle, and a 1974 Stephen Hawking lecture are all mentioned in The Big Bang Theory premiere. They have one other trait in common, too: They’re all more pleasurable ways of spending your time than this lamebrained sitcom.
Leonard (Roseanne’s Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon (Jim Parsons) are nerdy physicists whose fingers seem to have left their noses just moments ago. Across the hall is Penny (8 Simple Rules’ Kaley Cuoco), a blond bimbo who doffs her clothes in the first 15 minutes of the pilot and works at the Cheesecake Factory — the mere mention of her career choice is apparently guffaw-worthy, according to the laugh track. Throw in Leonard’s Beauty and the Geek crush on Penny and you’ve pretty much got the premise. To call this a one-joke sitcom would be a stretch.
Even if you’re not sensitive to Cheesecake Factory barbs, there’s not much to like here. The dialogue — ”I can’t look at you or your avatar right now” — falls flat. A few episodes in, the writers are already performing acrobatics with the script in order to get Penny and the dorkasauruses to mouth-breathe the same air. As for the plotting (Sheldon insults his boss, Sheldon is fired, Sheldon is rehired), let’s just say you don’t need an advanced degree to follow it.

The cast is apt enough; Parsons, in particular, does a nice take on Frasier’s Niles. But overall, Leonard and Sheldon earn a grade they’ve probably never seen before.
As with “How I Met Your Mother,” “Big Bang” consciously populates its cast with younger characters, presumably the better to hit the lower half of the 18-49 demo, as CBS gradually tries to “youthify” its profile.
That sounds logical in theory (especially since “Dancing With the Stars” has tango-ed off with part of the older audience), but TV development traditionally adheres to a simpler equation — the one that states while elaborate formulas look good on paper, sitcom survival generally boils down to the basics of execution.
