35 Times I Reacted to ‘The Big Bang Theory’s’ Premiere Episode!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Northeastern chapter.

The Big Bang’s Theory’s premiere episode aired Monday night and as an occasional and sometimes binge-watcher of the show, it felt right that I write down my reactions to how the first episode of Season 11 went down! It is also fitting to examine the show this week as the title character, Sheldon Cooper, is often debated within the psychological community. Finally, there will be SPOILERS so come back after you’ve watched it!

Sit back and enjoy!

1. HE PROPOSED OMG!!! HE PROPOSED!!!

12. Penny’s first reaction…same.

13. Turns out, you can get pregnant while you’re still breastfeeding?

14. Also, is baby #2 going to cry as loud as Hallie?

15. I think all of us out there pity Raj’s countless failed attempts with women…

16. COME ON WOLOWITZ…POSITIVE MEANS PREGNANT.

18. Ohh.. Stewart…. You awkward little creep.

19. Amy and Sheldon are so cute! When Amy introduced Sheldon as her ‘fiance’… TEARS!

20. Uh oh, it’s their first fight as an engaged couple…

21. Why can’t Sheldon appreciate and respect Amy’s intellectuality like the rest of us do!

22. YES GURL. AMY KNOWS HOW TO USE A GOOD BURN.

23. Even though it is seen that Sheldon as a character sometimes exhibits Asperger-like characteristics and many view him with idiosyncratic qualities, I love the show’s ability to take such a matter with light-heartedness and depict a world where instead of suffering alone, Sheldon has all his friends and even his girlfriend giving him continuous love and support.

24. Okay, Penny’s anecdote wasn’t THAT great.

25. WOAH BERNADETTE, THAT’S A GREAT IDEA.

26. I SUPPORT THE IDEA OF PENNY AND LEONARD HAVING A BABY!!

27. Sometimes I wish I had a Leonard too…I think we all need a Leonard.

28. Does anyone else think Raj and Stuart could be a thing?

30. Penny diving into the cake face first? Literally did the exact same thing last week.

31. Even with Sheldon’s mostly robotic exterior to emotions, I love how he continues to learn and grow in the relationship not just for himself but for Amy too.

32. #Shamy are both so patient and caring towards one another, their innocent love makes my heart melt!!

33. OHHH NOO…AMY SEES THE GIRL WHO KISSED SHELDON!!!!

34. WHAT?! THEY’RE HUGGING???

35. OHHH…I GET IT. Who knew all Sheldon needed was to kiss another woman to realize the only woman he ever wanted to kiss was Amy?! Seriously guys, TEARS.
