The Best Shows on TV

TV’s Moments of Joy: Residual Pixie Dust

Big Bang Theory-Eliza Dushku as an FBI agent?  Sure, why not!  This week, Sheldon screwed Howard out of a high-level security clearance for some work with the space program by mentioning the long-ago Mars rover incident.  But, it was the return of Penny (hiding behind the bar, since she was probably still on crutches when this was taped) that gave us the best single scene in the episode.  Sheldon was determined to get drunk, but he couldn’t swallow the shot Penny gave him, though it wasn’t for lack of trying…he just kept spitting it back into the shot glass!  In the end, his olive branch to Howard was his beloved spot on the couch, which he said he loved far more than his own mother.  That lasted 94 seconds.  And this week’s title card, which Chuck Lorre tags every one of his shows with, was a classic.  You can read it (and any of Lorre’s other title cards) by clicking here.
