While still very mediocre, the show is slowly but steadily getting more bearable. Everything regarding Raj stays horrendous, but the introductions of Bernadette and Amy seem quite well done. My biggest problem besides the obvious problems is how uninteresting the romance between Penny and Lennart is. Not only have they been together and broken up multiple times, none of their big moments were interesting funny, or heart-wrenching. I´m genuinely curious if TBBT will be able to receive a higher rating as a 5/10. As while I like the introduction of the girlfriends, it kind of feels like they hardly worked with the theme socially inept nerds dating, or more so looking for a hookup/relationship.
