I'm doing a series review also. This episode was top notch and Sheldon's video presentation was off the charts brilliant. Craig T. Nelson also shone in this one. Annie Potts deserves an Emmy and Raegan Revord is a budding superstar. This show has developed into something much better than the Big Bang Theory was. At first I had my doubts about this project but was wrong.

Counting the days until the next season

This season three finale is about as big a "wow" moment as has ever been on television, but the entire series so far has been about as big a "wow" moment as well.
Whose is the predominant mind behind this show? Is it Jim Parsons? Chuck? Someone else? A combination? Because whoever it is, this is the secret sauce.
And the genius applies to the entire production. Writers. Actors. Really. Academy Awards have been given out for lesser screenplays and performances.
And then there's the sets (welcome to East Texas), the costumes (ditto), and the hair and makeup (Annie Potts' wigs and eyeliner -- get out!), and the attention to detail when pop songs are played, and ... somebody stop me!

Season 4, Where Are You?

This series just keeps getting better and better. The third season finale had me laughing out loud constantly -And then in tears near the end. The writing and production of this show is simply the best. It's clear that everyone involved in the series takes pride in their work. The ensemble cast is perfect, with acting that lives up to the writing.
I can't wait for future seasons -Though I'm dreading when Sheldon turns 14, as that's canonically when he loses his father, and I just can't imagine the show without Lance Barber. I guess I'll just have to trust the team to make things work, however they handle it.

Warning: Spoilers
I'm sorry, this episode is good and everything but it leans more towards the 'dislike' side of the fence for me solely because of Mary.
Women can be so impulsive, reactionary and volatile sometimes it's annoying. She literally hid away one of the most important decisions a father should have to make for his son and her excuse was that she's the one that has to care for him (paraphrasing) but it's like, YOU'RE THE MOTHER, IT'S YOUR JOB... and he's a father that's present, active and responsible no less.
What makes me even more angry is that she gets to have the last say as they try to convince her at the end... When did men stop being the head and leader of the household, when did we have to leave the last say to women?! It's no wonder society is failing. Poor episode, poor parental dynamic, poor household example. She went away scot-free by the way and George still remained with her, infact, she was somehow deserving of consolation towards the end, pity party for the victim player why don't we. Shaking my head man.
