The Big Bang Theory: 10 Reasons Amy & Sheldon Should Break Up

5. A Single Amy Would Give Some Great New Gags

We€™ve seen Amy€™s desire appear in multiple episodes; she grew infatuated with one of Penny€™s ex lovers, and the joke over her sexual frustration has reached boiling point. Imagine if these frustrations and desires were outsourced, and we saw her trying to pick up a guy in a bar. Amy has developed social skills during her time with Sheldon, and we would see her try to test these skills in the real world. This would be a refreshing change for a show which so far has focused on a small and tight nit group of friends. This does not mean that she should become a female equivalent of Barney Stinson, but it does mean that occasionally on a girls night out, she could seek out a man and attempt to chat them up; how can that not be funny?
