The 10 Worst The Big Bang Theory Episodes
5. The Romance Recalibration (Season 10 Episode 13)
After coming home to Leonard playing video games in his underwear, she fears the romance has gone from their relationship and, as a result, takes Amy on a spa trip instead of him. Whilst they're gone, Sheldon helps Leonard try to think of ways to rekindle their relationship. Meanwhile, Howard maps out the various squeaky floorboards of his daughter's room, to avoid waking her up.
Why it sucks: There are quite a few episodes that show the audience that Penny and Leonard just aren't right for each other (oooh controversial) and this episode somewhat epitomizes that statement. I like the premise of a couple struggling to find the romance in the relationship but the writers went about this the wrong way. What we got was Penny looking like a control freak when Leonard doesn't live up to her unrealistic fantasies making her think that she doesn't do enough for her, despite the fact that over the past, he has left a lot of his personality behind (binning most of his action figures) in order to cater to her tastes.
What didn't suck: Howard's The Walking Dead lullaby for his daughter Halley needs to be available to download somewhere.
