The Big Bang Theory: 10 Reasons Amy & Sheldon Should Break Up
8. The Joke Has Been Flogged To Death
She is sexually frustrated, he is oblivious. We get it. After a few series this was hilarious, but now it is a dead joke. It is such a predictable part of the show that to remove it would push the show into new realms. Like we said earlier, the kiss took four years, so this joke will in all likelihood last forever if it remains in the show. So far Amy has managed to get a spanking from Sheldon, and she pretended to be ill to get physical attention from him. Is this funny anymore? Has the joke run its course? We expect these sort of jokes now, and this expectation means that they are no longer funny. Unpredictability and bizarre humour is what made the show so successful; Bazinga grew out of this, and the multiple science and comic based gags follow this sort of humour; we do not know what is coming. However, we know what is going on with ShAmy. She will make an advance of some sorts, and he will be completely oblivious to her feelings.
