The Big Bang Theory - Season 7, Episode 19 'The Indecision Amalgamation' [Review]


The Big Bang Theory is back after a short break, and it would seem to be all about Sheldon, who – surprise, surprise – is incapable of making decisions. In this episode, Sheldon and Amy debate over whether to purchase a XBOX one or a PS4, Penny is in a state of inner turmoil about whether to accept a role in a sequel to a terrible ape movie, Bernadette does something silly and Raj has two dates. No, the last one is real, promise.



Sheldon is back on top form in the episode and the writers have included a number of classic one-liners for the character, revolving around the great XBOX one vs. PS4 debate. The writing for Sheldon is always snappy and Jim Parsons does a great job performing and emulating the complex and often tedious (but loveable) quirks that make the character stand out. Ever since the introduction of quick-witted Neuroscientist Amy Farrah-Fowler, the show has been injected with a burst of new energy, and finally Sheldon has someone who can match him in some respects. This episode was no exception, as Amy feigns excitement and interested in Sheldon’s inability to make a decision between the two gaming systems, which results in a fair amount of hilarity. Mayim Bialik is in her element with this role, and it shows. 

If you would like to read the rest of this review, including segments on Wil Wheaton (who was in the week's episode) and more on Penny's terrible acting roles, then you can read it on I'm With Geek, available at the link below!
