anyhoo, but it sure seems the writers left a lot of comedic props and opps behind when they got wolowitz especially in a relationship and ultimately married. his creepy attempts to pull girls is always good.
he could be the most badass character on the show, and that's a fact that that is my opinion.

In some ways I agree and some I don't. Relationships happen in life and I like that geeks get to have sex and romance too even if it is awkward. The early Sara Gilbert character was good, Bernadette and Howard works for me and I like that she is smarter than him. Amy and Sheldon works too in it makes Sheldon almost the normal one for a change. What I do agree on is I stopped caring, if I ever did, ages ago about Leonard and Penny. The other relationships make more sense to me and not because Penny is pretty just because they way they were developed made me believe them more.
To me the show is a combination of Frazier and Perfect Strangers. In the Frazier dynamic, Sheldon is is Niles and Leonard is Frazier. On that show you needed the extreme of Niles to make Frazier be somebody to whom the audience could relate.
Perfect Strangers had that weird pairing of guys living in an apartment near the sexier girls. The show suffered as soon as those relationships started too.
