Synopsis The Big Bang Theory: Season 9, Episode 12
With Amy away at a convention, Sheldon hangs out with the friend with
"the best offer", which happens to be Raj who has time booked in the
telescope room searching for rogue planets. While Raj initially regrets
asking Sheldon to join him, Sheldon does become a useful participant in
the process. However, the successful result of their time may cause
further problems down the road for the two of them. Meanwhile, Penny is
having problems trying to arrange a business appointment to meet with a
psychiatrist named Dr. Gallo. Penny is able to convince Leonard to book
an appointment with Dr. Gallo pretending to be a patient to lay the
groundwork for getting Penny an appointment. Leonard and Penny's
resulting time with Dr. Gallo may have deeper implications than they
would have imagined. And just as Howard and Bernadette are beginning the
process of remodeling the house, Stuart gives them the news that he has
found an apartment and will be moving out. Despite Stuart being a thorn

Review :
What part of this is sitcom?
After the apparently 'amazing' previous episode (see IMDb rating for confirmation), TBBT continues to stroll in utter mediocrity. As an episode, this is as uninteresting as it gets but not nearly as awful as it has gotten in the past.
Sheldon assists Raj with his work and they discover a medium sized asteroid. This leads to complications. This plot was terrible as far as the dialogue was concerned. The "banter" between the two as to what the asteroid will be named was garbage, to be completely honest. It is so clear watching Jim Parsons that he has lost all interest with the project, whether he will admit it or not. The once charismatic Sheldon Cooper is nothing more than an obsessive, shrill and infuriating character at this point. Raj continues to be oh so boring.
Stuart finally moves out....after like 2 years. And the funniest thing is, the character's screen time has been multiplied in recent seasons (8 and 9) compared to his earlier seasons, but the impact as a result has been lessened. Stuart was a funny character at the start of the show, and was good for a laugh or two from time to time. The fact that the writers chose to dramatize the character (losing the comic book store, losing Howard's mother) shows just how insane crew have become. After moving out, unsurprisingly enough, Howard and Bearneadette miss him.
The only part of the episode that maybe offered a laugh or two was Leonard's psychological counseling session, where he again whines about his mother. This part of the episode does reinforce the question as to why Penny and Leonard got married, and we sense an insecurity in Penny.
One slightly decent aspect aside, this continues in TBBT form of recent years: boring, unfunny and obvious. None of the story lines in the episode screams out "SITCOM!" like it should. When viewing something like "Seinfeld" (to compare is blasphemy, I know!), the story lines have a sitcom feel to them. This episode has nothing of a sitcom element to it, and the writing is especially to blame. There is almost not a single laugh in its 18 and a half minute runtime. Yes, TBBT is operating 18 minute episodes compared to the standard 22-23 mins of other sitcoms. And yet, the 18 minutes felt too long...
