LOVE THE SHOW ..but I truly dislike Madys character and have from the beginning. I watch the show inspite of her and her Mothers character. All the other characters are good...Georgia's mom has been turned into quite a harpie...but Mandies it the worst. She has been written as if she feels has no flaws and everyone owes her what she gets.

Very good points. If Howard, of all people, could go to Space then Penny should have had her dream realized instead of ridiculed. It feels like they may have have been saying that if she became successful she would have moved on and there would have been even less of a chance for Leonard. So did they demolish her dream so the life in front of her would seem more acceptable?
