If They do break up Leonard and Penny AGAIN, I think not only will they lose and enormous part of their audience, but it would also represent extremely lazy and unimaginative writing, something we don't usually associate with US comedies. Get togther, break up, get together, break up, get together break up, come on.

Of course last time Penny got drunk and did something rash, after she broke up with Leonard last time and then dragged him into bed, she regretted it the next day and it really hurt Leonard. That is probably why he would hesitate, did she really want to marry or was this just a dissappointment rebound while drunk that she would regret the next day. Leonard has said that he only wants to marry her when she is ready. Of course this might just be a prelude to a real engagement story line next week, a sort of teaser, but the recent questionable quality of the writing doesn't make that likely.

They are in pay negotiations for season 8, so maybe one or other of them will be leaving the series, that would of course spell the end of TBBT as their relationship has been the core of the story for the past six years.

Oh well it was good while it lasted.
