Tonight, you lost an entire family because of Sara's unlikeable vocabulary. We had to mute a lot of the show's dialogue because she was in the scene. If you want broad appeal to college students and families across America, you need to tone this character down, and get rid of SO MANY sexual references. We LOVED the episode where Sheldon is sick with flu. Hilarious!

do not change her character. Maybe your kids should learn about sexual references for when they step foot outside your house and enter the real world. Honestly, I see just as many sexual references in commercials.

Sorry Sara Gilbert plays these roles so well. She is a good actress and works well with these characters. Do not change anything about her character. She is Sheldon's albatross and everyone needs one.

If you feel so strongly about the sexual references then maybe it'd be best if you told your children that the show is for them. After all it's no fault of CBS if they create a character you feel is too strong for your children. I grew up watching sitcoms like Fraiser and Seinfeld, which are both rife with sexual innuendos, and I turned out just fine.

TBBT is not being marketed as a family friendly sitcom anyway. Their target audience is not the same as Family Ties or Growing Pains.

I love her dry sense of humor and sarcasm - she plays well off of Sheldon.

CBS sitcoms are targeted at adults. It is not the job of prime time television to parent your children. If you don't approve of them watching it, don't let them watch it. Tape it and watch it after they go to bed. I agree that the writing is well done for the adults that are watching it and should not be censored.

maybe her and leonard should run away, then they both would be off the show. I hate his face.

Aspergian female honesty and bluntnessincludes references to sex. It is central to portraying her character. I agree, keep her character as written and continue to expand it. I love that the neurotypicals are the minority in this show!

Interesting use of word - "neurotypicals" Dictionary.com says: pertaining to autistic persons whose neurological development and function is within the normal range; also called neurologically typical, Do you mean people of "average" intelligence, perhaps "intellectually challenged?"

I see too much of Sara Gilbert’s trashy Rosanne character Darlene in Leslie Winkle. It’s not the writing that bothers me, it’s the actress.

I totally hate this character! She is so nasty and unlikeable that I wished the writers would just forget her and leave her in the lab! The idea of a foil for Sheldon but Leslie Winkle isn't that character.

I, too, don't really see what Leslie adds to the show. It really feels like the character is just a vehicle to get Sara Gilbert into the cast. But the cast that was already there does fine without her.If CBS needs Sara in a show, maybe they should just build another sitcom around her, and leave her out of TBBT completely.And yes, her bad mouth and sex talk turn me completely off, as well. This is why I have quit watching HIMYM and Two and a Half Men. I would not want to lose TBBT, but if it comes down to it, I'll go back to my I Love Lucy and Honeymooners and Andy Griffith Show DVDs. You don't have to fill a sitcom with blatant sexual references and bad language to be funny. If that's what it takes to bring enjoyment to the current generation, then we've become quite poorer for it.
