Big Bang Theory fans spot season six plot hole: ‘One of the laziest shows on TV’

Fans have discovered multiple plot holes in the popular comedy series

Fans of The Big Bang Theory are constantly landing on new theories, or else discovering plot holes long after the series ended.  

The latest continuity error to emerge has been shared on Reddit this week, where a fan pointed out something they spotted in 2013’s season six.  

“I’m on my bajillionth rewatch of the series (it’s my comfort show, don’t judge) and I noticed something during the S6 E20 episode The Tenure Turbulence,” they wrote.

“Obviously everyone’s fighting the whole time to get tenure, embarrassing themselves multiple times in front of Mrs Davis, only to learn later on that they were all nominated. But then, to my knowledge, it’s never brought up again?? They never say if they got it or lost it?”

The fan continued: “We can assume none of them got it considering it’s never mentioned again, but it seems odd and almost lazy to have an entire episode dedicated to them fighting for tenure and then never reveal who got it?”

Another fan asked why the original poster was surprised by the show’s inconsistency.

“It's one of the laziest shows on TV, what do you expect?” they wrote. “They didn't even give Penny a last name for f***'s sake, they don't give a s*** about continuity like this.”

Last year, fans called out a plot hole in which Howard appeared to suggest his parents were together long enough for him to observe how they never spoke to each other.

This seemed to contradict his backstory that his father left the family when he was very young.  

All episodes of The Big Bang Theory are available to watch on Netflix.
