‘The Big Bang Theory’ season 10, episode 11 video: Howard, Bernadette prepare for their baby

There was no new episode of “The Big Bang Theory” airing on CBS tonight, but judging from the latest preview that was just released for next week’s installment, it absolutely feels like you’re going to see a couple of major events.

For one, apparently Sheldon’s into role-play! Not only that, but “Harry Potter” role-play. Given that it’s been an incredibly long time since he and Amy got intimate, we’re not exactly surprised to be seeing Amy do just about everything that she can in order to ensure that there is some progression in terms of her romantic life.

Now, we unfortunately must come bearing some rather-bad news for her: She’s not exactly going to be getting what she wants because of one key development: Howard and Bernadette’s baby being on the way! Consider this to be some of the worst timing known to mankind, as she is going to be going into labor and hopefully welcoming the child before the episode is over. When you think about the timeline for this show, all of this does make a little bit of sense given that it was the spring when we first learned that she was expecting. If you were to draw this out even further, odds are that it would have been rather difficult to continue telling this story.

Now, we come to the next important question: What in the world are these two going to be naming the child? We cannot imagine a situation in a million years where they are able to agree on something, and you could do a whole episode about that if you really wanted to.

Hopefully, CBS will release some further details when it comes to a synopsis for this episode in the coming days. For now, commiserate the good news about Howard and Bernadette in the comments! (Photo: CBS.)
