The Big Bang Theory: Season 12 [DVD] [2018] [2019]

What an amazing show. I've only just watched this properly from start to finish and it's one of the best shows I've ever seen. Seeing how all the characters grow over the 12 seasons is amazing, especially Sheldon! Sheldon's transformation is incredible and so moving. His speech in the final episode had me in tears! Twice! (When I watched in again) And I'm not usually a crier. I really hope they do a film at some point so that we can have update of where they're all up to. A really amazing show that will be sadly missed.

Twelfth and final season of popular sitcom the Big Bang Theory comes to dvd, in a three disc box set.All twenty four episodes are spread across three discs. A step up from the two of season eleven. With more extras than that had as well. Technically the season finale was a double length episode, so technically it's a twenty three episode season, but that is presented as a two part episode here so that is why you get twenty four. All of which run roughly twenty mins approx, with the very last one coming in at twenty three mins.Being a final season of a twelve season show means it's not really a jumping on point, so new viewers should start with season one.Following on from the end of last season, Sheldon and Amy get used to married life. And work on their theory as well. Howard and Bernadette now have two children to raise. Leonard and Penny just get on with life and deal with things that come up. While Raj and Stuart both have ladies in their lives.All might just learn which is more important. Getting what you want, or true friendship...This is an odd season, because whereas season eleven started to feel tired, this one doesn't feel that way at all. it's a very solid season from the off. Every episode feels consistently good at the very least. And one or two of them are really very good ones indeed. Especially the Halloween episode.There are some good guest stars. They don't overuse having them though.The occasional episode that just has stories of the week not plot advances doesn't feel like filler.However, during the first half of the season, if there had been no more episodes to follow, I would not have batted an eyelid. It felt like a show going through the motions, albeit very well. It was only after thirteen of them, when I suddenly realised the end was nigh, that it did start to feel as if I didn't want it to end.The ending is excellent though. Some great callbacks to things of the past, some great explanations of things, and whilst the second part isn't quite as funny as the first, it does have a good idea at it's heart, which leads to an excellent final few mins that will leave you with a lump in the throat as they pass. But it didn't leave me wanting more. It really did end it properly.A couple of other issues: you can never perhaps get all you want from an ending, and some of it may be down to actor availability, but we don't get to see one guest character. The first season I think they've missed. There are a few relative characters who we've never seen who I was hoping for, but who never turn up. And now never will. Although one character who usually appeared once at year at best becomes a semi regular this time out. And is fun in that role.Also, two major plotlines: one gets scant attention after the second half of the season. And doesn't result in the end you would have hoped for, making it feel a bit of a waste. The other doesn't get any attention at all for far too long. But does end better.So not quite an ending that can do everything, but not a bad one at all.The discs have the following languages and subtitles:Languages: English, French, Castilian Spanish.Subtitles: English, Castilian SpanIsh, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, Norwegian, Swedish.Extras: On disc one, thirty seven mins of highlights of the 2018 comic con panel. Nice to see it again, since these were on most of the seasons but not the last one. A fun watch.Disc two: The Big Bang Theory's impact. You might think it's about it's impact on the tv and cult show landscape, but actually it's about a grant for scientists they fund. An interesting and worthwhile eight min watch.The Big Bang theory cast visit Ellen. Twelve mins of them being interviewed and playing a game. A fun watch.The Sweet Spot. Not about Sheldon's spot, but an eight min feature about Mark Sweet, the show's warm up man. Interesting and very involving, this is a really good feature and highly recommended.Gag reel: the usual six mins worth of outtakes. This one starts slowly, but gets really good midway on. One great prop mishap in particular.The last days of the Big Bang Theory. Twelve mins showing the production of the last episode, and all that went into it. If you're interested in tv production, this is engrossing stuff. You will note from it that the last few secs of the last scene to be filmed in front of the audience got cut from the final episode, so this is worth checking out for that.Unravelling the mystery: A Big Bang farewell special. Twenty mins of Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco touring the sets and wallowing in memories. Nicely melancholic, this is a good watch and a good thing to watch last as a way to round it all off.A pretty decent final season, and a good box set for it.

When u have watched show for 12 years thay become part of your life albett just a little but to see them end is sad great funn are miss them buy it

Good service quick delivery Good quality dvd

Aw it's all over :( No spoilers. A good series, not the best of them all, but good enough and it's the usual Big Bang fare so you'll know by now if you like it or not. The series thread arc is good and strong, but let down a bit by the ending which feels a bit schmaltzy and misses the crescendo of laughs and humour I'd hoped for in a multi-season grand finale. In some ways the penultimate episode is better than the last. So 4* not 5 sadly. I'm glad they wrapped it up, but it did feel like it could have had a more zany ending. Rumours of a spin-off exist though, so maybe we might see a bit more of some of them yet!

The 12th and Final Big Bang series was a decent way to end the hugely popular sitcom with some story threads reaching fitting conclusions, some left more open. It's interesting that, especially with Superhero movies, the nerd culture that the Big Bang Theory mined for laughs is now pretty much mainstream culture so it's fitting the show ended when it did. The nerds won.The Blu Ray set features some worthwhile behind the scenes features including filming the final episodes, an interesting insight into the filming process in a short film concentrating on the warm-up artist, bloopers, a feature on the Big Bang scholarships and an extra episode reviewing the history of the show.

Another brilliant set of episodes, which had me in stitches laughing. The quick fire comments and repartie are brilliant. The writers and actors, producers are totally brilliant, and good to see a selection of excellent guests also, throughout the series.

I waited for the price to come down, which it did fairly quickly. I was wary of buying it because seasons 10 and 11 were so boring, I was afraid it was going to get worse......instead, season 12 is the best season ever. Consistently funny, all the characters have grown, and the writing this season was superb. I have the complete set now.
