While we eagerly await the next spin-off series from “The Big Bang Theory” on Max, it’s a great time to revisit our fondest moments, like the notable “pass the butter” scene. Part of what makes this exchange so timeless is the feigned interest Amy exhibits out of pure frustration. She pretends to care about Sheldon’s senseless dilemma as he rambles on about the various specifications that make each system slightly different.
Since Sheldon has trouble picking up on social queues, he’s oblivious to Amy’s sarcasm, which ultimately makes the moment even funnier. She acts increasingly amused and interested until finally reaching her boiling point. When Sheldon eventually finishes lengthily explaining both sides of the console wars, he asks Amy what he should do and she gives the best response possible.

The instance is both funny and sweet as Amy continues to support Sheldon’s painstakingly slow journey with helpful reality checks along the way. Though the electronics store closes before Sheldon can make up his mind, this unforgettable moment stands out as a humorous testament to his relationship with Amy.
