- TriviaLeslie Winkle returns and makes a special guest appearance. She was never mentioned between her previous appearance, season 3's The Lunar Excitation (2010), and this episode.
- GoofsSheldon mentions he is a fan of "Tibetan" throat singing, which doesn't exist. He probably meant Tuvan throat singing, which does and which he demonstrated in season 3, episode 15 "The Large Hadron Collision."
- Quotes
Leslie Winkle: In the past I would have said something obnoxious, like "Happy birthday, dumbass," but I'm not going to do it. You and I have both grown a lot, and it's just so nice to see you all again. So... Happy birthday, Sheldon.
Sheldon Cooper: Oh now, you know I hate change. Say it.
Leslie Winkle: Happy birthday, dumbass!

Featured review
Okay, but doesn't stand out
By today's standards, this episode is average at most. Nothing really stands out, even for a 200th episode. The group gets together to celebrate Sheldon's birthday and they invite a few surprise guests over, as well. Adam West hardly does a thing and Leslie Winkle (Gilbert) only appears briefly, so the episode doesn't really stand out and blends in with most of the season. With the 200th episode, you expect something special, something that impacts and changes the lives of the characters. For example, the 100th episode got Penny and Leonard back together! Maybe the writers should have waited a couple of more episodes before announcing Bernadette's pregnancy? That would have been a perfect impact for the 200th episode! There are some funny wisecracks and even a sentimental moment between Sheldon and Penny, but if you're expecting something ground breaking from this, you're in for a disappointment.
