Soon, though, Mary gets frustrated as Pastor Jeff prefers a quick, simple wedding over a huge, romantic ceremony. This means no kitschy decoration, no horse carriage, no ice sculpture. Not even a wedding cake is a necessity for the Pastor. According to him, it would be enough to “get a bunch of Ding Dongs and stack them in the shape of a heart”. His unromantic ideas do NOT work for Mary. She cannot believe how very little the couple cares about their wedding day. When she sees the most perfect dress for Robin she cannot help but think about how she never had the wedding of her dreams. She never got to walk down the aisle wearing an amazing dress. She was heavily pregnant when she and George got married, none of the pretty dresses would fit her. Mary cries, she feels like she has missed out on a lot. She and the Pastor agree that it is better Mary leaves the wedding planning to someone else.
When the two lovebirds finally tie the knot a few days later, they get slightly carried away and let their wedding guests witness a very intense make-out session. If I were a religious person from 1980s Texas, I sure would have been outraged by the Pastor’s public display of affection.
In the meantime, Georgie brings home a girl and George suddenly worries whether his son actually knows how babies come to be and how to prevent it. All these issues Mary probably has to deal with on a daily basis overwhelm the father of three. He calls Connie for backup but she seems equally helpless.
One of the highlights of the episode undoubtedly was when Sheldon invited a strange man he got to know on the internet to his family's house only because the guy claimed to have taped the Star Trek episode the boy has missed. Sheldon, honey, that guy could have been an ax murderer.
Out of all the episodes that aired so far this season, A Live Chicken, a Fried Chicken and Holy Matrimony was probably the one that caused the most laugh-out-loud moments. Do you agree? Let us know how you liked the episode!
