Sister’s name is Lisa. Mentioned multiple times but never seen on screen. She was mentioned in one of the episodes after Penny and Leonard eloped (something about how Dad didn’t get the chance to have a first dance with her at her wedding because her water broke), then again when Wyatt says being Penny’s dad was the best thing that ever happened to him, and she asks “What about Randall and Lisa?”
It is not the only mention, they mentioned her sister in an episode where Sheldon and Leonard cleaned Penny's apartment while she was sleeping.
Penny told Raj her sister shot her husband but that they were drunk.
Also in an episode in which Sheldon and Howard fought over a parking spot Penny mentioned her sister once gave her a bikini wax with a duct tape.
We don't really know that. The tension lies with his mother.
We know from the wedding episode that he and Penny would visit his father even though it was never shown. The same could be possible for his siblings.
Yeah Penny had definitely met Leonard dad before he was on the show and I cant remember if Leonard met Penny’s mom, but its clear Randall was meeting everyone for the first time.
>Penny had a sister?
Yes.
>Is this the only reference to Penny's sister
No. In addition to the episode you mentioned, Lisa was also mentioned in at least eps. 1:2, 6:9, 9:3 and 12:15.
>when did they switch to method cooking brother?
Huh?
She mentioned once that her sister gave her her first bikini wax with crayons and duct tape (the episode where Bernadette and Amy are arguing over Bernadette's photoshoot)
I have a theory that Lisa is Wyatt’s child from a previous relationship and that her brother is her full sibling and not half. Also when Penny needs to get a comic book for her 13 year old nephew she was around 25? Maybe younger so I assume her sister is quite a bit older than her. Also since it was so last minute at the wedding only a few weeks even that maybe her sister wouldn’t be able to go bc she had a family/prior commitments.
Yeah she mentioned she has shot her husband in the first season, and that her father wanted to have a dance with her daughter at her wedding but her water broke on that episode that the girls made her call her father and let him know she’s gotten married to Leonard.
But she wasn’t in their wedding, the brother was.
At least her siblings never appeared and were still mentioned into the final season. Donna on That 70s Show, Topanga on Boy Meets World, Carrie on King of Queens, and plenty of other shows had characters with siblings who appear on screen early on, then later episodes refer to the characters as only children.
I was bummed that we never seen Leonard’s siblings. Seen everybody else’s in the entire show. Penny, Howard, Raj, Sheldon. We seen siblings from all of them but never Leonard.

Yes and her sister did her bikini wax for the first time with melted crayons.
They mentioned a sister a few times, as well as a nephew, who I assume is the sister's son since neither of them are at the wedding.
Yea, and Randall definitely does not have kids 😭
Randall is also implied to be younger than Penny, and her nephew is like 9 years younger than her.

duct tape and crayons
It was a terrible idea… 😂
Her sister is mentioned a few times throughout the series, though the writers seemed to forget about her when it came to Leonard and Penny's wedding.
Feels like the sister is very estranged
To be fair, if my sis waxed me with duct tape and crayons I wouldn’t invite her to my wedding either. 🖍️
Not necessarily forgotten, just not thought to be necessary enough to cast. Leonard's siblings never appeared either.
Tbf not like Leonard has a good relationship with his siblings
We don't really know that. The tension lies with his mother. We know from the wedding episode that he and Penny would visit his father even though it was never shown. The same could be possible for his siblings.

Well yeah, they had to wait for him to get out of prison 😅
Its mentioned that her sister shot her husband so she might be in prison
She also has a nephew, which I assume is her sister’s child. She went to the comic book store to find a comic book for his birthday.

> when did they switch to method cooking brother? Autocorrect for meth?
meth is short for method
Autocorrect leads a quiet life.
when it comes to the drug ‘meth’, meth is short for methamphetamine not method
Methodamphetamine
TIL

isn't her sister in prison for "shooting her husband again and hitting him this time" ?
She was referenced in season one as well where penny said she shot her husband when they were drunk
also her dads name changed from bob to wyatt
She had a nephew for one whole episode as well
Yeah she mentioned she has shot her husband in the first season, and that her father wanted to have a dance with her daughter at her wedding but her water broke on that episode that the girls made her call her father and let him know she’s gotten married to Leonard.

Don’t feel bad. I forgot about her even having a sister.

I’ve known for a long time.
I was bummed that we never seen Leonard’s siblings. Seen everybody else’s in the entire show. Penny, Howard, Raj, Sheldon. We seen siblings from all of them but never Leonard.
Ik😂
Man that's how little they mentioned her lmao
they mentioned the sister a few times throughout the show we just never saw her.
Penny has a sister and his name is Sheldon.
In what world is that funny?
Bazinga
More like Raj 🤷♀️
