Telly’s Take
Despite declining ratings throughout the years, The Big Bang Theory remains a very strong player for The Tiffany Network — even in the coveted 18-49 year old viewer demographic. It is also quite profitable in syndication. Although we don’t have to worry about an imminent cancellation, I’ll still keep an eye on the ratings and update this page as needed. Even the most successful TV shows have a shelf life. Subscribe for free updates on any Big Bang Theory cancellation or renewal news.

What do you think? Are you happy CBS has renewed The Big Bang Theory TV through its 12th season? How would you have felt if CBS had cancelled this comedy TV series, instead?
I say go with season 12. This is the most funniest show.
I am so glad that I discovered this show! I have two mathematicians at home and I see them on this show.
I think it has to cancel that show, because there are no more seasons of the big bang theory. who cares about season 12? it’s nothing like cheers.
I am glad they have renewed this series. There are very few truly funny shows Many think they are but they are not at all. The cast has good chemistry and it truly is a good show for young and older adults. I would like to see it renewed again. They need not to try so hard at the story line and go back to why they became successful in the beginning.
