When will The Big Bang Theory end? Recently executive producers Chuck Lorre and Steve Molaro spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the future of the hit CBS TV show.
The long-running comedy is headed into its 11th season this fall and has already been renewed for a 12th. The cast includes Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Mayim Bialik, Simon Helberg, Melissa Rauch, and Kunal Nayyar.
Speaking to THR, Lorre said he’s surprised The Big Bang Theory has made it to 11 seasons:
We never really figured to be at year 11, let alone what’s going to happen after 12. One could easily presume that would be the end of the series, but I’m just amazed we’re here.”
Executive producer Steve Molaro added that he’s not sure when the CBS show will end:
We look at one episode at a time, that’s what we’ve been doing for the last 10 years and it’s gotten us this far.”
However, CBS Entertainment chief Kelly Kahl seemed interested in keeping the show on for as along as possible:
As long as we can go; 20 years. I hope to have it as long as we can.”
Season 11 of The Big Bang Theory debuts on CBS on September 25th at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
What do you think? Do you watch The Big Bang Theory? How many more seasons do you think the show should last?
This show should have ended 2 seasons ago. Now it’s just another Friends, but with nerds. Main characters all married (or getting there) and it’s not funny any more just recycled material. I liked it better when the nerds were nerds (socially awkward, afraid of girls, told nerd jokes) and Penny was young and perky (read hot). Now she’s just an old married woman. Please, pull the plug while your on top. Don’t be another Roseanne.
It should stay on for as long as possible. It’s getting better and better with every season. They come up with new stuff every time. The cast is amazing and the producers as well as the writers. It’s amazing to see them year after year doing such cool stuff and continuing making us laugh. It should never stop! We all hope it WILL go on for many, many years to come! It’s the most amazing show ever made, topping EVERY other comedy ever made. 🙂
CBS No! Season 12 should be the last season. There are very few story lines left after (I’m presuming) Sheldon and Amy’s honeymoon. Take the advice of Seinfeld and end before you get bad. Lord knows you’re starting to get stale.
I hope it ends soon Raj is clearly gay Howard and Leonard should both be divorced Sheldon and Amy should start their mars adventure now. The main characters are now in their ,40’s and still can’t dress themselves properly. The nerd thing is done it is just not funny anymore or close to anything resemling reality. Just blow up the series
I disagree but I do think Raj should be with howard
Howard shouldn’t divorce. Penny and Leonard should.
Most enjoyable comedy show on t.v.
