The Big Bang Theory has a new leader. Deadline reports Steve Holland has been named as the new showrunner of the CBS TV show.
The long-running comedy is headed into its 11th season this fall. The cast includes Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Mayim Bialik, Simon Helberg, Melissa Rauch, and Kunal Nayyar.
Holland, who previously served as an executive producer on The Big Bang Theory, has been promoted because former showrunner Steven Molaro will now be running the CBS sitcom’s upcoming spinoff, Young Sheldon.
Molaro and co-creator Chuck Lorre will still oversee The Big Bang Theory, but Holland will serve as a day-to-day showrunner. The new season of The Big Bang Theory debuts on CBS on September 25th at 8 p.m. ET/PT. The premiere of Young Sheldon follows at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT.

I’ve stopped watching Big Bang because it isn’t as funny as it once was but also the characters are irritating, especially Sheldon. So why would I want to watch an irritating young kid as well? I deal with irritating people daily, I don’t want to see them in my home as well
I am a big fan of the show but I think a new show runner might bring new life and energy into the show. However I have zero interest in Young Sheldon and I will not be watching it.
