TV show description:
Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons) are best friends, roommates, and brilliant physicists at CalTech. They understand how the universe works but have little interest in the people around them.
That begins to change when an attractive young waitress and wanna-be actress, Penny (Kaley Cuoco), moves into the apartment across the hall. Leonard becomes immediately smitten with the free-spirited girl and tries to forge a relationship with her, much to the confusion and consternation of Sheldon.
The geniuses’ equally geeky coworkers are smarmy Howard Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) and Rajesh Koothrappali (Kunal Nayyar), an immigrant from India who finds it difficult to talk to most females.
Over time, other characters are introduced, like waitress Bernadette Rostenkowski (Melissa Rauch), scientist Amy Farrah Fowler (Mayim Bialik), and comic book store owner Stuart Bloom (Kevin Sussman).
Episode #279 — The Stockholm Syndrome
Bernadette and Wolowitz leave their kids for the first time; Penny and Leonard try to keep a secret; Sheldon and Amy stick together; and Koothrappali makes a new friend, as the gang travels together into an uncharted future.
First aired: May 16, 2019.
What do you think? Do you like The Big Bang Theory TV show? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a 13th season?
Linda
Never used to watched this show until this past year. It’s really funny!
Characters interesting. Sometimes u need brainless comidies
Amen, brother! I am with you 100% on that comment!
THANK GOODNESS! This show has overstayed its welcome by about ten seasons! Good riddance to brainless comedies!
Shame on CBS you have a great comedy I love the actors in this show. Sheldon does not make the show. (by the way quit pushing young Sheldon ugh) This shows makes us laugh All the actors have great story lines sorry to say but is the show not called Big Bang show (not the Sheldon Jim Parsons show) plenty of story lines to go around with out him. CBS you get some great comedies then cancel still trying to figure out why Mike & Molly , 9jkl, Mcarthys, Life in pieces and Scorpion got cancelled. CBS I guess you… Read more »
How can you end a great show just because one character wants out?????Yes we will miss Sheldon, but that is no reason to take the others away! Maybe Sheldon gets a better job offer or Amy gets a better job offer. Doesn’t mean the others won’t be able to function Please stop taking the great shows away and fill the timeslot with garbage.
Bigger names than Jim Parsons have left TV shows to end in obscurity too bad these actors got confused as to how popular they really are “Here today gone tomorrow” is not just a saying . Just ask Catherine Heigle (WHO?) (Grays Anatomy) gone and FORGOTTEN
Renew the series, it’s one of the best on television.
renew the series hopping to season 13 love the show
Love this show, but really believe sheldon has become a total pain in the a__. The same goes for the tv show sheldon, he is a brat both young and old characters. I believe Big Bang would be just as good without him.
No to every thing you said the character Sheldon is great and true to life so someone like him
This show will never be topped it should continue, it always seems fresh and the cast perfect match of comedic talent. Don’t let it go.
yes how down tell Jim Parson
I have enjoyed the show very much and eould really love to have it continue for a thirteenth season and bryond.
It is the best show ever made by far. I am hopeful someone can change Jim Parson’s mind and carry on through at least year 20! Very depressing to think this may be the last season.
I think the show should go on, even without Sheldon. I am going to miss this show
Why can’t you send Sheldon to Mars and bring in one of his distance cousins to take his place. A cousin would explain how he is just like Sheldon. Sheldon could do a special appearance once in awhile from Mars. I just started watching the reruns and I now tell all my friends (seniors) if you really want to laugh and get a pick me up watch the Big Bang. This show is the best comedy show since Lucy. As the old saying goes everyone is replaceable!
I don’t understand why this show can not continue without Sheldon. I have watched from the ist episode and it has a great cast which can carry the show off. Really disappointed with CBS choices lately.
Big bang last season this fall I understand sorta of why they are ending it but it will be missed
