The Big Bang Theory is without doubt one of the most iconic ensemble cast series ever created. All the main characters of the nerd-centric comedy are relatable and at the same time quirky as hell. All the storylines explored in the series are either strange and really cringey, or sweet and meaningful. And that’s what makes it brilliant.
The main characters of the series are Howard, Leonard, Sheldon, Raj, and Penny. Later some of the new characters were added to the permanent cast and characters like Amy, Bernadette and Stuart appeared a lot more on the screen.
The most interesting thing though is about Stuart. The actor Kevin Sussman first auditioned for the role of Howard, but ended up being a looner named Stuart whose gig was to be miserable. However, in the episode called The Hofstadter Isotope he successfully hit on Penny and ended up dating her for a moment.

Young Sheldon boss Steve Holland would like to use this opportunity to address the fate of Paige Swanson (and debunk all of your tragic theories about her absence in The Big Bang Theory).
Mckenna Grace’s character, a fellow child prodigy, was introduced early in Season 2 of the prequel series and served as Sheldon’s chief rival at East Texas Tech. Aside from Tam, who crossed over to Big Bang, she was the closest thing that Sheldon had to a friend, and remained an acquaintance for many years, eventually befriending Sheldon’s twin sister Missy.

Young Sheldon, the spin-off prequel series centered around the childhood of The Big Bang Theory character Sheldon Cooper, has recently concluded with 7 successful seasons. It explored the iconic Tbbt character’s past and shed light on several events that were hinted at in the main show.
Surprisingly, the prequel show took a big challenge when they introduced characters exclusively for the show who were entirely absent in Tbbt. However, most of the fans were shocked to realize that Dr. Sturgis was not even mentioned in Tbbt’s finale even after playing a key role in shaping Sheldon Cooper’s celebrated career.

What’s really great about the world of television is that it offers you so many different life scenarios that sometimes you forget it’s only fiction. Or on the contrary, the picture we see on screen is so far from reality you find yourself frustrated when a minor inconvenience enters your life.
The same goes even about TV friendships: they are either ideal, where every character is ready to do whatever it takes to make his friend happy, or they are really toxic. One of the brightest examples of such friendships is Euphoria’s Maddy and Cassie. The betrayals they went through destroying each other’s lives, while declaring unconditional love to each other before is just scary…

The Big Bang Theory owes much of its success to Jim Parsons’ iconic portrayal of Sheldon Cooper, making him a memorable character. The actor’s unique portrayal of the socially awkward character was combined perfectly with his physical comedy and witty one-liners. Sheldon Cooper became an endearing character, and fans were heartbroken when the sitcom show came to an end after 12 long seasons.

As a result, fans were thrilled when Young Sheldon was announced, featuring a budding Iain Armitage playing the role of a young Sheldon Cooper. The young actor brilliantly played the role of the socially awkward genius and made the viewers his fans. With the show all wrapped up after an emotional finale, Parsons was asked if he had any advice for the young actor, to which he gave an interesting reply.

After the fantastically perfect run of The Big Bang Theory for over 12 seasons spread across the course of almost twelve years, Young Sheldon began as a prequel spin-off in 2017, encompassing the life of a young bona fide genius Sheldon Cooper. But time goes by fast, and even this superhit spin-off has come to an end after its seven years of purely blissful run.

Needless to say, as much as the young Cooper managed to tug at fans’ heartstrings throughout the time his story continued, it didn’t hesitate to end on an incredibly emotional note that had fans crying their hearts out. And, ever since then, fans have also been showering showrunner Chuck Lorre with requests to create yet another spin-off, even if it’s only of Tbbt.

With the pilot written but nothing filmed yet at the time of this interview, Holland confirmed “Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage” will also introduce new characters.

Throughout Young Sheldon's run, those fans who were previously familiar with The Big Bang Theory knew that George Cooper, Sheldon's father, would die. However, seeing how many changes the writers made to the Cooper family dynamic, some people had a glimmer of hope that the show would end on a positive note.

The final episodes of Young Sheldon drew a big crowd for CBS.
The comedy ended its seven-season run Thursday night with 9.32 million viewers for its series finale, according to final same-day ratings from Nielsen (which don’t include streaming). That’s the biggest same-day audience for the show in four years — since its third season finale on April 30, 2020.
Young Sheldon ended with a pair of episodes, and the first drew almost as many viewers (9.15 million) at 8 p.m. Et/Pt as the 8:30 p.m. finale. The two episodes rank second and third in same-day viewers among all scripted series this season, behind only the post-Super Bowl premiere of Tracker. (Both episodes adjusted up from Nielsen’s preliminary figures, which had them at 8.82 million viewers for the 8 p.m. installment and 8.95 million for the finale.)

Young Sheldon went out with a bang. Or, should we say, a bazinga.
The Big Bang Theory prequel series wrapped things up on Thursday night, and the two-episode finale scored 8.95M viewers, according to live + same-day Nielsen data.
Not only was it the top broadcast of the night, it was also the most-watched episode of Young Sheldon in four years — since the Season 3 finale in April 2020. That episode managed 10.15M same-day viewers.
The finale audience is also pretty significantly above Season 7’s audience average, which is sitting right around 7M viewers per episode. Clearly, audiences were eager to see how things would end.
Streaming on Paramount+ was also up 39% over the week prior and 50% versus a year ago. It marked a season high for Young Sheldon, but Paramount didn’t give more specifics than that.

The Big Bang Theory is undoubtedly one of the most popular sitcoms of this century. It debuted in 2007 and ran for 12 seasons and 279 episodes until it concluded in 2019.

Interestingly, the show’s fate could have been very different if the original pilot, which did not include Kaley Cuoco’s character Penny, had not been scrapped. Cuoco’s inclusion may have saved The Big Bang Theory from being canceled in its first season, a fortunate turn of events for the beloved series.
Why The Big Bang Theory creators had to recast Kaley Cuoco?
In September 2022, The Big Bang Theory creators Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady sat with Entertainment Weekly for an interview.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers Young Sheldon‘s Series Finale Episodes.] Young Sheldon‘s long-awaited Big Bang Theory crossover with Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik has finally arrived in the series finale, and with it, some answers to previously dropped Easter eggs and more. While the penultimate episode focused on George Sr.’s (Lance Barber) funeral, the finale installment tracked Sheldon through two different periods of his life, in the days leading up to his (Iain Armitage) arrival at Cal-Tech, and a near-future set a few years after The Big Bang Theory in which he’s (Parsons) writing a memoir. As adult Sheldon pieces together memories from that time in the past, his wife Amy (Bialik) pesters him to get ready for their son’s hockey match, which he’s hesitant to attend. But there’s a full-circle moment to it all as Sheldon reflects on his own father and the positive things about him that he’d previously ...

You'll have to give me a minute, y'all. Young Sheldon's finale was even more heartbreaking than I expected.
Young Sheldon Season 7 Episode 13 focused so intently on George's funeral that it felt like mourning an actual relative who had passed away suddenly, while Young Sheldon Season 7 Episode 14 wrapped things up perfectly with a peek into the present.
These final two episodes dealt with heavier subject matter than you'd expect from the series finale of a mostly lighthearted comedy, but the ending made it worth it.
The Grief Made Sheldon's Character Clearer
In those first painful moments, after learning his father was dead, we got more insight into Sheldon's mind than ever before.
These scenes could have easily relied on tired TV tropes, but they avoided that trap and were refreshingly original because they were entirely from Sheldon's point of view.

Young Sheldon’s fans are surely having quite weird days right now given the bittersweet feeling everybody has about the show’s finale set to be released on May 16.
While it still comes as a tearful event as Young Sheldon’s lovers are approaching the moment when they have to say goodbye to the beloved series, at the same time the final episode is something to be really excited about now that it officially marks Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik’s first appearance in the prequel.
With all the sweetness of the long-awaited reunion between two versions of the eccentric character, Young Sheldon’s finale still might jeopardize the whole franchise’s reputation even more.
Though nothing so far is clear about how exactly Parsons and Bialik will make their entrance in the prequel, Young Sheldon may still potentially wrap it all up with another big plot hole.

In contrast to other forms of media, video games like Borderlands 3 are usually frowned upon, especially by parents who have kids always glued to their screens. Likewise, there have been many arguments over the years stating why the world of gaming is not what people usually perceive it to be, but none might be as convincing as this recent one, where gamers were able to assist a science research, thanks to a minigame.

Borderlands 3 was released for players to enjoy back in 2019, and soon witnessed the addition of a new mini-game mode called “Borderlands Science“.

At this point, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Mariska Hargitay are almost synonymous, as one cannot exist without the other. While Hargitay will likely be fine career-wise once the show is over, Svu will not survive a single season without its 25-year-old leading lady on set.
While some fans feel that the show that has lasted so long can just wrap it up and become a nice distant memory, others want it to reinvent itself in a different version. And considering how much NBC makes off of Dick Wolf's franchises, that is a very realistic possibility.

Cancelations suck, and the 2024 season has been particularly brutal.
Long-running favorites such as Station 19, Blue Bloods, and Young Sheldon are going off the air, leaving fans brokenhearted -- and actors out of a steady gig.
Sometimes, actors land a new gig right away, and other times, they struggle to find new work. The cancellations were recently announced, so not everyone has had the opportunity to move on to a new project yet, but there are some interesting things in the works.
Having a Long-Running Series is a Double-Edged Sword
When actors land a gig that lasts for half a decade or more, they're guaranteed work for as long as the series lasts.
That allows them to become household names but also can make it harder for them to get new jobs in the future. For example, Henry Winkler was so associated with The Fonz that when Happy Days ended,...

The Young Sheldon series finale is coming up. While many fans and cast members weren’t ready for it to end, the series looks to do one very important thing in its finale. Throughout the series, The Big Bang Theory fans complained that many things were inaccurate in the prequel’s story. There is a good reason for that.
Here is how Young Sheldon will explain all the inaccuracies in the show compared to what fans knew from The Big Bang Theory.
Young Sheldon Finale Will Explain Inaccuracies From Big Bang Theory

The Young Sheldon finale is coming. In a surprising move, Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik will appear for the first time in the series. Parsons played Sheldon Cooper in The Big Bang Theory.

Bialik has also done some voice-over, but also never physically appeared. That all changes with the finale and CBS revealed how this will happen.
