‘Big Bang Theory’ to end in 2019

The smash hit CBS sitcom about nerds living eventful and successful nerdy lives is coming to end next year which came from a statement from Warner Bros. Television, CBS, and Chris Lorre Productions saying  “We are forever grateful to our fans for their support of The Big Bang Theory during the past 12 seasons. We, along with the cast, writers and crew, are extremely appreciative of the show’s success and aim to deliver a final season, and series finale, that will bring The Big Bang Theory to an epic creative close.”

The 12th and final season will debut on September 24th on CBS and it has been a consistent strong performer for the network. According to EW,  ‘Big Bang’ averaged 18.6 million viewers ( which outperforms NBC’s Sunday Night Football) and a 4.4 rating among adults 18-49.

The series which debuted in 2007, has earned 52 Emmy nominations and 10 wins. It also spurred a prequel series called ‘Yong Sheldon’ which debuted last year to some strong ratings.
