What The Next The Big Bang Theory Spinoff May Be About
WhenThe Big Bang Theoryended in 2019, it was surprising for its avid fans. Shortly before its cancelation, CBS had just expressed interest in renewing the show for at least one more season. As it turned out, the decision to pull the plug on the popular sitcom stemmed from Jim Parsons' disinterest in continuing his stint as Sheldon. By then,The Big Bang Theoryhad already expanded withYoung Sheldon,which was about to enter its sophomore year. Considering the franchise’s continued popularity, it shouldn’t be surprising that Lorre is looking to further expand it.
SinceGeorgie & Mandy’s First Marriageis already tied to Young Sheldon, The Big Bang Theory offshoot will likely be tied to the flagship series.
At this point, there are several possible choices for the upcoming spinoff. SinceGeorgie & Mandy’s First Marriageis already tied toYoung Sheldon,The Big Bang Theoryoffshoot will likely be connected to the flagship series.One of the viable options is a future-set showfeaturing the kids of the Pasadena gang. Secondly, Lorre can make up forRaj’s polarizingBig Bang Theoryendingby continuing his story via his own show. Finally, it can also be about a supporting character who never really got their due in the nerd-centric sitcom, such as Kevin Sussman’s Stuart Bloom.
Whatever thenewBig Bang Theoryspinoffmay be about, it has the luxury of being connected to two of the most popular comedies of the last several years. Aside from its story, another big question regarding the matter is where it will air.Initial reports said that it would be on Max, but subsequent developments claimed that it may be on CBS. Given the project’s current development status, it may be a while before any of these things get settled.
