Many of the fans that saw Mayim Bialik’s tweet were unaware of the news that The Big Bang Theory was renewed for two more seasons earlier this year.
While the show is set to march on into its 11th and 12th seasons, Mayim Bialik and her co-star Melissa Rauch, who portrays Bernadette Rostenkowski, held out for more money. The original five cast members – Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki, Kunal Nayyar, Simon Helberg, and Kaley Cuoco – already signed contracts with the studio. However, Bialik and Rauch wanted to rake in extra cash for what will likely be the final two seasons of the sitcom.
While Bialik did not respond directly to her followers that were mistakenly freaking out about the show ending, other fans made sure to reassure everyone that Big Bang Theory has two more seasons coming.
@missmayim Mayim! You just sent me into panic mode thinking BBT wasn’t renewed! Bad girl!
