The “Big Bang Theory” prequel series is set to return on Feb. 15, with the one-hour series finale set to air on May 16. The season will be shorter than those before it due to the truncated nature of the 2023-2024 scripted broadcast season caused by the writer and actors’ strikes that shutdown Hollywood productions for nearly six months. “As a prequel to one of the biggest comedies, ‘Young Sheldon’ proved lightning can strike twice,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “It set itself apart with a remarkable cast that felt like a family from the first moment we saw them on screen and brought characters to life with unique heartfelt stories that drew audiences in from the start. We extend a sincere thank you to executive producers Chuck Lorre, Steve Molaro and Steve Holland and the entire writing and producing teams for six wonderful seasons. We look forward to seeing their final season unfold and giving it a proper send off with the best episodes yet for their fans to enjoy.” “Young Sheldon” originally premiered in 2017, while “The Big Bang Theory” wrapped up its run in 2020 after launching in 2007. source: Variety
