After working lengthy hours collectively for years, all of it simply involves an finish, and the inventive households of solid and crew are scattered to the winds. On a collection as lengthy-operating as “The Big Bang Concept,”

which went on for 12 seasons

and simply as a few years, saying farewell actually needed to harm, however it was made all of the extra painful as a result of it was so sudden. The present was nonetheless wildly widespread when it led to 2019, which left many followers scratching their heads and questioning why it was over, however star Jim Parsons, who performed neurotic nerdy genius Sheldon Cooper,

had merely had sufficient. 

When it got here time to renegotiate new contracts for the present transferring ahead, Parsons determined to not renew, surprising his co-stars as a result of creator Chuck Lorre did not need to proceed the collection with out Sheldon at its heart. This led to some laborious emotions between Parsons and co-stars Kaley Cuoco and Johnny Galecki, and in Jessica Radloff’s oral historical past e book “The Big Bang Concept: The Definitive, Inside Story of the Epic Hit Collection,” Galecki elaborated on simply the way it felt to be “blindsided” by Parsons’s resolution.

“I used to be shocked. We had been simply blindsided that day. And never essentially shocked by Jim’s resolution, however that he hadn’t had that dialog together with his castmates first to organize us. So sure, it might have been dealt with higher. We’re a household; have a dialog. And I do not even disagree with how Jim felt, as a result of in some ways, I felt the identical manner. I simply disagreed with the way it was managed.”

Understandably, everybody was feeling a bit burnt out on “The Big Bang Concept,” particularly since Galecki and Cuoco had dated in actual life and broke up alongside their characters.

Whereas it looks like “The Big Bang Concept” might have saved operating for years if Parsons had determined to stay round, it is unlikely that the present ever would have seen a season 13. Not solely was Parsons able to be executed with Sheldon Cooper, however Simon Helberg, who performed Howard, was additionally prepared to maneuver on and begin the subsequent a part of his profession. Everybody was feeling worn down and had began engaged on different tasks that made filming a sitcom troublesome, so “The Big Bang Concept” would have probably ended with season 12 it doesn’t matter what.

It will have been good for Parsons to debate his emotions and plans together with his co-stars earlier than deciding to depart and thus ending the present, however truthfully, that sounds precisely like one thing Sheldon may do. In reality, the entire ordeal sounds just like the sort of drawback the gang may cope with on “The Big Bang Concept” in a little bit of life imitating artwork. Parsons would ultimately return to the franchise to do some narrating and ultimately seem on the prequel collection “Younger Sheldon,” however he discovered it uncomfortable and peculiar and doubtless will not reprise the function a lot once more. Oh properly, not less than now we have 12 entire years of geeky gags and “Bazingas” to take pleasure in.
