That's funny. Too bad the show stopped being funny around season 6. Except here and there, like the casino scene. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

In three days, the chubby kid from Stand by Me (1986) is going to play the adult George (Sheldon's brother) in two episodes Courtney will be back for only one episode Now that there are 22 episodes of Young Sheldon, they can start feeding plot lines from the prequel into TBBT instead of just the other way around. |

Pacomartin Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 1068 Posts: 12569 | Of CBS shows that were renewed from last year, the only two that are increasing viewership follow TBBT on Thursday night. +16.82% Mom (renewed) +7.30% Life in Pieces -0.02% The Big Bang Theory (renewed) -1.91% Elementary -2.71% Hawaii Five-0 (renewed) -5.77% Code Black -7.22% Bull (renewed) -7.71% Man With a Plan -7.73% NCIS: New Orleans (renewed) -10.76% MacGyver (renewed) -10.99% NCIS (renewed) -12.86% Blue Bloods (renewed) -15.99% Kevin Can Wait -17.78% Superior Donuts -21.46% NCIS: Los Angeles (renewed) -23.25% Criminal Minds -23.67% Ransom -25.33% Madam Secretary (renewed) Bull is the highest rated show that is no losing viewers at too high a rate. Of the eight new shows, four have already been cancelled and only Young Sheldon is a hit. Millions of Viewers 12.561 Young Sheldon (renewed) 8.009 Instinct 6.971 Wisdom of the Crowd (cancelled) 6.754 SEAL Team (renewed) 5.948 SWAT (renewed) 5.293 9JKL (cancelled) 4.962 Me, Myself & I (cancelled) 4.208 Living Biblically (cancelled) So while the $5.3 million combined salary of the seven principals, and total production costs over $10 million per episode seems like a lot compared to roughly $3 million in advertising revenue, to a big extent most of CBS success on the air is tied to the show. While Instinct has a promising start, it has already lost 30% of it's audience by the 5th episode. If Young Sheldon is still the biggest hit show less than five years old next year, I think they will pay TBBT actors almost anything to return. |

Pacomartin Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 1068 Posts: 12569 | We finally meet the adult George Cooper. I have to say I miss some of the edginess hat was in Two and a Half Men in the final season. The writers don't want to veer to far away from sweetness in TBBT. |

DRich Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 51 Posts: 4969 | Is it public what type of residuals the cast get from reruns of the show? At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |
