After working lengthy hours collectively for years, all of it simply involves an finish, and the artistic households of solid and crew are scattered to the winds. On a sequence as long-running as “The Massive Bang Concept,”

which went on for 12 seasons

and simply as a few years, saying farewell actually needed to harm, but it surely was made all of the extra painful as a result of it was so sudden. The present was nonetheless wildly standard 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 sequence with out Sheldon at its middle. 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 Massive 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 have been simply blindsided that day. And never essentially shocked by Jim’s resolution, however that he hadn’t had that dialog along with his castmates first to arrange us. So sure, it may 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 little bit burnt out on “The Massive Bang Concept,” particularly since Galecki and Cuoco had dated in actual life and broke up alongside their characters. It is also comprehensible that they felt disregarded of the choice to finish the sequence. In the long run, the whole lot labored out, and the solid moved on to different initiatives, however issues have been very tense among the many previously tight group for some time.

Whereas it looks as if “The Massive Bang Concept” may have stored working 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 carried out 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 initiatives that made filming a sitcom troublesome, so “The Massive Bang Concept” would have possible ended with season 12 it doesn’t matter what.

It might have been good for Parsons to debate his emotions and plans along with his co-stars earlier than deciding to depart and thus ending the present, however truthfully, that sounds precisely like one thing Sheldon would possibly do. In actual fact, the entire ordeal sounds just like the type of drawback the gang would possibly cope with on “The Massive 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 sequence “Younger Sheldon,” however he discovered it uncomfortable and bizarre and doubtless will not reprise the position a lot once more. Oh properly, at the least we’ve 12 entire years of geeky gags and “Bazingas” to take pleasure in.
