At this point, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Mariska Hargitay are almost synonymous, as one cannot exist without the other. While Hargitay will likely be fine career-wise once the show is over, Svu will not survive a single season without its 25-year-old leading lady on set.
While some fans feel that the show that has lasted so long can just wrap it up and become a nice distant memory, others want it to reinvent itself in a different version. And considering how much NBC makes off of Dick Wolf's franchises, that is a very realistic possibility.
Does Svu Have a Spinoff?
Even though the spinoff to a spinoff isn't a very popular concept, Law & Order: Svu, which is now so popular that it almost stands alone next to the whole bunch of other Law & Order shows, won't be the first to try it. The CBS sitcom Young Sheldon,...

For the previous 6 seasons, Young Sheldon fans demanded that the show stick closer to the canon established in The Big Bang Theory. Looking back at how the newer show handled some of the characters and events, the changes they made ended up being for the better.
Unfortunately, however, the creators of Young Sheldon couldn't escape being tied to the original show forever. If there was one event that shaped Sheldon Cooper's adulthood, it was his father's death, and now, in the show's grand finale, viewers will see the final chapter of the Coopers' family life as we know it.

Cancelations suck, and the 2024 season has been particularly brutal.
Long-running favorites such as Station 19, Blue Bloods, and Young Sheldon are going off the air, leaving fans brokenhearted -- and actors out of a steady gig.
Sometimes, actors land a new gig right away, and other times, they struggle to find new work. The cancellations were recently announced, so not everyone has had the opportunity to move on to a new project yet, but there are some interesting things in the works.
Having a Long-Running Series is a Double-Edged Sword
When actors land a gig that lasts for half a decade or more, they're guaranteed work for as long as the series lasts.
That allows them to become household names but also can make it harder for them to get new jobs in the future. For example, Henry Winkler was so associated with The Fonz that when Happy Days ended,...

The first time Sheldon Cooper graced TV screens in 2007, the star who would carry on the character’s legacy wasn’t even born yet, but Young Sheldon’s Iain Armitage isn’t so little anymore as the star portraying a boy genius prepares to bid adieu to viewers and the role originated by Jim Parsons on The Big Bang Theory. “Big Bang came first, but it’s later in the canon of the series,” the 15-year-old Armitage notes. “It’s funny because, in a way, our end is their show’s beginning.” And while details surrounding the finale episodes remain secretive, Big Bang fans have a big crossover to look forward to with Parsons and Mayim Bialik reprising their roles onscreen as Sheldon and Amy for the first time since 2019 (Parsons has provided narration for the prequel since its 2017 debut).

Intentional Character Transformations in Young Sheldon Young Sheldon has carefully reimagined George Cooper’s character throughout its run, diverging significantly from the portrayal seen in The Big Bang Theory. This was not only a creative choice but also an intentional strategy discussed among the show creators and cast. Why George’s Death Was Handled Delicately In discussions about George’s fate within the narrative of Young Sheldon, Lance Barber knew from the series onset that his character would have to face the inevitable.

The Young Sheldon series finale is coming up. While many fans and cast members weren’t ready for it to end, the series looks to do one very important thing in its finale. Throughout the series, The Big Bang Theory fans complained that many things were inaccurate in the prequel’s story. There is a good reason for that.
Here is how Young Sheldon will explain all the inaccuracies in the show compared to what fans knew from The Big Bang Theory.
Young Sheldon Finale Will Explain Inaccuracies From Big Bang Theory
The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon are two very different shows. One of them is a sweet comedy-drama about a family trying to make it past hard times. The other is a more irreverent comedy about a group of friends often dealing with personal problems while making fun of each other along the way.
However, the connective device is Sheldon Cooper.

When Young Sheldon started, there were a few moments that fans expected to see before the show ended. One was Sheldon catching George Sr. cheating on his mom. Another was George Sr. dying. Finally, the last was Sheldon leaving home for Cal Tech. One of those moments just happened, and it was heartbreaking.
Here is what the producers said about why they let George’s death play out the way they did before the series finale.
George Sr. Dies On Young Sheldon
Big Bang Theory fans knew that George Sr. was going to die. Sheldon had mentioned how his dad died and often disparaged the memory of his father on Tbbt. His mother also slandered George after his death, calling him various names and making it sound like they were on bad terms when he died.
That is not what happened.

The last two minutes of Young Sheldon Season 7 Episode 12 were inevitable, but we still didn't see them coming.
This was one of the season's most positive, upbeat, and funny episodes... until it wasn't.
The reason George was absent from the family portrait was as shocking for viewers as it was for his family, and that was probably the point.
Death is never an easy subject to tackle, especially in generally more lighthearted series. Before the announcement that this would be Young Sheldon's final season, many viewers hoped that the producers would ignore the backstory in The Big Bang Theory and not include George Senior's death.
They couldn't do that and be the story of Sheldon's early years, though. His father's death is part of what makes Sheldon the way he is as an adult, so it had to be written into the prequel sooner or later.

Spoiler Alert: The following interview discusses events from the “Young Sheldon” episode “A New Home and a Traditional Texas Torture,” streaming on Paramount+ as of May 10.
We knew it was going to happen — since it was foretold on “The Big Bang Theory” — but that didn’t make it any easier to say goodbye to one of “Young Sheldon’s” original cast members. In the final moments in the second of two episodes airing back-to-back on May 9, the Cooper family received word that curmudgeon patriarch George Cooper (Lance Barber) had died of a heart attack.
The fate of George dying at this point in Sheldon Cooper’s journey does goes back to the “The Big Bang Theory,” on which we learned that adult Sheldon lost his father at the age of 14. That’s the current age of prodigy Sheldon (Iain Armitage) in the prequel series, and while producers had said this...

Leanne Morgan, the comedian whose stand-up special I’m Every Woman brought the down-home, relatable laughs, will become a sitcom matriarch now that Netflix has ordered 16 episodes of an as-yet-untitled multicamera series, in which she’ll star and serve as co-creator and executive producer. The scripted comedy series is co-created by Morgan and prolific TV comedy writer and producer Chuck Lorre (The Big Bang Theory), whose most recent project for Netflix is the Golden Globe–winning The Kominsky Method.
The as-yet-untitled project will kick off with Leanne’s life taking an unexpected turn when her husband of 33 years leaves her for another woman. The rest of the logline covers topics that will sound familiar to fans of Morgan’s stand-up: “Starting over when you’re a grandmother and in menopause isn’t exactly what she had in mind, but with the help of her family she will navigate this new chapter with grace,...

The Big Bang Theory may have been over for quite some time now, but its legacy keeps living on. By the time of the end of its television run, the original show was substituted with a not less successful sequel expanding Sheldon Cooper’s story and now Young Sheldon, the finale of which is coming out pretty soon, is already picked up by one more spinoff show putting its focus on different characters.
While The Big Bang Theory’s universe keeps growing to its fans’ rejoice, the new series coming straight from Young Sheldon’s storyline may in fact ruin it all if the creators still ignore the preceding show’s biggest flaws.
Young Sheldon starring Iain Armitage as the smaller version of The Big Bang Theory’s eccentric physicist Sheldon Cooper was initially launched back in 2017 and was quickly grasped by the original show’s fans.

Spoiler Alert! This story contains details from the series finale of Bob ❤️ Abishola on CBS.
The multi-camera comedy about an American businessman who falls in love with a Nigerian nurse wrapped May 6 in much the same way it kicked off in 2019 — with lots of charm and affection served up by its affable stars Billy Gardell and Folake Olowofoyeku.
Here, co-creator/EP/co-star Gina Yashere and EP Matt Ross talk about what went into crafting their sentimental Bob ❤️ Abishola finale, the show’s legacy and whether they regret using a heart emoji in the title.
Deadline: Talk about the decision to employ a time jump in the finale. Why did you do it?
Gina Yashere: There were certain stories that we started in previous seasons, like in Season 4 we’d ended on a cliffhanger. Is Abishola going to go to Johns Hopkins? And then throughout Season 4, we never really touched on the subject again.

Saying goodbye is always hard, but CBS just made it slightly easier.
The network recently announced that two Big Bang Theory stars will return to help close out Young Sheldon's series finale.
This news promises a fun end to the series that will connect it to its parent series while also opening the door for next fall's Georgie and Mandy spinoff.
Jim Parsons has been narrating Young Sheldon all along, but now he and Mayim Bialik are set to reprise their roles as the adult Sheldon and his wife, Amy.
Could this mean we get an explanation of why Sheldon has been narrating the past seven years' worth of episodes?
Sheldon doesn't have to be talking to anybody except the audience, of course. However, with him and Amy returning, there are two logical possibilities:

The Big Bang Theory owes its immense popularity not only to the talented cast and the compelling storyline revolving around four geek friends that have to navigate through life using their gifted minds, but also to the impressive list of guest stars that ever appeared in there.
And though Sheldon Cooper, portrayed by Jim Parsons, could’ve seemed to be extremely calm while sharing the screen with the biggest stars, the actor himself was pretty much affected by these situations.
Throughout the whole run of 12 seasons, the show’s main cast got to work with the pop culture and science’s legendary figures like Stan Lee, Stephen Hawking, Charlie Sheen, Bob Newhart and many others — but one movie star in particular made Jim Parsons forget how to breathe normally for some time.
As he revealed, sharing the screen with Star Wars’ legendary actor James Earl Jones got him a weird feeling.

The Big Bang Theory is an ensemble cast show where every character serves a particular point in the story. That’s why it’s impossible to say who is more important for the narrative, as without any of them the show would never be the same.
Of course, we could have lived without some of the side characters, even if by paying the price of leaving out many ridiculous storylines and funny scenes. But apparently, there were some people who we even didn’t notice being left out of the story.
The people we are talking about are actually Penny's friends, introduced gradually under different circumstances. However, as the story progressed, even Penny's few friends ended up in the void. But why? Is it really Leonard's fault?
Well, there are some fan theories that Leonard drove away all of Penny's friends, not in a brutal alpha-male way, but by...

The Big Bang Theory, a comedy sitcom about a group of scientist friends that deal with their love life and career achievements throughout the whole series, came to its end back in 2019 with a seemingly good turn of events for every main character.
And while most of them indeed showed up on the peak of their life in all aspects, one particular character’s storyline still seems to have been unfinished.
In the show’s finale Sheldon and Amy are a happy couple that receives the Nobel Prize in Physics after having worked together on super asymmetry, Leonard and Penny are expecting their first child and Howard also happily lives with Bernadette and their two children.

Until the end of its television run back in 2019, The Big Bang Theory has been a raving success watched by millions of devoted fans across the globe, but not everything in the sitcom was that successful — and fans have their point regarding one specific episode.
Episode 22 of season 10 was crashed by both critics and viewers, ending up with only 6.8 on IMDb and becoming the show’s significant failure that, in its turn, failed to show the main characters in a right way.
Season 10 finds Leonard and Penny stronger than ever after their hop-on/ hop-off relationships during the previous seasons. Here the characters are already married, yet Leonard still appears to have some trust issues towards Penny.
