Big Bang's Mayim Bialik Previews 'Complicated' Series Finale — WATCH

Thursday’s Big Bang Theory series finale (8/7c, CBS) is not all rainbows and unicorns, confirms Mayim Bialik, who tells TVLine, “It’s a complicated episode. Our writers are much more, like, intellectuals than what you would think of as comedy writers. They are complicated people, so there’s a lot of depth to this episode.”

The Big Bang Theory's Finale Will Have Even More Death and Nudity Than Game of Thrones

Quote

Seriously, though, The Big Bang Theory's series finale will be a big episode, a two-parter that will find the gang taking a big trip together as everyone finds out important things about themselves and each other.

I read that as Lenny’s with get nothing and the great and wonderful Sheldon will get it all.  Isn’t it nice that the insufferable ass gets all his dreams to come true.

I don't think their is anything to suggest the whole finalie well be all about Sheldon. IT was more a broad assesement of the finalie. Part of the synopsis says Lenny have a secret. So I am betting the finalie well send off all the characters equally. Their is no spoilers, or any specefic information to go off. So its pure speculation till Friday.

True  But hearing them say that not all fans will get everything they want is their way of saying "we are doing it our way and the hell with the fans"  Why can't they give fans what they want? Don't these two realize that the fans were the ones who supported TBBT for 12 years and without them they would not have a job. Sometimes their arrogance astounds me.

But the article related to Shamy not Lenny. not only that they are showing right now the episode where Leonard is donating sperm. Seems like a setup for Penny being pregnant. Also the YS finale is advertised as relating to TBBT.

Here is what Johnny said about the finale when he was on "The Talk" last week:

The Talk - Johnny Galecki on 'The Big Bang Theory's' Series Finale; It's 'wrapped it up in a beautiful way'

Quote

"[I'm] extremely happy, and of course, for years we've been pontificating and hypothesizing about how it could end. There have been so many brilliant finales of wonderful shows, and I think it was, I know it was, important to the writers that these characters live on together and these relationships, not that someone moves to Switzerland or something like that. I just think the writers nailed it. They really did... I was asked a few months ago what my top five favorite shows were, and it was kind of impossible to answer... The last three episodes are truly my favorite, they wrapped it up in a beautiful way. I don't think any fan will think, 'What the heck were they thinking.'"

I am reading it completely differently. That the over-sensitive, no personality what so ever, whiner that is Leonard will get everything he wants . They look blissfully happy in the pictures. Shamy, not so much.

There's no way they'll please all the fans in the world because there are millions of them. That's what any writer of such a popular series would need to point out.

Over sensitive whiner? I see it both fitting Leonard and Sheldon.

They sure will. Scientists who don't get a Nobel can win all sorts of other prizes they wouldn't otherwise be offered. ( Apparently, prizegivers tend to believe once someone's won a Nobel they'll see other prizes as beneath their consideration. ) So, either way, eventually Shamy will probably be highly honoured if not as well-known.

After the last few years, that would be truly funny, but I don't expect it.   Notice there is only one picture of Sheldon, and none of Amy in the episode 24 pictures (I still think that has something to do with her hair cut), so we really don't know what they may be feeling in that episode.

Are we sure Leonard is over-sensitive? He has been rather forgiving, considering Sheldon has weirdly abused his charity for so many years. Anyone remember Sheldon toilet scheduling Leonard? Inhumane treatment. Leonard has been meek and overly tolerant. He shared his cowdamn honeymoon with Sheldon for cows sake. 

Sheldon is not sensitive at all. That’s the core of the show’s premise.

Dracarys! Leonard. Light up the finale.

I believe we are all going to be pleasantly surprised.

I’ve purposely kept away from studying the photos of 23/24 for any clues of what is going on. It is giving me a bit of peace and helping me cope with “the end”. One thing I did pay attention to was Johnny’s statement that the last three episodes were special to him. He didn’t use those words, but it was clear he is moved by the ending, starting with his amazing and wonderful ending arc with Beverly. Johnny has always been a little aloof press wise. Not one to “blow smoke” (unless he has a cigarette 😳) on things like this. I trust Johnny G. I think we (I) will be moved.

Maybe the last 3 episodes are what meant with the phrase, going out with a bang!!
