Earlier this year, The Big Bang Theory was renewed by CBS for two more seasons — 11 and 12 — with the cast of the series also signed for two more years.

At TCA today, Big Bang star Johnny Galecki indicated that the show’s cast is operating under the assumption that Season 12 will be its last though the topic is not being discussed on set.
“The only manner in which the cast has discussed wrapping the show has been that we’re all going to be very sad when that day comes,” Galecki said following a panel discussion for the new CBS comedy Living Biblically, which he executive produces. “But I think at this point everyone’s very comfortable with 12 seasons being a good time to go home and see our families.”
