More than eight years after it started, showrunner Steve Molaro says he is not sure if the show will continue post next season, said The Hollywood Reporter.
"I can't speak to the future or on behalf of the cast or where we'll be then but it's certainly possible that it could go past that. The reality is that maybe season 10 is the ending point.
The real answer is I don't know and all I can do right now is go episode to episode and try to make each one the best that we can. There's still so many episodes to go. Even if hypothetically season 10 was the end, I wouldn't be focusing on that yet. That seems like something that would be dealt with way down the line," Molaro said.
"I never imagined nine (seasons) and here we are. I'm not going to presume to know how many years this has because it's ridiculous for me to guess. It's already gone beyond my wildest dreams so anything beyond this... As long as everybody is having a good time and we're making a show we're proud of ...Then it's worth continuing," he said.
"Big Bang Theory" is primarily centered on five characters living in Pasadena, California; Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper, Penny, a waitress and aspiring actress, aerospace engineer Howard Wolowitz and astrophysicist Raj Koothrappali.
