The cast and crew of "The Big Bang Theory" have wrapped up filming for the series' Season 10 run. Stars Kaley Cuoco and Mayim Bialik took to social media to share photos from their last day on set.
Cuoco shared a photo with her co-stars on her Instagram account. "Humbled, grateful, happy, thankful, emotional, and excited are just a few words to describe how I feel right now... oh and I love this group of people," Cuoco captioned the photo.
The final episode of "The Big Bang Theory" Season 10 will air on May 11 on CBS. The episode will have Riki Lindhome playing Dr. Ramona Nowitzki, Sheldon Cooper's former crush. Her return will pose a threat to Sheldon and Amy's relationship.
Meanwhile, "The Big Bang Theory" has been renewed for two more seasons, easing away fans fears that the show would end after the current season. According to TVLine, "The Big Bang Theory" secured a two-season renewal with 48 episodes.
Renewal negotiations for the show between CBS and producer Warner Bros. rested on Mayim Bialik, who plays Amy Fowler, and Melissa Rauch, who plays Bernadette Rostenkowski, who were seeking a salary raise as co-stars Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Johnny Galecki, Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar are receiving $1 million per episode. Bialik and Rauch, on the other hand, were only pocketing $200,000 an episode.
It was reported that Parsons, Cuoco, Galecki, Helberg and Nayyar volunteer to cut their per-episode fee by $100,000 to allocate enough money for Bialik's and Rauch's raise.
Variety recently reported that Bialik and Rauch are set to finalize their contracts with Warner Bros. The two actresses have signed on for Season 11 and 12, and this time they will be paid $500,000 per episode.
Bialik and Rauch joined "The Big Bang Theory" in Season 3 and have since become integral characters on the show as love interests to Sheldon Cooper and Howard Wolowitz, respectively.
Even after 10 seasons, "The Big Bang Theory" remains the top-rated comedy show on TV. "The Big Bang Theory" Season 11 is expected to premiere in September this year.
