The Big Bang Theory viewers were saddened to hear about the end of the twelve-season comedy show earlier this year. With the characters’ stories well and truly told, fans have been yearning for a new spin-off from CBS, or some sort of continuation in the form of a return to the characters. Many of the actors have gone on to welcome new projects and endeavours, including Mayim Bialik, who played Amy Farrah Fowler, Sheldon Cooper’s (played by Jim Parson) wife.
Mayim made her debut in the science show, and quickly became part of the regular cast members.
Following her incredible performance in The Big Bang Theory, fans have been wondering what she will be journeying into next.
Recently, Mayim revealed exactly that, as she appeared at Toronto Film Festival to discuss her next project.
Mayim’s new movie – titled As Sick As They Made Us – follows a divorced mother as she attempts to help her estranged brother visit their father who is on his deathbed.

According to Deadline, Mayim said at the festival: “Growing up surrounded by mental illness is not something that is easy to write about, nor is it easy to live through.
“The challenges ripple out into the lives of children immersed in these families even as they try to make their own lives apart from the challenges they grew up with.”
She then continued by discussing some of her own experiences on this topic.
Mayim went on: “After my father’s passing four and a half years ago, I decided to explore the complexity of mental illness and familial responsibility.
The publication explained this is to be the final instance of the show airing, barring any “future special events, reunions or a 2030 syndication deal”.
They went on: “It will be the last time #TheBigBangTheory airs on CBS.”
Fans in the US will be hit the hardest, unfortunately, as the publication went on to suggest The Big Bang Theory will also be removed from the CBS streaming service CBS All Access.
They wrote: “The finale and a handful of episodes of @bigbangtheory still on CBS’s website and CBS All Access will disappear on Sept. 22.
“The 2019-20 TV season officially begins the next day, and the Eye’s streaming rights will have expired. #BazingaByeBye.”
Fans of the show were utterly distraught, as one wrote on Twitter: “Bring it back there’s nothing worth watching anymore.”
Meanwhile other viewers suggested another streaming service – such as Hulu – ought to pick it up.
They wrote: “@hulu step up my man.”
The Big Bang Theory season 12 is available on CBS and All4.
