Seeing how the cast negotiated a massive raise and it still kills in the ratings, it will probably be driven into the ground for 2 to 3 more seasons. They're clearly planing to make Stuart a regular and use him to create a Raj story arc.

 

I'll just quote myself here. It will drag itself along until the 9th season, much like HIMYM, before it mercifully decides to finish "on its own terms". Or more money gets throw at it for another season. Seinfeld turned down 110 million dollars in 1998(!) to make a 10th season of Seinfeld. I don't think TBBT cast will have that problem.

I miss the old big bang theory.  It no longer feels like the nerdy show it used to.  Now it is your standard.. One couple Married, One couple on and Off, One couple awkward, and One guy single formula.

This.

 

My sister says these last few episodes have been quite good... Just shows the audience they're aiming for :(.

 

Please give us back what used to make TBBT fun and quirky; not your dumbed down, cheap comedic cheap shot one liner show.

 

On the other hand, I've really been enjoying CBS's other ginormous comedy, Two and a Half Men. Because it's not trying to be something it isn't. It's a decent sitcom with not bad writing (as of late) and it knows it.

The best episode ever was on U.K. T.V. couple of weeks back, the one where they have thanks giving at Mrs Wolowitz's home.

 

I watched it 8 times and laughed my arse off even on the floor.

 

However, they are having a break again before channel 4 show the rest of series 7.

 

It just gets better.

 

Though I wish Howard had never got married, he and Raj are so husband and wife material.

 

Amy is nice looking, penny, not that nice looking and as for that goblin Bernadette, ew.

 

Zack is far too good for Penny and as for Sheldon and Amy, ''Sheldon tap dat arse d00d''.

 

Leonard gets (other than Penny) some fine looking gash, especially Alice, how and why, he is like a squinting Elf.

 

Rajesh, well I said it before, go propose to Howard.

They should rename it to The Sheldon Show because that's what it is now.

Show lost it's charm after the second season.

 

Yeah I have grown tired of the show, if it wasn't for Penny I wouldn't care

I only like there being Bernadette because her father is a laugh.

 

Otherwise, it got spoilt a bit when Howard got married.

 

The best episode so far was when Penny found out she was married to Zack, Zack is hilarious and smarter than he appears, thanks giving at Mrs Wolowitzs.

 

The episode was the cut off episode on CH4, last night they restarted the season, I recorded last nights episode and will be watching later.

 

I am glad they are running 3 more seasons.

Work on the eighth series of US sitcom The Big Bang Theory has failed to start on time, as the principal cast members fight for higher salaries.

....

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Parsons, Galecki and Cuoco currently earn $325,000 (?190,000) per episode and are seeking up to $1m (?584,000) per show.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
