List of The Big Bang Theory episodes
The Big Bang Theory is an American comedy television series created and executively produced by Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady.
Like the name of the series itself, with the exception of the first episode—"Pilot"—episode titles of The Big Bang Theory always start with "The" and resemble the name of a scientific principle, theory or experiment, whimsically referencing a plot point or quirk.
The Big Bang Theory's eighth season is scheduled to premiere on September 22, 2014.[1] The series was renewed for three additional years in March 2014, through the 2016–17 season.[2] As of May 15, 2014[update], 159 episodes have aired.

Season 8
In February 2014, CBS CEO Les Moonves confirmed an eighth season, when announcing that the first half of the new season would air on a different night, due to CBS acquiring the rights to Thursday Night Football games. The show will return to its Thursday slot that it has held for the past few seasons once the football games end.[181] The series is scheduled to premiere on Monday, September 22, 2014, as well as scheduled to return to its previous Thursday time slot on October 30.[1]
Production for the season was expected to begin on July 30, 2014, however the start may have been delayed due to the five main cast members looking to renegotiate new contracts, with Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco seeking around $1 million per episode, as well as more backend money. Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar are negotiating together, separate from Parsons, Galecki and Cuoco's negotiations.[182] Production was officially delayed on July 30, due to the contract negotiations,[183] and was rescheduled for August 6, 2014.[184] On August 4, Parsons, Galecki and Cuoco signed new contracts, worth $1 million per episode for three years, with the possibility to extend for a fourth year. The deals also include larger pieces of the show, signing bonuses, production deals and advances towards the back-end.[21] The following day, Helberg and Nayyar renegotiated their contracts, giving them a per-episode pay in the "mid six-figure range", up from around $100,000 per episode they each received in years prior. Production was expected to begin on August 6, in order to fulfill the 24 episode season order.[21][185]
During the season, Sheldon's whereabouts will be revealed in the season premiere, Stuart will still be Mrs. Wolowitz's caretaker and Penny will abandon her plans of being an actress to be a salesperson at Bernadette's pharmaceutical company, which will cause problems between her and Leonard.[186]
Notes
