Kaley Cuoco, Johnny Galecki to exit The Big Bang Theory?

The Big Bang Theory cast members Kaley Cuoco (Penny) and Johnny Galecki (Leonard Hofstadter) are reportedly planning to leave the series after the upcoming finale episode, as their contracts with CBS come to an end.

Meanwhile, the other main cast members, Jim Parsons, Simon Helberg, Kunal Nayyar, Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch are all open to continue with the show if CBS orders more seasons and the show creators wish to continue on.

Steven Molaro told The Hollywood Reporter that there could be more seasons after season 10. “The writers are still so devoted and on top of it, the stories that come out are still so much fun to play – there’s no drudgery aspect to this,” he said. Season 10 will premiere on CBS on October 27, 2016.
