The Big Bang Theory season 12


The twelfth and final season of the American television sitcom The Big Bang Theory aired on CBS from September 24, 2018 to May 16, 2019.
The series returned to its regular Thursday night time slot on September 27, 2018 after Thursday Night Football on CBS ended.

Production

In March 2017, the series was renewed for an eleventh and twelfth season, running through the 2018–19 television season.
Unlike the previous two seasons, the first episode of the twelfth season aired on a Monday before moving to Thursdays following CBS' contractual rights to air the Thursday Night Football games moving over to Fox.
On August 22, 2018, CBS and Warner Bros. Television officially announced that the twelfth season would be the series' last. This stemmed from Jim Parsons' decision to leave the series at the end of the twelfth season if the show were to have been renewed for a thirteenth season.
