One detail about the recently announced spinoff of The Big Bang Theory is already an encouraging sign for the show. With the possibility that the prequel Young Sheldon could be ending after season 7, the universe of Big Bang Theory will continue with a planned series for the recently revamped Max streaming service. The upcoming show will be from Chuck Lorre, creator and executive producer of TBBT, and it will be set in the same universe.
During the April 14 episode of THR's podcast TV's Top 5, co-host Lesley Goldberg talked about The Big Bang Theory spinoff and mentioned that the project was an idea that Lorre came up with himself. Rather than Warner Bros.

So this isn't executives at Warner-Discovery going to one of their most prolific creators and saying, 'Hey, we have streaming rights to Big Bang Theory on Max. It does really, really well. Can you make an original show for us?' That the actual idea, I'm told, came from Lorre, who approached Casey [Bloys] with it.
What Could The Big Bang Spinoff Be About? Given the general shape that spinoffs tend to take, it's possible that the upcoming Big Bang Theory continuation falls into one of three categories or even that it combines a few. The first is that it would center around entirely new characters, focusing on the children of Leonard and Penny, Howard and Bernadette, and Sheldon and Amy. The original TBBT characters could return as supporting characters or in minor guest roles.
The project could ultimately be an expansion of Young Sheldon, which follows the rest of the Cooper family. But regardless of what the idea turns out to be, it's good that it was pitched by Lorre. Although the financial incentive is always an important consideration when it comes to continuing a hit franchise like The Big Bang Theory, it sounds as if there will be a strong foundation to build on.
