So here we are, folks. It's time to say goodbye to one of television's most iconic shows, The Big Bang Theory. Ending a long-running series is always tough, but it’s also an opportunity for greatness. Some shows, like MASH and Newhart, went out with a bang—literally. Others, like Seinfeld and Smallville, left fans scratching their heads or feeling underwhelmed. And then there's The Sopranos, which ended with a sudden cut to black, leaving everyone wondering if their cable had gone out. Now it's The Big Bang Theory's turn, and fans are buzzing about how the show will wrap up its 12-season journey.

Everyone's curious about how the writers will bring this beloved series to a close. Luckily, the main cast—Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, and Johnny Galecki—have shared their thoughts with Entertainment Weekly, and they all seem to be on the same page about one thing: the elevator.

Let's hear it from Jim Parsons himself: "The elevator. Definitely. That’s one of my wishes for the final episode. I’d love for the elevator to get fixed, at least for a minute, and then maybe we get stuck in it again." Now, that’s a classic Big Bang Theory moment right there. It’s quirky, unexpected, and perfectly in line with the show’s humor. Plus, it’s a nod to one of the series’ most infamous running gags.

Kaley Cuoco Weighs In: A Perfect Finale?

Kaley Cuoco couldn’t agree more. When asked about the idea of fixing the elevator, she said, "It would be a great show ending for me." You can almost hear the smile in her voice. It’s not just about the physical object—it’s about the symbolism. The elevator has been a constant source of frustration and hilarity throughout the series. Fixing it would be a way of tying up loose ends while still maintaining the show's unique charm.

Johnny Galecki's Emotional Take

Johnny Galecki is all for the elevator idea, but he’s also thinking about the emotional weight of the finale. He knows that when they tape the last episode, there won’t be a dry eye in the room. "None of us are going to be able to keep from crying during the last taping," he says. "We’ve got to justify it in the writing somehow." That’s a tall order, but the Big Bang Theory writers have always been up to the challenge. They’ve managed to balance humor with heartfelt moments throughout the series, and fans are hoping they’ll do the same in the finale.

It’s no secret that this season was always going to be the last. CBS made the announcement back in late August, and the reason? Well, Jim Parsons was ready to move on. He’s been the heart and soul of the show as Sheldon Cooper, and if he’s ready to say goodbye, it’s time for everyone else to follow suit. That doesn’t mean there won’t be a future for the franchise. Rumors of a spinoff have been floating around, but nothing’s been confirmed yet.

What’s Next for the Finale?

Executive producer Steve Holland isn’t giving much away when it comes to the finale. All he’ll say is, "Everyone has such specific ideas about what they think the end of the show should be. We know what we are driving towards and where we want to land." And naturally, he’s not spilling any details. That’s understandable—spoilers can ruin the magic. But one thing’s for sure: the finale is going to be a big moment for fans and cast alike.

So, will the elevator finally be fixed? Will there be tears, laughter, and maybe even a little heartbreak? We’ll have to wait and see. But one thing’s certain: The Big Bang Theory will go out with the same mix of humor, heart, and intelligence that made it a household name.
