Despite The Big Bang Theory’s popularity, CBS is actually losing the rights to air the episodes in syndication.
Still, the series was a staple on the Eye Network for over a decade and was honored during the Emmy Awards last month, though CBS boss Kelly Kahl did admit that The Big Bang Theory “deserved more respect from the Academy.”
The series finale re-aired on the network in September for the last time, and because CBS’ rights to the show have expired, don’t expect the series to reappear on the network anytime soon.
