Unfortunately, Lorre may not have any choice but for The Big Bang Theory Stuart spinoff to be on Max. Previously, reports were claiming that it could either air on CBS or the aforementioned streaming service. However, with Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage already on network TV, the next The Big Bang Theory offshoot will have to be on a different platform to be released simultaneously. While Young Sheldon and its parent series were both on CBS for two years before The Big Bang Theory’s end, those shows complemented each other. This time, these new offshoots won’t have any story connection.
There are also instances when a TV franchise will have multiple shows on at the same time. However, this is more geared towards procedurals such as NCIS, FBI, One Chicago, and Law & Order. While there’s technically nothing stopping Lorre from putting The Big Bang Theory Stuart spinoff on CBS, this established broadcasting format means that it will have to be on Max. Hopefully, however, the streamer gives it time to actually prove itself.
