- Legendary writer/producer Chuck Lorre — co-creator and executive producer of hit CBS comedies The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon and Mom, as well as the upcoming Netflix comedy The Kominsky Method — is well-known for expressing his thoughts and views through personal messages in the split-second vanity cards which appear at the end of his shows.
- Tonight, Thursday, November 8, following the CBS telecasts of The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon and Mom, Lorre celebrates the landmark 600th edition of his irreverent and sometimes controversial end-of-show vanity cards.
- Two versions of the 600th edition of Lorre’s end-of-show vanity cards will air on Thursday, November 8: version 600A after The Big Bang Theory and version 600B, which will air after both Young Sheldon & Mom.
- The cards can be viewed here: https://bit.ly/2DacyA3 [5]
- For more than 20 years, and on his six popular broadcast sitcoms — The Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men, Mom, Young Sheldon, Mike & Molly and Dharma & Greg — Lorre has devoted exactly one second of airtime per show to expressing his deepest thoughts at the end of the credits on his now-infamous vanity cards. The entire collection can be viewed online at www.chucklorre.com [6].
- Lorre compiled select cards into a book, released in 2012, titled What Doesn’t Kill Us Makes Us Bitte [7]r. All of Lorre’s proceeds from the sale of the book benefited many health care–related charities and educational efforts, including the Venice Family Clinic.
- In its 12th and final season, The Big Bang Theory airs Thursdays at 8/7c on CBS. Young Sheldon, currently in its second season, airs Thursdays at 8:30/7:30c on CBS. Mom, now in its sixth season, airs Thursdays at 9/8c on CBS. And The Kominsky Method premieres on Friday, November 16, on Netflix.
