'The Big Bang Theory' Season 10 Release Date, News & Update: Johnny Galecki, Kaley Cuoco, Jim Parsons' Contract Negotiations Happening Soon? Cast To Demand Salary Raise?

"The Big Bang Theory" Season 10 cast, led by Johnny Galecki (Leonard Hofstadter) Kaley Cuoco (Penny), Jim Parsons (Sheldon Cooper) will reportedly negotiate new "TBBT" contracts with CBS soon. Given "The Big Bang Theory" success, Johnny Galecki, Kaley Cuoco, Jim Parsons and other cast members are expected to demand a salary raise.

"The Big Bang Theory" Season 10 was feared the end for Leonard, Sheldon, Penny and the gang as the contract negotiations had not been forthcoming. Although Kaley Cuoco, Melissa Rauch ( Bernadette Rostenkowski ) and Kunal Nayyar (Raj Koothrappali), as cited by Parent Herald expressed willingness to continue onto "The Big Bang Theory" Season 11 and further, CBS would have the last say.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, "TBBT" producer Steve Molaro optimistically said that "The Big Bang Theory" Season 10 would likely be followed by more episodes. However, the focus of "The Big Bang Theory" is to make each episode strong.

This is just as well as Deadline Hollywood reports that Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco and the gang will be offered "The Big Bang Theory" contract renewals. By the end of "The Big Bang Theory" Season 9, "TBBT" averaged 20 million viewers per episode.

This essentially puts "The Big Bang Theory" leads Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco and the rest of the cast in strong position to bargain their contract terms. Deadline Hollywood notes that Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco previously negotiated a $1 million per episode pay for "The Big Bang Theory."

The same is expected from Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco for their new "The Big Bang Theory" contracts. Hopefully, negotiations will not delay production for "The Big Bang Theory" Season 11 as they did for S8.

"The Big Bang Theory" cast are expected to make a splash at the 2016 San Diego Comic Con on July 20 with their very own "Star Trek" figures by retailer Entertainment Earth. "The Big Bang Theory" Season 10 premiere date is set for October 27.
