2014 is fast turning out to be the year of new ends. After CBS pulled off its super hit series "How I Met Your Mother" off air last month, it's time for another telly favorite "The Big Bang Theory" to face the ax, it's buzzed.

The popular sitcom that has run for 10 seasons no might end this year.

"I'm going to move forward along with [co-creator] Chuck [Lorre] that 10 is the end unless we're told otherwise," showrunner Steve Molaro told The Hollywood Reporter.

"These are decisions that are so far away I can't really even think about that. I have no choice but to move forward … it's so far away…The mindset is it's going to be the 10 and then we'll see what happens after that."

Not only do the new episodes deliver huge ratings, but even the reruns on CBS and in syndication regularly outperform new offerings from other networks. It's indeed a rarity in today's ratings ecosystem.

All three stars—Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting and Johnny Galecki— have a contract with the channel uptill season 10.

"Comedy is a big part of our schedule, and The Big Bang Theory is the biggest comedy force on television," Nina Tassler, Chairman of CBS Entertainment, said in a statement when The Big Bang Theory's renewal was announced in March 2014.

CBS has been focusing majorly on Thursday night football games that has put the show in a limbo. However, it's unlikely for CBS to sideline its highest-rated comedy on TV until November.
