Up until now, Cheers held the record for the longest-running multicamera (live audience) sitcom in history. Today, The Big Bang Theory began working in its 276th episode and they are now the title holder. A title I am sure they will be holding for as long as Cheers did, which is 26 years, or maybe longer.
I wonder if Jim Parsons knew they would be in the record books when he gave his notice in August?
Either way, congrats to TBBT!
