Private Practice, Big Bang Theory are Sticking Around

Oct 19 2007 - 11:56am


Hope you're ready for more of the Oceanside Wellness treatment: Private Practice has been picked up for a full season. [1] The CBS comedy The Big Bang Theory [2] will also be with us at least through the spring.

They join Gossip Girl [3] as the only new series to get full-season pickups so far. Networks typically only order 13 episodes of a new show so they can see how it does before promising it a time slot for a whole season. CBS also filled out a full-season order [4] for third-year show The Unit.

Both Big Bang and Private Practice have made their mark on the ratings: Practice has gotten about 12 million viewers each week since its premiere and is the No. 1 new show among adults 18-49, while Big Bang has gotten more than 8 million viewers each week and consistently does better than its lead-in, How I Met Your Mother.

Do you think those shows have enough steam to stick around for a full year?
