The Big Bang Theory season 8 will resolve the cliffhanger about Sheldon’s whereabouts sooner rather than later.

Sheldon seemed to take off on the train at the end of season 7 but whether he actually got on or not and where he went if he did has been the subject of much speculation.

His whereabouts will be revealed, new spoilers from TVGuide indicate, and he will return at some point. Also, he and Amy are good.

“I would argue that they do have their own weird brand of happiness right now. That kiss on the train is pretty indicative of that,” executive producer Steve Molaro said.

Elsewhere, Stuart will still be taking care of Mrs. Wolowitz while Penny leaves acting behind to be a salesperson at Bernadette’s company, causing problems between her and Leonard.

As for the wedding, it will take a while. 

“Penny’s first goal is to put the date far enough in the future so everyone knows she’s not pregnant,” Molaro said.

And Regina King will return as Janine Davis while a new comic book store will come into existence.

Big Bang Theory season 8 will premiere on Monday, September 22 at 8 p.m. EDT.
