The Big Bang Theory fans rejoice: Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik have just revealed on their social media accounts that they will be reuniting for an “exciting” project.
Though the duo will not be returning to the screen as their much-beloved Big Bang Theory characters — Sheldon Cooper and Amy Farrah Fowler — they revealed that they are currently working together on an all-new series entitled Carla.
According to Variety, the actors signed a deal with Fox for a multi-camera comedy show set to launch in fall 2020. The pair will also serve as executive producers.
Bialik, 43, has also been cast as the leading lady of the show, Carla, who is described as a 39-year-old woman coping with the turmoil of everyday life while running a car café somewhere in Louisville, Ky.

The former co-stars concluded their longtime run on The Big Bang Theory back in May as the 12th and final season of the smash-hit “nerd” comedy came to its emotional end.
Thorn added: “Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik coming to Fox Entertainment is obviously an enormous part of that equation.”
As reported by Deadline, Darlene Hunt will also serve as an executive producer and the main writer on the show. The series will be based off Miranda Hart’s original BBC series Miranda (2009-15).

Bialik continued: “We could not be more excited to work together and bring you this show which features so many cats!”
