For the first time ever, The Big Bang Theory reruns will be available on cable networks other than TBS, which has been the hit sitcom’s exclusive off-network home for more than 13 years. Paramount Global has made a deal with Warner Bros. for Big Bang to join Nick at Nite and MTV’s lineups.

Warner Bros.’ most recent agreement extension with TBS is believed to include a provision for the rights to become non-exclusive, allowing the studio to find another buyer. There will be no other carveouts, with incumbent TBS and Paramount’s Nick at Nite and MTV as the only cable networks to carry Big Bang for the time being. (TBS and Wbtv sibling Max remains Big Bang‘s exclusive streaming home.)

Big Bang has been the backbone of TBS’ schedule since its launch on the network, breaking rating records early on. It remains TBS’ flagship series.
