WARNER BROS. HOME ENTERTAINMENT RELEASES 

THE BIG BANG THEORY: THE COMPLETE EIGHTH SEASON

ON BLU-RAY^TM and DVD SEPTEMBER 15, 2015

Includes All 24 Episodes from the Eighth Season of the Most-Watched Entertainment

Series on Broadcast TV Plus All New Special Features!

BURBANK, CA (June 16, 2015) – As the most-watched entertainment series on broadcast TV, The Big Bang Theory continues to capture the hearts of viewers and critics alike, with original episodes averaging more than 21 million Total Viewers per week during the 2014-2015 season.  Now fans can relive all of the laughs of one of the best seasons to date when Warner Bros. Home Entertainment releases The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Eighth Season on Blu-ray and DVD September 15, 2015 for and includes all 24 hilarious episodes plus all-new extras including 4 featurettes as well as the show’s 2014 Comic-Con panel in San Diego. The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Eighth Season is also available on Digital HD.

The Big Bang Theory — which was already renewed for two additional seasons on CBS — revolves around two genius roommates Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper who remain socially challenged, but always produce hilarious results with their friends. With Leonard finally engaged to girl-across-the-hall Penny after countless proposals, the possibilities for happiness seem endless…while the probability for laughs is a foregone conclusion. What’s unknown is how this might impact the ironclad “Roommate Agreement” he’s entered into with Sheldon. Add to this, Sheldon’s uncomfortably close relationship with neurobiologist Amy Farrah Fowler; Raj’s newfound ability to talk to and date women; and Howard and Bernadette’s solution to an in-house caretaker (their friend Stuart) for the always outspoken Mrs. Wolowitz, and the worlds of science and sitcom are about to hilariously collide!

“Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is thrilled to bring all the laughs of The Big Bang Theory to Blu-ray and DVD with the release of The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Eighth Season,” said Rosemary Markson, WBHE Senior Vice President, Television Marketing. “With The Big Bang Theory being the #1 show across broadcast television and a best-seller in home entertainment, fans can now add all the delightful moments of this memorable season to their collections.”
