Considering how popular "TBBT" was in its heyday, one would think that fans would be clamoring for more. They're definitively not, though.
In the same thread, u/sexandliquor wrote, "Why would God smite us like this?" u/EllaFitzsharolder had a similar take, saying, "What if instead we chose not to." Some, though, had suggestions about where the show could go — and things they definitely didn't want to see. u/Amazed_and_Bermused had an idea: "If they're sticking with the Young theme, I vote for Penny or Leonard. The little stories about Penny's past were always intriguing to me, and if Young Leonard gives us more Christine Baranski in any capacity, sign me up!"
Replies were decidedly split on a spin-off featuring Leonard's mother, though; even though their relationship is played for laughs, there's no denying that Baranski's character is pretty abusive towards Leonard. In a follow-up by the same writer, though, they admitted they could be wrong. "But honestly I don't think it'll be "Young" anything," u/Amazed_and_Bermused wrote. "But just PLEASE no spinoff for Howard."
