漫长的等待让你胡子都长出来了?好消息现在来也不晚!近日，《生活大爆炸》("The Big Bang Theory")第八季通过了广电局审核，成为第一个拿到播放许可证的美剧。

　　7月22日，《生活大爆炸》第八季将在搜狐视频重新上线。届时，童鞋们可以继续通过正规渠道看到“谢耳朵”和他的伙伴们了。

　　2014年4月，广电局要求所有视频网站移除《生活大爆炸》、《傲骨贤妻》、《海军罪案调查处》以及《律师本色》四部美剧。一年之后，《生活大爆炸》卷土重来。但是其他几部美剧就不那么幸运了——因内容违反限令、鼓励青少年违法、传播暴力等原因没有通过审核。

　　网友对此反映不一。有些人欢欣雀跃，有些人则担心，审核时部分剧目内容被删减，不能保持原汁原味，而且比国外首播要晚了好几个月。

　　俗话讲，好饭不怕晚，《生活大爆炸》的粉丝们做好准备吧。

　　American sitcom “The Big Bang Theory” has become the first foreign TV show to be grantedpermission to stream on Chinese websites after the country's movie and television watchdogrequired all foreign TV shows to pass through a review.

　　SARFT removed “The Big Bang Theory” and three other U.S. TV shows from video websites in April2014 when it accumulated more than 1.3 billion views.

　　SARFT said some of the four TV shows failed to get its approval and violated regulations on havingcontent which hurt the nation's honor and interests, and encourage teenagers to break laws andspread violence, eroticism, gambling and terrorism.

　　In September 2014, SARFT issued a regulation requiring all foreign-produced TV shows to bereviewed before being allowed online in the Chinese mainland.

　　Some said the review process may take months for each show.

　　There were mixed reactions on Chinese cyberspace. Some netizens said they were eager to watchthe show, while others felt too many changes will be made to the original content.
