And it all started with a big bang…BANG! You probably know Kaley Cuoco, Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Simon Helberg, and, others if you sang the theme song of The Big Bang Theory.
Working for 12 seasons together, the cast had developed quite a relationship while working with each other. After the show was over, the cast was asked about their first impressions of each other.
What The Cast Thought of Kaley Cuoco
In 2007, The Big Bang Theory premiered and the world fell in love with the two adorable and socially awkward scientists and their equally extroverted neighbour Penny.
From character developments to shenanigans and scientific breakthroughs, the cast of the American sitcom stayed together through thick and thin. However, their initial meeting was quite iconic.
In an old interview with EW, the cast of The Big Bang Theory sat to talk about how 12 seasons had passed and the show had ended. During their talks, Johnny Galecki (who plays Leonard Hofstadter) talked about his initial thoughts about Kaley Cuoco (Penny).
We all thought Kaley was the coolest person in the cast. As soon as we were done with rehearsals or the live audience, she was like taillights. We all assumed she had much better social plans than we did.
He further continued,
Maybe a year in, she started spending more time with us offstage and confessed she had nowhere to go. She was maybe going to ride her horses, probably.
Well, the line does seem like something that Penny would say to Leonard and Sheldon after months. However, Cuoco found her group with The Big Bang Theory as the cast started hanging out off-stage after the show.
From dinners to spending vacations together, the cast of The Big Bang Theory grew closer and closer together. Naturally, it was hard to say goodbye to these amazing characters after the show ended.
Kaley Cuoco Owes Her Career To The Big Bang Theory
Cuoco has starred in quite some iconic projects after The Big Bang Theory ended including The Flight Attendant, The Man From Toronto, and, Role Play. However, the actress has only one show for which to be thankful.
As the interview continued, Kaley Cuoco talked about how she found fame due to The Big Bang Theory. It was this iconic show that gave her a chance and shot her fame to newer heights.
I’m going to owe all of my career to this show. No matter what I do after this. This is what made us who we are. We were here for 12 years. This is a big part of our career.
Cuoco found love and fame from around the world after the show ended as the actress headlined the iconic series The Flight Attendant which received overwhelmingly positive reviews and critical acclaim.
The actress was last seen in the 2024 film Role Play which received average ratings. On the other hand, The Big Bang Theory received a rating of 8.1/10 on IMDB and a whopping 81% on Rotten Tomatoes.
