Vanity Fair recently published an excerpt from “The Big Bang Theory: The Definitive, Inside Story” by Jessica Radloff, focusing on what Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco (alongside some of the other cast and crew) had to say about the real-life romantic relationship that came about on the set of the sitcom. When detailing what it was like for them on set post-breakup, Cuoco noted that she and Galecki started noticing an uptick in intimate scenes between their characters.
Cuoco said, “All of a sudden, we started noticing there were extra makeout scenes for our characters, and/or sex scenes. I was like, ‘I think [co-creator] Chuck [Lorre] is f****** with us!’ We were convinced. Convinced!” While noting that it made sense for the character, Galecki added that it did seem that these types of scenes were showing up a bit too often.
However, on his end, Lorre said that nothing of the sort occurred, citing there was no time for messing with his actors within the time restraints of making a sitcom. Lorre continued, “There’s no ‘Let’s mess with Kaley and Johnny’ … But I think that’s charming that they think we had the mental capacity to mess with them. Penny and Leonard having difficulty sustaining a relationship was one of the reasons to keep watching — to see if they could make it. You were rooting for them to find happiness.”
Galecki and Cuoco then lightheartedly admitted that it was probably a bit self-involved for them to think that over all this time. Galecki added that he can rest easy now, knowing the truth.
