Kaley Cuoco is revealing what it was like filming sex scenes on The Big Bang Theory after breaking up with co-star Johnny Galecki.

The 34-year-old actress appeared on Dax Shepard‘s podcast Armchair Expert where she talked about dating her 45-year-old co-star at the start of the sitcom.

“We dated really early on for almost two years,” Kaley shared. “When we did the pilot, I was crushing so hard on Galecki but he had a girlfriend.”

The Big Bang Theory first premiered in 2007, with Kaley and Johnny playing on-off couple Penny and Leonard. They first started dating in 2007 before splitting in December of 2009.

“We got together and just fell mad for each other for two years, but then we broke up,” Kaley added. “Luckily Johnny and I came out of it so brilliantly and we’re closer today than we ever were.”

However, after they split, Kaley began to suspect that show creator Chuck Lorre was adding more sex scenes in for their characters.

“When we broke up obviously it was a little sensitive for a minute, but I remember those weeks that Chuck had written these episodes where all of a sudden our characters were like sleeping together every other second,” Kaley said.

“Johnny and I talk about it and I think [Chuck] did that on purpose — just to f–k with us,” Kaley continued, laughing. “If I was with him, I would ask him because that came out of nowhere. All of a sudden these characters were all up on each other.”

The two have remained close since The Big Bang Theory wrapped in 2019. Kaley recently celebrated her two-year wedding anniversary with husband Karl Cook. Johnny has been dating girlfriend Alaina Meyer since 2018 and welcomed a son with her last year.

Jim Parsons is opening up about the final season of The Big Bang Theory.

After the May 16th series finale, the 46-year-old actor who played Sheldon for the past 12 seasons, talks about leaving it all on the table for the final season.

“I played the s—t out of that character, and some people could have done it longer probably—I don’t mean our show, but this relationship with the character,” Jim shared with Variety. “But I feel like we really wrung that material for what it was.”

“No matter how successful you are,” Jim continues, “even if you’re a huge success in movies, you don’t get to check into the same parking space for 12 years. This is not how someone in a creative profession normally gets to behave. Most human beings crave that structure, so I can see how it causes some hurricanes in the heart.”

Following the emotional series finale of The Big Bang Theory on Thursday, the cast of the beloved CBS sitcom joined Stephen Colbert on The Late Show!

Kaley Cuoco, Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kunal Nayyar, Mayim Bialik, Melissa Rauch and Simon Helberg all hit the stage on Thursday night (May 16), where they dished on the show coming to an end, answered questions, and shared some secrets about their time on set over the last 12 years.

One of the funniest moments came when Colbert‘s questions came “from an anonymous member of the group, for the entire group.”

“Did anyone ever have sex in their dressing room?,” one cast member fessed up before both Cuoco and Nayyar pointed a finger at Galecki. “You must have,” Cuoco and Nayyar said as Galecki slowly raised his hand.

Jim also talked about how the writers were under enormous pressure as they worked on the series finale: “You can’t get it wrong, because it’s yours – you’ve been writing it all this time,” he said, then adding, “Think of it this way, you can’t get it right! Someone’s going to hate it. We’ll find out tomorrow.”

Kaley Cuoco was this close to not being on The Big Bang Theory!

During a recent interview promoting the last few episodes of the hit comedy series, the 33-year-old actress revealed that when she first auditioned for the role of Penny she didn’t get it because producers thought she was too young.

“I didn’t get [the original role called Katie] the first time around,” Kaley shared via Cinema Blend. “I was too young, which I love saying because I don’t get to say that I’m too young anymore. Then, a year later, I heard they were doing it again, and they brought me back in to read for Penny.”

When the show first premiered back in 2007, Kaley was only 22-years-old.

The Big Bang Theory will end with an hour-long episode on CBS on Thursday, May 16.
