"This show has touched so many hearts," an emotional Kaley told the fans who were in attendance of the filming. She shared a comment made by series creator Chuck Lorre at a reading of the final script, "The Big Bang Theory will live on in our hearts forever." Johnny, who played husband Leonard Hofstadter to Cuoco's Penny, thanked the audience and called the top-rated comedy's 12-season run "a dream come true for all of us."

Jim, who starred as the awkward genius Sheldon Cooper, had a key fan in attendance, his mother Judy Parsons. The actor, a four-time Emmy winner for the role, looked relaxed and even broke into a few dance moves between shots.

Die-hard fans need not worry about anything as a part of the show will continue to live on through the spinoff Young Sheldon, which Jim is an executive producer of.
