The actress only had the best words for Helberg, describing his presence on set as “so incredibly special” before adding:
“We’re, of course, very close, and he’s family to me, so we’re very much in touch, butwe hadn’t been on set together since Big Bang Theory ended, and to be back at Warner Brothers together on that stage, it was emotional. I was very excited that he was there, but there was also just this sense of like, ‘Oh, wow, we’re getting to do this again and getting to be together.’ Andhe’s such an intuitive, right-there-in-the-moment-with-you actor, and it just felt like going home, getting to work with him again.”

“Since the show started, I’ve wanted to bring him onto the show, but I wanted to make sure that it was the perfect role for him. And then once we cracked what we wanted to do for the season finale,it was just the dream to have Simon in this. I called him, and he was so wonderful and was like, ‘I’m totally there.’ And he was just wonderful, as he always is. It was very much like, OK, once we knew what the storyline was, the melding of [Spencer] with Simon was just the perfect synchronization.”
