Kaley Cuoco’s Show Canceled, but Reunites with Johnny Galecki in New Ad

by

In the ongoing development of the streaming spinoff of “The Big Bang Theory,” it’s comforting to see that the show’s renowned cast members are frequently reuniting in different realms. Yesterday, we found out that Melissa Rauch and Simon Helberg will work together again on NBC’s “Night Court.” In a coincidental turn of events, an advertisement surfaced online yesterday as well, featuring long-time friends Kaley Cuoco and Johnny Galecki, who have resided in Tennessee for years.

Regrettably, the joyful and unanticipated meeting of the actors who play Penny and Leonard was overshadowed by the disappointing announcement that Kaley Cuoco’s latest streaming project has been terminated. Let’s tackle this less pleasant news first before moving on to more cheerful topics.

Based On A True Story Canceled After Two Seasons

Prior to the cancellation of Kaley Cuoco’s suspenseful series, “The Flight Attendant,” at Max, she expanded her skills by joining Peacock for the podcast-driven comedy thriller titled “Based on a True Story.” This production starred Chris Messina, who was previously seen in “The Mindy Project.” The initial season premiered in 2023 and garnered sufficient praise to prompt a renewal for a second season just a few months later.

Generally speaking, Season 2 was generally well-received by both critics and viewers alike. Kaley Cuoco and John Messina’s characters Ava and Nathan, who were investigating whether a serial killer lurked near them, contributed to this positive reception. The season had an especially captivating finale that hinted at a potentially more dangerous third season. However, since NBCUniversal’s Peacock platform doesn’t usually disclose viewership numbers, it remains unknown how either season fared in terms of overall audience figures.

It’s unclear if those figures played a role in the streaming executives’ choice to terminate the series, according to Variety’s report. Additionally, Variety reported that Peacock has also ended Adam Pally and Steph Curry’s comedy ‘Mr. Throwback’.

It’s great to know that Kaley Cuoco hasn’t limited her career to just one fire, as in March 2025, it was reported she had joined another thrilling series called Vanished. In this show, she will portray a woman whose boyfriend mysteriously disappears during a train ride to Paris. As she uncovers more about him, the situation only becomes more complex and challenging.

Moving on from that piece of positive information, we continue our journey, though it might seem unusual, as a commercial for mobile games may not be the typical setting for a Big Bang Theory reunion.

Check Out Kaley Cuoco And Johnny Galecki’s New Ad

The ad is quite enjoyable, making it even more surprising that Johnny Galecki left acting after “The Big Bang Theory” ended. Despite this, it seems he wasn’t entirely disenchanted with the profession itself but rather chose to prioritize his family life. Given the limited filming schedule and the involvement of one of his closest former co-stars, it could be easier for him to accept projects like this.

It’s impressive how Dream Games and others behind the marketing of Royal Kingdom have managed to captivate older demographics with their strategy, possibly because they have more spending power for mobile games. While it remains to be seen if young players will go crazy over seeing Cuoco and Galecki together again, more players joining in is always a good thing.

This week, the company has been making a significant impact with its advertising efforts. Besides the highly anticipated “Big Bang” ad, “Royal Kingdom” also delighted “Friends” enthusiasts by releasing an advertisement starring Lisa Kudrow and Courteney Cox. Additionally, they’ve featured ads with LeBron James, Jimmy Fallon, Kevin Hart, Shakira, Sofia Vergara, and Amy Poehler as well.
