Series co-creator Chuck Lorre was asked about possible original cast cameos.
“I cannot speak to that,” he said to TVLine, adding, “That is a closely guarded piece of information that, you know… I’ve taken a blood oath regarding.”

“Is that your hope?” he asked, before finally teasing: “You’re going to love this show.”
