"After everything happened, we all got super tight. I can't deny it. We all just love each other. James Garner and David Spade came on and we fell in love with them too. We've just become a family all over again. We don't want to lose anyone again"
About this Quote
The context here is a long-running TV ensemble coping with loss, then trying to keep the machine running anyway. “After everything happened” functions like a shared scar: unnamed, but mutually understood. It’s also a protective euphemism, the way a group avoids reentering the trauma while still acknowledging its gravitational pull. When Cuoco talks about James Garner and David Spade “came on,” she’s quietly describing a high-wire act: introducing new people into a closed ecosystem without betraying the person who’s gone. “We fell in love with them too” isn’t fan-service; it’s permission. A reassurance to the audience and, more importantly, to the cast themselves that attachment isn’t disloyalty.
The line “family all over again” is Hollywood’s favorite metaphor, but here it reads less like PR and more like coping strategy. Calling it family raises the stakes and explains the fear: “We don’t want to lose anyone again.” Not just a lament, but an attempt to ward off the randomness of it by naming it out loud.
