Given that The Big Bang Theory aired 279 episodes during 12 seasons, it only makes sense that strict rules needed to be followed behind the scenes in order for things to run smoothly. As we're going to reveal in the following, that was especially the case when it came to the production of the show and lines written by the writers for the cast.

We'll take a look at a key rule the four were following throughout the series. In addition, we'll reveal a request Johnny Galecki pitched for the appearance of his character Leonard on the show, and how he was able to get the okay for it despite initial pushback from those behind the scenes.
