How Emmy contender Kaley Cuoco made the leap from TheBigBangTheory to TheFlightAttendant
has been on TV for most of her life, including guest spots in the 1990s on such shows as “My So-Called Life,” “Northern Exposure” and “Ellen” . Her breakthrough was playing Bridget Hennessy, the daughter of TV icons John Ritter and Katey Sagal’s characters, on the ABC series “8 Simple Rules … for Dating My Teenage Daughter” — but then came Cuoco’s Big Bang.
Ask the “Friends” cast: Sometimes it takes a while to find that next big thing. That’s why I’m more than a little impressed that Cuoco jumped right in after wrapping “Big Bang,” challenging herself by both executive producing and starring in HBO Max’s standout series “.
Also cracking open how to handle the show’s unique narrative — including the flashes in which Cassie speaks to her dead paramour and pieces together what led to his murder — was co-showrunner Steve Yockey. The two forged a strong partnership in figuring out how to bring “The Flight Attendant” to screen, and he calls Cuoco “a very instinctive producer. She trusts her gut. She’s been on television for basically her entire life and just has a feel for things. It’s fun to really dig in with her.
