"TOMORROW night is [Big Bang Theory] night," the caption read. "you won't wanna miss this."

Cuoco told Extra that the special, which she co-hosts with Galecki, was a request from showrunner Chuck Lorre, who "wanted us to do a behind-the-scenes episode about taking you behind what goes on at 'Big Bang,' and our crew, what makes the show tick."

"Should be a great little behind-the-curtain...and it was a way for Johnny and I to say goodbye," she explained.

Prior to the promo, Cuoco gave fans a glimpse at a dinner she attended with those involved in the show, sharing a photo of herself and a number of her castmates sitting in a booth at a restaurant.

"I'm thrilled with [Penny's] ending, yet beginning," the 33-year-old told Entertainment Tonight.

"There's not anything catastrophic, it's just beautiful," she continued. "And the characters are gonna live on in your minds and in your hearts, and I think that's what is so special about it. It's really touching."

As for filming the finale itself, Cuoco called the experience "perfection."

"Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better night. It was a beautiful night," she said. "The script was fantastic, the audience, it couldn't have been better...It was perfection and a memory I'll have for the rest of my life."

"I'm thrilled with the final episode, and I think fans will be thrilled with it," she added. "I'm trying not to be biased, but it's one of the sweetest finales I've ever seen."
