It was announced that Jerry O'Connell will be cast in the series as Sheldon's brother, Georgie. Executive producer Steve Holland joked, "This is the first time it is being announced, so don't tell anyone."
Along with Holland, the panel included Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Kunal Nayyar, and producers Chuck Lorre, Steven Molaro, Steve Holland, and Bill Prady.
They also discussed their upcoming episode with Bill Gates, as well as showing a clip.
The cast also spoke about the death of Stephen Hawking. "I mourned his death like Kunal and like Raj - his presence was a character on our show", said Nayyar.
"It was frightening! He is the smartest person you are ever going to meet. It was a true honor. I always left the room fast before I said something stupid", said Parsons of working with Hawking on the show.
The Season 11 finale is said to feature the wedding of Sheldon and Amy.
