There is nothing we like better than to cause a ruckus at an event with our favorite TV stars. And Comic-Con was no exception.

So when the cast of The Big Bang Theory stopped to talk with us, we had to start some trouble. Both Jim Parsons and Johnny Galecki are nominated for an Emmy in the Lead Actor category, so the question of which team Kaley Cuoco, Mayim Bialik and the others were on came up a lot. In the end, we all decided on a fairly reasonable solution. Plus, we got them to spill on next season, and just how they think that whole Raj-Penny thing will be resolved…

"I think the writers have a lot of writing to do!" Cuoco exclaims. "I don't know how they're going to get Raj (Kunal Nayyar) and Penny out of this situation." Not only are we waiting with bated breath to see what's going to happen with those two, the cast themselves are anxious to find out. "I'm excited to get the first script and see what happens with them," Melissa Rauch tells us excitedly.

As for other season-five storylines, Bialik made a suggestion that would surely make Sheldon blush. "She's not going to become an exotic dancer, but I'm just throwing it out there because who knows what could happen," Bialik laughs. Speaking of strippers...there's a nerdy wedding approaching! "I know they're going to be dealing with the [wedding] planning, and it'll be a fumbled mess the entire way," Simon Helberg reveals about Bernadette and Wolowitz's upcoming nuptials.
