I think most of the comments are making her case. These people identify way to much with fictional characters. Kaley is NOT "the hot prize" Penny, Johnny is NOT "the good guy, underdog nerd" They are NOT the characters they play. So they dated, big deal so do a lot of actors who find themselves on a set 12-14 hours a day. It's called transference and it rarely ends in "happily ever after" once the actors themselves realize the other person is not the character they are playing. Kaley and Johnny finally realized after two years of secretly dating (which meant no public displays or interaction) that in real life Johnny didn't want to be out at a tennis matches, riding horses, or taking care of dogs, and Kaley realized she wasn't into Johnnys pastimes either. All they had was on the set. So they ended it. Period. Are they friends? Of course, but only after this show is over will we know for sure if this a friendship out of convenience (again long days on the set) or a real friendship that last beyond them getting together for dinner the night before some award or BBT thing.
