Deceiving the actor with no film in camera sounds extreme, but I suppose every production is different. Sometimes actors come up with new or better lines. Off top of my head, Brad Pitt apparently came up with the line "what's that smell" when he died at the end of Fight Club. The Big Bang Theory cast described the set as a "sandbox" where they tried different things, but I suppose a TV series has different production methods.
