- Jim Parsons comes out in news article
We just “discovered” BBT near the end of last season, and have spent the summer catching up on the DVD’s. Jim’s Sheldon is one of the most consistently funny characters on TV, and I’m glad to see his work recognized. He truly carries the show, although the rest of the supporting cast is great too! Also, having recently watched both seasons on DVD, I will definitely disagree with anyone who says the character has not grown and changed in his own quirky way.
He looked skinnier than normal.. gaunt.. is he healthy?
I thought the same thing! Good lord, he looked emaciated. He’s too young to have that crepelike skin on his neck when he turns his head. Something is wrong.
Dear Ausiello,
Did you guys have a moment during the interview?
I hope it doesn’t become the sheldon show. His character can be kinda of a jerk. During his speech I realized why it so easy for him to play a character who is not imterested in woman at all.
You didn’t know before the interview? Huh.
Oh Jim Parsons. Just when I thought I couldn’t love you more…. I was so nervous for him last night. I literally had a knot in my stomach.
Im so relieved he won! He deserved it He’s a brilliant brilliant comedian.
Steve Carrell should have won the Emmy…
I am soooooo glad that Jim Parsons FINALLY won his well-deserved emmy last nite!!!!
He does the best he can with what he is given. The show is really not that funny. Though, after seeing him on stage twice last night, it appears that Sheldon is much more like Jim Parsons than I thought.
P.S. Aushole only really likes him because Parsons is gay.
Big Bang cracks me up. I think Jim’s win was well deserved. I look forward to the new season.
I was so happy to learn that Jim FINALLY won the EMMY!!!He definetly deserved it!He seems to feel awkward whenever he has to answer questions about Sheldon’s sexuality! So, there’s gonna be touching with Amy..hmm..Well I like the fact that Sheldon dates someone, even if that someone is a mirror image of himself! And I’M so HAPPY that PENNY is affected by that!!! Damn it! I really want to see the SHENNY happening at the end!!!!SHELDON AND PENNY ARE MEANT TO BE!!
