      avery lo Yeah whenever te camera lingered on the interviewer's face, you could almost see cartoon hearts floating around. Very funny.
      As far as his accent goes, as a North Easterner, he always sounds like he has a southern accent, or a Texas Drawl, but since his speech pattern is so precise, in real life and in character, it doesn't make him sound stupid, as (I'm really sorry, but it's true) as a southern accent can sometimes do.

      And to think Chuck Lorre et al. gave Johnny Galecki first dibs on 'Sheldon.' Fortunately, Galecki had the presence of mind to insist that he was bettered tailored for 'Leonard' -- and the rest is history.

  • @user-nl6md8pu6y
    @user-nl6md8pu6y Před 9 lety +11

    It makes sense that Bazinga became a phrase because of Jim, his method acting is so thorough as a cynical obsessive that when he showed enthusiasm saying 'bazinga' it gave him a small amount of charisma or the feeling that in that moment at least he was content.

    Holy hell.... As I'm watching this I'm thinking " this interviewer wants to jump Jim in his "spot" ". It was awkward as hell to watch him flirting and Jim just being normal trying to ignore it. I went to the comments section and low and behold I'm not the only one thinking this guy has pictures of Jim all over his house. Creepy

    It's beautiful- one of the small details that makes life achingly beautiful- noticing someone's affection for another in a way that is unexpected, unedited, unpredicted. Just pure unfiltered emotion of being struck by the beauty of another.

    *This interview is ripe for fanfiction.*
    "I turned something on, but I'm not sure it was the Texas accent." Jim croons.
    The interviewer raises his eyebrows, chuckles. "I think you're getting there."

  • @atomicsnowflake

  • @kaitlinmanske8745
    @kaitlinmanske8745 Před 10 lety +20

    What's funny is he doesn't realize it... but some of the way he talks is EXACTLY like sheldon. It's the way he phrases things and the words he uses, but that also means he is a lot more intelligent than many people, he had a lot less umm's than most actors!

    • @justinhardt1
      @justinhardt1 Před 10 lety +4

      Just because you can talk without pauses, or um's, does not mean that you are intelligent. At all. I'm finding a hard time understanding how your logic suggests that, when there are numerous examples of intelligent people who have speech impediments and disorders. Stephen Hawking being the best example.

    Great interview. Jim seems like such a nice guy. Also, well done on his character as Sheldon, it is just so impressive and believable. Imagine how tedious must have been to remember those lines! Ouch! I was shocked that he's 40, because to my eyes, Jim is early thirties. Love the show, love all of the crew members, great job! Oh and you know what, this show doesn't turn your brain into mush, makes you think every once in a while.

    Couldn't think of any actor who would have played Sheldon better. Jim Parsons is the only perfect fit for Sheldon. The way he's still humble amazes me too on top of his impressive acting skill which is too hard. I mean memorizing long complex scientific lines and delivering it in one breath to make people laugh? Jim is so talented!

    Those were some really great questions to ask.
    He does a great job as Sheldon. The rest of the characters are rather cliche and I suspect in the future will be forgotten, but he is just so over-the-top that he has become iconic and very popular.

    Without Sheldon there would be no Big Bang Theory love him or hate him. I did find the intervviewer rather creepy and I think he made Jim Parsons uncomfortable by the look on his face.
