Jim Parsons

I have found a brand new method of getting through articles and textbooks and research papers for school: I just read them in Sheldon's voice! I can hear him in my head giving these lectures LOL.

 

Maybe Jim should read or narrate audio books for his next project. We would all be learning a lot of new things!

Hey I thought I was the only one that did that! Yay I'm not a weirdo  :icon_cheesygrin:  Works even better if you add in the sarcastic comments he'd be making while reading it.

They changed the first preview date of An Act Of God... May 7th instead of May 5th

 

I was wondering this morning if anyone around here actually had tickets for the 5th, or one of the early preview dates.  I know several are going later in the summer, but I was wondering who was going early.

 

Well, I hope the extra two days give him a little more time to prepare.  It would have been exactly 2 weeks from the last taping to the first preview if they'd opened on the 5th.  And he's got so many lines to learn, even though he's been working on them inbetween his TBBT scripts.

I hope he gets a nap in sometime soon! :p

I'm going on the 9th. I thought it was awfully close with the announcement of the angels plus all of Jim's commitments and the sheer amount of difficult dialog to learn to start previews on the 5th. Hope it doesn't get postponed again.

If he can get Sheldon down on 6 days, he can get God down in 7.

Maybe, whatever is going on with Mayim and her absence is causing a few delays to end of season filming?

 

I don't think so or else they would have moved the taping date.

 

I think that the two things are not related in any way except for Jim's involvement.

It might not even be about him, but about other issues with the production--technical things at the theater, the schedules of the other actors, etc.

Or it could simply be about giving Jim 2 seconds of down time between productions! :p

That hair! :p

 

I can't believe he only graduated in 2001!  I'd already been here, playing in the symphony, about 11 years by then.  Dang, that makes me feel old.  I finished grad school in 1985...

 

ETA: Apart from the hair, he looks almost EXACTLY the same as he does now...

I wonder what they will do with the tickets... I mean what about the people who were booked on the 5th and 6th? Are they gonna change just that or others too?

They will be offered the option of another date or a refund.  Disappointing if that was the only date you could make it.  He may be delayed because of the alumni presentation but he has been learning his lines for a while now.  I can't wait to see it .

So this is another thing on his plate--no wonder they had to push the previews back!

 

So he already taped the Grace Helbig thing yesterday, was it? then he has the finale taping next Tuesday, followed by this San Diego thing on Saturday, then I'm assuming he'll fly out to NYC to put on his robe and sandals. :p

 

I remember him saying in some interview that he hoped they weren't going to make him wear sandals because he hated them, but there was some article about the production where someone--the producer?--was saying something about him wearing sandals...

Okay. How in THE HELL does he look the same?? Fourteen years? I don't look the same after fourteen days! And I like the hair :-)!

ETA: And he didn't think he was cute enough for Todd?!

I was just remembering a moment from the taping--I don't know if any of the others saw this or can confirm it.

 

At one point when Jim was walking around chewing gum and reading his notecards, just before they went to tape the scene, it looked to me like he took the gum out of his mouth and stuck it to the top card and then put the cards somewhere in the kitchen, like on the counter next to the fridge, I think.

 

Now, I don't remember which scene this was because there were 2 scenes with the guys in the living room and 2 scenes with Penny and Sheldon in the apartment.  Before one of the Penny scenes is where he bit himself, and I don't remember what he did with his gum in that moment, but I don't remember whether he was chewing gum between scenes more than once.

 

I remember that before one of the scenes with the guys he stuck his cards under the seat cushion, so that wasn't where he had his gum.  Maybe it was after he bit himself.

 

I wish I could remember.  I don't know why I'm obsessed with that moment...
