pegcarr Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I have been going through my photos on New York, thinking about the show and was wondering if there was ever a time when there was not someone coming in late for AAoG so they couldn't use the Patti Lu Pone joke. Not being aware of her I finally got around to "googling" her to see why they used the reference and found out how topical this and the cellphone jokes were. Despite the link below they have been in the show from the start an d are very funnyhttp://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Jim-Parsons-Heckles-Late-Audience-Member-with-Patti-LuPone-Joke-20150714 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The show’s quick success comes as a surprise to no one, since sales had been strong from the beginning, and were bolstered by largely favorable reviews following the May 28 opening.

I wish a had his good fortune (my is down as of late). I swear if he wins a fifth Emmy, I will make it my life's goal to know what is the secret to his success.

phantagrae Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 This shirt reminds me of last summer when he was posting in IG almost every day--he wore that t-shirt in a couple of pics.

phantagrae Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I can't post from IG here at work, but there are a few lovely pics of Jim walking around in long black shorts (beautiful legs...) and that Puma jacket, and I guess Todd was with him, at least at some point, because there are a few of them together.

phantagrae Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I can't believe this... I was so sure he would get a nomination I could kind of see it if he got nominated but didn't win (some fresh faces), but to not even nominate him is kind of amazing.But I'm betting the awards will go to Transparent.

MadFede Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 It's just unfair that Jim isn't nominated... and, in my opinion totally absurd that the whole show isn't neither... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsTeller Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Maybe they felt he had won so many times it would not be fair to nominate him again so they took him out of the field. I will miss his speech as I always love them but best of luck to the nominees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_90's_generation Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 the only explanation i can find for it is that if Jim was nominated, he was going to be a the winner for sure- because imo there's just almost no competition... - so the only way for another actor to win was not having Jim nominated LOL nah, i really don't know why, but it doesn't bother me much tbh... he has 4 and nobody can say he didn't deserve each and one of them... and i'm thinking maybe, maaaaybe Jim doesn't care either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mphs95 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 No Jimmy nom. No TBBT as best comedy nom. Maybe Jim didn't submit this year so others would have a chance? He seems the type to do that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantagrae Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Is it my imagination, or are most of the shows/actors on shows that were not on the regular networks? I think Modern Family might be the only nominated comedy series that's on one of the regular broadcast channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the best PERIOD. On on another note. Has he completely given up IG. Not even seeing him liking pics. I really miss last summer. Sigh!

I really miss last summer. Sigh!Andy-90s, I so agree with you. At first, I was so upset. Then, I remembered what Jim has said a couple of times about a favorite lesson from a teacher: "if someone else wins, it in no way means that you lose." I think that's where he stands right now. I was upset primarily because I love his success, love that his career has blossomed. It always makes me feel better just knowing a person I admire so much is appreciated. I want the best for him. I think we all do. So, we move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsyR Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 My guess is that he is so busy giving this unbelievable performance in AN ACT OF GOD that he has no time to worry about Emmy nominations. And if he does, there are hundreds of us here on this forum who are more than willing to console him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
