  • In 2010, Jim Parsons was fresh off his first Emmy win for the role of Sheldon Cooper in the mega-hit CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory (he now has four Emmys to his name). He sat down in the red chair to talk about that win, dealing with the show's popularity - and sneaking into the movies as a kid.

    This guy is the best interviewer I have seen. How come I have never heard of him before? His questions are spot on, he lets the guest have his time answering each question. No side-games or a band or whatever to fill in time. Genuine conversation, genuine questions. Respect

      George has always been fantastic at interviews. He used to interview some pretty hardcore metal and alternative bands back in the days of MuchMusic on TV and he managed to appeal to everyone, not just diehard fans. He's down to earth, does his homework, and is one of those people who can just naturally connect with a wide variety of people.

      Blue Sky HD It's because he's Canadian, and Canadians are generally very personable, and genuine.

      I just happened upon this interview, never having heard of George Stroumboulopoulos. I was struck by the intelligence of his questions. He leaves most of the American interviewers in the dust.

    George Strouboulopoulos is a very professional interwiewer, his questions are smart and he lets time to answer each question, and Jim Parsons is so smart, so interresting, likeable, when he told his childhood memory he is so adorable, Chuck Lorre had make such a good choice, Jim Parsons is the only actor in the world who could paly an insensitive, self-centered, jerk character like Sheldon and making him so touching!

    Doesn't hurt that he's Canadian, like this SK farm kid

    k, so this is a way to interview someone as well, I see. Didn't know it was possible, felt so good to experience this! I've seen a lot - and I mean a lot - of interviews with Jim, never seen him this inspired. Finally a conversation that doesn't start with "do you have fun on the tbbt set" or "what's your favorite episode".... :)

  • @parrotsplace

    J.Parsons - an AWESOME, STUNNING ACTOR - one of the MOST TALENTED ACTORS I'VE EVER SEEN.
    I TRULY HOPE he will not "finish" with the "BBT" series and - HONESTLY! - if HOLLYWOOD WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE HIS POTENTAL AFTER HE FINISHES "BBT", THEN I'LL STOP WATCHING MOVIES.
    What's most STUNNING is that he is FOURTY, and he looks almost like a teenager! :D

    First time I've ever seen this interviewer (I'm not American and don't live there so I only occasionally watch US talk shows) and he is unquestionably better than Letterman, Conan O'Brien, Craig Ferguson or even Ellen (and I like Ellen a lot). He should be as famous as they are.

      I don't perceive Sheldon as an evil character. In fact he is a very nice person. It is simply alienating to function on such a higher level than those around you yet be devoid of the social skills necessary to relate to your peers. Advanced placement courses are notorious for producing those results. People constantly perceive you as speaking down to them or believing yourself to be so much better than they are when the thought has never even crossed your mind. It can be infuriating because nothing you say nor any modification you may make to your personality ever seems to make it up to them. First impressions truly are very important as people rarely allow you a true second chance. :/
