Parsons is just a kind soul. You can feel his nurturing energy.

[JoobieLoobieSoobie]

I fell in love with this actor watching him on Big Bang. The biggest obstacle for neuro-divergent people is being recognized as just people. He made the character of Sheldon so easy to understand as a person, not a person with differences.

[peacekelly]

I love Jim Parsons. I first saw him on The Big Bang Theory playing Sheldon. I’ve seen him now in movies and so many other things he’s an amazing actor.

[radayeskanderov]

Parsons is so intelligent, polite, well spoken, more people like him, please!

[mellbenito]

I’m literally binge watching every season of the Big Bang theory now and Sheldon is easily one of my favorite characters, definitely a comfort show ❤

It was very sweet of Jimmy to offer to do that curtain intro for Jim. Dream come true.

[lady_bexy]

I love how often Jimmy likes to make things happen for people. Even famous people have things they would love to do and have dreamt of doing, this isn't the first time Jimmy has done something to make someone's dream come true. The fact that a simple 1 minute thing he could let someone do on his show to make a simple wish come true is special in talk show hosts. So kind of you, Jimmy, to let Jim Parsons do a curtain walk through.

I was in LA maybe six years ago and he pulled out in front of us in a mini cooper and used a hand signal to tell us which way he was going. My friends and I just stared at him lol. I have not seen anyone use a hand signal while driving ever in my life. Makes him seem that much sweeter.

[SuzyQ]

I Love You, Jim Parsons!
I can’t wait to see Spoiler Alert!

[captaincommonsense]

Jim Parsons is a wonderful actor. Very talented and down to earth. He looks tired, I'm sure he's extremely busy working long hours....I look forward to watching more of his work.

[marilyntaylor]

Jim Parsons is so different than the character he played in, "The Big Bang Theory" - it's amazing. Nice personality; great actor.

[hanginthere]

Seeing him here, this is why he is an amazing actor. He really can do everything. Such a talented actor.

[rollingr]

Jim Parsons just seems like an amazingly good person.

[davidsmith]

I always thought Jim was the heart of TBBT. His physical comedy, facial expressions mainly, is incredible. He can say more with just a look than most actors can with a line of dialogue.

[notetoself]

Jim is so charismatic. Gotta love him. 😊

[TheDivineMsM]

I don’t think anyone else could have played Sheldon and still made him like able. The sweet innocence that Jim Parsons brought to the role made the character not only tolerable but beloved.

[rubymars]

Love him! I’m glad I can still hear his voice in Young Sheldon!

[Elena_baby]

Wow man time flies, I haven’t seen this man in soo long

[zumbaem]

My husband and I are on the last 3 episodes 😩 We didn’t watch it when it was on tv, but bingeing it on Netflix….I could watch it all over again it is so good!!!!

[verikogurchiani]

He is very articulate. Always pleased to listen to his interviews
