Big Bang Theory’s Jim Parsons on the fight for Mayim Bialik and why adding Amy was such a brilliant decision

When it comes to sitcom novels, there have been a few delightfully nerdy couples that The Big Bang TheorySheldon Cooper and Amy Farrah Fowler, whose romantic weaknesses led to marital bliss, such as officiated by Star Wars legend of the hamill brand . However, such a positive fate was not expected when Mayim Bialik entered the series and, for a moment, it seemed that Amy was not. destined for the taking of virginity . But it looks like star Jim Parsons would never let the creative team lose the character, and he shared his thoughts on why he thinks adding Amy (and Bernadette) was one of the smartest decisions the writers have. have ever taken.

Arriving in stores two and a half years after the end of the CBS comedy series, Charm editor-in-chief Jessica Radloff new oral history behind the scenes The Big Bang Theory: The definitive story of the hit epic series explores all the curiosities and basic information of the twelve years on the air of the ever popular sitcom. In an excerpt from Amy’s future book after the Season 3 finale (via uh ), Mayim Bialik said she doesn’t plan on being scheduled for a long time given the one-episode-at-a-time booking structure, though former showrunner Steve Molaro said co-creator Chuck Lorre claimed to keep Bialik despite being “feminine”. Sheldon’s Factors of Comparison.

And as it turns out, there was a moment in Season 4 when Parsons decided he would step in to keep Mayim Bialik’s eccentric physique close. In his words:

I know at the audition they said they needed a female version of Sheldon, but in the long run it’s unsustainable. There was no choice but to evolve the character. And at some point in Season 4, I don’t know if something caused it or not, I remember saying to Todd, “I’m not letting this character go without a fight.” It was extraordinary for me, except that I almost never disagree with the writers. Mais à un moment donné, j’ai ressenti une certainine manière de travailler avec Mayim et j’ai pensé: “Si pour une raison quelconque, nous avions l’impression de la couper de cette série en tant que personnage, j’irais leur speak.”

Now, it’s unclear exactly how much Jim Parsons had to convince the show’s creative team to keep Bialik, but I like to picture him in 1930s Hollywood gangster mode, walking around offices and threatening occasionally. He almost certainly didn’t have to come to that, but it’s surprising to know that the big Bang the star has dedicated herself to keeping her new co-star close. Which foreshadows Parsons bring the actress into the fold during the establishment of the post-Be determined the comedy call me cat.

The future Hollywood star went on to say why he thought The Big Bang Theory adding Amy and Bernadette was very clever, especially the timing of everything. In his words:

I said that years ago, but I believe even more now that one of the smartest things the writers room did was introduce Bernadette and Amy at a time when, in terms of interest and story, we didn’t need them yet. . The authors didn’t let the well dry out before saying: Oh my God, should we adopt a baby? Should we bring a monkey? You know what I mean ? They connected these people to see what would work and how it would work, and I thought it was great.

Too often TV shows casually introduce new ideas at a time when the norm has become obsolete, but Be determined brought Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch to a time when things were already going well, which made everything fit together better.

For what it’s worth, Bialik says that while she wasn’t sure she would get on with the show beyond the early days of season four, it was more a product of her own thinking patterns. , unlike anyone else on the show. touch. inverted. Here’s how she said it:

The week I was offered a regular contract, I said to my manager: ‘I think this is my last episode; I think they are done with me and done whatever they wanted to do with my character. And that made me very sad. I told my manager about it and she called me later that day and said, ‘You won’t believe the call I just got. They would like to offer you a full position like a regular! [Laughs] For example, no one sent me secret messages; it was a completely self-generated fear that I didn’t fit in or anything. It was completely my own madness.

I can’t even imagine it The Big Bang Theory Season 10 would have been seen without Amy. Or what it would be like to watch young Sheldon not knowing it ends up with someone so aligned on the spectrum. Fortunately, such imagination is completely useless.

The Big Bang Theory is available to stream with a HBO subscription Max while the new book by Jessica Radloff is in stores around the world (opens in a new tab) October 11th. go to our Program of the first TV 2022 to see what new and old shows are coming up.
