Jim in The Hot Seat

[hahnsrockstar]

An interview with Time Out New York

I’m certainly not as odd in my own physical presence as Sheldon is, but in many ways I don’t identify with Tommy. I’m not quite as comfortable in my own skin as he is. I think he’s just responding more naturally and, frankly, probably leads with his loins [Laughs] in a way that I don’t think I do on a day in,

This is a wonderful interview! Thank you for finding it and bringing it. The quote you include is funny, and revealing, but so was this: "It’s a beautiful experience to be going through those things [hearing the audience sob] with that large of a group of people - I really believe that."

I'm so happy for him that he gets this acting break from Sheldon, and gets to portray a character at the other end of the spectrum where he's allowed to resonate with his natural emotional sensitivity.

What I really enjoyed about this interview is the insight we get into Jim from his discussion of Sheldon and Tommy.

Thanks so much for posting! What a lovely interview. It's wonderful to see him so happy an proud of this new and different thing that he's doing. I agree that he gets to reveal so much more of himself and his own emotions in the process, and we, as his fans, get to reach a few more layers deeper. This has really been an unexpected treasure both for him and for us.

thank you so much for this. I loved every question of it, Jim seems very comfortable talking about his personality when it comes the time of talking about Tommy... With Sheldon it wasn't like that because the character it's not so emotional as Tommy is, so...

Thank you much for this, realy. Each time I read something like this I feel happier for him.

I was pleasantly surprised about how much of himself he revealed in the interview. It was lovely.
