Jim parsons emmy which episode

This was the actor's fourth time winning the award, for which he has been nominated six consecutive times. With his previous wins in , and , Parsons joins a small group of actors who have won this award four times: Michael J.

In the episode, Sheldon faces a personal crisis when he feels he's wasting his time with string theory. After some soul searching Sheldon settles on starting a new chapter in his career. With some encouragement from Penny, Sheldon toasts his new beginning, only to end up drunk and needing Amy to put him to bed.

He didn't knowmuch about Willson, who created his "own little talent factory, pumping out those milk-fed all American hunks with quick names like Rock, Guy and Tab," Parsons says.

That included the kind of sexual harassment that has cost several contemporary Hollywood power players their jobs with the rise of the MeToo movement. In "Hollywood" and in the real industry at that time, casting-couch behavior was rampant, although Willson likely was judged more harshly because he was gay, Parsons says.

Murphy thought Willson was just the role to set Parsons on a dramatically different path after "Big Bang. Jim is a brilliant actor and I think so many people just think of him as Sheldon. Mary Tyler Moore, when she finished her sitcom, went and did 'Ordinary People,' America's sweetheart suddenly becoming America's villain," Murphy says.
