    Wish I still lived in Houston as I'd love to go ... Definitely one of my favorite shows on TV.

    I just started watching The Big Bang Theory a couple of months ago..didn't know he was a ROX fan...is he from Houston? I know his character is from East Texas..but didn't know he was really from Texas...

    I love that show & he really does make the show...even better now that I know he's a Rockets fan.

    We want penny!! We want penny!!
    I'm one that also likes his shirts like hayesfan, and the fact that his character is big on comic books. Thankfully, I don't know anyone like his character in real life.

    I found out she already has another party on Saturday night, and my wife isn't interested. It sounds like it would be a lot of fun, especially since Jim is a Rockets fan. Maybe I can talk her out of her other party tomorrow.

    He is from Houston, yes. Born and raised. And pretty much his favorite thing to talk about is The Rockets.

    Thanks! :) I really enjoy the show (though I will admit that I only watch it occasionally!)

    Edit: Also if he's a big Rockets fan why isn't he on here with us? :)

    I like Jim Parsons as much as the next guy, but you had a show in town starring Wallace Shawn???

    the big bang theory is one of my favorite shows, I always watch the show.
    I would like to meet him, and now I like him more because he is a rockets fan!
    If I lived in Houston I would go.

    My sister is acquainted with him. She and her husband had a band and used to play (I think) Rudyards on a semi-regular basis. She says Jim used to come in and see them. Her bass player used to flirt with him a lot.

    Oski: Wallace Shawn wasn't in the play; he wrote it. We're opening another play of his on May 7.

    pasox2: How kind of you! Sadly (and kind of embarrassingly) we don't yet have online donations set up. But we welcome donations by phone (713-522-2723) or mail (1540 Sul Ross/77006). And we'll have online donations going shortly after we get past the gala and our next opening.

    111chase111: What's the name of the band your sister was in? If Jim went to see them, I probably did too. Especially if they played Rudyards.
