Jim Parsons is probably one of the most humble and respectful people I have ever heard of. He isn’t ashamed of his past roles and he is very happy with where he is at right now. Some roles really define a actor, and in Jim Parsons case it is Sheldon Cooper. He made that character. No other actor could be him.

Honestly, I can't even imagine the series having been as successful as it was without him being cast as Sheldon.
