Jim Parsons Classic 2010 Interview on George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight

[@lt-rezzah7261]

This guy is the best interviewer I have seen. How come I have never heard of him before? His questions are spot on, he lets the guest have his time answering each question. No side-games or a band or whatever to fill in time. Genuine conversation, genuine questions. Respect

[@liquididentity101]

George has always been fantastic at interviews. He used to interview some pretty hardcore metal and alternative bands back in the days of MuchMusic on TV and he managed to appeal to everyone, not just diehard fans. He's down to earth, does his homework, and is one of those people who can just naturally connect with a wide variety of people.

[@wandamundy2990]

He's Canadian, eh ?!? Probably doesn't have anything on American TV . . .

[@FreemanHuman]

Wanda Mundy And why the fuck would he want too ?

[@klextro]

Blue Sky HD Canadian Television.

[@Frejborg]

Blue Sky HD It's because he's Canadian, and Canadians are generally very personable, and genuine.

[@peterdavies4306]

What a lovely guy! He comes across as very sincere, very humble, and just a kind-hearted individual. It makes me even happier for his fame and success. :)

[@dixonsusa]

He was so genuine and likeable. So likeable. Makes you want to see him do well.

[@dileep-kumar]

I love the way Jim looks down while speaking and then looking up slowly with brightness and sincerety. A child or man every family wants to have in life.

[@quistian]

Yes. I thought he would have had better eye contact.

[@vicusmaxima]

I couldn't stop watching him. Something about the air around him was nice. Especially when he told the childhood memory story.

[@harveymushmann1927]

Every interview I've seen, George has a way of directing conversations like no other.

[@crippleized]

Always said it. George is without a doubt the best interviewer out there.

[@nhpm900]

Julius Thomasson I just happened upon this interview, never having heard of George Stroumboulopoulos. I was struck by the intelligence of his questions. He leaves most of the American interviewers in the dust.

[@marlpiece7175]

wtf, this is the first time i've watched this interview and feel every second of it. i mean, the interviewer is very exceptional. his posture, his voice and the way he talks to his guest is just brilliant. it's just like he is naturally born to interview people.

[@maureenwagg5305]

I love Jim Parsons. His character of Sheldon is fun but Jim is a genuine sweetie pie. Love him. His mom has a lovely son.

[@katiemurphy527]

His eyes are so beautiful.

[@BikiniDeathSquad]

Such an awesome person. I'm happy for all his success. And....his 'Sheldon' character is immensely entertaining.

[@nhpm900]

Oh Jim, you're just the cutest, sweetest person:)

[@wilmanric2277]

nhpm900 Yes, he is. He's just precious.

[@isabelladesroches4119]

The perfect combination of host and guest. Love them both so much.

[@hubristicmystic]

George Stroumboulopoulos is a very good interviewer - great questions, lets Jim answer and Jim Parsons is a very eloquent and interesting interviewee :-)

[@yuki.arashi]

You deserve a nobel for being able to write his name correctly.

[@HasNoLIFE99999]

Marco Zaupa It's on the title of the video.......

[@michaelmurdoch9663]

+Rival Tarsier I think somebody has a superiority complex...

[@janegrainger3900]

Good interview like two friends who’ve know each other for years

[@orangeandyoghurt]

He seems so gentle.

[@JNeil1975]

Jim is just adorable......a total doll. I could just squeeze him!!!

[@Aviyaor]

He is a kick ass interviewer and that was a top of the notch interview. It is a total pleasure to see an interviewer so respectful towards whom he's talking to. Delight.

[@daisyjane4369]

Jim is such a joy to listen too.

[@bibiayeshahafeji2585]

Very original, unique questions and answers given as well...prolific interview! 👏👏👏

[@golestansalimbeigi1449]

I was just looking at his eyes my God beautiful

[@Cyruur]

Jim Parsons is very humble, holy crap o_o

[@nekochii00vlog]

Best interview I've seen in a while..... he knows what he's doing lol also Jim is adorable....

[@maripozacolorado]

George Strouboulopoulos is a very professional interwiewer, his questions are smart and he lets time to answer each question, and Jim Parsons is so smart, so interresting, likeable, when he told his childhood memory he is so adorable, Chuck Lorre had make such a good choice, Jim Parsons is the only actor in the world who could paly an insensitive, self-centered, jerk character like Sheldon and making him so touching!

[@karenalfano7808]

Currently, my favorite actor....I love that they are celebrating smart people in this show as well...I worked 15+ years in academia, so these characters are so real to me. :-)

[@EnzoPasq]

Great interview, thank you. It's good to see the person behind the character.

[@Mrskateboardboy]

George never seems to do a bad interview. Jim Parsons came across well in this interview.

[@tattooedheart101]

i love jim parsons... he seems to be a pretty smart guy..

[@ladygodiva9294]

I love how he compliments George on the shows researcher at 3:00. A lot of interviewers ask 'standard questions' but its sooo refreshing to hear new, original content from interviewers Doesn't hurt that he's Canadian, like this SK farm kid

[@muntaha681]

His smile is so pretty...💗💗

[@dettitted]

k, so this is a way to interview someone as well, I see. Didn't know it was possible, felt so good to experience this! I've seen a lot - and I mean a lot - of interviews with Jim, never seen him this inspired. Finally a conversation that doesn't start with "do you have fun on the tbbt set" or "what's your favorite episode".... :)

[@Lovelyfashion40]

I love Jim and I love this interview! 💕

[@Witchy93]

My god. He is adorable

[@tally1604]

he's such a great person!

[@bensdadfrank]

Love the interviews that I've seen with the entire cast of this show. All seem genuine, and truly grateful, for their good fortune. Very much like Aaron Rodgers.I hope this is a trend!

[@PoojaDeshpande84]

i like the interviewer. He lets guests talk.

[@yoyoschmo1]

I made myself laugh so hard saying the hosts name as fast as I could, haha I'm crying

[@hyperion_style]

George has such an incredible intuition for interview. Every guest he had on provided so much more depth and interest in their answers compared to their American counterparts. I miss his show and I miss turning on CBC to catch it every week.

[@parrotsplace]

In this interview, you can see how Mr. Parsons brought his little mannerisms to his character Sheldon. A head turn, a look, how he phrases things. It's cool.

[@calebbartlett367]

Can't believe Jim is 40 here!! He looks like late 20's early 30's lol

[@Odbarc]

I look older than him and I'm a decade younger.

[@SheenaJackson39]

ikr? Luckily, like Jim, I look a decade younger. It feels good to get carded once in a while.

[@jakealan4552]

Kid Grit he's 43

[@lynnepashley4281]

This was 2010 he was 37 where do you get 40 from

[@tommyriam8320]

He's wearing a wig.

[@aprild7896]

Ohhhhh Jim is such a sweetie pie! 💚💚 love him!!

[@ChessRookiePanda]

seems like such a cool, humble guy.

[@reidrr41]

ONE OF THE GREATEST SHOWS EVER

[@jzsanchez]

Jim Parsons. He is so smart! and thats why I like him.

[@dieselscrub]

Just amazing wow, collage teachers are going to show all these interviews on how to gain the trust of the guest, just amazing. STROMBO FOR MAYOR!!!

[@tacos394]

such a lovely interview! :)

[@barbpoe228]

Third interview I've watched of Strombo, great interviewer, wow!

[@jmal1824]

brilliant character and totally suited to him. he's brought me more laughter than any.. and i mean .. any,, of my relationships.

[@tonydelariva7163]

I just heard about "Strombo" today and from what ive seen of his show on KZbin, i wish they showed his program here in the States!

[@Jewels1573]

I love to hear famous people say their mother was right.

[@2serveand2protect]

J.Parsons - an AWESOME, STUNNING ACTOR - one of the MOST TALENTED ACTORS I'VE EVER SEEN. I TRULY HOPE he will not "finish" with the "BBT" series and - HONESTLY! - if HOLLYWOOD WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE HIS POTENTAL AFTER HE FINISHES "BBT", THEN I'LL STOP WATCHING MOVIES. What's most STUNNING is that he is FOURTY, and he looks almost like a teenager! :D

[@themightychabunga2441]

What a great actor.

[@Soblessed97]

He’s so handsome and so genuine I’m sure made his momma proud.

[@HananGobran]

I'm not sure if he has the most satisfying laugh or it's just cause Sheldon has problems laughing, anyways I love you Jim..

[@kylehester7607]

Bry good interview from a humble talented actor !

[@bebe0284]

Great interview! I love the response of celebrating the geniuses rather than poking fun. I totally love that about this show!

[@EnzoPasq]

BTW, this is the second video clip I've seen of this show where the guest said he didn't know how George S found out a particular piece of information about them. That's awesome research.

[@lolitamorris2943]

Great interviewer

[@sandrajovic9304]

Loving this interview💡🔸✨ ♥

[@paulclarke7571]

Anyone here in 2020 with Yong Sheldon now a hit?

[@gtrdoc911]

what great skin he has!

[@assholecarrier]

+gtrdoc911 Cum!

[@Tobycek]

First time I've ever seen this interviewer (I'm not American and don't live there so I only occasionally watch US talk shows) and he is unquestionably better than Letterman, Conan O'Brien, Craig Ferguson or even Ellen (and I like Ellen a lot). He should be as famous as they are.

[@dundun8323]

he's canadian lol

[@Tobycek]

Ah, that explains it. :)

[@lucrativelyrics8131]

strombo (briefly) had a show on CNN (in the states), but it didn't last long..his CBC (canadian) talk show ran its' course too, now he just occasionally uploads musician interviews/concerts @ his home on his youtube channel

[@kalymnosalani]

I like more Jim Parsons than Sheldon Cooper

[@95TurboSol]

Wow, such a great interviewer, I will be subbing to watch more.

[@mariponce-l6h]

Excellent interviewer, very very nice

[@VlogsDAmour]

its fun and surprising to see how much jim parsons is of sheldon cooper. coming to really enjoy a character turns out that character really is of that character. im stoned

[@negativeindustrial]

I've noticed that too. It's like he's all the Sheldon minus the high intelligence. He's not stupid but he's certainly a genius level scientist

[@martinmi5]

"It was a warm summer night in ancient Greece."

[@uofm4life735]

One of my favorite episodes.

[@shtembyduelsson]

This is pretty inspirational...

[@sallyoneill8147]

Oh geez, that voice IS real.

[@senaami23]

He's adorable :)

[@amyjordan6531]

He is so cute and innocent and such a gentelman.. Thats my ooinion

[@yahia140]

That's my onion too

[@amyjordan6531]

Ha ha very funny.. was ment to write my opinion

[@zlopy]

Amy Jordan I love onions

[@amyjordan6531]

zlopy shut up

[@adamfilby9975]

I never realized how nice looking Jim Parsons was before. And, of course, Strombo is "my boyfriend!"

[@2serveand2protect]

...DAMN! - He's RIGHT! :D I don't think there is ANYONE IN THE WORLD, that "LIKES SHELDON "Shelly" COOPER, but EVERYDODY LIKES JIM PARSONS!! :D How the HELL is that? :)

[@bobjames1992]

He is actually a very nice guy. It's like finding out the guy who plays King Joffrey in Game of Thrones is actually a really nice person.

[@Walsh2571]

Bob James Most actors that play evil characters are.

[@bobjames1992]

I'm sure they are. It's just hard to visualize until you see it.

[@negativeindustrial]

+Bob James I don't perceive Sheldon as an evil character. In fact he is a very nice person. It is simply alienating to function on such a higher level than those around you yet be devoid of the social skills necessary to relate to your peers. Advanced placement courses are notorious for producing those results. People constantly perceive you as speaking down to them or believing yourself to be so much better than they are when the thought has never even crossed your mind. It can be infuriating because nothing you say nor any modification you may make to your personality ever seems to make it up to them. First impressions truly are very important as people rarely allow you a true second chance. :/

[@PhilWism]

the advert is killing me!!!!GRRGGGRTG

[@karlmontague]

If ever they make a movie about David Byrne and the early days of the Talking Heads, they should hire this guy.

[@yoyoschmo1]

And yes this interviewer is good and yes Jim Parsons is Sheldon

[@ShortFuseFighting]

a lot of pretentious tv snobs liked to crap on the big bang theory, but i always thought it was a terrific show (and i didnt/dont care who knows it)

[@TacticalXRays]

i'm so like him it scares me a bit. totally connect with his thoughts

[@michaelmurdoch9663]

ha! gayyyyy

[@grimjaur86]

george seems to be a really intelligent and caring person. it doesn`t seem like he just looks for laughs or applaude.

[@attackcounterentertainment3645]

Im so glad hes not weird, I was afraid he was like his character in person.

[@Karlurbans]

Attack Counter Why were you soo afraid of that??

[@tommyriam8320]

He's pretty weird.

[@sop4250]

43 years now... lol

[@wancia3547]

My favorite sitcoms are Fawlty towers, big bang, golden girls and Frasier.

[@kawasakiwhiptwo5821]

Great picks.

[@WeeWyllie]

Apparently a distinctly likeable man ... Jim Parsons, I mean!

[@maureen6669]

I love Jim and I think there is quite a lot of Sheldon in him too

[@shreddedreams]

I don't think jim realises that the directors based sheldon on his actual life haha!

[@lalmuanpuia730]

he's sheldon no matter what

[@vijaybansod186]

This is about Jim’s life.

[@scotnick59]

Good interviewer; so many just ask asinine questions

[@darkforcex7362]

I am a lover and a fighter.

[@nabanitamaji1936]

He actually talks like Sheldon in real life. He was definitely not acting in The Big Bang Theory.

[@conradbascombe]

Jim is the best actor in the big theory and that my opinion don't judge me I'm a 11 year using his sister sister phone and u can't spell that o word

[@jas5962]

Cuteness is radiating through his face

[@ipcressipcress7810]

He was on the 'Who do you think you are' USA show and all he said was 'Wow' to everything...Was that an act too?

[@heliotropezzz333]

That interview went fast.

[@gabrielabarros2036]

He is so cute

[@cyberpunkholiday]

If you really looked at his body of work...then you see how Sheldon is part of him and his other roles are not. Which to me is a good thing.

[@awakenthegreatnesswithin]

👏

[@paulamariehoyle8188]

💜💜💜💜

[@alangerrard7973]

he does

[@theoryg]

He's definitely brilliant as a conversationalist and he holds a good healthy normal-ness aside from everything with the show.

[@beerrunner8153]

This is Sheldon. He is typecast.
