What is it with actors and despising the roles that made them famous?
It's usually the laziest slop that gets popular with the masses.
The character is an asshole and he rich now so he doesn't have to pretend anymore
fuck this reddit show
Where in any of that did you get that he "despises" the role?
>>219894034Makes them seem elite
What do we think of bearded Sheldon
>>219894034He did that shit for like 16 years straight. I'm sure it gets old. When you've got Big Bang money, the another paycheck probably doesn't mean much.
>>219894102This, the guy is worth $160m, he can do what he likes now.
>>219894034
>>219894150It's interesting how easily you can tell someone is gay just by their face.
Being typecast as an insufferable autist, and having such a distinct look to the point that the freakish normalfag cattle that are your target audience instantly recognise you in public, must be hell. I don't blame him for hating the character.
When you become a big TV character it's hard for people to see you as anything else, which affects your ability to get roles, and people will just treat you like that character.
>>219894150Handsome fellow.Nohomo.I guess wardrobe really played up his thin frame, and he was directed to act with cringing body language.
he said the same thing about young sheldon and ended up doing voice over for 500k per fucking episode plus a cameo at the endactors are prostitutes and hes a faggot on top of it so fuck whatever he says
>>219894034His character is an insufferable sperg that is there to be laughed at probably gets getting just like the guy who plays Dwight. Sitting on a bed of cash doesn't make fans less obnoxious
>>219894189Yeah that happened with Dustin Diamond and Screech, he could never escape that fully.
>>219894189He's worth tens of millions. If he wants to continue acting, it's because he's bored.
>>219894034Leverage>we want to typecast you as this role that people loved you in. We can offer 100k/episode<I hated that role, I'll never do it again>okay, how about 150k then?[Repeat until they hit the right price]
>>219894176Is it the thousand yard stare?
>>219894034Yeah, I wouldn't want anything to do with this of I was an actor of the original show.
>>219894034he probably got quite sick of random people shouting various (in)famous lines.POORLY CODED N64 EMULATOR
>>219894034Can you imagine how many manchildren came up to him irl and screamed "BAZINGA" right in his face? He probably had to use all his willpower to not murder them at some point.
>>219894176Being gay helps
>>219894150He looks unrecognizable to me like this.
>>219894189>When you become a big TV character it's hard for people to see you as anything else, which affects your ability to get rolesthis old dude is in his 50s so that means he was acting for years prior to this slop. anybody see anything he did before this? meaning he was a literal nobody... he wasnt getting any roles before this
>>219894176i always remember some old comedy central presents where the comedian made a joke like "why do gay guys always look like they smelled freshly baked cookies?" lmao bazinga man definitely has that just smelled cookies face
>>219894587By the end of the show's run, Parsons and the rest of the leads were making $1 million/episode each.
>>219894789dov davidoff. that was a pretty funny stand up
>>219894176
>>219894811Well he probably wants 2m or even more then
>>219894826oh yeah that was definitely him lol i remember him now he had an almost bobcat goldthwait type delivery
>>219894094Pretty much this.
>>219894263You too would accept 500k for reading lines in front of a microphone, let's not pretend it's the same as putting on the suit and actually acting for who knows how many episodes
>>219894034Everyone who doesn't despise that show is a fucking moron, my opinion of this guy actually went up after reading that
am I a man or am I a muppet
>>219894836Both those faggots look gay to me.
>>219895608>my opinion of this guy actually went up after reading thatI hate to tell you, but you're a moron. He doesn't despise the show. It made him rich. He just wants to "be taken serious as an actor". Like they all do when they're only famous for one role. He likes the role so much, he played it again in Young Sheldon and even was a producer.You fell for his bullshit.
>>219894034I would imagine it has to do with TBBT being almost all offensive humor, is a series that would be impossible to make these days.
>>219894034>NOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHY IS HE DISRESPECTING THE HEKCING BINGO BONGO THEOREM?Seems to me a eminently reasonable thing to despise.
>>219894787He had only been doing acting for four years before he filmed the pilot for Big Bang Theory.
>>219895662nta but the thread is about an actor despising the role that made them famous. Why the fuck would an actor like an autistic faggot like Sheldon? Acting is well known to mess with the actors' minds and sense of self. It'd be different if he was some superhero, he was Sheldon Cooper for 16 years, who the fuck wants to be seen as that.
>>219894094People want cheap easy laughs not ethereal commentaries wrapped in humor and entendreMost people are dumb and lazy compared to /tv/ posters.
>>219894150is her trying to disguise himself to make people stop coming up to him in public and saying "BAZINGA!"?
>>219895738"Who wants to be rich and famous?"
>>219894176TBBT was shit after season 3 so I can understand that he'd get tired of it
>>219894034he's haggling for a larger amount of money if they do decide to bring back big bang theory
>>219894787He had a small part in 'Garden State' (2004) where he also spoke Klingon. Maybe he hates Sheldon because the character is an exaggeration of all the things Parson hates about himself.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfH243gabPshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jm8iDiE09zs
hey you're that sheldon guy can you do the bazinga? :DD
>>219896379>gets to act in a movie with the worst designing woman and a dude from scrubs
>>219894034Who the fuck loves his job?
>>219894034>What is it with actors and despising the roles that made them famous?Its really quite common perhaps even the norm. The great Leonard Nimoy wrote a book titled "I am not spock". All actors have an ego that tells them they must play many roles to demonstrate skill. They resist being typecast as one character no matter how great. Lets face it without sheldon there would have been no reason to watch Big Bang Theory for 12 seasons. Sheldon was the only character to spawn a spinoff series.
>>219896379Guy's close to 50 now, he got a solid 20 years as the typecast aspie-nerd guy. But it's the same thing a lot of typecast actors notice, it's why Jonah Hill has spent the last decade trying to reinvent himself from "Fat Jew Dork Awkward Best Friend" because very few actors get that second role.
>>219896700Thanks for reminding me that Delta Burke was hot enough to get me to watch that show even though it wasn't the type of content I'd otherwise enjoy.>>219896790William Shatner has his "get a life" moments but in general he just marched on and did other roles, even if they were lesser. Probably why he adjusted better as he was ok with taking a step downwards.
>>219896870Many of them fight against their big role. A few end up winning and breaking free from that image. Most eventually come to realize how lucky they were to have become such a huge cultural icon and stop fighting against it. Sadly a few remain bitter forever, never appreciating what they had.
>>219895752>Most people are dumb and lazysure>compared to /tv/ posters.Let's not go overboard here
>>219894263He made out like a fucking bandit if that's the case goddamnHelps that Young Sheldon was a way better show
>>219895843>>219896956bro what even is this discussion? Actors/actresses complain about how their iconic role causes them some psychological problems, many also hate being typecast. As anon has mentioned Leonard Nimoy wrote a book called "I am not spock". They talked about such things in their own books or as answers to interview questions. That's understandable. They're not saying they wish they didn't get the roles, they're not saying they're not grateful or that these aren't first world problems. So where is the problem? Why are your panties in such a bunch over it?
>>219894034I think the worst about this is Harrison Ford, he just acts like a rude ass munch about star wars. Then the fans praise it like theyre his battered girlfriend
>>219894034He was the sole reason BBT ended in the first place. The sole reason. Everyone wanted to keep going into eternity and nobody agreed that the show should have ended when it did. Parsons felt he was getting too old and looking too old to keep dressing up like Sheldon and have it look convincing. He was also doing a whole bunch of other shit like live theater and movies and was overwhelmed and just wanted to slow down. Probably the main factor is the show had gone on for way too long and he was the first and only person to completely burn out.https://youtu.be/pcvmWCJMN7Y?t=133
Image if he was the Joker
>>219896790I respect Malcolm for this> no more roles when he hits early 20s> oh well, I have fuck you money. Im just going to drive f1 cars> reboot comes along, yeah sure I can buy another classic car
>>219897262sheldon wouldn't want to kill batman
>>219894034bing bang was to based for his gay ass
>>219897262I think he'd be a better riddler
>>219897196You're projecting more than a multiplex full of Imax.
>>219894176>It's interesting how easily you can tell someone is gay just by their face.You just have a GAYDAR, being gay yourself.Not even joking.
>>219894836>*squints*>homo AI instantly defeated
>>219894176Zesty phenotype
>>219897241If I had a dead end career like the guys who played Howard and Raj, I'd certainly try and keep the graving train rolling as long as humanly possible.
>>219897779>you can only spot a tranny if you're a tranny>you can only spot a lesbian if you're a dykedo you think your boyfriend can't tell you're an aids patient?
>>219894034I'm proud to announce that I never watch a single episode of this queer drivel
>>219897643BOJANGLES
>>219894034The cast of Seinfeld fucking hated their characters. Parsons is in his early 50s with enough money to relax for the rest of his life. Fuck working.
>>219896790>Leonard Nimoy wrote a book titled "I am not spock".Yes but he followed it up with "I am Spock."
>>219897241The show was created by the same guy who created Two and a Half Men and I think he realized that once the main star is gone the show can't go on any further like with Sheen and Kutcher
>>219897981>Treblinka
>>219894034Not everyone enjoys doing the same shit for 10+ years regardless of how much money or fame they get from it.
>>219894034It's always like that at first, but then after a decade or so, they'll come back to liking it. E.g., Shatner.
>>219894150Didn't recognize him right away, which is probably what he was going for.
>>219894176Takes one to know one, you figure?
>>219894159“I didn’t Sneed it”
>>219895798Probably, it’d work on me.
>>219894034>Says something that is not even remotely funny>Laugh track>Rinse and repeat
>>219894155>He did that shit for like 16 years straight.More if you want to count the voiceovers in Young Sheldon.
popular slop like this always attracts retards who can't separate the character and the actor, cant even imagine how many dumb cunts ask him to do the bazinga 24/7
>>219894034>no i wouldn't do a reboot>eher mher gherd did he just like say he like oh eM GEE like he hates the character he hated the show like oh ehm gee he must have hated everythingI swear its like a gossiping sewing circle here sometimes.
>>219896790It's kind of like being a band that made a lot of really good songs but that stupid shit one you wrote in 5 minutes to fill space on the album is the one that made you famous.
>>219894176it's the eyesdraw a line down the nose to divide the face verticallygay men tend to have their right eye higherit's not an absolute, but it's reliablethat proves it's congenital, or at least preceding exposure
>>219894034 I feel for the guy. It's a stupid fucking character and a stupid fucking show. Consider this is also the show that paid a pretty penny to that disgusting cat poo smelling pit sandwich Mayim Bialik.Come on bah.
>>219894094This
>>219894034He does the voice over for the prequel show though.
>>219894114Reddit always hated it and called it "nerd blackface" because it wasn't authentic to nerd culture.
>>219894150Reminds me of that guy who is classic.
>>219894787Damn he looks fabulous for 50 imo
>>219894034I think in his case he feels like he ended up a bit typecast, every role I've seen him in is a scientist
>>219894836Kek it just made them Jewish
>>219894836this is a fake troll image btw, with the real one the differences are much more subtle
>>219894034What, most people hate that character
>>219894034Sheldon is an autistic asshole
>>219901511You have more evidence of that being the result of your mind trying to accomodate your face as a survival mechanism, than actual "gay genes"
>>219897981>>219898504zimbabwe
>>219894176I can’t tell by face, but voice is a dead giveaway.
>>219894282based Sheldon
>>219902139Not trueSuch an odd thing to lie about
When a show like that gets popular they absolutely shit the episodes out. Probably got sick of grinding.
>>219894034From the creators of Young Sheldon comes.... Old Sheldon.Yeah, I wouldn't want to come back either.
to be fair he's probably trying to do serious acting but everyone he meets just says "bazinga" all the time
>>219895738>who the fuck wants to be seen as that.me if they pay me a million dollars an episode
>>219902231I thought homosexuality was the result of childhood sexual abuse.
>>219894176The mirror
>>219894034Probably was too busy porking Grace Currey on the set of "The Leader".
>>219894102Yeah, he worked for that role, got his payday and probably invested his money well. The show is shit but at that point you're just Bazinga Man so why bother
>>219894034say it fag
>>219902279Mogadishu
>>219905786paizuri
>>219897196That's been debunked.
>>219901834I always thought some of the side characters or one offs did reflect it though. Like that fat nerd who stole sheldons wow account
>>219894176Yeah I was really disappointed.
>>219896790>>219894150definitely got hair transplants
>>219894034Whores always regret their whoring later in life.
>>219894094What a trvke FPBP
>>219894866The jewish guy from jersey shtick got old fast.
