What caught my attention was the following said by Mayim regarding the comic shop set:
Bialik: I'm a comic book person, I was raised in comic book stores -- when we have the comic book set, I spend my breaks in the comic book set. Once I saw "Y the Last Man," and I was trying to explain it to Jim Parsons and I was saying "This is a collected 'Y the Last Man,' I had to collect them all individually!" He said, "I don't care! (laughs) I play someone who cares but I don't really care."
A commentator replied with the following:
WebWhip: I am mildly disappointed that Parsons is so dismissive of the character type that made him a star. It seems to me he should have, at least for the sake of fans of his character, kept secret his disinterest in the personality type that propelled us into the age of personally acquired science and technology and provided a basis for the great personal and public success of the show in which he participates. Sad to know he's really just doing Felix Unger for the money. What bothered me most was his dismissive reaction to Balik's discovery of the collectible "Y", which had considerable intrinsic cultural value for her. Some friend!
Now, is WebWhip being overly sensitive or does he have something here?
