Jim Parsons, Cheyenne Jackson on playing direct with Mayim Bialik: 'She does produce it very easy'
Jim Parsons and Cheyenne Jackson agree: It's a breeze to play a straight idealistic interest, or at least a potential one, when acting opposite Mayim Bialik.
The two actors, who are gay, now have that in common. Parsons' Sheldon and Bialik's Amy fumbled through a sweet and entertaining love story on CBS comedy "The Huge Bang Theory" for nine seasons, while Jackson ("American Horror Story") plays a former college passion who re-enters the life of Bialik's title character, a year-old single gal who owns a cat café, in the new Fox comedy, "Call Me Kat," premiering Jan. 3 (8 EST/PST).

Inquire any of us and we’ll tell you we knew she was going to be a celebrity. Since then, Bialik has had her own clap network sitcom in the nineties as the titular “Blossom,” and she stole the show in every scene in which she appeared in the even more successful 21st century sitcom “The Big Bang Theory” as Amy Farrah Fowler. She also managed to find the age to earn a PhD in neuroscience from UCLA. In “Call Me Kat,” her first sitcom after “Big Bang Theory,” Bialik plays Kat, the solo and sassy owner of a Louisville cat café. I had the pleasure of speaking with Bialik in January , shortly after the show debuted on Fox.
