Big Bang Theory's Jim Parsons developing new gay TV comedy
Parsons is set to imminently bow out of his role on The Big Bang Theory after 12 years, as the long-running show finally comes to a close. The out actor, who is TVs highest-paid star due to his lucrative contract on the sitcom, is already planning new projects.
Deadline reports that Parsons is developing a new gay-themed comedy series. Parsons production company Thats Wonderful Productions is behind planned new show The Inn Crowd, a new show that will center on a gay couple who open a new inn in a small rural town.
The show is in development at NBC, with Parsons and husband Todd Spiewak signed on as executive producers.
The show, penned by David Holden, is based on the true story of the Inn at Little Washington, in Rappahannock County, Virginia, which was operated by gay couple Patrick OConnell and Reinhardt Lynch.
