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 TV’s 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 “That’s 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 O’Connell and Reinhardt Lynch.

I saw one for $930 a night.

I think the most I ever spent anywhere was $125 a night at at extended stay hotel in Tampa, FL
that had a kitchen, living room area, and bedroom all combined.
