The suits which Stuart, Raj, and Leonard wear in their flashback scenes to make them look 100-150 pounds heavier than they are took hours of assembly. Having the whole gang around may make for us goofing off more than our director appreciates but it also makes it extra fun. Episodes such as this one, because they are so complicated and depend so much on editing after we film the episode, can get tedious to film. Although Jim was missing from almost all of the scenes in our set, the very talented and very sweet Kevin Sussman (“Stuart”) was with us for this episode and we all had a great time chit-chatting and cracking jokes throughout the week. It increases almost exponentially with every added person to a scene. Whenever there are scenes that involve all or almost all of our cast, the potential for chit-chatting and joke-cracking increases. He was like a disembodied voice all week from the next set over! I missed having him in all of our scenes in person. I don’t wish I had a Christmas tree, but I’m also very comfortable enjoying the process from afar.Īll but one of Jim Parsons’ scenes was filmed via FaceTime from an adjacent set. The ornaments are neat and I would imagine it is fun to hang them all and arrange them all.
Sure, I’ve been to homes that have Christmas trees and I vaguely remember stringing popcorn and cranberries for my friend Sara’s Christmas tree when we were in 7th grade, but I grew up in a home with no Christmas tree and really enjoyed watching it done for this episode! I think the tinsel is pretty and the lights are pretty too. If I’m not mistaken, I believe I’m the only one from the eight of us in the show last night (the Stuart character was in the episode along with the regular seven of us) who has never decorated a Christmas tree. I missed a regular tape time with the anticipation and excitement of a few hundred people in the audience, but we made do with our smaller audiences very well! Because of the number of small scenes and flashbacks, we filmed for two long days in front of small groups of audiences who were rotated according to their tour schedules of the Warner Brothers lot. This was one of the rare episodes we did not film at our normal taping hour.
