MONDO EXTRAS

TWoP: Are you working on anything else during your break, or are you just resting?
Parsons: I'm hopefully going to rest a little bit. Between doing the press and stuff, it's amazing how far this season goes beyond stage time. And a couple of things I'm hoping will pan out. If they don't, a break isn't the worst thing in the world. But fingers crossed I'll get to work on something.

TWoP: Are there any other comedies that you watch that you can tell us you're a fan of, even if they're your competitors?
Parsons: Oh, I don't mind. I've really enjoyed -- and I'm a broken record when I say this, because everyone else says it, too -- but I've really enjoyed Modern Family. I just think it's fun. I don't feel like I get a lot of time for tons of TV... but I've tried to make time for that. And I know one of the guys on it, and I really enjoy it. I think it's really well done. And like I said, I feel like a broken record. But truth is truth.
