'Big Bang Theory': Jim Parsons wants Betty White to play Sheldon's mee-ma

Who knew that "pushing 90" would be the hottest time in Betty White's multi-decade career.
On Tuesday (March 16), we learned that the 88-year-old comedienne and actress had signed on to play a regular role on TV Land's first scripted sitcom, "Hot In Cleveland," which is definitely cool.
But it may throw a wrench into the hopes of "Big Bang Theory" star Jim Parsons, just as he suspected when we spoke earlier this week.
As fans of "BBT" know, Sheldon's beloved mee-ma is his grandmother and, though she's been mentioned many a time on the series, she's yet to be seen.
So, Bets, what do you think?
"Big Bang" is at the top of the successful sitcom list right now and Jim Parsons is not only an Emmy-nominated stand out but KTV finds him to be one of the nicest people in television.
So, yeah, can you find some time to swing by the Warner Bros. lot next season?

I would LOVE for Betty White to be Sheldon's mee-maw!!! That would be PERFECT. Can we start a Facebook campaign for this too???
That would be AWESOME!
That would be great!
What a time to be Betty White! I love her. I'd probably go 16-year-old school girl if I ever met her in person.
I almost don't want to see Mee Maw; we can all picture her as we please. Just like Mrs. Wolowitz. Penny's family please, but I want Mee Maw to be unseen.
PFFT* YES. The cast has stated before they want her to play Meemaw, so I'm loving that there's actually an article on it now LOL she really should.
YES, Oh yes! But what? no love for Abe Vigoda?
oh that would be PERFECT!
Copy and paste to join the facebook campaign!!!

I would really like to see Betty as Mee-maw, if not her, perhaps Debbie Reynolds.
