El joven Sheldon

I just finished watching this series, i remember starting it when i was in schooling probably 7th or 8th grade, i used to be excited to watch new episodes every friday and laugh with my stomach as it brings me joy.

Im going to be honest, i never fully watched the big bang theory, but i enjoyed looking at clips of the show in facebook, youtube etc.

Watching them made me happy and brought me laughter. During the first few episodes i never thought that the shows were related and that young sheldon was a prequal. But when i found out i was more than happy.

My Favorite characters were definetly, Connie tucker or Memaw, George cooper, Mary, mandy, missy, sheldon, georgie.

When the show ended it made an imprint on me, i will definetely remember this my whole life.

The show has good characters and amazing comedy, this is definetly a recommendation.

I cried tears when the last few episodes aired, but it was worth it.

Im looking forward to seeing more clips of the show on social media to remind me about the greatness of this show.

I congratulate the show cast and production team, wishing them good luck in upcoming film and TV awards.

This is a rare spin-off that far surpasses the original. Sheldon is surrounded by a cast of believable, fleshed out and funny characters rather than the shallow stereotypes in The Big Bang Theory. His antics, trials and passions were very relatable and nostalgic to me. This show has humour (actual humour, not the canned iCarly level "humour" of the original show) and, most importantly, heart. Kudos to the actors especially!

It took until episode 5 of season 2 for me to realise that this has no laugh track, yet it is much funner than the show it spins off from, The Big Bang Theory. Don't get me wrong I have been watching TBBT from day one and will continue to watch it, but Young Sheldon is much much funnier.

Like another reviewer stated, it must have been a huge chore trying to find a child to play Young Sheldon, but they have done a fantastic job. For me the whole cast does a brilliant job, but my favourite is Montana Jordan as Georgie, closely followed by Annie Potts as his Grandmother and Lance Barber as his dad.

Excellent show and one I look forward to watching each week.

I thought it was a great first episode and a brilliant idea. There's so many ways this show can go if done correctly. Taken a character already loved and showing us all the bits we hear pieces from on The Big Bang Theory. I think it was a bit reckless using an actor from The Big Bang Theory to star in a different role in this spin off but can put that down to me being picky.

Overall I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to seeing where the series goes!

I was surprised how many people dislike the pilot. I thought it was an interesting idea done well. And now that I've watched six episodes, I feel fully justified in saying this is terrific television.

The show centers on the childhood of The Big Bang Theory's high- functioning autistic genius Sheldon Cooper. Sheldon is a quirky savant in a very ordinary family with a religious mom and a puzzled dad. Too smart for his peers, the 9-year-old Sheldon is boosted to high school, where he promptly alienates everyone.

Some people complain that Sheldon is too annoying, but why would you want a series about a young Sheldon if you didn't want to see someone annoying? I find the kid version less irritating, primarily because he is powerless and thus is not, like his adult counterpart, bullying and browbeating and insulting his friends to get his way. Young Sheldon is just trying to survive and, more importantly, learn.

In fact, my main concern is that Sheldon seems a little too normal. He's got some funny habits and is a bit obsessive, but I would have expected someone far *more* obnoxious and weird. He really just seems precocious and socially clueless.

I wasn't surprised that Sheldon is socially inept or sometimes rude - if you are, then once again I have to ask why on earth you watched this show. I was surprised at the sweetness of the series. Sheldon's mom is wonderfully understanding and supportive, and even his dad has occasional moments of rough, loving insight.

Some people have said there aren't any jokes in this series, but it's actually very funny. No, there aren't any Catskills comics material, but if you think there are no jokes I think you just need the BBT's laugh track.
