Young Sheldon

I have a problem with the reviewers complaining about how Sheldon is such a brat and at the same time say they watch TBBT. If they watch that show then they must know Sheldon is a brat. In this show, though, we have a 9 year old version of a bratty Sheldon. In both cases he isn't bratty because he's spoiled or mean hearted. He's bratty because he's a genius and a social simpleton. That's the point. I Iiked the show right off but I can also say that it has improved as these brief, less than 30 minute, episodes are able to develop the characters and relationships more. One reviewer complained about the lack of character development after only watching the first show! I also think the actor playing young Sheldon is doing a great job. As with the adult Sheldon the young Sheldon is sincere, wants to be good, knows his own mind but also knows that he doesn't understand social norms and so listens to those close to him although he reserves the right to not accept those norms. I enjoy the family dynamic and the situations that arise because he's special. This family is much more realistic than the Malcom in the Middle family, a show one reviewer touted as being at a level this show couldn't come up to. The characters in MITM were ridiculously stupid. The characters in Young Sheldon each ha ve a unique personality and do things that you have seen others do or can imagine others doing, like Sheldon's brother trying chewing tobacco, repeatedly spitting it out in disgust then saying "I must be doing something wrong". The writing warms the heart as we watch a family moving past disagreements and difficulties caused by their special Sheldon - all realizing that they love him and he's family which is more important than those disagreements and difficulties.

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.

While I agree with the criticisms other reviewers have said about young Sheldon , I enjoy the supporting cast very much especially MeeMaw and Georgie . I'm guessing the creators couldn't manage to snag Laurie Metcalf for her iconic role as Mary Cooper , which makes for the very big shoes to fill (her real life daughter does however, do a good job) .... Anyway , good clean family viewing is very far and few in between so I'm grateful for this show .

A big thank you for all those responsible making this show. Each episode was only 20-minutes long, but watching each guarantees an amazing experience. It left me in deep pondering after finishing the entire series (with my family). It's amazing how a light-hearted comedy can effect such a meaningful impact. I wish there were other shows like this with such high quality, but there was none, there is none. I'm sure that even years from now, there will be none. I'm just glad that I got to experience watching this show and am so thankful to everyone who crafted this 'perfection'. So excited for Georgie & Mandy's upcoming series, even if it ends up half as great this one, it will be better than all the other shows out there.

I really enjoyed the show being a huge fan of The Big Bang Theory. I remember Mary being a little off her rocker in The Big Bang Theory but in Little Sheldon she is hard to stomach. I can't stand it when her eyes bug out 90% of the time she talks. The facial expressions are also nerve grating. Her better than thou attitude. If it's not done her way it's the wrong way. Shoving her Christianity down everybody's throats. Her overpowering parenting. The kids HAD to sneak around and try to do things without her knowing because she disapproved of everything. I understand Sheldon is very young especially in college but she has absolutely no trust or faith in anyone in her family. If it's fun, Mary will definitely be there to ruin it.
