There's already a show about a boy genius, it's called Jimmy Neutron. This show is basically a weird hybrid of that, Everybody Hates Chris, and The Big Bang Theory. And it's...not good.

You can clearly tell that everything the kid says is meant to make you think "aww, that's so cute! Look how smart he is!" But no. Young Sheldon isn't cute or funny. He's just annoying and obnoxious, and his extremely Smart Alec comebacks to everything are really draining to listen to for 30 minutes at a time. His family is more entertaining to watch than he is. The kid that plays Young Sheldon is a great actor and I'm sure he'll go far, but...he's not playing a likable character in the slightest.

I was surfing through the channels with my baby cousin when this came on. We decided to watch it because nothing good was on TV.

As soon as I saw the cheesy theme song, I thought the show would suck. But...it's actually not that bad! Compared to most of the garbage shows that Sprout makes nowadays, many of which I've had to endure with my little 3 year old cousin, this show is actually tolerable. It has good characters and the animation is bright and colorful, which is pleasant to the eyes. It's also pretty funny and it teaches good morals. It's not the greatest kids' show ever, but I would recommend it to little kids.
