Young Sheldon-US-Pace-CBS (**Spoilers**)

Also Starring LeVar Burton

I think the whole cast are quite impressive and endearing in their own ways - Missy and Georgie were great in the Brisket episode this week, and I enjoyed the three kids working together.

Sheldons total recall parts were very funny.

The Soft Kitty origin story this week.


This is just such a great show it never fails to bring a smile to my face.

Zoe Perry who plays the mom is the daughter of Laurie Metcalf

Was impressed by how like Laurie Metcalf she was. Then I read her Wiki bio and understand why now.

The Sheldon scene on musicals was really good who why and where does the music come from

Sheldon doing the splits.

The whole cast are just so good I don't think there is a weakness in it.

Agent Coulson

That was quite a powerful episode this week.

His mother is played by the daughter of the actress who plays his mother in the Big Bang theory apparently.

Cheers I had posted it and then started doubting where I’d heard it.

Meemaw playing the video game


I really don't think there has been a bad episode of this show yet.

Agent Coulson

Fantastic nod to Amy this week with the Blossom reference.


The baptism scene was brilliant.

ALF

:D

Agent Coulson

It's the little things that this show does so well that makes it really heartwarming.


This week it was Missy getting into Sheldon's bed.

Agent Coulson

This weeks episode was set up in an episode of The Big Bang a few years I love they doing stories that were first told in the parent series.

Ragnar Lothbrok

I really love this show. Every character is a gem. Meemaw, Missy and of course Sheldon himself are my favourites. I also love the neighbouring Sparks family, especially Billy.

One thing annoys me about it though. I will never be able to accept that Meemaw would go anywhere near Dr John Sturgis in a romantic sense. She is way too hot and worldly for him

Agent Coulson

Nice season finale that nicely links to The Big Bang Theory Series Finale.

John :eek:

Missed the start of Season 3, have been catching up. Craig T. Nelson is a recurring guest star this season.

Agent Coulson

Poor Mary, Roadhouse.

Doesn't look like it.

Young Sheldon renewed for seasons 5, 6 and 7 at CBS

Have to say whilst I was never a huge fan of the Big Bang theory and do nothing more than watch Young Sheldon if it happens to be on (I do quite like it) I find the cast in young Sheldon to be really good, the Cooper family are all really good and the kid who plays Sheldon plays it very well, he could easily have come across very annoying and arrogant given the character he was playing.

How have I just realised that the same actor plays Sheldon's dad and Leonard's bully..

bnt

There's been some friendly discussion on Reddit about the direction the show should take next season: whether to closely follow Sheldon's memories - which are not all good - or whether to go for a lighter tone and focus on the comedy.

I say the former, since Sheldon, with his eidetic memory, would insist on it. He's not one for revisionism or rose-tinted glasses. There might be questions about how the writers will tackle some dark topics, but having seen how well the same company did that with Mom, I think they can do it.

Ming-Na Wen :)
