For young Sheldon Cooper, it isn't easy growing up in East Texas. Being a once-in-a-generation mind capable of advanced mathematics and science isn't always helpful in a land where church and football are king. And while the vulnerable, gifted and somewhat naïve Sheldon (series star IAIN ARMITAGE) deals with the world, his very normal family must find a way to deal with him. His father, George (series star LANCE BARBER), is struggling to find his way as a high school football coach and as father to a boy he doesn't understand. Sheldon's mother, Mary (series star ZOE PERRY), fiercely protects and nurtures her son in a town where he just doesn't fit in. Sheldon's older brother, Georgie (series star MONTANA JORDAN), does the best he can in high school, but it's tough to be cool when you're in the same classes with your odd younger brother. Sheldon's twin sister, Missy (series star RAEGEN REVORD), sometimes resents all the attention Sheldon gets, but also remains the one person who can reliably tell Sheldon the truth. Finally, there's Sheldon's beloved Meemaw (series star ANNIE POTTS), his foul-mouthed, hard-drinking Texas grandmother who is very supportive of her grandson and his unique gifts. For 12 years on The Big Bang Theory, audiences have come to know the iconic, eccentric and extraordinary Sheldon Cooper. This single-camera, half-hour comedy gives us the chance to meet him in childhood, as he embarks on his innocent, awkward and hopeful journey toward the man he will become. JIM PARSONS narrates as adult Sheldon. Review: Howl With Laughter - As a longtime fan of TBBT, I wasn't sure how going back to Sheldon's childhood would work out & whether it would be worth watching, but I thought "hey, give it a try." Saw the first episode & immediately bought the first three series. Was it worth it : I'm still laughing my socks off. Anyone who enjoyed TBBT will LOVE this. Stories are great and so are the interactions between the various cast members. Howl With Laughter, I did (and still am). Review: Buy it- you wont be disappointed - As huge Big Bang fans , this had a lot to live up to ! Am happy to say that it is just as entertaining , and has, perhaps a tad more pathos at times, but still good fun .

Continues to be great
Young Sheldon is, of course, the spinoff series of The Big Bang Theory, telling essentially weekly stories of Sheldon as a 10-year-old growing up in Medford Texas in the late 1980s. It is very different from the parent series in that it is not filmed in front of an audience and supplemented by a laugh track, it has more drama blended into it than BBT, and there are more long-running themes that are tied into the various weekly hijinks. Plus, there is the great 1980s soundtrack. And, it is narrated by Jim Parsons as adult Sheldon, which allows the show to drop hints of what happened to the character post BBT. The show continues to be well written and acted, with all the various actors Iain Armitage, Zoe Perry, Lance Barber, Montana Jordan, Raegan Revord, and Annie Potts getting ample storylines devoted to their characters and knocking their performances out of the park. The show does a great job not just focusing on the character of Sheldon, but developing all of the characters and giving great material for all members of the very large ensemble cast. The big storyline for Sheldon in season three is whether (and where) he should go to college, as he does not find high-school challenging at all. This causes a lot of friction between Sheldon and his parents. Another standout storyline is Missy trying to get on a little league baseball team. That story introduces Craig T. Nelson as a recurring character in the show, as Missy's coach, Georgie's boss, and a potential love interest for MeeMaw. I will not go too much into the various storylines to keep from spoiling anything, but the themes this season are very good, and the show is definitely not getting stale. For those who get the blu-ray, it is a basic MOD disc. There are captions and the shows do play in a play-all mode that allows you to pick up where you stop, even in the middle of an episode. The extras are very bare bones, just a short behind-the-scenes feature. So, if you only get the physical discs when there are a lot of bonus features, then you may just want to stick to streaming this. Overall, the show continues to be strong and is definitely worth checking out.

Kids Love it
I primarily got this as my two boys turn it on whenever it is on TV. However sometimes they can't as their Mum commandeers it. So I got them the series. I can't tell you how many times it has been on. I don't have enough fingers and toes.
