Young Sheldon

This isn't what I expected. I was just imagining Big Bang Theory-esque scenes, but this is more like In the Middle with Sheldon. I like it. Still had me cracking up too.

After watching the pilot episode , I'm not hooked yet . I'll give it a few weeks to get better . Pilot had no laughs for me . Casting seems good , especially his Mother . They're kind of in a dangerous genre , first it's a spin-off , and second it's a retro family comedy . There are always lots of family comedies to choose from . Right now in fact one of the best retro family comedies of all time-The Goldbergs- happens to be running . I'm a fan of TBBT , especially Sheldon , but I'm not necessarily going to watch Young Sheldon . November 2 is the scheduled date of the second episode . Edit - After 5 episodes , I can say that I still don't find the show funny . The male characters seem to be the weakest link in the show . The Father , brother , and Tam are forgettable while his Mother , sister and Grandmother actually have personality . That said , it's still quite watchable for rainy day viewing .
