    • Trivia
      Zoe Perry is the real-life daughter of Laurie Metcalf from The Big Bang Theory (2007). Over 20 years earlier she also played the younger version of her mother in episodes 5.7, Halloween IV (1992) and 7.19, All About Rosey (1995) of Roseanne (1988). Now she again plays a younger version of her mother's character over 20 years later.
    • Goofs
      Connie (aka Meemaw) often went to a casino across the border in Louisiana throughout the series. The series takes place starting in 1989. Casino gambling wasn't made legal in Louisiana until 1991, and the first casino wasn't opened there until 1993. Furthermore, the casinos that opened around that time were all riverboats that initially had to be moving up and down the river before any gambling could commence, but the casino Connie often went to was land-based. The first (and as of 2021, only) land-based non-tribal casino with table games in Louisiana is Harrah's New Orleans, which didn't even open until 1999.

    No Laugh Track.....
    It took until episode 5 of season 2 for me to realise that this has no laugh track, yet it is much funner than the show it spins off from, The Big Bang Theory. Don't get me wrong I have been watching TBBT from day one and will continue to watch it, but Young Sheldon is much much funnier.

    Like another reviewer stated, it must have been a huge chore trying to find a child to play Young Sheldon, but they have done a fantastic job. For me the whole cast does a brilliant job, but my favourite is Montana Jordan as Georgie, closely followed by Annie Potts as his Grandmother and Lance Barber as his dad.

    Excellent show and one I look forward to watching each week.
