There is a distinct tonal difference between Young Sheldon and Big Bang. The new show is much more a traditional family-focused show, and the humor is accordingly cleaner.

Little Sheldon is an easily anxious fellow who tattles and condescends. He'd be a turnoff except that the charming young star and Parsons' narration confer great appeal.

Yes, Young Sheldon does have its off moments, but it's not going to incite the same kind of hate watch rage its mother show gets. There is some charm happening here.

There's a lot of predictable jokes -- not all bad -- and predictable plot twists, but surprisingly secure and quirky Sheldon does have its charms, and the show does too.

One thing everybody will be able to agree on, though, is that the 9-year-old version of Sheldon in the Big Bang spinoff Young Sheldon is not ready for prime time or even the pre-dawn hours of a public-access channel ... [It] is hideously misconceived.

Young Sheldon ends up having a mind of its own, even if it's a prequel to a long-established hit.
September 25, 2017
Young Sheldon is surprising for all the right reasons; so much so, it's hard to tell exactly where it will go next.
September 21, 2017
Inoffensive and unfunny, Young Sheldon is unlikely to have viewers shouting "Bazinga!" any time soon.

It's extremely melancholy, even with an obligatory sweet family moment at the pilot's climax, and Lorre and Molaro ... are still figuring out how best to craft jokes for this format.

What's funny in Sheldon/adult is grating in Sheldon/child.
