Young Sheldon TV Series Download | O2TvSeries

Story starts from 1989, 9-year-old Sheldon Cooper has skipped four grades to start high school along with his less-intellectual older brother. Because he struggles to be understood by his family, classmates and neighbors, his mother arms him with the best thing she can come up with: reminding bullies his dad is the football coach and his brother is on the team. His twin sister doesn’t always share his exceptional mind, but she has a much clearer vision of what life has in store for the young genius. Jim Parsons, who plays the adult version of Sheldon on “The Big Bang Theory (2007),” narrates the story in Young Sheldon.

The show centers on the childhood of The Big Bang Theory’s high- functioning autistic genius Sheldon Cooper. Sheldon is a quirky savant in a very ordinary family with a religious mom and a puzzled dad. Too smart for his peers, the 9-year-old Sheldon is boosted to high school, where he promptly alienates everyone.

Some people complain that Sheldon is too annoying, but why would you want a series about a young Sheldon if you didn’t want to see someone annoying? I find the kid version less irritating, primarily because he is powerless and thus is not, like his adult counterpart, bullying and browbeating and insulting his friends to get his way. Young Sheldon is just trying to survive and, more importantly, learn.

In fact, my main concern is that Sheldon seems a little too normal. He’s got some funny habits and is a bit obsessive, but I would have expected someone far *more* obnoxious and weird. He really just seems precocious and socially clueless. Young Sheldon TV Series Download.

I wasn’t surprised that Sheldon is socially inept or sometimes rude – if you are, then once again I have to ask why on earth you watched this show. I was surprised at the sweetness of the series. Sheldon’s mom is wonderfully understanding and supportive, and even his dad has occasional moments of rough, loving insight.

Some people have said there aren’t any jokes in this series, but it’s actually very funny. No, there aren’t any Catskills comics material, but if you think there are no jokes I think you just need the BBT’s laugh track.

Anyone expecting ‘more Big Bang’ will be sorely disappointed by Young Sheldon. This is a very different kind of show – and a far, far better show than we had any right to expect. Young Sheldon could have been a quick cash-in on the huge popularity of Big Bang Theory. But it turns out to be a whole new thing, only loosely connected to the previous show.

True, Young Sheldon does pick up the backstory established for the Sheldon of Big Bang. But the writing takes off in a whole new direction. Gone are the zippy one-liners, the exaggerated characters, the zaniness, What we get instead is something no one could have predicted: heart.

It’s a huge mistake to think of Young Sheldon as a prequel to Big Bang. Think of it, instead, as a 21st Century reboot of Leave It to Beaver. This is a slice-of-life story of growing up in Texas. Instead of being set-bound like Big Bang, Young Sheldon is shot largely on locations. Instead of being stylized, it’s realistic. Instead of being glib, it’s thoughtful. There’s plenty of humor, but it’s gentler and more complex. Young Sheldon TV Series Download.

The third episode, for example, deals with a child coming to grip with the possible death of a parent, and with the role of faith in his very logical universe. The script doesn’t judge, and it doesn’t forget to be, at times, hilariously funny. (The last line had us in stitches.)

The acting is uniformly superb. Sheldon’s mom perfectly evokes Laurie Metcalf’s older version from Big Bang. Annie Potts playing Sheldon’s ‘Meemaw’ is as brilliant as she’s ever been (and that’s saying quite a lot.) And then there’s Iaian Armitage in the title role. He doesn’t mimic the older Sheldon, but he does ring absolutely true as a precocious yet naive kid, totally out of step with his surroundings. After watching him for a half-hour, I no longer cared whether he was supposed to be a younger version of some other character. He’s a totally memorable character in his own right.

Chuck Lorre has taken a huge risk, defying audience expectations with Young Sheldon. Let’s hope he and Steven Molaro (who’ve co-written the early episodes) can keep the series going as powerfully as it has begun. And hope also that audiences can shake off their addiction to Big Bang Theory long enough to appreciate something that’s as fresh and ground-breaking today as Big Bang was eleven years ago.
