Young Sheldon Has Done One Thing Undeniably Better Than TBBT – And It Makes The Universe Stronger

While The Big Bang Theory did have a few dramatic plots, the show missed out on its spinoff Young Sheldon’s smartest storytelling choice. The Big Bang Theory might have spawned Young Sheldon but the two shows are arguably equally popular at this stage. The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon have very different tones, with the former being a single-camera hang-out show in the vein of Friends or Seinfeld. In contrast, Young Sheldon is a single-camera nostalgic family sitcom that feels more like The Wonder Years or The Goldbergs. Despite (or perhaps, because of) these changes, Young Sheldon has amassed as big a fan base as its predecessor.
