Young Sheldon Season 7 Has A Dr. Sturgis Problem

While Young Sheldon needed Dr. Sturgis to grow tired of its eponymous hero in season 6’s plot, The Big Bang Theory’s spinoff must now reverse this surprising character shift. Young Sheldon’s title character can sometimes become a problem for the series. While its predecessor The Big Bang Theory was a traditional multi-camera hang-out show with a laugh track, Young Sheldon is a more nostalgic single-camera family sitcom with a narrator. This means that Sheldon’s goofiness can sometimes feel over-the-top and ill-suited to Young Sheldon‘s more serious storylines, resulting in some episodes sidelining the character altogether.
