Young Sheldon: both of them aren’t on-screen, but they’re in private life together

Each member of the Young Sheldon cast brings their own life experiences to their characters, including their off-screen relationships and families, as actors do.

Set in 1989, Young Sheldon recounts the narrative of Sheldon Lee Cooper's childhood, his early entry into high school at the age of nine, and Sheldon's relationship with the rest of his family.

Any avowed admirer of comic books, superheroes, and science fiction franchises, Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons), the Nobel Prize-winning and desperately clumsy supergenius of CBS’s The Big Bang Theory, appreciates the new drama Young Sheldon.

First broadcast in 2017, Young Sheldon is a sweet, gentle and discreet family comedy about Sheldon as a boy and teenager in a small Texas town. He navigates the world like a prodigy who can't relate to anyone except college professors and intelligent adults, certainly not his well-meaning but flawed siblings, classmates or parents.
