Young Sheldon Season 1 Finale Review – ‘Vanilla Ice-Cream, Gentleman Callers, and a Dinette’
Martin Carr reviews the season finale of Young Sheldon… Taking quirky up a notch by focusing on the dessert choices of physicist Richard Fineman before seguing into courtship rituals amongst Texan widows, Young Sheldon maintains its batting average. Employing off beat character moments there is unintentional humour by way of intellectual awkwardness and an emotional […]
Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 21 Review – ‘Summer Sausage, a Pocket Poncho, and Tony Danza’
Martin Carr reviews the twenty-first episode of Young Sheldon… Montana Jordan and Raegan Revord have been overlooked in Young Sheldon. Not only a thought with acres of evidence but an assertion fully loaded with an array of examples listed A through F. That Chuck Lorre and company recognise this and use nineteen minutes to rectify […]
Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 20 Review – ‘A Dog, A Squirrel, and a Fish Named Fish’

Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 19 Review – ‘Gluons, Guacamole, and the Color Purple’

Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 18 Review – ‘A Mother, a Child, and a Blue Man’s Backside’
Martin Carr reviews the eighteenth episode of Young Sheldon… Young Sheldon is increasingly about the little things. Comic asides, chuck away one liners between characters and risqué moments which enrich rather than diminish any Sheldon centric situation. Perry and Armitage take great pleasure in stealing many of the best lines, while the latter proves his […]
Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 17 Review – ‘Jiu-Jitsu, Bubble Wrap, and Yoo-Hoo’
Martin Carr reviews the seventeenth episode of Young Sheldon… There is a naïve quirkiness which has infiltrated the back end of season one recently. Aside from the structural segues which dictate a majority of Young Sheldon, character development also makes an interesting contribution towards its overall tone. Armitage not only seems gifted at indirect impersonation […]
