  • Iain Armitage, star of the CBS comedy "Young Sheldon," has pulled off a magic trick: helping carry a network TV hit for seven seasons while also growing up. Luke Burbank talks with the young actor about the show's finale; and with Jim Parsons (who created the character of Sheldon Cooper on "The Big Bang Theory") and executive producers Steve Molaro and Steve Holland about the show's success, which has surprised even them.

    It’s a perfect paradox kids who loved bbt watch to see where Sheldon came from while kids who only know young Sheldon will want to see reruns of bbt to see where Shelton goes

    I very rarely watched reruns of “The Big Bang Theory” but watch “Young Sheldon” religiously.
    I’m 62 years old.
    One thing they didn’t take into consideration about what “Young Sheldon” has done…through the innocence of a young kid and his family, I’ve started watching “The Big Bang Theory” and am now not annoyed with the Sheldon character. For me, Ian humanized Sheldon.

Thank you CBS, all the actors, writers, directors, producers, and crew for bringing us so much happiness and joy for the last seven seasons. Wishing all continued blessings and success in all your future endeavors. We have decided to stream The Bing Bang Theory and to watch Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage on CBS. By the way, does that mean there is a second marriage? Something to ponder upon.

    My thoughts on the character of Sheldon is that there seems to be a hybrid mannerism of grumpy trumpy maybe not all parts but minor parts of the brain within the script and I find that very interesting. So, futurewise if there is ever a grumpy trumpy movie I think Ian could portray young trumpy

      i think it was a good decision since a lot of shows fail just because they kept going way too long. the story is at its peak rn and continuing it wouldn't be interesting. ending the show is the perfect way to close the show and the story. and plus a new spinoff called georgie and mandy is coming out as well, so ig we'd get to see something different there as well.

      @@user-hv7ud5gi8l exactly. People have gotten used to these steroid runs (and BBT was one of them, it probably could've ended three or four seasons earlier) that they forget seven seasons is actually healthy and matches some all-time classics. Just because The Simpsons has made it to the 35th or 36th season doesn't mean everything needs to go for eternity. 7 seasons is a good time to wrap a show up, it goes out before it really exhausts its stay.

      When the actors are at the end of their contracts, networks and showrunners, look at the future ratings, cost of production, strength of syndication, streaming programming, and pull a show down at the top of its form. YS could have proceeded without the Dad. The spinoff is exactly that, but with the highest paid actors and their costs written out.
