'Young Sheldon' Joins Nick At Nite

Young Sheldon is heading to Nickelodeon. In an off-network sale, TV’s No. 1 comedy series is being added to Nick at Nite, Nickelodeon’s nighttime programming block, this fall.

The first three seasons (65 episodes) of the CBS/WBTV sitcom will be available in November, with latter seasons coming to Nick at Nite beginning fall 2021. It will join other family comedies at Nick at Nite, including Emmy-winning series Friends, as well as George Lopez and Mom.

The Big Bang Theory spinoff stars Iain Armitage as a young Sheldon Cooper. The series follows his childhood in East Texas, as the young once-in-a-generation mind (Armitage) embarks on his innocent, awkward and hopeful journey toward the man he will become in The Big Bang Theory.

(Young Sheldon returns to CBS on Thursday nights in the fall)

If you watched the Big Bang Theory it makes it even better.

You catch all kinds of references that were made in the Big Bang Theory

and they are explained in Young Sheldon.

Sheldon and his dad visit Caltech (the California Institute of Technology).

Sheldon says to his dad
“Imagine all the stimulating conversations that must go on at these tables,” Sheldon said.
“I can see myself going here one day.”

“I think you’d fit right in,” George replied, before the camera panned out and revealed the iconic set in its entirety.

There is another one where he visits NASA.

He wonders why the rockets are not reused when they launch the space shuttle.

I think he comes up with the calculations to reuse the rockets.

Thanks to Elon Musk and his team rockets are now reused.

It is an excellent show.
