Wow, the trailer reminds you of just how fraught with problems the Cooper family is right now. Honestly, this does not bode well for comedy in the upcoming season.

Ian's adult voice will take some getting used to. 😲

If I were in charge of the plot development for the show, I’d be very tempted to walk back the George and Mary marital problems just to watch the social media fans, show frenemies, and trolls duke it out online and see what future seems to be the favorite.

I feel like it's more of a dramedy at this point.

Will they still try to pass the twins off as 12? Iain's latest voice change will be jarring to some viewers, but it was jarring to me to see the young episodes for the first time last year. I'm still looking forward to new episodes.

Unless they somehow time skipped and we see Mandy holding a baby, then no. Looks like we pick right up where we left off.

‘Young Sheldon’: Rachel Bay Jones & Will Sasso Join CBS Comedy As Recurring

Quote

Rachel Bay Jones and Will Sasso have joined Young Sheldon. The pair will have recurring guest roles on the current season of the CBS sitcom as the parents of Mandy (Emily Osment).

[Bethany]

Quote

Sasso is playing Jim McCallister, Mandy’s good-natured father who owns the local tire store.

Hmm.  Coincidence or a sign of things to come for Georgie, aka Dr. Tire?

And

Quote

 The news that Mandy is having Georgie’s baby has put Jim in the crossfire between his pregnant daughter and stubborn wife.

Another married couple straight out of Lorre-Land.  The domineering wife and the henpecked husband.  Great, just great.

Yes, another Lorre ballbuster.

I think Mandy’s dad probably bought the tire place from Herschel. That’s my theory.

[januaryman]

I barely care about Mandy - though Emily Osment could carry a show of her own - and now her parents are going to tie up screen time from the regulars? I guess some would be happy with less Sheldon.

“‘Young Sheldon’ has been renewed for three more seasons at CBS. That means the ‘Big Bang Theory’ prequel series will be on the air until at least 2024” (Variety, Mar 30, 2021 1:15pm PT).

That was for seasons 5, 6 and 7.

Just read of the passing of Lance Reddick.  Best known for The Wire, we know him here as Sheldon’s strict engineering professor. Only 60 - too soon! Rest in peace.

After all those quotes from Chuck about not continuing BBT unless the entire cast was in it I doubt he'd want to re-cast Leonard and Penny in a spin-off.  He even says it's not about the money for him.  I can't see the audience going for that either.  But the entire cast doesn't have to be in a spin-off.  And I'm sure their salaries would be worth it because these shows are gold mines.  This is great news!

Yes to all of the above.
Plus, most of the OG cast have kept busy (which is good) but not too busy — which might be even better for the odds of them wanting to join such a project.

They only announced that the new series is set in the BBT universe and Variety says it will be one hour episodes. That makes me think it’s going to be a Young Sheldon spin-off dramedy. It would be hard to spin off any of the BBT characters in a dramedy.

The women seem to be the busiest!  All three have series, and Mayim also has Jeopardy. Her series was just cancelled, though.

I was wondering that too!  And based on the picture in @Tom Holmberg post Sheldon does not look like someone who just turned 13 (not that he did last year either).  I am thinking they will have to time jump or change the child playing that baby as well!

Yes and yes, although fortunately Ian had a rounded, baby face, and Sheldon from TBBT was very tall.

With news that the strike has tentatively been settled I am anxiously waiting for some indication as to when we can expect to see new episodes of Young Sheldon!  As noted upthread the longer this takes the less Sheldon and Missy are going to be able to pass for 13!
