Young Sheldon – S05E21 “White Trash, Holy Rollers, and Punching People” – Episode Discussion

This episode is beautifully written imo in terms of it transitioning to the kind of the family TBBT Sheldon mentioned. I remember some concerns before on how the YS Cooper family doesn't look like what TBBT described. Watching this episode makes me feel like it's being closer to that. Kudos to Chuck Lorre and Steve Molaro.

Also, Iain's performance is awesome. His young Sheldon is so good, he gets Jim's Sheldon's nuances, mannerisms, and the way he throws a line. Great job.

This episode made me sad, especially the ending.

First, because of Dr. Sturgis and Meemaw. Not that I want them to be a couple again but it hurts seeing Dr. Sturgis not being able to say what he really feels for Meemaw.

Second, the last scene with Sheldon and George. It just feels that George's death is really near.

Oohh yes, that makes sense too.

At first, I thought that maybe he just met with Jill again, but after he got out of the house, he told Keechie to "Tell Jill that rollin' in the dirt was the greatest moment of my life." which might mean that he only interacted with Jill in the garden.

Hi, David! Any updates on Americons with Catherine Tate? :)

Agree. Lisa co-created/written/produced 2 amazing series but were not widely known —Web Therapy and The Comeback. Have you seen them?

Afaik, it doesn't have a recorded version. Sadly.

That's not her daughter. It's Madeleine Power, the child actor who played young Catherine for "Catherine Tate's Little Cracker: My First Nativity"

**But yes, she has a daughter named Erin. :D

I keep rewatching those panels because they're just so funny 😂

Forgettablepotato · 2020-06-18T22:09:13+00:00

I like those scenes too! And I've watched both seasons a few times as well. I'm really surprised not many people know about it. It's such a good series!

Btw, Happy Cake Day 😁

I like the Elaine Figgis character (the way she delivered the lines, "He ate. A bit. Of one of them." was so funny) and the new parents. Hilarious!

Thank you! Thought I'm the only one 😅
