That was good, nice touch to have Jim Parsons narrating bits.

I’m uncertain about it. The first episode was pretty much in the previews in its entirety.

Will give it a few more and see what it’s like.

For those who don't have access to the US episodes, C4 have confirmed they have signed the rights and it's tentatively scheduled for broadcast on E4 sometime after Spring 2018.

Just watched the first episode. A bit meh. Texan accents a bit unfathomable at times. The stand-out moment by far was the "moustache" comment, and quite possibly worth watching for that alone.

It reminded me a bit of the Wonder Years.

Is Sheldon's big brother mentioned in The Big Bang Theory? I don't remember it if he has.

I think he's been mentioned a few times. He turned out a typical redneck with a drink problem and an IQ in single figures.

I enjoyed it, it's quiet sweet really rather than out and out funny.

His family is a lot less dysfunctional than it seemed to me when he talked about it on TBBT.

For me, it's slightly better than series 853 or whatever of TBBT.

Also - Sheldon's 'Mom' in this, played by Sheldon's 'Moms' Daughter from TBBT. Both hot too I don't mind admitting.

I didn't enjoy this much.

At what age is Sheldon's father supposed to have died ?.....or have they glossed over that small detail for this ?

When he was 15, so about 6 years from this series.
