Young Sheldon is a prequel to The Big Bang Theory following 9-year-old Sheldon Cooper as he navigates high school in East Texas during the late 1980s and early 1990s. The series shows how the brilliant but socially awkward child genius struggles to fit in with his family, classmates, and neighbors while being four grades ahead of his peers. Narrated by Jim Parsons reprising his role as adult Sheldon, the show explores his relationships with his twin sister Missy, older brother Georgie, and parents Mary and George Sr. The series combines family comedy with the challenges of raising an exceptional child in a working-class household.
