5 Best Young Sheldon Episodes to Rewatch While Waiting for S7, Ranked by IMDb
As the Actors’ Strike is still ongoing, it’s time for a rewatch.
One thing that viewers of all current shows have become extremely fearful of as the SAG-AFTRA strike continues is the possibility of cancellations. Since this has already happened to a number of shows on various platforms, people are getting more and more worried about their favorites. This includes fans of CBS' Young Sheldon.
As of today, however, there is no indication that the actors or the production team behind the show are even considering such a possibility. Instead, the general hope is that once the strike issue is resolved, the production of the upcoming season 7 will begin.
Until then, all fans have to look forward to are the episodes that have already aired. And if you don't want to spend your time on all the six seasons, you can check out this list of the top five best-rated episodes by IMDb fans.
5. A God-Fearin' Baptist and a Hot Trophy Husband — 8.1/10
There is no better episode to explore the Cooper family dynamic while introducing someone new to it than this one. Brilliantly written and filled with one-liners, yet very delicate about the sensitive topic of pregnancy, this is the episode to rewatch to understand everything you need to know about other characters, apart from Sheldon.
4. An 8-Bit Princess and a Flat Tire Genius — 8.1/10
All episodes centered around Sheldon and Meemaw hold a special place in the hearts of Young Sheldon fans, but this one is especially well-received because of the concept. Plus, the video game connection reminds all the original fans of the nerdy side of The Big Bang Theory universe that they first fell in love with.
3. A Secret Letter and a Lowly Disc of Processed Meat — 8.2/10
This episode was a great finale to season 3 and got people excited to continue watching this show, with or without The Big Bang Theory. Even though there were different opinions about Mary's decisions and George's reactions to them, that's what made the family dynamic so complex and thus interesting to watch.
2. A Tornado, a 10-Hour Flight and a Darn Fine Ring — 8.5/10
A heartfelt season 6 finale left no one indifferent. From Missy finally getting some much-needed reassurance from her father and Sheldon going to Germany to the whole town being hit by the tornado that left Meemaw's house in ruins, this episode stood no chance not to be emotional.
1. A Swedish Science Thing and the Equation for Toast — 8.6/10
This episode felt very special to the vast majority of viewers because of the last two minutes and the tribute it paid to the original The Big Bang Theory characters. It's both heartwarming to see their child versions and a little sad that we never really got to know their backstories in detail. This beautiful moment alone deserves to top the list.
