CBS renews 'Young Sheldon' for Season 2
Whenever Big Bang wraps up for good, CBS still has spinoff Young Sheldon in its back pocket. Unlike many of CBS' other failed attempts at recapturing the half-hour comedy success of "Big Bang Theory", "Young Sheldon" has become the number 1 new comedy of the season with a 2.4 average rating in the coveted adults 18-49 demographic up until this point.
The show, which focuses on Jim Parsons' character Sheldon Cooper, stars Ian Armitage with Parsons as narrator. After more than 10 seasons of dumb blond jokes (poor Penny), tone-deaf cracks at Raj's accent, and, more recently, the revival of that bad trope of men being jealous about their wives' work success and colleagues of the opposite sex, we now know when the sitcom will probably tie off its storylines and ride off into the Netflix archives.

"Young Sheldon has made a huge impact on our schedule in the short time it's been on the air", CBS Entertainment president Kelly Kahl said. "We can't wait to see Chuck, Steve, Jim and Todd [Spiewak]'s vision for how the Cooper family deals with Sheldon growing a year older...and smarter". If Season 12 is the end, the BBT universe could live on through spin-off Young Sheldon, which was renewed earlier on Saturday. The show is produced by Chuck Lorre, Steven Molaro, Jim Parsons and Todd Spiewak.
