Even though The Big Bang Theory has come to an end, ‘Young Sheldon’ lives on in its glory.
‘Young Sheldon’ is a spin-off from the Big Bang and portrays the life of Sheldon before he walked into our lives almost 12 years ago. The show was an instant hit with the fans who were eager to know everything that shaped up Sheldon into the unique individual we now know. The hit series is soon coming back with a season 4 but the question remains intact about season 5. Who will comprise the ‘Young Sheldon’ cast, is the ‘Young Sheldon’ season premiere scheduled for 2020. Let’s take a look at all the ‘Young Sheldon’ spoilers.
Highlights
- When will season 5 be here?
- ‘Young Sheldon’ spoilers: What is this show about?
- What should we expect in the upcoming seasons?
Just like Jim Parson played his role of an extraordinaire genius scientist beautifully, the young Sheldon Iain Armitage hasn’t disappointed for one bit either. Which is why the audiences are expecting a release date for Season 5 soon.

When will season 5 be here?
Chuck Lorre and Steve Molaro’s leadership on the show together has made the show successful enough to have the second-highest rating next to the original inspiration The Big Bang Theory. After the release of season 3, it was announced that the show had been renewed for 2 more years in production.
Although it wasn’t a surprise after the huge success of the first three seasons, a renewal for the next two years was definitely in the bag. The fans gladly took the announcement for another two seasons as a way to cope with the sadness of seeing elder Sheldon leave. And while the fourth season of the show is to release this September, no official announcement has been made on what happens next. Fans are hoping for a ‘Young Sheldon’ season premiere in 2020.
Perhaps, it’s the global pandemic which has put a standstill on the world or perhaps it is them waiting to see how the fourth season pans out as the fans have said goodbye to the older Sheldon, but there has been no information on when the production for the next season will start. At least, we know that the ‘Young Sheldon’ cast will remain intact. No other ‘Young Sheldon’ spoilers have been revealed yet for the upcoming seasons.

What is this show about?
This comedy follows the life of Sheldon played by the talented 11-year-old Iain Armitage (famous for his role as Ziggy in Big Little Lies) before we knew him. A young, gifted, naive Sheldon doesn’t fit with his more than normal family who are what one could describe as your everyday Texas family.
A bunch of non-intellectuals, according to young Sheldon, who has skipped four grades thanks to his amazing mind, he doesn’t understand the world like everyone else. A twin sister Missy played by Raegan Revord, who despite the competition is his biggest ally, a Texas mother who loves and nurtures her young son beyond reason, and a father who doesn’t understand his son at all. This is what comprises the ‘Young Sheldon’ cast and characters.
Also, let’s not forget the foul-mouthed Meemaw played by Annie Potts who likes two things in life: drinking and her unique talented grandson.
What should we expect from the upcoming seasons?
Season 3 ending saw Sheldon visiting his future Alma mater Caltech with his father where he would one day convene with his good friends Leonard Hofstadter, Howard Wolowitz, and Raj Koothrappali.
“Imagine all the stimulating conversations that must go on at these tables. I can see myself going here one day.” Ah, little did he know that he was very right in thinking so.
Knowing from the older Sheldon, his childhood wasn’t so great. Thanks to his lack of emotions and general aloofness which can only be perceived as indifference, we never thought much about it.
A lot of guesses at this point. But after a closer look at Sheldon’s life in ‘Young Sheldon’, you realise how much of those traumatic experiences such as losing a father to alcoholism, the constant bickering between his parents, feeling not understood and alone shaped him to be the Sheldon we now know. And you can’t help feeling a little sad. Maybe the creators will choose to go this way and turn the sitcom into something darker and with a little drama perhaps. Only time will tell.

Till then here’s to hoping whatever the creators choose to have as the next storyline it won’t be the one where we say goodbye to Sheldon. Saying good-bye to one has already proved hard enough. We wait eagerly for a ‘Young Sheldon’ season premiere in 2020.
What do you think? When can we see him coming back on the screen? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
Why does Sheldon knock on the door thrice?
In the episode titled “The Hot Tub Contamination”, Sheldon confides in Penny that he knocks doors thrice because of childhood trauma. He explained that he caught his father cheating on his mother because he failed to knock long enough for his father and his mistress to get their clothes on.
Are Sheldon and Missy twins in real life?
No. Missy Cooper and Sheldon Cooper are twins on the show, but the actors are not twins in real life. In ‘Young Sheldon’, the role of Sheldon is played by Iain Armitage while the role of his twin sister Missy is played by Reagan Revord.
Who died on ‘Young Sheldon’?
Nobody has died as of yet on ‘Young Sheldon’. But it does seem like the show will move closer to the death of Sheldon’s father George Copper, who, as we know from The Big Bang Theory, died when Sheldon was a teenager.
