How The Age Differences Played A Part In The Show's Storytelling
The Young Sheldon cast keeps the age differences quite small compared to other TV shows, so it doesn't impact the storytelling too much. However, there is one particular case in which it does and that is with Sheldon's older brother, Georgie. Georgie's romances in Young Sheldonwere always a smaller part of the series until there was the introduction of his girlfriend Mandy. Though this became one of the main relationships in the series, it was also the most problematic, as George was 17 when...
