Sill rocky uncertain genre but i think the episode was actually way better than the premiere
Aktham_Tashtush3 November 2017
So i saw a couple critics review and they were mostly like "Young Sheldon is back Strong ...etc" but i totally disagree , yeah it was "stronger" than the first episode.

The script this time was more organized , had more laughable moments which even when the genre was a bit vague, in here it gave the show a solid structure to be more comedic than narrative ,, by the way i'm being candid and forthright because when you watch for Chuck Lorre top rated award winning sitcoms like "Two and a Half Men", "Mike & Molly", "Mom" and "The Big Bang Theory" i can't just stay shut and settle for a weaker performance.

But light at the end of the tunnel is where i mentioned that it is getting more into real comedy and the script is funnier so , fingers crossed.

As a fan of Chuck and the original show i will keep on watching and i think it will get better.

Making Rockets and Friends
claudio_carvalho29 June 2023
When Mary Cooper sees Sheldon eating alone in the cafeteria, she is worried with the situation. Sheldon loves to be alone to think, but decides to please his beloved mother and borrows a book from the school library to learn how to make friends. The system fails but he meets the Vietnamese Tam that also wants to make friends and loves also rockets' design.

"Rockets, Communists, and the Dewey Decimal System" is another hilarious episode of "Young Sheldon". Sheldon trying to make friends is very funny and he is not able to understand the explanation of Ms. Ingram due to his naivety. Tam having dinner with the Cooper family and the FBI agents at the Cooper's home are also extremely funny situations. My vote is eight.

I thought this was a great episode. Mom wants Sheldon to make a friend so of course he goes to extremes to try to make one. The best part was when he did and bought hom over as a dinner guest. Some halious moments there. Memaw should have been included with the dinner guests, why it got a 9. Overall, a very funny episode.

Warning: Spoilers
The father son relationship is at its best in this episode. "Hell is other people" He would find that true. Elf reference!!! Great nestalgia reference. You gotta give respect to the team behind Sheldon looking into the universe. Really interesting that they use real life references such as the book he reads. Each scene is shot with perfect lighting. Props to the team. Watching children act like adults is always super charming. After watching this episode I plan on reading that self help book. Testing out small talk is the best scene of the episode. Cracking up over the conversations with his teachers. Hilarious that his mom checks in on him at lunch. I can't believe I can relate so much to a kid who doesn't want to go to recess!!! Navigating the halls is adorable. Glad to see so many powerful female role models for this time frame. Momming at lunch is a very funny situation. Emotionally troubled adults and Sheldon equal an A+!

Rockets, Communists, and the Dewey Decimal System

Another very nice episode of this prequel, with Iain Armitage again being the perfect Young Sheldon, displaying many of the qualities we would come to expect in his later life shown on 'The Big Bang Theory'.

The other characters still seem a bit underdeveloped at this stage, but I'm sure that will come in time.
