The same can be said for the spinoff.
“It’s interesting because there is a tonal difference betweenBig BangandYoung Sheldon,” Perry says.
“Big Bangis a multi, and now this one is a single camera.
It’ll be really interesting for audiences to see where they’re similar and how they diverge.
I think audiences are going to be really, really surprised and excited about it.”
It’s surreal."
Young Sheldon, which was ordered straight-to-series, will air sometime in the 2017-2018 season on CBS.
