If it went as far as TBBT then we could see it go full circle-Iain will be 18/19 years old by then.

Two great actors, there's no way ordinary actors can portray annoying personalities so convincingly.

I love how laurie metcalfe's daughter plays the mum in young sheldon. When I first watched it I was like my god she really looks like the original Mary Cooper. Looking at the cast and who she was I then found out she was her daughter! Great casting!

Young Leonard probably would be a depressing show as he always just wants his mother's approval while she used him for research. Young howard would be about any tiny nerd in high school who is weirdly confident around girls.
