This whole thing reminds me of that "dress" that was either blue and black or white and gold – everyone saw it differently. Perhaps this "inconsistency" is open to interpretation? Maybe it's just a clever bit of misdirection by the writers, a meta-narrative commentary on the unreliable nature of memory and storytelling itself. Or maybe they just messed up. Who knows? Either way, it's got people talking, right? And isn't that the point of a good show? To spark conversation, debate, and maybe even a little friendly disagreement? It’s created this shared experience, a collective puzzle we’re all trying to solve. And, let’s be honest, any excuse to rewatch both series is a good one, right? So grab your popcorn, settle in, and let the debate begin! 🍿

I've binged both series multiple times and the discrepancies honestly break my heart a little. It's like finding out your childhood hero isn't who you thought they were. The inconsistency with Sheldon's childhood makes me question the entire premise of Young Sheldon. Is it a genuine prequel or just a cash grab riding the coattails of TBBT's success? It takes away from the emotional depth of the character development we see in the later series and cheapens the overall narrative. I'm struggling with whether to forgive these inconsistencies for the sake of entertainment or hold the creators accountable for damaging a beloved character's legacy.

They should've consulted with Jim Parsons before writing Young Sheldon. Just sayin'.

This is why spin-offs are always problematic. They mess with the original story.
