The Big Bang Theory necessarily changed moments and character arcs that Young Sheldon established. Different phases of Sheldon’s life being recounted in Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory inevitably created plot holes that made retcons necessary in the prequel series, especially considering how the perspective of one sitcom sometimes diverged from that of the other.
However, that’s not how The Big Bang Theory depicted Georgie and Mandy. While Sheldon mentioned how Georgie’s first wife remembered him and congratulated him after he and Amy won the Nobel Prize, Sheldon still saw Georgie’s various marriages as a failure and depicted them as such the rare times he discussed his older brother in TBBT.
Still, The Big Bang Theory not only revealed how Missy’s “dumb teenage” phase continued well after George Sr.’s death but also eventually gave adult Missy’s story a sad ending, as the Coopers’ trip to Pasadena for Amy and Sheldon’s wedding highlighted her unhappiness and Mary’s inclination to dismiss her. Indeed, despite Young Sheldon hinting at Missy changing her ways or trying hard to do so, The Big Bang Theory still gave her story an unhappy turn, unlike Sheldon’s or Georgie’s.
8 Meemaw Not Being Harsh Meemaw In Young Sheldon Greatly Differs From Her TBBT Version Meemaw had always been an important part of Sheldon’s life, but Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory portrayed her in very different ways. Indeed, Meemaw’s behavior and approach in Young Sheldon always appeared as freer, especially when compared to Mary, who tended to be stricter.
6 George Sr.'s Bond With Sheldon Sheldon Did Not Have Kind Words For George In TBBT Young Sheldon never shied away from showing how much George Sr. struggled to connect with Sheldon, and this was especially true in the prequel series’ first seasons. Young Sheldon nevertheless portrayed George Cooper Sr. as a family man who might get it wrong sometimes, but always tried, thus making him a positive figure in all of the Coopers’ lives, with Sheldon not being an exception.
However, The Big Bang Theory season 12 oddly introduced Tam as one of Sheldon’s enemies, despite Young Sheldon season 7 showing Tam more upset at Sheldon’s disregard of his stories than the other way around. The Big Bang Theory season 12, episode 4 eventually got Sheldon and Tam to reconcile, but it still never explained why Tam and Sheldon’s perspectives of their last meeting changed so much between Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory.
