Improvement overall to the initial bad start

Warning: Spoilers
The show started with a lot of criticism and that the young Sheldon was rather, let's say.. Arrogant. What people forget to understand that initially in The Big Bang Theory in Season 3 Episode 22 - The Stair Case Implementation. We saw the similarities in Sheldon Cooper too. What we have known Sheldon now as is much different. Young Sheldon was always confused about new things but at the same time was smart. He hasn't experienced the stuff yet.

Now, coming to the show itself. Young Sheldon started with a rather fun tone but it went on ahead in a confusing manner. I wasn't sure if it was funny either. That was Episode 1. Episode 2, turned out to be pretty good. Now this Episode was really good. What I like about this is, that they implemented the NON audience laugh method. Ie Single Camera production method. This episode is something where I could see Sheldon Cooper being himself. Being funny yet understanding how the world works. His mother, of course is one of the nicest people in the show. But I could see his brother being good too. I always thought he would be more of a bully than anything else. And of course who can forget MeeMOW (Not sure if I spelled that right) I am still waiting for her to do the Napkin trick for him. There is so much to see in this series. And it has it's potential. Though I really hope the script doesn't latch onto everything what was referred to in The Big Bang Theory else it would just end quite quickly. And there is a need for giving his mother's side of story more attention. I am looking forward to the next episode, though I really hope this doesn't turn out to be a hit and miss show. It lacks details. It has to create that in a better way.

Grandmother, Poker and Blaise Pascal

Meemaw is babysitting the children and teaching Sheldon how to bluff in a poker game. George Sr. And Mary arrive at home and soon George Sr. Does not feel well, and Mary goes with him to the hospital. Meemaw babysits them again, but when Georgie comes home, he decides to "borrow" Meemaw's car and go with Sheldon and Missy to see how his father is.

"Poker, Faith and Eggs" is another hilarious episode of "Young Sheldon". In this episode, the viewer is introduced to the free-spirited Meemaw, who steals the show. First teaching poker to her grandson and then in the hospital, she really supersedes Sheldon in this show. George driving her car is another funny moment of the show. My vote is eight.

Poker, Faith and Eggs

Anne Potts comes into the show and does what she's been doing her whole career - absolutely stealing scenes from the sidelines in highly comedic fashion. Whoever had the idea of bringing her in to the cast of 'Young Sheldon' needs praising.

I thought this was another quick moving and entertaining episode, with it being hard to beleive that it's only the third episode because the formula/cast seems to have gelled so well so quickly.

We are learning a bit more about how Sheldon became the man we saw in 'The Big Bang Theory' for twelve years episode on episode, and there was some nice pathos here too.

"Let there be light"

The light before the creation of the Sun is the light in the next-world (The Afterlife). There are many producers in LA with no real knowledge of the Bible. The days of creation for example are more levels in creation. That was said in Judaism- before the "Big Bang" theory.
