It is very interesting to view a world that is alien to most of us, and to watch the personal stories of the real people involved. I am binging season one, which is mesmerizing. ... One thing is clear from watching this — there are many injustices (punishing inmates for getting jumped, for example, as if they wanted to be assaulted), and areas where improvements could easily be made. For example, why don't they institute an in-house mail system so that inmates could send letters to other inmates rather than de facto forcing them them to send messages through toilets? (ugh!). How hard would it be to hire a person for two hours a day, or bring in volunteers to deliver the mail? And why didn't they send the men who purposely flooded cells with toilet waste to solitary? ... These are human beings, not wild boars.. I don't know why they can't treat them as human beings. You can still have order in confinement without robbing people of every shred of humanity.

Has cinematic merit, deep metaphors, and a simple story about a boy's relationship with his father and how that shaped him. BUT, it was very, very drawn out, stuck in a period of maybe 2 years, that went on forever. (My tailbone wanted to scream). You're like "Yes, I clearly get the gist of this relationship.. now can we move on already?!" The beach ending was like a drama class skit; it was nice in theory, but could have been better. There was a cameo of Sean Penn walking. I wanted more than the basic repetitive theme with the brothers and/or boy with father. It was done to death with nothing else added in for interest.

Young Sheldon is one of the most entertaining shows on television... the writing is brilliant .. the casting is perfect .. it's funny, it's clever, and it's never dull. I have enjoyed every minute of every episode! .. I hope this series is around for at least a couple more seasons. Obviously it can't go on forever, as child stars grow up.. but I will be watching as long as they are cranking out episodes.
