Can we talk about how Sheldon basically slandered his father for 12 seasons in TBBT?
After finishing Young Sheldon, watching TBBT again feels weird. Sheldon spent years describing George Sr. as a lazy, cheating alcoholic, but the prequel shows he was a dedicated, supportive father who barely ever drank to losing the ability to stand straight. Is Sheldon just an unreliable narrator, or did the writers completely retcon George’s character to make him likable? It makes Sheldon look incredibly ungrateful in the later years.
