YOUNG SHELDON SWEET US FAMILY LAUGHS KATHLEEN MADIGAN: HUNTING BIGFOOT

SITCOM PREQUEL

This Big Bang Theory prequel is a warm and much more generally appealing show than the original, and stars Big

Little Lies’ Iain Armitage as the genius boy of the title (below). His mum is played by Zoe Perry – whose own mother, Laurie Metcalf, played Sheldon’s mum on the original show. Netflix

WARM STAND-UP SHOW

Madigan has yet to make a big impact in the UK, but this warm and funny set from the American may change all that. Her brand of blue-collar humour is smart and accessible, and deserves an audience. Amazon Prime Video
