"Young Sheldon" premiered on Sept. 25 as a special preview to tell the story of a young, alienated, and socially awkward Sheldon Cooper. How did it fare with critics?

The first episode got a 75% rating from Rotten Tomatoes and 63% from Metacritic. Most of the positive comments focused on the amazing portrayal of Iain Armitage as young Sheldon.

Zoe Perry, who portrays Sheldon's loving and religious mother Mary, also received several admirations for her unique aura and spot-on Texas' accent. Perry is the daughter of Laurie Metcalf who plays adult Sheldon's mother in "The Big Bang Theory." Fans were also delighted to hear the familiar voice of Jim Parsons who narrates all of the turning points in young Sheldon's life. Parsons has been direct in coaching and guiding Armitage to fully catch the full essence of Sheldon's character as a genius.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Armitage managed to showcase Sheldon's most specific traits like being a know-it-all and his keen observation of rules, especially dress codes.

Unlike its spin-off, "The Big Bang Theory" is a multi-camera sitcom. "Young Sheldon's" creator Chuck Lorre told critics at Television Critics Association's summer press tour, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter, that this is his first single-camera project. "The working process is very different. It's much slower," Lorre said. Lorre is working alongside co-creator Steven Molaro.

The second episode will air on Thursday, Nov. 2, at 8:30 p.m. EDT on CBS. It has also been confirmed that Sheldon's loving grandmother or "Meemaw" portrayed by Annie Potts will appear in the upcoming episodes. Fans are excited to see more of young Sheldon and his dysfunctional yet loving family. Most of all, many viewers are eager to hear Sheldon use the word "Bazinga." Fans are also asking whether the other three geniuses will appear in the series.
