"How Will Young Sheldon Season 7's Meemaw Storyline Impact Her TBBT Character?"

 Young Sheldon season 7 episode 2 may have already revealed why Meemaw acts so disparate in The Big Bang Theory, and it's a tragic justification.



  •  Young Sheldon season 7 hints at Meemaw's downfall, foreshadowing a major character shift in The Big Bang Theory.
  •  Meemaw's reckless actions in the gambling room could lead to legal troubles, explaining her more serious demeanor in TBBT.
  •  The show implies that losing her business and facing consequences could transform Young Sheldon's carefree Meemaw into a sedate figure.


While Young Sheldon season 7 hasn't revealed the source of Meemaw's changed persona in The Big Bang Theory yet, the spinoff has hinted at one dark cause for this character shift. Although Young Sheldon is The Big Bang Theory's prequel, the show's portrayal of events doesn't always align with the canon of its predecessor.


Sheldon's mom Mary and Sheldon himself both discounted his late father as a shiftless, thoughtless philandering savored the original series, yet Young Sheldon has since revealed that George Sr was a surprisingly kind and agreeable everyman. Similarly, Meemaw's character is totally disparate in the two shows.


In The Big Bang Theory, Sheldon's grandmother, Meemaw, is a ton like his mom, Mary. A traditional, stern matriarch, she can be as humorless and stubborn as Mary or Sheldon himself. In any case, in Young Sheldon, Meemaw is portrayed as a carefree, sardonic, risk-loving dissident.


While Young Sheldon's season 6 finale saw her lose her house in a tornado, season 7 of the spinoff has not carried Sheldon's grandmother any closer to her eventual personality shift. All things considered, her house's destruction has made her significantly more reckless. Unfortunately, this could foreshadow the events that will lead to Meemaw's eventual character change.


Young Sheldon Season 7's Gambling Room Story Will End Badly

It is increasingly obvious why Sheldon's grandmother is considerably less carefree and happy in The Big Bang Theory since Young Sheldon season 7 is foreshadowing Meemaw's downfall.


In season 7, episode 2, "A Roulette Haggle Piano Playing Canine," her grandson Georgie noticed that adding a roulette wheel to their secret gambling room would take the enterprise from a legal gray area into a riskier, all the more blatantly illegal space.


Be that as it may, Meemaw's understandable desperation to revamp her house lead her to overlook Georgie and take this major risk, in any event, convincing her grandson to man the table later in the episode.



While most of Young Sheldon's cast of characters have attempted perilous schemes throughout the long term. Meemaw's escalation of her illegal business is a massive risk. Meemaw has already lost her home and her insurance didn't cover tornadoes, meaning she can't afford any potential legal dispute that could arise from the gambling room.


 That, yet Pastor Jeff agreeing to disregard her gambling room means Meemaw is probably not going to be challenged by anyone other than the police. This could be a surprisingly bad thing as, while Pastor Jeff just threatened her with consequences, a police investigation could ruin her.


Assuming Meemaw is caught by the police and her gambling room is shut down for good, that would explain why she is a substantially more staid presence in The Big Bang Theory.


It is also possible that Young Sheldon season 7's impending George Sr death could be the catalyst that makes Meemaw a more serious, less carefree person, yet this tragedy is probably not going to affect her as much as it impacts Mary.


Nonetheless, losing her business and facing legal troubles shortly after losing her house could transform Young Sheldon's wild grandmother into The Big Bang Theory's sedate Meemaw.
