Spinoff

 Caught up with Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage and it really is a good show. What a smooth first season and it totally gets what makes a broadcast comedy work, fun and heartwarming with compelling emotional beats from time to time. Also, they make good use of Young Sheldon characters and storylines. Some spinoffs forget the universe of the show where they came from to establish itself on its own quickly but this one doesn't ignore where they came from and makes good use of the predecessor's storylines to connect to the new show without making this spinoff feel just like an extension only

I'm really impressed how this same Sheldonverse team can transition back to multicam, it doesn't feel off at all. And one last thing, the retcon they made to Mandy's brother Conner was so good and the character is so lovable already that this early on I could see it becoming another spinoff
