Young Sheldon | The Story of my mother had me tested | Sheldon Cooper | Marry Cooper | Missy Cooper 

Leonard: ARE YOU CRAZY??? Sheldon: No, my mother had me tested

His iconic says "I'm not insane, my mother had me tested"

You know, for a guy who didn’t have a handle on sarcasm as an adult, Sheldon sure seemed to master it as a child.

"Violent fantasies. Interesting." Am I the only one who heard this in Leonard's mother's voice?

The true beauty of this show is that they got Laurie Metcalf's (Sheldon's mother in TBBT) daughter to play her younger self. Zoe Perry has her mother's looks, as well as her voice and mannerisms down to an art, and creates a seamless bridge between young and old. Smartest casting a television series has ever made in my opinion!

Missy is really so smart. In a way that Sheldon could never be.

It turned out so sweet and loving in the end. Adore how she snapped at the psychologist for trying to take credit.

I love this scene it shows how despite there differences Sheldon really does love his mom.

Missy and Sheldon are the most perfect example of being book smart and street smart

1:11 violent fantasies, interesting.... He said it like Beverly hofstadter.

In big bang theory Sheldon brings this up many times when people call him crazy and his mother even said that she 'regrets not following up with that specialist in Houston'😂

Sheldon: You know, fits of rage are a classic sign of a psychosis. Mom: Oh, you haven't seen fits of rage, yet! XD XD

This scene shows Sheldon having an extremely good grasp over sarcasm. How do they not see the plotholes. 🤦‍♂️

Am I the only one who wants a show about Leonard’s childhood? 😭

Therapist: You see how valuable a little communication is- Mrs.Cooper: You do not take credit for this! 100% Material Authority right there

The more one watches this show - you realize that Mary is actually where Sheldon gets his negative qualities from.

Actually, Mary's concern was quite valid. Psychologists say there's a fine line between genius and insanity. Some of the smartest people I've ever known have also been the most eccentric.

“You cannot take credit for this “😂

Mary is a fine mom. When you love someone, you are naturally concerned about their well being. She isn't overdoing anything.

The way Sheldon mom acts is incredible Good

Missy and Memaw are the best.

As someone who *has* been tested... Sheldon was not tested 😅

well hats off to the actor who played sheldon's mother because that expression at 2:42 perfectly reflects the feelings of a heartbroken and lost and quietly terrified mother

I love this show, but they are getting to the point that they may have to consider a divergent time line from TBBT. Since if they don't eventually his dad will have to cheat on his mom and then die.

This almost had me in tears until Mary came back with that attack on the Therapist!

I think the psychiatrist made a fantastic job here (also when he is a bit weird for comedic purposes). He didn't tell them what's wrong but helped them to talk about the right questions. The last gag wasn't necessary but it actually shows that it is not the psychiatrists but the one of the patient.

Mary should have taken Sheldon to that specialist in Houston.

It's actually hard to tell here if Mary's getting Sheldon tested or if she knew this was a situation between her and Sheldon that would not resolve itself easily. So, she thought a professional's input and mediation might help. And it did. I think it's better than just saying "I don't want to hear about it again!" to a child because the parent is conflicted about something they can't seem to figure out on their own. Mary's like most parents. She's not perfect and she doesn't always have the answer but she's wise and any child would be blessed to have her as a Mama

Wow! So rich in layers! Sheldon and his mom, both headstrong and competetive. And... behind that? Deep felt love and concern for one another... once you've broken through the competitive layer.... which takes it's time...

"I'm sorry I caused you so much concern"

I think this is the best of Sheldon being sarcastic.... And they say he doesn't understand sarcasm,😂😂..

So he never actually got 'tested.' I assumed he had a psychiatric evaluation, not just a communication breakthrough with his Mom during therapy. Huh.

Actor's in Young sheldon, All of them, Are really Brilliant. Acting wise. All damn good. 💯.

his mother , Mary. she may have her faults but there is one thing she is, TOUGH.

You know, for a kid who many times misses when sarcasm is thrown his way, he is GREAT at it, with the sass included lmao

Savage sheldon

0:46 young sheldon most savage face

The actress playing Mary is so good.

I love missy and how funny she is

The Origin of "Sheldon's not crazy. His mother had him tested".

"And I'm not insane, my mother had me tested."

I love how this show takes on tbbt Jokes so good.

Imagine if they got Jim Parsons or Johnny Galecki to cameo as the psychiatrist lol

I love how Mary is a good and loving mother to her children. She worries about them especially Sheldon since he is the youngest. I am the youngest in my family amd my mom still worries about me even tho in about to be 28 years old lol

Sign says "#1 Child Therapist in the Penny Saver. " Now that is a major accomplishment

In the future Sheldon is like “I’m not crazy I got tested” but here he’s offended he got tested.

Sheldon definitely gets his craziness from his mother

"See how valuable a little communcation can b-" "You DO NOT take credit for this" 😂😂😂😂

"You do not take credit for the!" Love it lol 😂😂

Wow, this is like me and my mother right down to the fits of anger and my monotoned voice.

0:50 - “#1 Child Therapist in the Pennysaver”

Some say Sheldon gets his craziness from his mother

I think Mary is right here for once. Sheldon does show signs of being more than an eccentric genius, since he is the only child in his family who acts like this I would be having him tested to see if it could become more than issue when he becomes an adult. From TBBT, we see it doesn’t become violent or anything really bad but it is still a problem (Sheldon doesn’t change but it’s harder to get away with his cruel unintentional insults and forcing others to make excuses for bad actions as an adult) but how could they know in Young Sheldon? Although Sheldon was never diagnosed with anything, I still think he is quite high up on the autism spectrum. Maybe he was not diagnosed due to the time period and people are less likely to be properly tested as an adult. Sheldon issues’s are never properly addressed in Young Sheldon or TBBT, which could have been detrimental.

The way Sheldon looked at his mom was a mood😂

SUCH A CUTE MOMENT, i love hug scenes, tickle scenes, AND MOST ADORIBLE SCENE THERE IS, GOOD JOB, directors for Young Sheldon, GOOD JOB

must say this show is by far the best Family Show ever in the decade. Love to the Whole Sheldon Team

Wow finally the episode came out

Mary honestly drives me nuts lol Missy on the other hand is the best character

The way the mom shuts him up Like dont ruin the moment😂

I didn't know this show was going to be so amazing.

"Violent fantasies 'interesting'" 🤣

I never was able to get into this "Young Sheldon" show. 😕 I'm a big fan of Big Bang Theory after my wife introduced me to it, and one of my favorite things about the show is Sheldon because of how I can relate to him. Not because I'm a super genius hehe, but because Sheldons character clearly has some form of autism like I do (high-functioning autism). 🙂 My wife thought it would be funny for me to see a show with a character who were a bit like me. 😂 And I love seeing Sheldons "moments", where he acts like an extreme version of how I am at a daily basis. It both makes me laugh, but also gives me a "helicopter view" on how others low-key view me at a daily basis, which is very interesting. 🙂 Adult Sheldon in Big Bang isn't mean to people on purpose, but is so unknowingly because of his lack of social skills. And when things don't go his way, or his routine is broken, Sheldon has meltdowns. And then we have Young Sheldon... Which makes him seem like a mean little "Sherlock Holmes" who manipulates everyone around him because "he knows he is smarter than them", while not acting like a kid his age. It is so far out of character from the adult Sheldon I loved watching in Big Bang Theory. 😕 I also noticed that young Sheldon clearly understands sarcasm... 😅 Which is one of the key quirks adult Sheldon struggle with trying to learn. It is VERY odd to see a young Sheldon, who is MUCH better socially than adult Sheldon. Kind of like his social skills regressed as an adult. And yes... Not understanding sarcasm means you won't be able to perform sarcasm. I see people in the comments defending the plot holes like this one saying "you can be sarcastic even if you don't understand it". Which is not true in Sheldons case hehe. 🙂 There is a BIG difference between "not understanding sarcasm", and "not knowing how to read sarcasm". One is a complete lack in understanding it (which adult Sheldon has), and the other is a typical autistic trait where 'emotion recognition and expression' is lacking (which I have). But in the end it doesn't really matter... Young Sheldon is clearly meant for a different target audience than Big Bang Theory was. They took the "Sheldon brand" and went a different direction with it, and people seem to enjoy it for what it is. 🙂 It's just too bad seeing some of the Big Bang Theory fans being disappointed when they start watching Young Sheldon expecting it to give off the same energy as Sheldon did in Big Bang Theory.

Well she might think she's being a good mother but coddling him and letting him get away with most of his behavior is setting him up for failure when it comes to normal human interactions. Proven by the adult sheldon and his life

If I would've spoken like that to mother, my father would have blasted me right off my chair.

Watching while I eat peanut butter and butter toast

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Sheldon being sarcastic at the beginning of the video - thought he could not understand sarcasm

it’s the “you don’t take credit for this” for me

Sheldon in this episode is so funny

That is true. Geniuses are too cool for people to understand them

Best episode ever

"You do not take credit for this"!! Where do the smarts come from I wonder!! LOL!!

I would never have spoken to my parents like this. I wouldn’t even have thought about speaking to them.

I love this

I'm most surprised that the therapist didn't ask "Ok who's this Dr. Sturgis?"

See how little communication helps "Can u not take credit for this"

3:55 he literally said interesting like lenord’s mom lol

“ You do not take credit for this” Oh my God I love her

Love the monkees song salesman.

At the end, I was expecting Sheldon or Mary to say “Do you mind? We’re having a moment here.” 😂

3:09 is why I love Mary.

I think the professional actually did provide a comfortable environment for them to discuss the issue, for which he should be given the credit. Sometimes a home environment does not necessarily enable such discussions.

My parents would slapped the crap out of me if I talked back to them like Sheldon.

I didn’t know Sheldon was capable of sarcasm

Every Mom Ever "You do not take credit for this!"

So here is the proof that Sheldon was alway good with sarcasm

Sheldon being very very smart for 3:55

love meemaws reaction to the genetic comment.

A good lesson: Be careful how you approach an intellect.

Poor guy, always gets yelled at by Sheldon's mom. right on right on

You do not take credit for this! - Hilarious

and there you go, they managed to take all of the commedy out of this.

"Although sometimes I wonder if I should've taken him to that specialist in Houston."

Mary was the perfect mother for sheldon

Thumbs-Up #616 here Thursday late afternoon 6 August 2020! I like Mom’s quip at the “Psychologist’s” summary of the situation “do not take credit for this!”. 😆

So sheldon never actually got tested? His mum just talked to him. Worst outcome ever 😔

I think in an episode before this one he says to his brother Georgie "I am not crazy you now mom got me tested" or something.... I am not sure but I think I remember something like thism

Sheldon is so savage in this episode😜😂

Oh wow, telling your kid the truth worked.

I can tell you right now that if I even began to get a tone with my mother I got my ass paddled. And if it was my dad who caught me I wasn’t sitting comfortably for at least 2 weeks.
