Spoilers for 'Young Sheldon'

While this week sees a wonderful new episode titled 'A Pager, a Club and a Cranky Bag of Wrinkles' where we're excited to see how Sheldon Cooper manages to make friends, the next week will be a tad bit bleak in this sitcom comedy. In these months since the pandemic restrictions have been lifted, production of many shows have already begun but they are taking breaks in between to, what we would assume, make sure that they don't run out of episodes to air. 

Unfortunately, though, there isn't another new episode for two more weeks after Episode 11, so it is for the rest of the month. For the next two weeks, there will be old episodes rebroadcasted — Season 4 Episode 6 'Freshman Orientation and the Inventor of the Zipper' on Thursday, March 18, and Season 4 Episode 7 'A Philosophy Class and Worms That Can Chase You' on Thursday, March 25. After the two-week hiatus, there will finally be a new episode with Season 4 Episode 12. Read on to learn more.
