Jim Parsons and Iain Armitage Talk 'Young Sheldon'

Actor Iain Armitage talked to Ellen all about playing the kid version of Jim Parsons in "Young Sheldon," and what it was like meeting Oprah for the first time.

I love how jim parsons just kind of sat back and allowed iain Armitage to have the spot light he is so professional and wonderful with children

[pipercassidy]

He literally has a better vocabulary and better manners than most teenagers and adults i know

[Randoms]

The idea of an older actor training a younger actor to act like the character the older one plays is simply amazing.

Look at Jim he doesn't even care about the attention, by laying back and smiling he lets the little Sheldon talk.

My heart can barely handle one Sheldon. Two is too much I can't!!!

I never would've thought that a show about a young Sheldon would actually work out, but this kid actually pulled it off.
