Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage

The show has potential. The first episode was cute but not terribly funny. What was extremely annoying was the constant laugh track. Constantly hearing people laugh like crazy at things that might (might) be cute but are certainly not funny distracts from the show. Other than that the show certainly has potential. The cast is strong and fun to watch. After The Big Band and Young Sheldon it's interesting to see what the family is up to. Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage continues the family story leading us back to The Big Bang. I like that many of the characters from Young Sheldon are part of the new series and I hope they continue to make appearances.

It is annoying, distracting, and completely pointless. Either bring in a studio audience like The Big Bang Theory, or do without completely it like Young Sheldon. Seriously, it is even worse than the one used on How I Met Your Mother (which is saying something).

Other than that, this show has promise. The pilot episode is a bit clunky, but that is true for most shows. Given enough time, this could be a pretty good spinoff (of a spinoff).

Seriously get rid of that horrendous laugh track. Even if it cured cancer, ended racism, stopped hunger, and brought about world peace... it still wouldn't be worth it.

My first thought was they are killing things with the overuse of the laugh track. Not all the "jokes" are that funny. So far, the show needs to be less of a typical hit-you-over-the-head, low quality sitcom. The characters have a history and development that needs better incorporating in the story. The writing feels cheap to me. I always found the supporting characters much more interesting on Young Sheldon and was pleased to hear of this spinoff. Everything seems too forced so far. I'm really hoping that the writers find their footing soon with this show. It would be a shame to waste the gift they were given.

The actor who plays Georgie is a genuine find, his character really developed well during the course of Young Sheldon. Mandy is a suitable sidekick, but Georgie really is the heart and soul of the show. Sadly they dropped the Single Camera film format for Multi-camera digital and felt the WRONG need to add that incipit laugh track, ala the new Frazier. The look and feel is off and the Laugh Track is beyond annoying an unnecessary. Funny, they tried to explain it away in the narrative. Didn't work. IT IS NOT NECESSARY AND IS DISTRACTING AND ANNOYING. Even worse, the laugh tracks they use today are so blatantly phony it' pathetic. One of the reasons BBT and YS worked so well was the peripheral characters. They were all wonderful. I don't really see that here. While Mandy's Dad is pretty good, her mom is extremely annoying and one dimensional. Any stroll through past sitcom success stories and failures will show you the ones that succeeded, like King of Queens, Cheers, Seinfeld did so because, in addition to solid main characters, the peripheral side ones were equally interesting, funny and added something to the show. Think Kripke, Will Wheaton, Billy Sparks, Professor Sturgis. The new Frazier fails because other than Frazier, the rest of the cast is boring and bland. Kevin Can Wait failed because, other than Kevin James, the rest of the cast were boring and bland.

Worth watching. George and Mandie's First Marriage is a great spinoff from Young Sheldon. The characters are great, relatable, and the storyline is entertaining. However, the laugh track is super, super annoying and it absolutely ruins the show!! Get rid of it for next season, if there is a next season. PLEASE!! NO MORE LAUGH TRACK !! It takes so much away from the show. Other viewers have mentioned this and I have to agree 100%. If there is a chance that this show continues, no laugh track would be the greatest improvement. I also hope to see other Young Sheldon characters in future episodes.
