      Title: Sheldon Cooper - Wikipedia # Sheldon Cooper. (Redirected from Sheldon Cooper (character)&redirect=no "Sheldon Cooper (character)")). Fictional character in The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon. | *The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon* character |. | Jim Parsons as adult Sheldon Cooper (left) and Iain Armitage as young Sheldon Cooper |. | First appearance | * "Pilot "Pilot (The Big Bang Theory)")" * *The Big Bang Theory* * September 24, 2007 |. | Portrayed by | Jim Parsons (*The Big Bang Theory*) Iain Armitage (*Young Sheldon*) |. **Sheldon Lee Cooper**, B.S., M.S., M.A., Ph.D., Sc.D., is a fictional character and one of the main protagonists in the 2007–2019 CBS television series *The Big Bang Theory* and the titular main protagonist of its 2017–2024 spinoff series *Young Sheldon*, portrayed by actors Jim Parsons and Iain Armitage respectively (with Parsons as the latter series' narrator). The character's childhood is the focus of *Young Sheldon*, in which he grows up as a child prodigy in Medford, Texas with his family: his twin sister Missy Cooper, his father George Cooper Sr., his older brother George Marshall Cooper Jr., his mother Mary Cooper, and his grandmother, Constance Tucker (also known as Connie or Meemaw). The adult Sheldon is a senior theoretical physicist at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), and for the first ten seasons of *The Big Bang Theory* shares an apartment with his colleague and best friend, Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki); they are also friends and coworkers with Howard Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) and Rajesh Koothrappali (Kunal Nayyar). In season 10, Sheldon moves across the hall with his girlfriend Amy Farrah Fowler (Mayim Bialik), in the former apartment of Leonard's wife Penny "Penny (The Big Bang Theory)") (Kaley Cuoco). Throughout the entire run of *The Big Bang Theory*, the college he went to for undergraduate studies had not been revealed, but he always felt it was superior to his fellow *Big Bang Theory* colleagues' alma maters of Princeton (Leonard), Cambridge (Raj), MIT (Howard) and Harvard (Amy); however, it is implied in "The Tam Turbulence" (Season 12, Episode 4) that Sheldon is in fact a Caltech alumnus, and in *Young Sheldon* he is said to enroll at the fictional East Texas Tech before finally enrolling at Caltech in the final episodes of the series.

      Like Leonard, Raj, and Howard, Sheldon is characterized as being highly intelligent, but he tends to display childish qualities, such as extreme stubbornness and meanness. It is claimed by Bernadette that the reason Sheldon is sometimes mean is because the part of his brain that tells him it is wrong to be mean is "getting a wedgie from the rest of his brain". However, in season 8's "The Space Probe Disintegration", Sheldon tearfully admits to Leonard that he is aware of how his behavior comes across. The first four episodes of The Big Bang Theory portray Sheldon slightly inconsistently with respect to his later characterization: according to Prady, the character "began to evolve after episode five or so and became his own thing". [...] Sheldon was interested in science from an early age, and was a child prodigy, although due to his behavioral quirks and his lack of humility about his superior intellect, he was bullied by classmates and neighbors. Sheldon entered college at the age of eleven, and at age fourteen he graduated from college summa cum laude. Throughout the entire run of The Big Bang Theory, the college he went to for undergraduate studies had not been revealed, but he always felt it was superior to his fellow Big Bang Theory colleagues' alma maters of Princeton (Leonard), Cambridge (Raj), MIT (Howard) and Harvard (Amy); however, it is implied in "The Tam Turbulence" (Season 12, Episode 4) that Sheldon is in fact a Caltech alumnus, and in Young Sheldon he is said to enroll at the fictional East Texas Tech [...] Sheldon and his fraternal twin sister, Missy, were born on February 26, 1980, at a Kmart in Galveston, Texas, and raised in Medford, a fictional small town in East Texas that is a three-hour drive from Dallas, along with their older brother, George Jr., by their mother, Mary Cooper, an overtly devout Baptist, and their father, George Cooper Sr., a high school football coach. His first word was 'hypotenuse'; he said this at four months old. Sheldon once got his father fired when he told Mr. Hinckley, a store owner, that George was stealing from the cash register. In Young Sheldon, this is retconned: his father is a football coach who was fired from his coaching position in Galveston because he disclosed that other coaches were illegally recruiting players to their school, forcing the

      Sheldon is known for his brilliant mind but also his quirky behavior and idiosyncrasies. Sheldon has a hard time understanding sarcasm and is, with the exception of his close friends and wife Amy, uncomfortable with many social situations. Sheldon is extremely logical, but this comes at a cost of often being rude of condescending to others. Although Sheldon's friends are often the subject of his put downs and narcissistic behavior, they have generally learned to live with Sheldon's quirks. Bernadette says that Sheldon doesn't know when he's being mean as "the part of his brain that should know is getting a wedgie from the rest of his brain". [...] Sheldon has a loving yet complicated relationship with his mother, Mary. Although Sheldon greatly appreciates the love and support she gives him, he's uncomfortable with her religious beliefs. When Mary comes to town, Sheldon looks forward to her taking care of him as if he was a kid again. Despite his fondness for his mother's affection, Sheldon has at times longed for the sort of mother Leonard had in Beverly Hofstadter, a cold and distant mother with a brilliant analytical mind. Sheldon speaks fondly of his grandmother, whom he calls Meemaw and who calls him Moonpie. Growing up, Sheldon's grandfather, whom he called Pop-Pop, was the person who most encouraged Sheldon's interest in science. Pop-Pop died when Sheldon was five years old. [...] Sheldon's academic brilliance started at an early age. Sheldon started college at the age of eleven and graduate at fourteen. He was, at the time, the youngest person to receive the Stevenson Award, receiving it at fourteen and a half. Sheldon received his first doctorate at age sixteen. He spent a year as a visiting professor at the University of Heidelberg in Germany. As Sheldon and Amy tested their friends to see who was most deserving of being best man and maid of honor at their upcoming wedding, Sheldon revealed that his mother was pushing for him to make Georgie his best man. Sheldon included his brother on the league table, but gave him 0 points. Sheldon eventually settled on his best friend, Leonard, being his best man.

      human specimen, Sheldon does have his faults. Sheldon is characterized by a strict adherence to routine and hygiene, and overly intellectual personality, a tenuous understanding of irony, sarcasm, and humor, and a general lack of humility or empathy, the former of which is demonstrated in the fact that he has no problem voicing to his peers his admiration for his superior intellect. These qualities, along with his penchant for pranks, are his character's main source of humor. He is often considered to be the most iconic character of the show. Sheldon developed a more sociable personality due to the influences of his friends, especially his friend Penny Teller and his wife Amy Farrah Fowler-Cooper.

Next to his best friend Leonard Hofstadter, he's the main protagonist of "The Big Bang Theory" and the titular protagonist of "Young Sheldon." [...] Originally from East Texas, His hometown is Medford, TX when he was just a small child. Sheldon started college at the age of 11-years-old in 1991, receiving his first Ph.D. at the age of 16. As a kid, Sheldon was involved in numerous experiments as a "wunderkind," such as his plan to provide free electricity for his hometown by building a nuclear reactor - a plan the government pen-pushers stopped, claiming that it was illegal to store yellowcake uranium in a garden shed. Proudly geeky, he has no qualms about speaking Klingon, wearing vintage t-shirts sporting superhero logos, or spouting various historical and cultural anecdotes (i.e. his account of introduction of the fork into Thailand). While he may claim to be the perfect human specimen, Sheldon does have his faults. Sheldon is
