The Cooper family has a lot to deal with, and we see that more and more each season. The next one we’ve got our eyes set on now is season 7.
We don’t know an exact episode count yet, but the seventh season could possibly be a shorter one due to the delays. Like perhaps in the 10-15 episodes range. We’ll have to wait and see what CBS announces. The show’s predecessors have been 22 episodes long. The exception was season 4 that had a total of 18 episodes due to the pandemic.
Young Sheldon seasons 1-5 are all streaming on Max. Season 7 should hold the show’s regular timeslot of 8 p.m. ET on Thursday nights on CBS when it eventually comes back. New episodes will begin streaming the next day on Paramount+. Most of season 6 is streaming on Max.
Young Sheldon has a TV-PG rating, meaning parental guidance is recommended and the series may be unsuitable for younger children. While the story is pretty clean, there are some more mature themes that are discussed at times.
“A Stolen Truck and Going on the Lam” – Missy steals her dad’s truck and hits the road with her friend Paige (Mckenna Grace), on YOUNG SHELDON, Thursday, March 30 (8:00-8:31 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+*.

One character we love to see all the time is troubled teen Paige, played by actress McKenna Grace. It’s not known yet if she’s going to be in the seventh season. The last time we saw the character was in season 6 episode 13, “A Stolen Truck and Going on the Lam.” Missy runs away from home and her friend Paige tags along.
