Before Folake Olowofoyeku was a nurse on Bob Hearts Abishola, she played bass in David Bowie’s The Next Day. How gorgeous was the 29-year-old as a blonde in that 2013 music video?

To hear her tell Kelly Ripa and Consuelos that she didn’t know who Bowie was before she got the gig, then click here!

Young Sheldon is coming to an end on May 16th, and it is going out with a big bang. As in, The Big Bang Theory’s Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik will guest star as Old Sheldon and Amy Farrah Fowler.

This is the first time they have played their characters on camera since the TBBT finale in 2019.

And what they will be doing on this season finale is a mystery. And I can’t wait to see what happens in two months.

Last year, CBS announced that Chuck Lorre’s last two sitcoms, Bob Hearts Abishola and Young Sheldon, were airing their final seasons this year. So it looked like, for the first time in 21 years, CBS would be without one of Lorre’s series.

But today, CBS announced that they picked up a spinoff of Young Sheldon, which is a spinoff of The Big Bang Theory.

Sheldon’s brother, Georgie (Montana Jordan), his fiancee, Mandy (Emily Osment), and their daughter are getting their own series next season.

“It has been a privilege to spend the last seven years with Sheldon and the Cooper family and now this wonderful journey will continue with Georgie and Mandy,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “Chuck and both Steves [Steven Molaro and Steve Holland] have done a masterful job developing these characters and entertaining generations of fans with relatable, heartwarming stories brought to life by Montana and Emily. We eagerly look forward to the next chapter in this beloved universe.”

I hope they find a way to incorporate Annie Potts as MeeMaw and Jerry O’Connell as the future voice of Georgie. O’Connell played Georgie on TBBT.

This is the second spinoff that CBS ordered for next season. They also ordered NCIS: Origins, which is about Agent Gibbs’ beginning with the federal agency.

Tonight at 8p on CBS, we see Young Sheldon in a situation he has never been in before. And he doesn’t like it.

Sheldon (Iain Armitage) is in Germany, studying in a very elite program. However, Texas Smart is not the same over there. So the boy genius is anything but there. Therefore, he needs a tutor, and she is younger than him.

How will he handle that? How do you think? And you know you want to watch to find out.

Connie (Annie Potts) needs money because she does not have tornado insurance, and her house was destroyed during one. So, she decides to add a roulette wheel to her laundry casino. But Georgie (Montana Jordan) is having second thoughts now that he is a dad. What is he going to do?

Seriously, there is more that goes on. But the main reason to tune in is to see Sheldon knocked down a few notches in the smart department.

Then, at 8:30p, Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) sees one of the Ghosts. I am not going to tell you who and how, but he does. And you know you want to know and why.

We also find out something that may be related to why Flower (Sheila Carrasco) was sucked up. She is not the only girlfriend of Thor’s (Devan Chandler Long) who has moved on to a better place. When Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky) finds that out, she wants to date him. How will her boyfriend Trevor (Asher Grodman) feel about that?

I forgot how much I missed Ghosts until this episode, and I am so happy it is back. Find out why this is the show that the young people are watching and loving.

Young Sheldon, Ghosts, and So Help Me Todd are back with enjoyable episodes

We have not had new episodes of Young Sheldon, Ghosts, and So Help Me Todd, since May. And they are finally back on CBS tonight.

The night starts with Young Sheldon at 8p, and it picks up right after the tornado hits Medford. MeeMaw (Annie Potts) saw that her house was destroyed, and that means she, her future daughter-in-law Mandy (Emily Osment), and her granddaughter have nowhere to live.

Well, they do. They can stay across the street at her daughter’s house. Luckily, there is a little more room there because Mary (Zoe Perry) and Sheldon (Iain Armitage) are in Germany so that he can study at one of their colleges. When Mary finds out about the tornado, she wants to fly home, but Sheldon is insistent they stay. So they do.

Back in Medford, Missy (Raegan Revord) is in charge. Even though she is the youngest person, minus the baby, in the household, she is the most mature. She takes over and keeps the house in order. And they are going to need it while her mother is overseas.

It is not like her father (Lance Barber) or her older brother (Montana Jordan) are up for the job. And they are happy to let her do the job.

Even though their World has been turned upside down, the Coopers have their stuff together.

And they also bring so much laughter and so much heart. It makes me sad that this is the series last season. Enjoy it while you can.

Then at 8:30p, we finally find out who was sucked up on Ghosts! And it has been tortorous waiting this long.

So, who will Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) and Sam (Rose McIver) find out who has moved on? Is it Thor (Devan Chandler), Sass (Román Zaragoza), Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky), Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), Nigel (John Hartman), Alberta (Danielle Pinnock), Flower (Sheila Carrasco), Pete (Richie Moriarty), or Trevor (Asher Grodman)?

I am not going to tell you who it is. But I will tell you that despite several ghosts making guest appearances, it is one of the souls I mentioned above.

It is not who I thought it was. But their departure makes sense.

Even though we are losing someone we love, Ghosts still delivers a heartfelt episode that you just want to hug.

I didn’t realize how much I missed this sitcom until I watched the season 3 premiere. I am so happy it is back! Never leave me for that long again.

Then at 9p, So Help Me Todd is back with its best episode to date.

Now that Todd (Skylar Astin) is a licensed Private Investigator again, he has set up shop in his mother’s law firm.

Margaret (Marcia Gay Harden), who has just been promoted to partner, is not going to allow him to do that. If he wants to use their offices, he has to work only for her. But, more on that later.

As soon as Margeret walks into the office, she is assigned her first job as partner. And that task is to lay off some of the staff because they have lost several accounts and need the money.

She doesn’t want to do that, so she takes on the case of a morning anchor (Lisa Rinna) who is accused of killing her co-anchor live on the air.

Together, the mom and son are going to try to find out who really did it. And it is a good thing that Todd put out feelers because the person who might know more about the murder wants to hire him to clear his name.

What does he know? And is he the person they need to solve the case?

And if that is not enough. Margaret has to deal with the fact that her husband, who ran away to Iceland without telling her he was going, is back, just when she found a new man to be in her life.

It is a lot. But this show is a fun roller coaster ride you don’t want to get off of. It is a fast-moving, entertaining show that leaves you guessing until the final reveal. Plus, the characters play off of each other so well that you tune in to watch their chemistry like you did Laurel & Hardy.
