I pitched Chuck Lorre a plan for how Stuart Fails to Save the Universe can retcon The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon's biggest mistake — and he's seriously considering it
Frankly, it's a grudge I've held onto tightly for the last two years (at best).So when I had the chance to interview the creative trio for their new HBO Max comedy, I wasted no time pitching my story idea for future seasons. I knew it was solid, but I wasn't expecting them to genuinely consider it. In fact, the decision was so poorly judged that Lorre publicly apologized for it after George's funeral in Young Sheldon season 7.Let me explain.
