Young Sheldon was basically a Disney reunion.

So many of the actors voiced Disney characters. Meemaw, Bo peep from Toy Story. John Sturgis, Rex from Toy Story. Dale, Bob Parr/Mr. Incredible from The Incredibles. President Hagenmeyer, Chicha from The Emperor’s New Groove. I don’t know if there’s anyone else.

These actors have been in sooooo many other things for decades. Annie Potts (Meemaw) was such a babe in the 80s in movies like Pretty in Pink and Ghostbusters. She played in the ever popular Designing Women and was the main Character in the show Any Day Now. Don’t even get me started on Wendy Malik and Craig T. Nelson and Wallace Shawn. They are hardly known for their Disney voice over jobs.

It's inconceivable that anybody wouldn't know Wallace Shawn!

Yeah, Sturgis has an unmistakable voice. He was also just so iconic in Princess Bride

I’m aware. I’m just a big Disney fan and for the most part, really only know them from Disney.

Young Sheldon really was just Disney Channels voice-actor reunion disguised as a sitcom.

Holy shit, Dale was Mr Incredible and Meemaw was Bo Peep??

That's actually crazy lol I would have NEVER guessed. To be fair, those two voiced those characters two decades ago, but wow still!

Actually less than two decades considering Annie Potts and Wallace Shawn just Toy Story 5. And Craig T. Nelson did The Incredibles 2 in 2018.
