Why Young Sheldon Didn’t Have A Choice But To Kill George
Ahead of Young Sheldon season 7’s premiere, it was announced that the Coopers’ story in Texas will continue via a new spinoff, titled Georgie and Mandy‘s First Marriage. It will focus on the pair navigating life as new parents while also dealing with their romance after the events of its parent series. Considering the timeline, this forced Young Sheldon to address George’s demise because there’s a show that takes place after it. CBS could have gotten away with ending the prequel just before tragedy struck, leaving the family intact and the show on a high note.
Jim Parsons’ Sheldon Young Sheldon finale return offers a disappointing update about what happened to the Pasadena gang after The Big Bang Theory.

In the immediate fallout of the tragedy, the prequel will spend some time with the Coopers as they come to terms with this massive loss. The Young Sheldon finale will tackle George’s funeral. Aside from the core Cooper family, other notable characters from The Big Bang Theory prequel will also be in attendance, as confirmed by set images. Brenda Sparks, Mandy’s parents: Audrey and Jim McCallister, Dr. Sturgis, and Coach Wilkins are among those who are expected to appear in George’s funeral episode. Beyond Young Sheldon, details about how the Coopers move forward after his death are scant.
According to Sheldon’s brother, he took over the family on the heels of catastrophic loss, while also building his business and taking care of Mandy and Cece.
The majority of what is known about this comes from Georgie, when he debuted in The Big Bang Theory just before Sheldon and Amy got married. Because George’s death was unexpected in Young Sheldon, it was a massive shock to the family. According to Sheldon’s brother, he took over the family on the heels of catastrophic loss, while also building his business and taking care of Mandy and Cece. He needed to step up because Mary was too grief-stricken to function while Missy returned to her “dumb teenager” phase. Meanwhile, Sheldon moved forward with his post-grad studies at Caltech.
