I don’t know why but I was so relieved to see the guy that plays George on screen during the interview. It’s like I actually thought he died and I needed to remind myself it was just a fictional character that died, it’s the person that’s still alive

Lance may be sad that his character was killed off and no longer has any upcoming scenes...but I imagine he is thrilled to see the love and affection pouring out for his character and is glad to be ... missed.

I wish the big bang show had not made George out to be a bad person . He was one of my favorites.

George really was the best character in the entire show, I wish it didn't have to be like this 😢❤ watching the finale without him won't be easy

Holy Shite, when he died it was a gut punch. My whole family cried like babies. We're all going to miss this show sooo much! Thank all of you for the best memories. My children and I still watch sitcoms together before bedtime. This show will go down as one of the very best.

George Cooper Sr. Is the Jonathan Kent of the Cooper family now. He kept everyone in line.

George and Mary fought and argued light heartedly, unlike how reality arguments are. It's funny to see

In many ways this show was far superior then Big Bang Theory.

The best George scene was when Veronica was staying there and her Mother's boyfriend, Clint (?), came by to drag her back. Clint was manhandling Georgie and George caught the action. George told Clint to put his son down. Clint claimed he and Georgie were just playing. The next thing you heard was a punch and a thud. George is telling Mary to call the police that there is a bum sleeping on the doorstep.😂

Something popped up on my timeline on Facebook today. Five years ago today The Big Bang Theory aired its series finale today and Young Sheldon will air its series finale tonight. I'm going to miss Young Sheldon, the show really knew how to tug at your heartstrings and make you cry and laugh. I will miss Ian as Sheldon, in my opinion he was the perfect person to play Sheldon and I can't wait to see more of Ian in future movies or TV he is an amazing actor. The whole cast was just awesome and I will miss watching the show each week. Thanks for a wonderful experience.

George is going to go down in TV History as one of the best dads. I'll never forget the pep talk he gave to Sheldon on a video tape once on The Big Bang Theory where he said, "Just because you lose doesn't make you losers. You learn more about who you are and what you're made of from your failure as you do success, maybe more."

I loved George, he was the kindest man!❤❤❤❤

My family has a history of men being on the autism spectrum and I can see how Sheldon would get it so wrong in the absolutes in Big Bang Theory. His degradation of his father was a coping mechanism. He hadn't really dealt with the loss, even up to the death of Howard's mother. I wonder if this prequel, which we now know is him writing his memoirs much later in life than BBT, is showing that he eventually did grow into dealing with it and is portraying his father's complete nature more accurately now.

I lost my mom when I was a freshman in college in July 2022,and I got the news about my mom's death by a call from a Grandfather when I was on a bus going to an exam centre but when I got the news I was not even able to cry as the bus was super crowded and I cried silently and soberly and I was numb ,I had a similar reaction like Sheldon reaction to his dad death I was also completely numb and silent and I was not even able cry properly as I was in a crowded bus and tears silently rolled my face,and when yesterday I watched this episode it reminded me of that painful day again and I am missing my mom more than ever, I am not even able to sleep at night as I miss my mom desperately

"I don't know that she's coping well" She definitely isn't according to TBBT: Georgie: "Mom was a mess, Missy was a dumb teenager. I had to look after both of them"

Oh how i will miss young sheldon 😢

George was my favorite.. I've lost my husband and this hit hard. He should have made it to the end and had his dream job

by the way folks, tonight marks the 5 year anniversary of the Big Bang Theory series finale! wow, exactly five years ago tonight, on May 16, 2019, and on a Thursday! Thursday May 16, 2024, remember this day people, now it's the Young Sheldon series finale.

It truly is amazing how a well written show can convince us to mourn make believe characters on a tv show.

Being a Homeless Veteran for 10yrs if any of you think it's easy it's not. Nobody cares about our situation Now i make 22k weekly. have a home, a wife, a lovely daughter... A child of God. HALLELUJAH

Georgies reaction is going to be interesting, his dad had taught him one final lesson a little earlier in the episode and he was off screen when his dad died. In the ad he seemed calm though like he is going to be like his father an care for the family now.

Completely adored George Sr.'s cheerful and lighthearted personality. For others like myself who were unaware of The Big Bang Theory, it was truly a devastating turn of events!

At least we all know that George Loved The Greatest American Rock Band Ever... LYNYRD SKYNYRD! FLY ON FREEBIRD!!

Just finished this show right now, It’s really sad that it’s over now, but it was such a good show and I’m glad I watched it.

Just to let you know I cried like a baby! Had the same experience twice in 7 years! My husband then my son!💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏😘🙀

The sad part is I think George Snr was my favourite character out of all them!! He was truly a nice guy trying to be a good sport on being on everyone's side!! Being on Meemaw's side is questionable but I hope everyone gets what I'm trying to say here!!

Heartbroken over George.

As a husband and a father this hit hard. If you followed big bang theory you knew it was coming but seeing how things are going great and how happy he is then bam he just dies.

As a 37year of father of 2 and husband of 14 years this episode hit me real hard

Gosh. Tears are like waterfall..

It be worse if they showed him dying in the hospital more hurtful

Can’t wait to see Lance in his own show! This man is hilarious.

I cannot wait for the finale

Totally loved the light and jolly character of George Sr. It was really a tragic twist for those who didn't know The Big Bang Theory, like me ! 😞

Good tv show i loved watching it nd im rlly sad to see it go a lot of emotions in the last season

Watching it right now, can’t stop crying

My favorite part was when they were at a thanksgiving dinner and they were shocked by Sheldon’s football knowledge, it showed respect for his father but was told from a child’s perspective that he couldn’t do his homework until after the game. Grin. But he really learned football.

My favorite was George. This affected me deeply because I lost my husband. He ought to have persevered and landed his ideal job.

This show was amazing

George was only 42? yeah right... I am older than that and I was shocked to find out the actor was only six years older than me, I figured he was in his mid to late 50s

Recently lost a young girl i have considered a neice since she was about 5 years old. We dont know what happened but she was only 21 and they found her on a sidewalk. She went without oxygen for almost 30 minutes. Pulmonary embolism is what they think but...we are all baffled. She was so young. I havnt been able to process it. My brain cant explain it.

Petition to make a new season

I 'm with you. It didn't have to be this way.♥️

Sheldon's grandma was the best on the show

Besides the great show and fabulous acting, they were smart and too confident during this interview .

I love this show I’m sad it’s ending

Unrealistically especially with a do-gooder like Mary George had a history of heart complications and heart attacks but never altered his diet or stopped drinking beer🤔

They looks gorgeous ❤

RIP George Cooper Sr.

I think the thumbnail is wrong - it was said that George was born somewhere between 1942 and 1944, thus died in his early 50s in 1994. Also, we know that he is around 6 or 7 years older than Mary. With Georgie being born probably in 1976, Mary would have given birth to him aged 17-18. That is confirmed to be false, because she didn't become a mother so young, but rather in her mid 20s.

I miss you George copper

im curious if George is gonna be in the intro of ep 13 and ep 14 but ill see at 8 pm!

Sad ❤❤

My best friend recently lost his mother. The problem is her death was completely sudden. No one knew she had bladder cancer, including herself. Now he’s having a very hard time, and I feel terrible I don’t know what to tell him to make it better.

The 2-Part Young Sheldon Finale won't feel the same without George Cooper Sr

I can't believe how much she sounds exactly like her mom here

RIP

He was only 52.

My childhood is so ridden

Bro I was scrolling on yt shorts and someone spoiled it

George really was a good dad. And i am glad to see he didnt actually cheat. Which is the reason sheldon knocks 3 times.

They need to make a Young George and Mary 😊😊😊

I didn’t see this episode on Netflix,how do I get to see it?

*insert Final Destination music*

Mary calling Pastor Rob! Mary calling Pastor Rob!!

😢😢

I thought the anticipation leading up to Jack Pearson's death was rough. This was kind of up there too.

Not even a fan/viewer of this show but I have watched it through youtube shorts lol

Its okay guys. Sheldon's dad will return as leonards bully in TBBT

These two are so much better looking than their characters.

Before the video commercial that said safe life repairs safe life replace😢

So sad

Wishing george will make a cameo even as a ghost or in a dream😅

“ A man will die but not his ideas “

Well, according to TBBT George Jr, Mary supposedly became a mess and George Jr will step up for his family and handle things without letting Sheldon worry.

He had a heart attack nooo

Can anyone tell what's is story of Mary after George death what she is talking about what happens to her emotionally in big bang

Just saw the last episodes and was upset as to why they didn't fallow Missy as to were she's going

Why does lance barber look like George Lucas in this interview

They really killed off George😔

Mary treated him very bad

I believe that the whole show (Young Sheldon) was based on Sheldon's Memoirs. He made his Dad out to be a great guy and the role play of his parents was in his memoirs as well. His true realities of what really happened is based on the Big Bang Theory. His writing was to show that he came from a good family and not the reality that was presented to us on The Big Bang Theory. This is why his professors nor Paige was ever mentioned. He wrote a fantasy novel about a Good, Wholesome Family. He made his Meemaw out to be a with it (in Sheldon's mind) granny who had a little danger in her. The whole show (Young Sheldon) is based on a fantasy that Sheldon wrote in his Autobiography.

At least he dies and then the show ends. It's not like they kill him off and there's another 7 seasons

George was like Peter Griffin ❤️

He was 42 when he died

Lance played Jimmy, a bully in the Big Bang Theory and so he met Old Sheldon. Jimmy lives. And so Lance can still bump into a grown up Sheldon. 😉

It had to happen, we all that, but I'm just happy they waited till 12th ep, season 7.

I don't watch big bang - so how does Mary 'end up' ??

He time travels to become Leonard's high school bully

Dang you Chuck L!!!! We didn’t want this.

I really enjoyed that sitcom very much, much more than The Big Bang Theory. It’s too bad that they had to write off George with a heart attack. I really liked him and I think that he was the funniest one of all.

Zoe sounds like her mom

george was only 42😭💔

So that means George didn't die because one time I saw that I saw a video where George died and then now he's he's alive so I don't know if George Cooper actually died or if that's just like a type of movie

Oh god what’s stopping sturgis now

The 1990s had Uncle Phil The 2010s had George Cooper

🙌🙌🙌🙌💚💚💚💚💚

That vasec surgery affected his heart.

If George Sr really was dead in the series he wouldn't be helping himself to French toast and calling Leonard Nancy later on

Why do they kill George off the show if it gets cancelled 😫😢
