The Big Picture Close The final season of Young Sheldon has come and gone, bringing to a close a brilliant seven-year run that saw the CBS comedy drama bring to life the origin story of Sheldon Cooper. The character was first introduced in the iconic sitcom, The Big Bang Theory, and was portrayed for many seasons by Jim Parsons. A man with an extremely intelligent mind, Parsons' Sheldon had other flaws that matched his high intelligence.
"I remember us thinking we didn't want Sheldon in the typical comic book store shirts. He's a dad now, and we wanted him to be a little more mature. We figured Amy might have encouraged him to no longer wear that, or hidden them all. It was nice that he has on a long-sleeved sweater that he pushed up the sleeves a little bit to sort of evoke the old Sheldon vibes from Big Bang . That was intentional. Mayim was happy with what Amy was wearing and thought it was right.
Now that Young Sheldon is ended, the story of the Cooper family is set to continue with a new spinoff series, Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, which arrives at CBS in the Fall. There are a number of changes coming to the spinoff, as the story of the Coopers takes us in an entirely different direction. Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage will return to The Big Bang Theory's format, with multicam and featuring a live audience.
