While there was heartbreak that Young Sheldon season 7 marked the end of the road for the series, there was solace with the news that the Cooper family’s adventures would continue in a new spinoff, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage.
From Chuck Lorre, Steven Molaro and Steve Holland, the great minds behind The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage continues the story of the Cooper family, but this time from the perspective of older brother Georgie (Montana Jordan).
Following the finale of Young Sheldon, Holland spoke with Variety about what to expect in Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage. He noted fans can look forward to seeing some familiar faces in the new series, just not right away. “It’s always been our hope that this world can continue into the new show. It’s also important to us that this new show gets its own identity and attitude and isn’t just ‘Young Sheldon season 8,'” he said. “We love these actors, and we’ve always thought this is a world where these characters can drop in and make appearances and be a part of it from time to time.”
In terms of the timeline, Holland said that the new series picks up soon after the events of the Young Sheldon finale. “The finale, I think, is a month after [Cooper patriarch] George’s (Lance Barber) funeral, so probably maybe another month after that. So it’s just a little bit separated from the death, but not much.”
