Young Sheldon Stars on How Georgie and Mandy’s Moms Bring the Couple Closer Together Ahead of Wedding
It’s official: Young Sheldon‘s Georgie and Mandy are headed for a wedding.
Thursday’s episode of the Big Bang Theory prequel culminated in CeeCee’s parents’ decision to forgo a church wedding and tie the knot down at City Hall. Their minds were made up once Mary and Audrey went behind their backs and each had CeeCee secretly baptized — first as Baptist (with an assist from Pastor Jeff) and later as Catholic — without consulting them first.
Initially, Georgie didn’t see the issue. It made their mothers happy, so what does it matter… right? But by episode’s end, he learned his lesson. “I think Georgie finally figured out happy wife, happy life,” series star Montana Jordan tells TVLine.
Part 3 of our Q&A with Jordan and Emily Osment delves further into Season 7, Episode 6 — “Baptists, Catholics and an Attempted Drowning” — including why Osment thinks Georgie and Mandy work as a couple.
“Mandy is high strung,” Osment posits. “She cares a lot about the way her child is treated, and what religion her child is going to be, and are we making the right decisions? And then on the other side of it, you have Georgie saying ‘It’s going to make these people happy. It doesn’t really matter at the end of the day,’ and that’s a really nice balance to have in a relationship.”
As previously reported, Jordan and Osment will headline an as-yet-untitled Young Sheldon spinoff for CBS, which will premiere during the 2024-25 broadcast season. Ahead of their characters’ wedding on Thursday, April 11, the fan-favorite duo sat down with TVLine for their first interview about the highly anticipated offshoot, and to reminisce about their favorite Georgie and Mandy moments.
New episodes of Young Sheldon air Thursdays at 8/7c on CBS (and stream next day on Paramount+). Its one-hour series finale is slated for May 16.
