Why George’s Young Sheldon Death Needs To Happen Sooner Rather Than Later

Young Sheldon Cannot Afford To Further Delay George's Death.

Young Sheldon could have gotten away with doing George's death off-screen. However, the upcoming George and Mandy spinoff series forces the prequel to tackle the tragedy, considering that the sequel series will pick up after its parent series ends. While The Big Bang Theory established that Sheldon's dad died long before the events of the nerd-centric sitcom, the specifics of it have been kept unclear. No word on how exactly he passes away, but it is supposed to happen around the time that Sheldon finishes college, which will go down before Young Sheldon wraps up.

Proof of how busy the prequel has been heading to its finale is Young Sheldon's inability to focus on Sheldon's story. It has been dividing its screentime through multiple other plots, allowing it to delay George's death. With only five episodes left before it ends, CBS can no longer afford to push back the tragedy. Otherwise, it leaves the series not enough time to recover from it and set up a lighthearted send-off to the Coopers. Despite the shift in its storytelling in the last several years, Young Sheldon is still technically a comedy, and it should end like that.

George's vasectomy may seem like a simple procedure nowadays. However, it's important to note that Young Sheldon takes place in the early '90s, which means the operation may still be prone to complications. Admittedly, it's an unexpected way to set up his death, and more than Mary's reaction to him going behind her back, it's safe to expect that the story's focus will be more on how this potentially leads to the end of his life.

Young Sheldon season 7 airs every Thursday, 8pm ET on CBS.
