Young Sheldon is back with a new episode, and this time, it’s all about weddings and secrets. In “A Proper Wedding and Skeletons in the Closet,” Georgie and Mandy finally tie the knot in a courthouse ceremony. However, their big day is overshadowed by a secret family tragedy as Meemaw’s gambling den is raided on the same day.
The wedding episode, airing on Thursday April 11 on CBS, sets the stage for Georgie and Mandy’s spin-off, with Young Sheldon nearing its series finale. The couple’s decision to get married now instead of saving their nuptials for their spin-off hints at a fresh start in a different town.
Leading up to the wedding, Georgie and Mandy faced challenges due to meddling mothers and a family feud in the previous episode. Their mothers, Mary Cooper and Audrey McAllister, secretly had young CeeCee baptized, leading to a rivalry between the two women and forcing the couple to opt for a quick civil ceremony instead of a church wedding.
Sheldon’s absence from the wedding is notable, and his whereabouts during the ceremony remain a mystery. It is speculated that he might be throwing a fit after being rejected as Georgie’s best man or that he might even be officiating the wedding, making him unseen behind the desk.
As the Cooper family gathers to celebrate Georgie and Mandy’s special day, we are also dealing with the knowledge of George’s impending death. Executive producer Steve Holland has confirmed that George will die before the end of “Young Sheldon” Season 7.
Young Sheldon: A Proper Wedding and Skeletons in the Closet airs on CBS at 8.00 pm on Thursday, April 11, 2024.
