George's character left on a high note. His marriage seemed to be healing. His relationships with his children were positive. He had a happy and healthy grandchild. And he had the job offer of his dreams.
I'd like to imagine it was a quick and painless death. No thought to what was going on, he just sat down, started his work, and was surrounded by his colleagues and best friends.
The fact that George's death is causing so many people (who watch the show) to cry goes to show how great of a job Lance Barber did with the character.
I haven't watched the show. I've seen so many clips at this point I feel I may as well have.... The scene when they found out teared me up tbh. It reminded me of how much I'm afraid of losing my own mother. My father passed a long time ago, I was 3. My mother essentially took on the role of mother and father. The scene made me think of my mother and how terrified I am of losing her.
I was watching it with my mom, when I saw the scene I almost teared up. I then watched it right here. Now looking at the looks on their faces, and hearing missy say “he’s okay right?” Broke my heart. I have a fear of losing loved ones when I know they will someday die. I’m scared I’ll never say goodbye. And not see them again. This scene really made me cry.
And yet through the BBT scripts we know Mary seemed to use a great deal of animosity and "alienation of affection tactics" to talk trash about George to anyone ( especially the kids) who would listen, even after his death. I hope that the writers will go into great lengths with the kids to experience and explore and explain why she does/did that and at least have the other kids call her out on it since Sheldon seems to be follow her lead on kicking his character even in death. As a mom, a daughter, and a daddy's girl I definitely think Missy and Mandy would call the mom out on this behavior in front of anyone who would listen, especially when it's happening with a lot to say about it!
Im actually severly disappointed with the way they handled it. The scene felt so rushed. Like Mary was choking up even before the two guys gave her the news.
37 year old man cried like he was part of this family. Miss you George Cooper senior you were a great father who put down his dreams to see his family grow.
When Mary told George “don’t be late” and when the kids didn’t say goodbye to him, I immediately knew that this was when he’d die. Hard to believe that that’s how it ended. That explains why Sheldon became the character we knew him to be in TBBT. It’s so hard to handle. 😢
Also the teasing George in the backyard by George (Jr.) while George Sr. still tries to give a positive feedback was Kind of leading to "something is up". Maybe that and George not being in the scene (changing ceecee) will part in ep 13 (not being there "why y'all crying someone dead?")
@@Randomos12 I think that it is Sheldon reliving that moment where he is thinking of what he wished he could've said to his father before he saw him leaving for work for the very last time.
That final scene with Sheldon sitting and staring blankly actually tells me something about his character in The Big Bang Theory. He likely didn’t process George’s death properly, and proceeded to isolate himself to the point where he becomes the neurotic and annoying character that people remember from season 1 of the original show.
2:54 "See you all later." George's last words. Neither of his kids got to see nor even say goodbye to their father as he walked out of their lives forever. 😢
This is literally one of my biggest fears. That I won't get to say goodbye to one of my loved ones. Every time we part ways I tell them I love them because I don't want to miss saying it to them and have to live with feeling like I should have told them.
Its realistic as fuck which is why the death hits harder, its just a normal day and hes off to work you assume hes gonna be back as usual and then one knock at the door and its over.
@@LuciadesmetThe way Ian played it was perfect. Shock,grief,every emotion you feel when you lose a parent. Not everyone breaks down like Missy. I didn't when either of my parents died.
My dad died of a heart attack when I was 6 and I was in the room when it came on. I remember my mum’s desperate but futile attempts to help him, and her cries of “Ted! Ted!”. Later, I remember the conversation mum had with me and the tears in her eyes as she told me that he “wasn’t coming back”. I know the circumstances in this scene are very different, but it brought all these memories back. I think it was the look of disbelief on Sheldon’s face that did it. They’ll be a part of me till the day I die. I’m 62 now.
I’m so sorry. That is a huge moment to carry for a little boy for your whole life. I also had to tell my grandchildren that their mommy (my daughter) passed away. You never get over those things. Sending you much love and light ❤
@@YeahThatGuy698 Thank you. I’m sorry about your daughter. I can only imagine what it’s like for a parent to lose their child. A parent never thinks their child will die before they do.
@@RockyTheRoosterand that makes it realistic. Most people's loved ones die this way. Death is imminent and life is fragile. Often times we don't get to say goodbye, we don't even remember the last conversation or the last thing they ate. It's sadder cuz it's real
All I can think about is the scene from big bang when Howard's mother dies when Sheldon said when i lost my own father i didn't have any friends to help me through it you do. Hits harder
I just gald George had his last moment with each of his family members before went to work, can't imagine how Missy will regret that she didn't accepted his ride, similar with Howard's regret when he didn't give his mother a ride to the airport. Sheldon to Howard in TBBT: "When I lost my own father, I didn't have any friends to help me through it. You do."
Not going may have stopped her from actually being there when the heart attack happened it may have been a blessing that protected her from seeing her father dying in front of her
@@iamaidansmith7542 Not true the family pictures were after school at 4 (Missy went to school on the bus) and considering Tom and Wayne just got there means it probably happened during football practice. Edit: Oh and to expand on that even if he did have a heart attack while driving to work there's no way the news would have reached his family so late. He would have veered off to the side while driving maybe even hit another car or light pole or something. People would have checked on him and called an ambulance and his family would have been notified.
And if George had a heart attack on the road, the police would have been the ones to deliver the news. What likely happened was Wayne was the one to see George have the heart attack. There were definitely people around to call 911. There's nothing Missy could have done differently.
Iain is such a good actor for how young he is. You can see a pure void in his eyes. The sheldon we see in the future and how he blankly stares fits him perfectly.
In the earlier seasons, I didn't think he portrayed Sheldon. He didn't have his mannerisms. However, as he got older, he improved and expressed a lot of Sheldon's mannerisms we know from BBT
I’m a 54 year old man & my dad died 30years ago pretty much to the day & watching that episode brought it all back. Sorry to my wife & kids who watched me cry through the whole thing.,it al came flooding back to me like I was reliving it again. I’ll meet him 1 day again ❤😘
I also didn't expect it, at the end of this episode I thought there would be 2 more episodes until the end of the series and that it would come at the very end, at that moment it hit me so hard that my world completely stopped for a moment
It's so sad how George Sr. never got to have his dream job and coach a college football team. The writers really thought it out to offer him his dream job in one episode and kill him in the next one. Makes it more emotional, good job.
I think George is a prime example of what many men go through they toss aside their dreams and aspirations in order to provide for their family and a lot of the time the family doesn't even treat them right. George was a good man and I believe being a family man was what was his true life calling.
@thegreatid3595 yes I see it that way too, he got married young and his whole life was dedicated to Mary and his kids. He made a lot of sacrifices for his dreams in order for what his family wants/what's best for them.
@@thegreatid3595 Reminds me a lot of my dad. He died right as he was finally starting to achieve some of his dreams and make something of himself. And it was super sudden. One night, talking excitedly about his new business - the next morning he was gone. This show hits hard.
The one time Mary let’s George coach a university sports team, and he dies in that same exact episode. Let’s not forget he was offered to coach a team at a university in Oklahoma, but she refused to let him do so.
When big bang finished and this was starting I expect that by the end of the show we would all hate George as they didn’t talk about him too favourably in the Big Bang but honestly loved George and feel he should be better remembered. He never cheated like Sheldon thought. He wasn’t always drunk like Sheldon and Mary would state. He was actually a pretty great dad and husband.
So did they retcon a lot of what was said about George? They way he was portrayed and they way he was talked about in the big bang theory they almost seem like 2 different characters.
@@ericlucero4152 yeah they did plus they changed things too. Sheldon told penny that the reason he knocks 3 times before he enters a room is because he walked in on his dad cheating on his mom. But that wasn’t what happened. His mom was wearing a costume and wig. It was her he saw. Also he said once that his mom had to leave him alone in Germany when the house fell off the cinder blocks during a tornado. The house never got damaged during the tornado and Mary never went back without him so that was changed too.
@@ericlucero4152 meh, I think we overthink the bits of comedy, since he was a simple man who liked to drink often, and overlook the times the characters showed how much they missed him, like at Sheldon’s wedding when he wished his father was there. Sheldon also described his and Georgie’s relationship as straight up abusive but they were able to reconnect and in Young Sheldon we see that wasn’t what was really going on. Sheldon’s perspective and what is actually happening are often very different.
I think that would be my reaction if I suddenly heard my dad passed when I am 14 ish. It will take days to sink in. I would be in denial because it does not make sense.
This is more of an impactful way to have his death rather than him dying on a hospital bed. I would have liked to see the reaction of Georgie and Mandy, maybe even dale. I don’t think we will get their reactions just the emotion of them at the funeral
You know what makes this moment truly beautiful and horrible at the same time is that we've known it was coming for seven seasons now and it still hits like a bullet train. One minute the person you love is in your life and the next they are gone without warning. And this show captured that moment perfectly.
George Cooper was one of the greatest TV fathers. Missy and him at Red Lobster to laying in a ditch during the tornado George had so many layers. I cried more for the Cooper family than any other TV family who lost a character. Lance Barber was amazing and I agree this is why this scene is affecting so many people.
The way Sheldon just remains stunned and sits down is pretty normal in hearing such devastating news like that. And then you hear the cries in the distance just makes it even more real. You're completely detached and shocked to the core that nothing around you feels real.
@@michaelhughes8733are you stupid? If George hadn’t had the heart attack and came home, he would’ve had his keys with him and wouldn’t have needed to knock, like I literally said above
I haven't seen too much media, but from what I have seen, it was the best portrayal of death I've ever seen. It was a normal ass day, everybody doing their normal ass things, talking about the future, taking each other for granted, not in an ungrateful way but in an autopilot way, & BAM, somebody else tells you your loved one died. Right in the middle of your day, the middle of your plans which you had with that loved one.
Fr they did this death so masterfully. You always blame yourself when your loved one dies. When she's done with that, she'll still blame herself for not making the booking earlier to have a nice family photo with him in it.
@@CommanderWaddles even if she had that last photo she would always miss the ones after it that he should have been in. The events he should have been at. The time you have with loved ones is never enough
This hits hard. Not so much for the show, but for the reality that it reflects. It's that pause between "I've got some bad news... he's had a heart attack" and the final "he's gone" that hangs there like an eternity. In real life, in that short moment, you know what's coming, you know what's about to be said, but you can't bring yourself to believe it. It's a surreal moment in time that is impossible to truly describe or understand unless you've actually lived through it. These actors portrayed that moment so perfectly it caused me to relive a similar moment in my life like it was happening again for the fist time. Talk about an emotional roller coaster in the span of about 60 seconds.
Honestly, this makes me worry how I will be able to handle it if one of my parents die, especially with me being an adult now and them both being adults before my oldest sibling was born.
I didn't expect him to die like that. I expected a more sad farewell but tbh I like how the show writers did it. A unexpected death that no one saw coming.
Off camera on a sit com is most fitting. Nest week part one will be tough to watch, but they will end it somberly in part two with a happy look at their futures.
Anyone who has lost a parent can relate to this scene so much. When I found out my mom had a heart attack and didn’t make it, my reaction was exactly like Sheldon’s…….struggling to comprehend the devastating news just received. I can also feel for Tom and Wayne here……having to tell someone bad news that will turn their world upside down….it was accurately portrayed how difficult it is to even begin to find the words, and the pain of having to deliver it.
I can relate. My dad will be gone 12 yrs next month. He got lung cancer from smoking. They gave us an est time of 8-12 months, longer with chemo. So he started chemo. He died 8 days later. It was really overwhelming. Most of the fam didn't even know he had cancer yet. It just went so fast. Don't ever take time or loved ones for granted. You just don't know... ❤
This hit extremely hard for me. I grew up watching TBBT and YS with my Dad and was a bonding experience for us. We rewatched the series up until a week he passed. He went as quick as George did. It was real enough to make me relive that day.
George Sr. is my favorite character on the show. It doesn't even seem like he's acting because he plays his character so well; the typical southern dad.. who shows tough love in a good way
The fact the seen just emphasizes how Sheldon is for one of the most rare moments in his life completely silent as his face reddens makes it a great acting moment.
I've never felt so heartbroken when a fictional character passed away before I watched the last scene in this episode. I actually watched it today at school and almost shed a tear. Rest in peace, George Sr, you were an awesome dad and a great husband 🕊️
Crying so much from just this clip even though I haven’t watched season 7 as of yet. This is such a REAL way of portraying death. That’s what makes it hit so hard.
This scene made me realize that you never know what’s going to happen today, tomorrow or this week because nothing is promised in life. That’s why it’s important to spend every moment of every day with your loved ones while you still can and letting them know how much you love and appreciate them.
Damn. I’m still feeling grief. For a fictional character. Even now, a few days after the episode aired. It’s a mark of how real this felt. It’s a normal day. He leaves for work. And suddenly he’s gone. You will be missed George Sr. Well done Lance! Great portrayal!
I was not ready to see George go and this threw me off because I thought it would happen in the final episode when I saw the news get delivered I paused for 5 minutes.
My daddy passed away at work of a heart attack, my mama had supper on the table waiting for him to get home when his boss called and said to get to the hospital...the supper was still sitting there when we got back home later that night. I will never forget every aspect of that whole week. And George reminded me of my daddy ..this has hit so hard i knew it was gonna be bad but i still wasnt ready for it, or all the memories it brought flooding back..
I hardly shed tears for any fictional character in a show but this one managed to make me bawl out. RIP George Marshall Cooper Sr. You were a great father on Young Sheldon and definitely the greatest father on a TV show.
Actually, what a real way to end it. My grandfather died of a cerebral hemorage at work at 52 years old. My grandmother told me that the morning he went to work, he started to walk out the back door, turned and looked back, then went on. That was the last time she saw him until later under a sheet at the hospital. This is totally believable. That is life.
I think they wanted to remove Mandy and the baby from the scene so that it would be just the immediate family reacting to the news but yeah it’s very odd that Georgie wasn’t in the room too. Would’ve made more sense having him there hugging Mary while Memaw hugged Missy.
Saw an interview with the the show's director the other night. In it he explained that this was for the most part a happy funny family show. Their decision to let George die off camera was to basically let the show give a bit less live grief to an audience who'd experienced mostly joy and wonder thru this show. I agree. Good call. Still a terribly sad scene. George Sr was a great papa. What an actor. Kudos to you sir....
The acting was very good in this 😢It gave me all those feelings you get when you actually hear someone you cared about passed away, that gut wrenching feeling in your stomach and chills 💔
Getting into a shock like Sheldon did is one of the worst feelings ever. You instantly go into a trauma and it will only let you process those emotions years later. The nerve system stores the grieve and will effect your development for a long time while you are locked in your own dark world. It's hell to be that disconnected. These actors are amazing and I felt my heart strings being pulled ❤
@@ChristopherBingham-xx8xl You can see she is starting to get upset before they even say anything. She can see they are not there to deliver good news.
I knew this was coming from the start but it was still upsetting. I know how hard it is to lose your DAD . You always think he will be there but sadly knowing its not true 😢 . RIP Dad .
and what made it memorable was that the doctors were operating in real time they had to finish the operation and had no time to process the news. Henry was said to be going home back to his family but they shot his plane down no survivors I saw the clip.
I knew that George was going to die soon this season, but it doesn't make it any less heartbreaking. The Coopers family will be mourning the loss of a loved one, and the future that they could have shared in Houston. 💔
I don't know if anyone's pointed this out yet but the way Sheldon sits down in the chair when he realizes his dad is gone is a lot like how Howard sits down in the comic book store in TBBT when he gets the phone call and finds out his mom died, and here Sheldon is shocked and upset, though it doesn't seem to properly sink in, since he has a hard time processing his own emotions, but he understood how Howard felt more than anyone else when his mom died which makes the moment in TBBT that much more impactful when he promises Howard that he has friends to help him through it and that he's one of those friends even though he didn't get have any of his own when he lost his dad especially when considering how self-absorbed Sheldon can be. Also, while Connie and George had their differences, it's obvious she still loved him when she breaks down with Missy and Mary, but what makes it even sadder is the realization that, just like how Connie lost Charlie, Mary just lost George. To be honest, while I know TBBT was made before Young Sheldon, and there's still probably a lot of continuity errors, I'm surprised Mary was even able to hold onto her faith after losing her husband and I was just kinda hoping that, somehow, Young Sheldon would've been set in an alternate universe, since Sheldon loves the multiverse theory so much, where George didn't die.
We all seen this coming and it's still a gut punch. I was 18 when my dad died. I was lucky enough to tell him I love him and he said it back. 10 minutes later, he was gone. Love you Dad.
Heart attacks can be rather tragic. Honestly it would leave a lot of people upset and possibly devastated. I've lost a few good people. My Gramps, My principal, my puppy and my friend. It made me a very emotional wreck at that time. It did remind me that I should be more compassionate around others. Especially family friends and loved ones. The saying is, "when you're in the dark, there's always light at the end of the tunnel". With it all being said and done, try to hang in there.
I'm going to say this for anyone who hasn't had to break news like this to anyone before, always have them sit down first. I've seen grown men and women pass out and collapse from news like this. And this is just speaking from one instance. I hope you all never have to be the one who is cursed with such a chore.
Damn the way Sheldon just sits there and you can physically see his brain trying to compute the information of George’s death is soo sad. George fought for Sheldon’s freedom as much as he could and he’s mostly the reason Sheldon’s even going to Caltech. His last act was offering his daughter a ride too, who knows he might of still been alive if she had went along.
I think his death was inevitable even if Missy went with him. When the heart gives out, it gives out. He barely survived the first two times, but the third one was too much for him.
I cried so hard because my mother died of a heart attack several years ago. I know this was acting, but, this really happens to people, that's the really hard part and you never get over it because it was a family member, I will miss Young sheldon so much, they all were wonderful actors,
My dad passed in 1984 when I was 37. Two days before, we'd had a stupid and silly argument and that was the last time I spoke with him. I'm now 77 and it haunts me to this day and despite the fact I have two loving daughters and three granddaughters, who I adore. This scene brought back those regrets. Don't do what I did. There are no guarantees of a tomorrow. Thanks, "Young Sheldon," for doing a beautiful job of handling this delicate topic.
The last time I saw my grandfather alive was on Christmas and I was so excited to hang out with my cousins that I barely said anything to him other than "bye, I love you" when we left. He called us right before the ball dropped on New Years and said he could feel that 2015 was going to be a great year. He was gone within an hour.
I knew that this was going to happen, I thought I was ready from the very beginning, from the time I watched “TBBT” but watching this series I became so attached to him. I just dreamed that I had such a father. As Sheldon said:"He may not have been the World's Greatest Dad, but maybe we weren't the World's Greatest Kids" RIP George Cooper♥️
A friend of mine who was a dad to 5 kids died of a heart attack at age 45 back in 2011. I was very close him, his wife, and kids. He even made Christmas cds with his singing voice before he died and i listen to them all the time. Losing him suddenly was the worst day of my life as much as this was the worst day of Sheldon's life if you'd ask me. I was totally not expecting this series to sadly end with a sad ending.
The way MeeMaw grabs Missy… we all know how much she hated George, but in the moment… I bet she’d of given anything to see him walk through that door just one more time!
I don't feel like she "hated" George. She actually loved him, they just had that "mess with each other" attitude throughout the series, and they always helped each other out when needed.
George's character left on a high note. His marriage seemed to be healing. His relationships with his children were positive. He had a happy and healthy grandchild. And he had the job offer of his dreams.
Yep, while I'm sad for his family, George had a pretty good death. My dad suffered for a month before he died.
I'd like to imagine it was a quick and painless death. No thought to what was going on, he just sat down, started his work, and was surrounded by his colleagues and best friends.
Doesn't Sheldon think he boffed "the neighbour woman" when in fact it was Mary dressed up? Started the three knocks thing.
Then why did he have to die?
While that George's passing sucks, it was great that the writers gave him a huge win in his life before he died.
The fact that George's death is causing so many people (who watch the show) to cry goes to show how great of a job Lance Barber did with the character.
Well said

_”When I lost my father, I didn’t have any friends to help me get through it, but you do.”_
*- Sheldon Cooper*
and they almost told him to be quiet because they thought he was going to be insensitive
Poor Tam.
And yet through the BBT scripts we know Mary seemed to use a great deal of animosity and "alienation of affection tactics" to talk trash about George to anyone ( especially the kids) who would listen, even after his death. I hope that the writers will go into great lengths with the kids to experience and explore and explain why she does/did that and at least have the other kids call her out on it since Sheldon seems to be follow her lead on kicking his character even in death. As a mom, a daughter, and a daddy's girl I definitely think Missy and Mandy would call the mom out on this behavior in front of anyone who would listen, especially when it's happening with a lot to say about it!
That and his final speech still gives me chills
"I really thought he was going to say let it go."
Penny
It is Missy’s “He’s okay, right?” that cuts you to the bone.
That part got real for me considering that's exactly what I ask my sister when I found out about my dad's heart attack
Im actually severly disappointed with the way they handled it. The scene felt so rushed. Like Mary was choking up even before the two guys gave her the news.
She was worried as her husband was late and suddenly his friends turn up not looking happy@@SirAuronthehonorable
That was my gut reaction when I was told my mother only had a few hours left... 😢 I couldn't believe it...
And Mary's "Where's George?"😭😭😭😭
37 year old man cried like he was part of this family. Miss you George Cooper senior you were a great father who put down his dreams to see his family grow.
Same here
42 here, same.
Mary and Sheldon never would let him consider what he wanted and be good for family.
we had 17 years, we knew he died in big bang but i still wasnt ready for this, really sad

In the finale trailer, theres quick snippet/flashback where sheldon says bye to his dad before he leaves the house in 7x12
Also the teasing George in the backyard by George (Jr.) while George Sr. still tries to give a positive feedback was Kind of leading to "something is up".
Maybe that and George not being in the scene (changing ceecee) will part in ep 13 (not being there "why y'all crying someone dead?")

At least George didn’t have to go for the family picture, but now, he can’t go to anything as his corpse is inside a coffin deep in the earth.
That final scene with Sheldon sitting and staring blankly actually tells me something about his character in The Big Bang Theory. He likely didn’t process George’s death properly, and proceeded to isolate himself to the point where he becomes the neurotic and annoying character that people remember from season 1 of the original show.
And where he said no one was there for him it could’ve been himself shutting away at the world
Yep that’s the day Sheldon became TBBT Sheldon.
that’s literally just who he is
He was always annoying though..
Not always @@Boom_Bianca

Do u kiss and hug everytime ur dad leaves....why don't u stop fking projecting ur shortcomings to actors
I'm guessing they didn't know it was going to happen
The energy in the kitchen symbolized this happening you can just feel it..
This is literally one of my biggest fears. That I won't get to say goodbye to one of my loved ones. Every time we part ways I tell them I love them because I don't want to miss saying it to them and have to live with feeling like I should have told them.
Its realistic as fuck which is why the death hits harder, its just a normal day and hes off to work you assume hes gonna be back as usual and then one knock at the door and its over.
This is the moment Young Sheldon Became Sheldon
True
That look on his face hit me
I hope in the finale there's a cameo of the whole bbt cast and not just shamy😭😭
@@LuciadesmetThe way Ian played it was perfect. Shock,grief,every emotion you feel when you lose a parent. Not everyone breaks down like Missy. I didn't when either of my parents died.
Nope! He's still And always the young Sheldon. We only see a Sheldon when he marry Amy and get the novel price 💯👍
My dad died of a heart attack when I was 6 and I was in the room when it came on. I remember my mum’s desperate but futile attempts to help him, and her cries of “Ted! Ted!”.

I think it's better than making it a post-script to the series. I think it does the character justice.
I’m kind of glad we didn’t have to witness how exactly it happened, cause that would be too sad and/or scary to watch.
I was hoping they never talked about it😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
i know bro this was the one episode that i wish never had to happen 😔😔
@@rockslimethe dad faked his death and came back as Leonard's bully cuz he knows how they treat Sheldon.
The way they built up to this moment and had the principal and assistant coach deliver the news was a masterclass in writing.
They were also his good friends
I also think it's so anti-climactic
@@RockyTheRoosterand that makes it realistic. Most people's loved ones die this way. Death is imminent and life is fragile. Often times we don't get to say goodbye, we don't even remember the last conversation or the last thing they ate. It's sadder cuz it's real
@@BrokenTreeBranch458 Yeah you got a good point.
I like how when meemaw when to embrace missy she almost lost her balance don't know if they planned that it makes the reaction look genuine.
I think she did it for mopre a realistic reaction if I have lost my son in law I would have had a bit of a stumble
She looked a bit too happy
@@vadersouls2604yea meemaw couldvw looked sadder 😂
@vadersouls2604 smiling while crying is a common involuntary reaction for some ppl. Doesnt mean Meemaw isnt sad
@@spiderghost765i agree, i also think she just kinda looked horrified
My heart broke when Mary said "4 o'clock". George walked through the door, I felt like it was the last time we would see him.
The fact that Sheldon had to sit down after hearing that...
The news rendered Sheldon speechless. It seems like he was still processing it so he isn't able to react yet.
@@ekuz986 That's called shock. No need for long explanations.
@@ekuz986I mean that’s probably how most people feel when someone dies shocked
All I can think about is the scene from big bang when Howard's mother dies when Sheldon said when i lost my own father i didn't have any friends to help me through it you do. Hits harder
@@gabrieldreams2 Only Sheldon was able to comfort Howard. Then Penny ruined it by saying let it go.
I'm a 60 year old truck driver, who cried like a baby when George passed!❤😢
Lance... you did a GREAT JOB as George...😢
Indeed..and as Leonard's bully
I knew it was coming and i still cried
Lol@@aneebaba06

Missy is gonna regret the decision for not accepting the ride to school offer from her father. 😢
Sheldon was so worried about the bees he didn't even bother looking up. All pretty typical, but you never know when its your last time.
Missy is going on my touching list
i had a simlar experience with my grandfather
@@Shhhhh-z4nexcuse me??
Yoy do know it's not real right. Please let your pea sized brain can understand that Missy doesn't exist.
I just gald George had his last moment with each of his family members before went to work, can't imagine how Missy will regret that she didn't accepted his ride, similar with Howard's regret when he didn't give his mother a ride to the airport. Sheldon to Howard in TBBT: "When I lost my own father, I didn't have any friends to help me through it. You do."
Not going may have stopped her from actually being there when the heart attack happened it may have been a blessing that protected her from seeing her father dying in front of her
@@iamaidansmith7542 It also might have meant that nobody was there to dial 911 at the critical time.
@@iamaidansmith7542 Not true the family pictures were after school at 4 (Missy went to school on the bus) and considering Tom and Wayne just got there means it probably happened during football practice.
Edit: Oh and to expand on that even if he did have a heart attack while driving to work there's no way the news would have reached his family so late. He would have veered off to the side while driving maybe even hit another car or light pole or something. People would have checked on him and called an ambulance and his family would have been notified.
And if George had a heart attack on the road, the police would have been the ones to deliver the news.
What likely happened was Wayne was the one to see George have the heart attack. There were definitely people around to call 911. There's nothing Missy could have done differently.
Sadly, George did not actually die in that moment he would have died in their yard and he probably died in the car or office at work
Iain is such a good actor for how young he is. You can see a pure void in his eyes. The sheldon we see in the future and how he blankly stares fits him perfectly.
In the earlier seasons, I didn't think he portrayed Sheldon. He didn't have his mannerisms. However, as he got older, he improved and expressed a lot of Sheldon's mannerisms we know from BBT
@@dorenedarabaris2111That also helped because it looked like Sheldon grew into the character he is in TBBT.
@@dorenedarabaris2111He probably just was too young to get all that on the character. He really grew up great on it.
@phantomzero99 that's a good point. And yes, he did grow up great.
i hope he wont be stuck on that character
3:50 What a touching scene? excellent acting performance from Missy and the others...we feel their pain
“See y’all later.” Was his last words. Fitting.
Meaning see yawl ln heaven :(
Much much later. RIP.
And sad😢
I’m a 54 year old man & my dad died 30years ago pretty much to the day & watching that episode brought it all back.
Sorry to my wife & kids who watched me cry through the whole thing.,it al came flooding back to me like I was reliving it again. I’ll meet him 1 day again ❤😘
🙏
I knew George was eventually going to die, but I still wasn’t prepared for this last scene
I also didn't expect it, at the end of this episode I thought there would be 2 more episodes until the end of the series and that it would come at the very end, at that moment it hit me so hard that my world completely stopped for a moment
I knew that the death would be in the episode but the death was almost the exact same as my grandpa which is why it hurt so much
@@Mr.Chickenwithastash im so sorry May your gradpa rest in piece..
It's so sad how George Sr. never got to have his dream job and coach a college football team. The writers really thought it out to offer him his dream job in one episode and kill him in the next one. Makes it more emotional, good job.
I think George is a prime example of what many men go through they toss aside their dreams and aspirations in order to provide for their family and a lot of the time the family doesn't even treat them right.
George was a good man and I believe being a family man was what was his true life calling.
@thegreatid3595 yes I see it that way too, he got married young and his whole life was dedicated to Mary and his kids. He made a lot of sacrifices for his dreams in order for what his family wants/what's best for them.
@@thegreatid3595 Reminds me a lot of my dad. He died right as he was finally starting to achieve some of his dreams and make something of himself. And it was super sudden. One night, talking excitedly about his new business - the next morning he was gone. This show hits hard.
He passed away looking forward to something. That is ending on a high note
The one time Mary let’s George coach a university sports team, and he dies in that same exact episode. Let’s not forget he was offered to coach a team at a university in Oklahoma, but she refused to let him do so.
Sheldon stumbling back into the seat... all their reactions were so true
I didn't see him stumble
He just sat down instead of going to the others.
@@GeorgettaHolder-jg2eq it did seem like stumbling out of shock. His face looked sad too.
@@GeorgettaHolder-jg2eqhe kinda did, Just was really subtle. And he was more then likely starting to disassociate…
For someone who hates change this was the one change he didn't want to accept
When big bang finished and this was starting I expect that by the end of the show we would all hate George as they didn’t talk about him too favourably in the Big Bang but honestly loved George and feel he should be better remembered. He never cheated like Sheldon thought. He wasn’t always drunk like Sheldon and Mary would state. He was actually a pretty great dad and husband.
They did also talk about how they missed him a lot. It’s a comedy so they focused on humorous moments in BBT.
@@Zombotron5678 yeah but then way they talked about him always being drunk and shooting stuff never saw him even hold a gun this entire show.
So did they retcon a lot of what was said about George? They way he was portrayed and they way he was talked about in the big bang theory they almost seem like 2 different characters.
@@ericlucero4152 yeah they did plus they changed things too. Sheldon told penny that the reason he knocks 3 times before he enters a room is because he walked in on his dad cheating on his mom. But that wasn’t what happened. His mom was wearing a costume and wig. It was her he saw. Also he said once that his mom had to leave him alone in Germany when the house fell off the cinder blocks during a tornado. The house never got damaged during the tornado and Mary never went back without him so that was changed too.
@@ericlucero4152 meh, I think we overthink the bits of comedy, since he was a simple man who liked to drink often, and overlook the times the characters showed how much they missed him, like at Sheldon’s wedding when he wished his father was there. Sheldon also described his and Georgie’s relationship as straight up abusive but they were able to reconnect and in Young Sheldon we see that wasn’t what was really going on. Sheldon’s perspective and what is actually happening are often very different.
Iain nailed that acting of disbelief ❤ Actually everyone on this scene has they're a game on
Sheldon has angry expression like his mom😭.
@@tiararoxeanne1318 Not really angry, more shocked.
I think that would be my reaction if I suddenly heard my dad passed when I am 14 ish. It will take days to sink in. I would be in denial because it does not make sense.
Garbage actors. This is the best any of them could even do. It's pathetic, honestly.
@@tiararoxeanne1318Neither one of them showed anger. Shock & disbelief. Maybe even a tinge of fear. Anger will come later in the process.
This is more of an impactful way to have his death rather than him dying on a hospital bed. I would have liked to see the reaction of Georgie and Mandy, maybe even dale. I don’t think we will get their reactions just the emotion of them at the funeral
We could still see their reactions in the next episode
Yes. This was perfectly done.
You know what makes this moment truly beautiful and horrible at the same time is that we've known it was coming for seven seasons now and it still hits like a bullet train. One minute the person you love is in your life and the next they are gone without warning. And this show captured that moment perfectly.
George Cooper was one of the greatest TV fathers. Missy and him at Red Lobster to laying in a ditch during the tornado George had so many layers. I cried more for the Cooper family than any other TV family who lost a character.
Lance Barber was amazing and I agree this is why this scene is affecting so many people.
The way Sheldon just remains stunned and sits down is pretty normal in hearing such devastating news like that. And then you hear the cries in the distance just makes it even more real. You're completely detached and shocked to the core that nothing around you feels real.
Pause at 3:35, you don't need to keep watching. It's just George at the door and they all leave for the photo and have a lovely time
George wouldn't need to knock 😥
The good ending
@@nickstonef he left his housekeys at work & the door was locked.
@@michaelhughes8733are you stupid? If George hadn’t had the heart attack and came home, he would’ve had his keys with him and wouldn’t have needed to knock, like I literally said above
And skip the last two episodes and what a happy ending.
That “he’s gone mare” holy shit that guys a good actor
Edit: wow, after over a decade on UA-cam I got more than 3 likes on a comment😂
Him loosing his friend and colleague was painful enough but having to tell his family
wow….
They both are
I haven't seen too much media, but from what I have seen, it was the best portrayal of death I've ever seen. It was a normal ass day, everybody doing their normal ass things, talking about the future, taking each other for granted, not in an ungrateful way but in an autopilot way, & BAM, somebody else tells you your loved one died. Right in the middle of your day, the middle of your plans which you had with that loved one.
Well, he dealt with many deaths back in Miami.....😅
He didn’t say mare
One hour ago complaining about a photoshoot, what would they give now to be able to take that picture,that's life
I know I thought that too. I bet she wishes she had booked this for the day before for that one last picture of them all
Fr they did this death so masterfully. You always blame yourself when your loved one dies. When she's done with that, she'll still blame herself for not making the booking earlier to have a nice family photo with him in it.
@@CommanderWaddles even if she had that last photo she would always miss the ones after it that he should have been in. The events he should have been at. The time you have with loved ones is never enough
You are right
This hits hard. Not so much for the show, but for the reality that it reflects. It's that pause between "I've got some bad news... he's had a heart attack" and the final "he's gone" that hangs there like an eternity.
In real life, in that short moment, you know what's coming, you know what's about to be said, but you can't bring yourself to believe it. It's a surreal moment in time that is impossible to truly describe or understand unless you've actually lived through it.
These actors portrayed that moment so perfectly it caused me to relive a similar moment in my life like it was happening again for the fist time.
Talk about an emotional roller coaster in the span of about 60 seconds.
I know that feeling my grandpa died two years ago
Honestly, this makes me worry how I will be able to handle it if one of my parents die, especially with me being an adult now and them both being adults before my oldest sibling was born.
This death scene is too realistic. No dramatic scene. Just two friends equally devastated delivering the news.
When she said don’t be late, I knew this is the day. Sad! 😢
I didn't expect him to die like that. I expected a more sad farewell but tbh I like how the show writers did it. A unexpected death that no one saw coming.
Having his death this way makes more sense considering how closed off Sheldon is in the first seasons of TBBT.
Off camera on a sit com is most fitting. Nest week part one will be tough to watch, but they will end it somberly in part two with a happy look at their futures.
Anyone who has lost a parent can relate to this scene so much. When I found out my mom had a heart attack and didn’t make it, my reaction was exactly like Sheldon’s…….struggling to comprehend the devastating news just received. I can also feel for Tom and Wayne here……having to tell someone bad news that will turn their world upside down….it was accurately portrayed how difficult it is to even begin to find the words, and the pain of having to deliver it.
I can relate. My dad will be gone 12 yrs next month. He got lung cancer from smoking. They gave us an est time of 8-12 months, longer with chemo. So he started chemo.
He died 8 days later. It was really overwhelming. Most of the fam didn't even know he had cancer yet. It just went so fast.
Don't ever take time or loved ones for granted. You just don't know... ❤
This hit extremely hard for me. I grew up watching TBBT and YS with my Dad and was a bonding experience for us. We rewatched the series up until a week he passed. He went as quick as George did. It was real enough to make me relive that day.
George Sr. is my favorite character on the show. It doesn't even seem like he's acting because he plays his character so well; the typical southern dad.. who shows tough love in a good way
The fact that George said “wouldn’t miss it” before leaving the home makes the ending much painful to watch😢
The fact the seen just emphasizes how Sheldon is for one of the most rare moments in his life completely silent as his face reddens makes it a great acting moment.
It's " "SCENE" not "SEEN"
@@lcaceci43 bro it's called a typo chill
I've never felt so heartbroken when a fictional character passed away before I watched the last scene in this episode. I actually watched it today at school and almost shed a tear. Rest in peace, George Sr, you were an awesome dad and a great husband 🕊️
Bazingo
"see yall later' and that was his final words to his family. its so sad seeing Geroge's last talks with everybody before his unexcepted passing
Some years ago I added an "I love you to my good byes with my children . " Took some flack from SI's.
Crying so much from just this clip even though I haven’t watched season 7 as of yet. This is such a REAL way of portraying death. That’s what makes it hit so hard.
This scene made me realize that you never know what’s going to happen today, tomorrow or this week because nothing is promised in life. That’s why it’s important to spend every moment of every day with your loved ones while you still can and letting them know how much you love and appreciate them.
3:00 the moment theyd never see him again. Never ever felt this for a tv character before
Damn. I’m still feeling grief. For a fictional character. Even now, a few days after the episode aired. It’s a mark of how real this felt. It’s a normal day. He leaves for work. And suddenly he’s gone. You will be missed George Sr. Well done Lance! Great portrayal!
George goes in to the sunset on the white horse and with the shining armor!
That means nothing when your loved one dies. Just another empty platitude.
Even though this was expected, I didn't wanted this to happen.
I was not ready to see George go and this threw me off because I thought it would happen in the final episode when I saw the news get delivered I paused for 5 minutes.
I know it’s a TV show but it felt real they are very talented
My daddy passed away at work of a heart attack, my mama had supper on the table waiting for him to get home when his boss called and said to get to the hospital...the supper was still sitting there when we got back home later that night. I will never forget every aspect of that whole week. And George reminded me of my daddy ..this has hit so hard i knew it was gonna be bad but i still wasnt ready for it, or all the memories it brought flooding back..
I hardly shed tears for any fictional character in a show but this one managed to make me bawl out. RIP George Marshall Cooper Sr. You were a great father on Young Sheldon and definitely the greatest father on a TV show.
What makes this scene great is how sudden it is.
There isn’t a foreboding atmosphere or a buildup, it’s just another day like any other.
It honestly feels as if we lost the actor not just the character
What a worst way to end Mary and Georges Relationship in a last goodbye 😭
Actually, what a real way to end it. My grandfather died of a cerebral hemorage at work at 52 years old. My grandmother told me that the morning he went to work, he started to walk out the back door, turned and looked back, then went on. That was the last time she saw him until later under a sheet at the hospital. This is totally believable. That is life.
Still Hurts 😭😭😭, haven't watched young Sheldon in a while , but this episode touched me so much
Mary never really loved him..just use to fact they had to get married...not really but what did years ago. Many unhappy couples.
@@GeorgettaHolder-jg2eqNot true after watching this whole season, She does loves him
@@simpayshenaides The next episode’s promo says too
A reminder to all that you should cherish every moment you have with your family, as you don't know how precious it is till its gone
I felt this scene, its so real
The fact we never saw Georgie and Mandy’s reaction gets me!
They might open the next episode with that.
dw there's a finale it's probably there
I think they wanted to remove Mandy and the baby from the scene so that it would be just the immediate family reacting to the news but yeah it’s very odd that Georgie wasn’t in the room too. Would’ve made more sense having him there hugging Mary while Memaw hugged Missy.
There’s more story mentioned in tbbt so they might show it in young Sheldon
George isn't gonna get to see his granddaughter grow up 😭😭😭😭
Saw an interview with the the show's director the other night. In it he explained that this was for the most part a happy funny family show. Their decision to let George die off camera was to basically let the show give a bit less live grief to an audience who'd experienced mostly joy and wonder thru this show. I agree. Good call. Still a terribly sad scene. George Sr was a great papa. What an actor. Kudos to you sir....
The acting was very good in this 😢It gave me all those feelings you get when you actually hear someone you cared about passed away, that gut wrenching feeling in your stomach and chills 💔
the fact missy said no to driving to school with george is so sad. that would've been the last opportunity to see him and she didn't even know.
The moment George said see yall later I felt tears in my eyes knowing what was coming anyone else felt the same?
"See you all later" Wow... 😭 I never thought those words would make me cry the way they did, but man...RIP George Sr.
03:55 I’m surprised none of these three had some smart-ass remarks to say about George!
3:08 This was when my heart started getting heavy.
Superb acting. They sold this scene and even had me in tears!
George’s last words were “see y’all later” 😭
Getting into a shock like Sheldon did is one of the worst feelings ever. You instantly go into a trauma and it will only let you process those emotions years later. The nerve system stores the grieve and will effect your development for a long time while you are locked in your own dark world. It's hell to be that disconnected. These actors are amazing and I felt my heart strings being pulled ❤
It’s a day to have been expected yet no one could handle it
I love that Missy and Sheldon switch rolls when the real estate lady does her walkthrough😂😂
Mary knows when she opens the door and sees the principal and Wayne.
How did she know?
@@ChristopherBingham-xx8xl You can see she is starting to get upset before they even say anything. She can see they are not there to deliver good news.
@@jimantle268but she didn’t know it was about George until they said it
Yeah it’s the fact they are both even there and the looks on their faces. She knew it wasn’t good news but I don’t think even she expected that.
@@brennathecatlover4360 Her face says it all, the first moment she saw George's colleagues without George she knew what they were going to say

Damn wanted to see Georgie’s Reaction
Hopefully, we’ll get to see his reaction the following and final episode
Yeah I don’t get why he wasn’t included in this part I would have liked to have seen all their reactions. Georgie was the closest to his dad.
@@susanpark3451pretty sure that the screen turns black after Sheldon keeps staring and the episode ends
Maybe they want to open the next episode with that and they want his reaction to shine on its own
@@spiderghost765 I hope your right
It's that's normal in real life too. No one knew in family that it's the last time they were seeing George when he said bye and closed the door.
The last time a death on a TV show got me upset was almost 50 years ago when Col. Blake was killed on MASH.
That is so true, in Young Sheldon we all knew George Sr. death was coming, in MASH nobody saw Henry Blake's death.
and what made it memorable was that the doctors were operating in real time they had to finish the operation and had no time to process the news. Henry was said to be going home back to his family but they shot his plane down no survivors I saw the clip.
I was thinking the same thing.
George Cooper death was the most heartbreaking & most devastating moment ever on Young Sheldon!
I knew that George was going to die soon this season, but it doesn't make it any less heartbreaking. The Coopers family will be mourning the loss of a loved one, and the future that they could have shared in Houston. 💔
I don't know if anyone's pointed this out yet but the way Sheldon sits down in the chair when he realizes his dad is gone is a lot like how Howard sits down in the comic book store in TBBT when he gets the phone call and finds out his mom died, and here Sheldon is shocked and upset, though it doesn't seem to properly sink in, since he has a hard time processing his own emotions, but he understood how Howard felt more than anyone else when his mom died which makes the moment in TBBT that much more impactful when he promises Howard that he has friends to help him through it and that he's one of those friends even though he didn't get have any of his own when he lost his dad especially when considering how self-absorbed Sheldon can be. Also, while Connie and George had their differences, it's obvious she still loved him when she breaks down with Missy and Mary, but what makes it even sadder is the realization that, just like how Connie lost Charlie, Mary just lost George. To be honest, while I know TBBT was made before Young Sheldon, and there's still probably a lot of continuity errors, I'm surprised Mary was even able to hold onto her faith after losing her husband and I was just kinda hoping that, somehow, Young Sheldon would've been set in an alternate universe, since Sheldon loves the multiverse theory so much, where George didn't die.
Poor Sheldon. His father was a good man.
We all seen this coming and it's still a gut punch. I was 18 when my dad died. I was lucky enough to tell him I love him and he said it back. 10 minutes later, he was gone. Love you Dad.
When he said “I can’t wait to see that” it hurt because even if it did happen he never would have seen that
I cry every time I see this scene 😢
It's really sweet he had that last beautiful conversation with Georgie Jr. They finally show such a great bond between the two
Heart attacks can be rather tragic. Honestly it would leave a lot of people upset and possibly devastated. I've lost a few good people. My Gramps, My principal, my puppy and my friend. It made me a very emotional wreck at that time. It did remind me that I should be more compassionate around others. Especially family friends and loved ones. The saying is, "when you're in the dark, there's always light at the end of the tunnel". With it all being said and done, try to hang in there.
This hits differently when you’ve lost a parent 😢
My father died over a year ago. So if you've lost either of yours I can totally relate and sympathize.
I'm going to say this for anyone who hasn't had to break news like this to anyone before, always have them sit down first. I've seen grown men and women pass out and collapse from news like this. And this is just speaking from one instance. I hope you all never have to be the one who is cursed with such a chore.
Damn the way Sheldon just sits there and you can physically see his brain trying to compute the information of George’s death is soo sad. George fought for Sheldon’s freedom as much as he could and he’s mostly the reason Sheldon’s even going to Caltech. His last act was offering his daughter a ride too, who knows he might of still been alive if she had went along.
I think his death was inevitable even if Missy went with him. When the heart gives out, it gives out. He barely survived the first two times, but the third one was too much for him.
I cried so hard because my mother died of a heart attack several years ago. I know this was acting, but, this really happens to people, that's
the really hard part and you never get over it because it was a family member, I will miss Young sheldon so much,
they all were wonderful actors,
My dad passed in 1984 when I was 37. Two days before, we'd had a stupid and silly argument and that was the last time I spoke with him. I'm now 77 and it haunts me to this day and despite the fact I have two loving daughters and three granddaughters, who I adore. This scene brought back those regrets. Don't do what I did. There are no guarantees of a tomorrow. Thanks, "Young Sheldon," for doing a beautiful job of handling this delicate topic.
I saw this yesterday live, as soon as the guys were at the door, I was like "Noooo!!" 😭😭😭 I wasn't ready for George to die
@@dgfdfgdfg-t2o Yes, on TV live of course
The way that Sheldon is just regretting all the moments that he didn’t spend with his dad
Missy: “He’s okay, right?”
Now bus ride will be the only choice she has.
Oh, no. No, no, no. No, no. No. He is not okay. He will never be okay.
That was heartbreaking.
The last time I saw my grandfather alive was on Christmas and I was so excited to hang out with my cousins that I barely said anything to him other than "bye, I love you" when we left. He called us right before the ball dropped on New Years and said he could feel that 2015 was going to be a great year. He was gone within an hour.
I knew that this was going to happen, I thought I was ready from the very beginning, from the time I watched “TBBT” but watching this series I became so attached to him. I just dreamed that I had such a father. As Sheldon said:"He may not have been the World's Greatest Dad, but maybe we weren't the World's Greatest Kids"
RIP George Cooper♥️
George was one of the best dad characters in tv. RIP.
Knew about this since years from TBBT then too, i wasn't ready for it. George come back don't leave the house, we love you! ❤️😭
A friend of mine who was a dad to 5 kids died of a heart attack at age 45 back in 2011. I was very close him, his wife, and kids. He even made Christmas cds with his singing voice before he died and i listen to them all the time. Losing him suddenly was the worst day of my life as much as this was the worst day of Sheldon's life if you'd ask me. I was totally not expecting this series to sadly end with a sad ending.
As soon as Mary saw them at the door she knew what was going on
The way MeeMaw grabs Missy… we all know how much she hated George, but in the moment… I bet she’d of given anything to see him walk through that door just one more time!
I don't feel like she "hated" George. She actually loved him, they just had that "mess with each other" attitude throughout the series, and they always helped each other out when needed.
@@cj2130 OR, maybe she did that because she DID hate him and is now filled with regret because it’s too late to make things right.
