Final episodes of ‘Young Sheldon’ to feature ‘Big Bang Theory’ Easter eggs
George (Lance Barber) and Mary (Zoe Perry), twin sister Missy (Raegan Revord), older brother Georgie (Montana Jordan) and grandmother Connie (Annie Potts), aka “Meemaw.”It’s a prequel to “The Big Bang Theory” (2007-2019), which followed the adult Sheldon, played by Jim Parsons, who also narrates “Young Sheldon” — co-created by Chuck Lorre, who also co-created “The Big Bang Theory.” (Zoe Perry’s mother, Laurie Metcalf, played the adult Sheldon’s mom in “TBBT.”)“We’re aware that ‘Big Bang Theory’ fans like those little Easter Egg moments, so there’s definitely going to be some of those coming up,” said Holland. “There are some ‘Big Bang’ references I think people will be excited to see and we’re excited to put them in.“Knowing this was our last season, we each had a personal list of things we wanted to acknowledge or make reference to or hide in the background — and I think ‘Big Bang’ fans will have a lot to look forward to.”Primarily, these last 14 episodes of “Young Sheldon” — the series finale airs in May — will focus on the Cooper family in the show’s late ’80s/early ’90s universe, with an occasional nod to its CBS predecessor.“Knowing this was the final season there were definitely some big events we knew we wanted to hit and characters we wanted to see again,” Holland said.“It’s tricky,” he said.
