It’s the fact that it’s “see y’all later” but they won’t. Changes the whole plot. In the start of the show it Sheldon said “I never got to tell my dad that I loved him as much as I did before he passed” and I feel like we all forgot about that.
it’s always worse when it’s out of nowhere. My last words to my mom when i was 16 were something like “don’t forget to pick me up from work” and i can only hope i said “I love you” following that sentence. I just didn’t wanna be forgotten to be picked up, but little did I know that was the least of my problems that day. The day after my mom’s funeral, my great aunt died. Life is one blow after another. I just turned 20, but it seems like I’m already forgetting my memories with her after 4 years
@@BOJACKH0RSEMAN420one Monday I was picked up from school by my mom. She just got off the phone with my grandma(her mother) and the last thing she heard was Ow. My grandma had a fatal heart attack that was instant. I remember the last time we had a proper conversation was her angry at me for destroying a bench. I wish I would’ve said some other words like Bye Grandma or Cya you later. It’s been 2 years now.
RIGHT? & him and his wife had finally repaired theor marriage & he was gonna see his son off to grad school & he just got a grandbaby.. Mary's upcoming "This wasn't supposed to happen" is the best way to describe how absolutely fucked this is. It actually makes sense why she goes on to only talk shit about him. Her coping is gonna be relying on God but the only way to not hate God for taking him would be to rationalize why God did her a favor by taking him early & souring her memory of him to be able to live on.
Dare I say that's usually how life goes? In my own family, my uncle - the patriarch of the family - who gave up decades of his life to forge a family business and earn a living that could lift all of us out of poverty.... sold the business, retired, had his children sorted out; getting his health in order and finally.... just about to turn the page and start enjoying life..... died of a sudden heart attack a couple weeks before his 65th birthday. 2013 was a horrible year for our household. You know how they say deaths come in threes? Uncle John died in June. John W. , a very dear, close family friend passed away quite suddenly. Ivan, our beloved Korat cat - best kitty cat in the whole wide world also went missing and presumed to have died. Incidentally, in Russian, "Ivan" is loosely translated as "John".
@@commanderwaddles3483 Different story but same feel. My mom has been struggling to raise me and my bro. When I was done with college and me and my brother started to earn the big bucks it was all for naught.... I wanted to buy her so many stuff she always wished but held back on for the family. She was the type of person to always put her family before herself and when it was finally my time to spoil her silly ofr all the years of hardship... she was gone.
I skipped my morning psych class one day in college and decided to drive home (only lived 30min away) and do some laundry and my dad was home that day…I spent a couple hours just talking and drinking coffee with him on his day off work. He died later that day. Those 2 hours my daddy and I spent together making small talk have, and always will, been defining moments of my life. ❤
A few years ago I stopped in to visit my grandma after work. It was during the pandemic and the whole family stayed away from her to not give her Covid. I asked her if she wanted me to wear a mask and she said no, I finally a grandchild to talk to in person. We talked for a couple hours and she gave me a giant hug. She died the next day and I told the family how I visited her and it was great. They were so mad that they stayed away for her health but that was the worst thing for her to be lonely for so long. She was 92 and lonely and I’m so glad I spent that time with her.
Was going to stop and tell my dad I loved him , my wife bullied me into not stopping. He dead a few hours later . Never ever pass up a chance to tell someone you love them .
The way Sheldon had to sit down with a stoic expression on his face and trying to process the news of George’s death while he hears his family breakdown crying. Sheldon was never the same after his father died. This is so sad.😢
@@Emanuel-oo6mc true but who’s to say Sheldon doesn’t even notice them. He’s so enveloped in grief he fails to acknowledge others. It wouldn’t surprise me if that’s what happens. After all, it was already covered in TBBT that Sheldon never thought about how things were going for everyone else.
@@gear5soul i get your point, but in TBBT story Georgie took up the responsibility ( the boy is kinda dumb sometimes yes as we saw) But When push came to shove he took care of everything , as he said himself missy was a ,,dumb,, teenager, probably doing anything to cope with grief Sheldon mother was in bits too i would assume He was protecting Sheldon
Just like my dad 7 years ago. “Take care. We’ll see us again in the evening”. I never saw him alive again. Ever since then life is going downhill. Cat died 4 weeks later, brother-in-law died a year later, lost the most important person in my life another year later, lost my health in severe accident, then lost my job, now lost eyesight in one eye.
Damn. I can't say that I know what ur going through but i sincerely hope that ur luck will get better and better and that u will a long and happy life my friend.😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Anyone that's ever been point-blanked about the death of a parent knows this experience...I was sitting in the waiting room when the ER doctor came out with tears in her eyes and told me that my mother had just passed. I thanked her and just sat there for another 5-minutes before going home and sitting in silence for another 30-minutes before my emotions broke through and I was completely overwhelmed.
May your mother rest in peace. When my aunt passed away, I couldn't cry the first day, I was just thinking, I spent the day wondering how she passed away and whether this was real.I felt guilty because I couldn't cry.
I had a missed call from my mom one morning. Woke up, got ready for work, and called her back. She told me my grandma that I was super close with had died. I nervous laughed when she told me. Didn’t cry about it till after the funeral.
@@docj09 - It hits everyone differently. I actually found my mother on her dining room floor next to the table. I could tell that she had tried to brace herself against the table. I asked her if she was okay and she just said "I'm so dizzy!" to which I said, "should I call 911?". She said "yes." It's the last thing I heard her say...she had always been okay my entire life so I thought she'd still be okay. She wasn't. That was 23-years ago this last May 5th and I still miss her terribly.
Man this shit hits home!!! My father went into cardiac arrest. They just told me to hurry up and get there to the hospital. Finally arrive in and the doctors told me that they couldn’t revive him and he had passed away. I’ll never forget walking in the room seeing the tubes in his mouth. Crazy thing is he passed away a year after my mom from breast cancer she died on the 15th and he died on the 27th. This episode hit hard. I could barely finish it. Sorry for your loss, man.
@@jakecruise90 tbh Mary did too by saying that he was a “dumbass” and tried to fight a bobcat for some liquorice. But she was right when he told her to “take your time with Sheldon.”
@@louisewestie989 helped depict that sometimes women can be the issue in the relationship as Mary shit talked him when in reality he was the best they could ever have asked for
@@jakecruise90 exactly - he made out his dad was a multiple cheat as well when that really wasn’t the case at all for example when Sheldon told people “my mum gave my dad a lecture about his girlfriends” I think when we see Sheldon and Amy later on, I think we’re gonna get a “Roseanne” situation where all the events from “Young Sheldon” and the Big Bang Theory” were tweaked and changed, like what Roseanne did from when Dan had his heart attack. 🤔
I was the last person my father saw before he passed away. The image of him struggling to get air to his lungs still haunts me until now. He was a friend to everyone. A very generous man. I miss him everyday.
I saw my grandpa’s last minutes 😔 I couldn’t even sleep thinking of that.. At that moment , I somehow know he is not gonna make it and just stared at him because I can’t do anything else.. and then .. He went.. 😢
I went to visit my dad on this year's April 1st. Found his corpse there. His body had been there for two days. That day is forever stuck picture clear in my head. It sounds though your experienses were far harder to go through. To see it happen. My condolences to both of you.
As many others have said, George’s death was to be expected, but when it actually happened, it hits you like a rock. The scene was well executed, and the actors did a remarkable job.
I had read somewhere that they were not going to address it in this series, and instead in the spin-off after it had happened, so I was genuinely surprised by this one.
@@brianmorg I hadn't heard anything like that. I was always under the impression that it was going to be dealt with in the final, or next to final, episode of YS. I didn't know there was going to be a spinoff until pretty much the beginning of this season!
I have heard this described about multiple deaths in my life. A friend of mine had a grandparent with cancer and their grandfather described the death of his wife as such. “ you know it’s coming, so you are prepared, but when it falls, the weight of the rock still hurts”
Sheldon had his best Dad moment at Logan Airport. Missy when George saved her life. A normal death of an average health person comes like a thief in the night.
Me personally remember hiding from my dad the night before just because i didnt want to talk to him, because he was tired and was probably grumpy and was gonna make an offhanded commented about something so i just watched him through the crack in me door, he looked so sad his body was hunched and he was shuffling everywhere and knocked a few things over, it wasnt out of the norm for him when hes tired. Its hard to catch the warning signs when they dont present in a major way i just chalked it up to him being tired and needing to go to bed... i was wrong.
@@sir_freezy4933 it's important to share ur feelings and by writing them you can collect ur feeling and arrange them otherwise you would be a mess, good thing u commented, really opened my eyes
Yeah and sad part is, she may break down whenever she thinks of a moment with him and nay develop mental problems and have to at least go to therapy for a LONG TIME
This is chilling. I read how people complain about the death being offscreen, but i think this is better. You can imagine the regret and sadness that in george's final moments none of them were on his side, and same with george as it happens. Death can get you by surprise.
I felt the same way at first about the offscreen death, but after I changed my mind cuz of how impactful it was. None of them being by his side made it sadder.
it's also effective how normal their goodbye was to him in the morning, as nobody can ever anticipate something like this. really adds to the shock and regret how their wasn't time to say goodbye and prepare.
"Missy Regretted Not accepting that Ride to School from Dad for the rest of Her Life.". ~Is what Voice Over Future Sheldon should say in the Series Finale~
This just got recommended to me randomly. Never watched the show. This is probably one of the most realistic portrayals of death I've ever seen. The way Sheldon just sits in disbelief is very accurate to how many people would react to a situation like this.
Respect for how they did George last scene, simple, no ominous words or music. Because sometimes everything can be normal and suddenly someone you love is gone, can't wait to see the last episode, hope to see Georgie step up and give respect to George character
Honestly I truly felt Sheldon's reaction. Mary's, Missy's, and Connie's, all very apportiate reactions. But Sheldon's is just pure shock and disbelief. Everyone knows his aversion to change and the lengths he'll go to, to prevent it. This is one the thing he can do nothing about. Sheldon is truly powerless here. His look says it all he wants to deny it but can't find the words. Its something many of us can relate to.
Nobody associated with the show will say it, but Sheldon behaves like a high-functioning man with Asperger's (autism). His flat affect here (at least outwardly) fits.
when my Mom and brother died, the feeling I had I still can't put into words. Grief, obviously, but that vacuum and instant disconnect I felt are something I never want to experience again in my life, but having a Father, kids, a husband, and a dog I adore to the ends of the earth.. unless I go before any of them, I'll feel it again. I don't even want to THINK about it.
My mom and I watched this scene today, knowing he was going to die. We watched The Big Bang Theory, and we were prepared for it to happen. But when Mary said, "Be home by 4:00," we knew it was foreshadowing. Our jaws dropped open and we were even shedding tears. Even seeing Connie cry was so sad. Edit: not to be that person, but HOW DID THIS GET 231 LIKE IN 2 DAYS????
No one said goodbye dad. 4 o'clock, last words spoken to him by Mary. Missy passed on the ride with him to school. He just walked out the door like he did most days. We all have interactions in our lives exactly like that. My dad died when I was 15, I don't remember the last thing I said to him. I heard him getting up to go to work in the morning. It was the weekend so no school. I rolled over and went back to sleep. A few hours later I was the one that answered the door when they came to tell us he had died. None of them will ever be the same. Goodbye George, you were a good man, a good father, a good husband. 😪
This is why I always tell my grandma. I love you when I’m leaving or I’m off the phone so that’s my last words to her last words you’re here for me was I love you
If it gives you any comfort, by the time you’re 18 you’ve already spent 90% of the time you have with your parents, so you got a good amount of time in there
@@alexthegamer8433 I appreciate your point. I do not know personally, but I would expect most people had more valuable time with their parents as adults thatn when they were teenagers and didnt understand them. thanks
@@alexthegamer8433 I think this depends on your culture. Latinos and Asians will live with parents well into their 20s/30s when they get married or even for life. I wished other cultures also valued family as much. It's so sad that after you're 18 you see your parents so little.
He was the parent that made her feel seen and like she mattered. Like she wasn't just a runner up to Sheldon. Once she got into her teens and became snippy with everyone, it may have seemed like she didn't care, bit through the tornado and making fun of Sheldon together, you could still tell she loves him, she just has other things as her priorities right now. I definitely see her and Mary as being most affected by this (everyone's very affected of course). Mary's gonna feel do bad since it's only been recently that her and George have begun to communicate better and have mutually efforts of appreciation for eachother. And the DREAM JOB?? GUT PUNCH
I’ve seen people complain that it was off camera but the reason I personally like that they did that was because it shows that you won’t always have the chance to say goodbye. It highlights how the last moments with his family were spent by his daughter declining the ride, his son ignoring him, and his wife telling him where/when he needs to do something. And just like that he’s gone and that’s the last interaction they ever had with him. Again it highlights the fact that in a flash they can be gone and you never got to say goodbye.
Missy will regret taking the bus for the rest of her life now. As someone who lost his Mum at an early age, I can relate with every bit of this scene. It's heartbreaking
As someone who argued with their dad before he passed, this scene hurts me. We just had a small bickering and I just went to sleep without saying sorry, and when I woke up to do so he left to get my report cards and even texted my mom saying how proud he was of me I waited for him He arrived home and suddenly passed out in front of us. Dead on arrival, is what the hospital said. The fact I was giving hope to my father’s corpse is a memory I would do anything to forget. There was a lot of regret I had, and it had never left my side. So from now on I make sure to always say sorry in any arguments I have with my family if the bickering lasts
It wasn't her fault. She was a young girl and probably didn't want to be seen getting a lift from her father. We were all there at that age. She had no idea that father would pass.
That sudden weakness Sheldon experienced as he sat down hits too close to home. The last image I had of my Dad was when he went home late and invited me for a drink (which he usually never does). I was watching TV then. Told him I'd pass, so he went up, still looking at me. I didn't see him the next day and the next morning, we were informed of his death. I will forever regret that time I passed that invite, like Missy will. I love you Dad, wherever you are now. RIP George. People, cherish every moment you have with your loved ones. You'll never know it it's your last
The "He's gone" hit me right in the heart. Everything about this scene is emotional and handled well. It reminded me of my father's death and yes I cried.💔
I've received news like this. Then you have to gather yourself together to start making those same calls and delivering the same news you just got. Definitely some sad moments in life 😢
While everyone else is clearly showing their sadness by crying, I think the saddest part is when you see Sheldon. By not showing any emotion it actually shows more pain in him, you can do vividly hear his thoughts. So sad.
He did so good in portraying how his sudden physiological changes did all the expressing for him rather than crying or making a sad face. How he went cold, dissociated, time frozen, heart racing, room wavy. This cast was stellar
Sad thing about this scene is that we knew it was coming sooner or later in the series, and yet it still hits harder seeing the reaction than just hearing about it during The Big Bang Theory Series.
The last words I told my father were "I hate you." I never meant them, I just said it because I was an angry 12 year old but even after 11 years, it still affects me because I wish I got to tell him how much I loved him. I had a chance to make things right later that night but chose to stay with my mother and play on my playstation. I was at school when I found out he passed away and even there, I couldn't process the whole thing. At his funeral, I was playing a game on my phone and looking back on it, my family must have hated me. it wasn't until april, 3 months later, that it actually hit me and I broke down. I couldn't give him a proper goodbye, I couldn't see him anymore. The guilt, the regret, it all ate at me to the core. I wish things could have been different.
This is my biggest fear because I don’t think I can process it at the moment definitely it will hit me few months down the line and I’m completely devastated at that point.
We all say things we don't mean or can never take back. And in some cases, we never can. It is the last thing we say. But even with all that, and our words, our loved ones your father still loves you so much. True, we.still wosh we can undo the hurt and take it all back. But the love was never gone. It was always there even when they pass on
If a child never says that they hate you, you're doing a bad job. The last thing you said to your dad was teenager for "you're doing something right". I promise that he knew you loved him. And there's no wrong way to grieve. Three months, three years, thirty years-- we're all different. Please don't be so hard on yourself
Man why am I watching this?. My dad died a month ago after surgery. Getting the news from the doctor will always be one of the worst times of my life. I hope, if you’re reading this, that it doesn’t happen to you.
The fragile shaky hope in Missy’s voice is like a freight train bc you can feel her wishing with all her might it was like the last time and George pulled through
This scene hits me hard. My father passed away this last Wednesday. Im having a real hard time trying to process it all. I was around him everyday and now walking in the house and not seeing him hurts. Edit: I want to thank everyone here that have sent their condolences and support. It really means alot and I'm extremely grateful. On behalf of my family and myself, thank you.
So sorry. My father passed away just over a month ago. When I got the news TBH I was a lot like Sheldon. Said thank you for telling me or something, hung up the phone and just sat staring for a while. I'm OK then something hits me unexpectedly at real stupid times. No one processes things the same, there's no "right " or "wrong " way.
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad in 1986, and while I don't cry anymore like I did for a number of years, I still see him in my dreams, and almost daily think about what he would have said or how he would have joked at something.
Sorry to hear that. I lost my Dad 19 years ago to a sudden unexpected heart attack. Worst pain I’d ever had. I had some regrets, though we talked often I felt there were things unsaid or not said enough. Time lessons the pain of course but treasure the good memories, and any stories anyone tells you about him.
For those who have lost a loved one. You can see the moments that will lead to regret. Missy not accepting the last ride with her Dad, Mary not saying "I love you."
that was emotional. when my dad was in the last days of cancer taking him... i couldn't help because of a foot injury that made me unable to go up and down the stairs. not a day goes by i dont beat myself up that my dad was always there for me and i let possible amputation stop me from being there for him. he raised me better than a man that would leave anyone in a position to doubt me. this hit me hard because it is the polar opposite ... the Cooper family didnt get to be with him at the end. i guess im wondering what is better knowing you could have pushed harder or knowing you weren't there at the end? everything good about my charitable soul i learned from my dad. thank you and im sure the force is with you now
One thing sad about this is that we don't see Georgie's reaction. Out of the three kids, Georgie had more connection with his father. RIP George😢😢😢 Edit: 600 likes. Wow, thanks u so much. I can't wait for Thursday.
Over the year they gave each child a big moment with Dad. George was proud of Sheldon and the trip to Boston. George saved Missy's life The ladder scene The rekindled romance when Mary returned from Germany Even MeMaw congratulations on him getting the Rice job. The first time in the series he ever impressed her.
1:20 man, the principal’s face was the best acting in this scene Bro actually looks upset af This must have been so difficult to do for a principal and a best friend to tell a family they lost their dad
@@KahnzTV The principal particularly did a good job. You can tell he really liked George given their relationship. While the news is the worst you can ever hear, he delivered it with grace and care. I also liked how the Assistant Coach looked for Sheldon. In modern times communities are not as tight. Not today.
I was 10 when my father passed away. It's been 23 years and the sound of my mother screaming when she got the call that Saturday morning, still haunts me to this day. Some things you just don't forget, even though everything else from that particular day is a blurry memory stuffed away at the back of your mind.
i thought the same thing at one time, I use to even cry when they brought up death. my dad went away to spend time with his brothers last September, and never came back. He went into cardiac arrest and died. No funeral, no body, just good memories. I know where he went, and what I must do to see him again someday. It was an Honor calling him dad
Let’s get something straight Sheldon was downright selfish towards his own family he just left for college after his dad was laid to rest. George wouldn’t have allowed that if he were alive today
@@haenockkebede8855 While it may seem Sheldon was selfish, he was just being Sheldon. He is on the spectrum and he had to deal with it in the only way he knew how to deal with things- using his logic coupled with lack of understanding others' needs. Sheldon has a low emotional quotient and even if emotion is felt, it is so foreign that he fell back into what he does best. In Sheldon's case, it was to ignore the emotion and embrace his logic.
@rjb1216 Thats an interesting point actually. I was just thinking a few days agao that young Sheldon seems alot more adaptable than his TBBT counterpart. This, coupled with him having no friends around him and leaving his family for college could drive him to embrace only that which is famliar.
Mary was bitter and upset about her late husband George in TBBT. Her reaction here helps us understand why. Clearly Mary is both heartbroken and mad that he passed away.
That and they had to change young Sheldon for it to be more family friendly instead of the way Sheldon describes there relationship. He described it as more violent with a lot more fighting and George skeet shooting Mary’s collectible plates on the roof and Mary saying that “Jesus would forgive her if she put ground glass in my dads meatloaf”
@@MsBluebot The episode with adult Georgie shows how much Sheldon's memory was warped by his perseption of reality. The sheldon in TBBT might have a angry and bitter memory due to Mary's sole influnce on Sheldon after George's death. Where Georgie's memory is more true to reality due to him living the aftermath. Young Sheldon maybe closer to reality going off Georgie's reaction to Sheldon in TBBT
lost my dad a year ago to a heart attack and watching this genuinely felt like going through it again. props to the actors because they did such a good job portraying this
In TBBT Mary told Sheldon at his wedding that George would be so proud of him and that is so true,Geroge would be so happy that Sheldon found Amy and Geroge would love Amy like his own daughter
as my father recently passed away suddenly, the pain you see in Mary's face when she opens the door to two of George's colleagues feels real and the shock of not wanting to believing it. This scene had me choked up because i relate so heavily to it.
Where I grew up, the only color signals were typically black for a funeral, and nobody is allowed to wear white to a wedding except for the bride. And no black at a wedding unless you’re being mean and saying you don’t approve of the marriage.
I lost my father 2.5 months back, and all the fights, arguments have started to come back in my sleep now. There are regrets and what all I could have done to make him happy before he left us. I guess you can never accept the passing away, you just learn to live with it somehow over time. I hope you are in a better place now papa.
This reminds me a lot of when my father passed. I was about 12 years old (23 now), walking home from school right around the third day since i started. I see my aunts car pulled into our driveway, which I’ve never once seen her do. I walk in the door to hear my mother crying, i then ask “what’s wrong?” Naively, she says my dad passed away while driving my sister to university in Ottawa, 7 hours away. The last thing I remember telling my dad is “I love you” while giving him a hug, smelling his leather jacket, feeling safe and comforted by him. Only to lose him in the very same day of a heart attack. It tore open every emotion I didn’t know i had at that age. My family suffered tremendously, most of all my mother, who now had to raise two kids (my brother being autistic and low-functioning) made it almost impossible for her. I tried my best to be “the man of the house” and stoic like Sheldon. That attitude broke me even worse than if i just cried and talked to someone about it. My word of advice to losing a loved one. Please, oh please don’t act stoically. Open your heart to those in your life who simply want to support you. Talk to a therapist, and please cherish every moment you have with those you love.
What a powerful scene. I have to tell you that later in the evening I completely fell apart because it reminded me of being told my dad had just died. I went through a lot of Kleenex last night.
Damn this broke my heart💔. We knew it was coming but still hit like a ton of bricks. The pain displayed in this scene is exactly how everyone felt when my oldest brother passed 6 years ago. My God😢🙏🏿
I just lost my father 2 weeks ago and to tell you frankly this scene reminded me how everything was just normal but then again the most unexpected thing can happen
His off screen death is very relatable. That's how a lot of people find out in real life. I reacted very similarly to Sheldon here with my own Dad's death. The shock initially overwhelmed any emotion. Excellent scene.
My theory on Sheldon's TBBT view of his dad was to make his dad seem bad so he doesn't have to properly grieve his dad's death. Cause Young Sheldon's portrayal of his dad was far more loving though flawed like a normal human
George, your kids are gonna be okay. Sheldon is going to win a Nobel prize, but he'll also develop a close social group of people similar to him, who will become like a second family to him. He'll even find a very special woman who loves him for who he is. Georgie could sell a dog to a cat. His confidence and tenacity will help him start a successful business with locations all over the state. Missy might have a bit rougher go of it, but from what we've seem, she'll be a good mom, and she'll make friends wherever she goes. You should be proud of all of them. You did a good job.
in september of 2023, i lost my grandma while she was sleeping. you never know when your last moments together are going to be so make the best of them. her last words to me were "I love you so much buddy". For those ignoring the moments you have, stop because you never know when they will be the last
No death scene in cinema history made me crying. But this scene literally made me crying. My father passed away few month ago. I can feel the pain of Missy and Sheldon. 😥
His reaction was so well done. When I heard my father died, even though it wasn't unexpected as he had cancer, I felt like I was in a dream. The way he is hearing them cry but it sounds echoey and far away is exactly how I felt.
That doesn't indicate that it "hit him the most".... That isn't how processing news and information works! Everyone is different and hence responds differently but that doesn't express whether they're taking it more or less hard! So this comment makes no sense because you cannot feel or tell the innermost turmoil any one would be feeling in that moment, it's not a scale
@@rdronline_clipz again, you cannot say that! You physically cannot quantify pain from grief, they all display and express it differently so they're not even comparable! They're all hurt *differently*, that doesn't mean one is greater than the other!
I was dreading this episode... Love the character of George... he was often treated so poorly by his children and his wife... kind of how we treat family members... and then if they die... we think back about how we never said how much we loved them... never enough...
I cried when I first saw this and I don’t cry very often.. the reason this cut me so deep was because even though it’s a show, this stuff happens. It’s real. The second heart attack is usually what takes you under. I can relate to this, my grandfather had a heart attack last year, and he’s a guy that’s roughly the same size as George, I just hope he doesn’t have a second one. The doctor said the second one will be fatal.. but I have had other family members, such as my uncle, die from his second heart attack in 2010, he was a father too. So this is extremely relatable to not only me but everyone around the world id imagine.
You know, i would imagine it has to be an awful lot of pressure to say those last line knowing the path of your character, He spoke so honestly, great actor.
My dad passed away awhile ago. I know how it feels. My dad was the best dad i could ever ask for. Sometimes i wish i could've talked to him more. If I'd known that it was going to be the last time i was gonna be with him I would've said more than "hey dad? Did u know that this Friday's a PA day?", he died of a heart attack sleeping on our couch. The rest of that night was the worst night of my life. But at least he got to go peacefully. Me and my mom still needed him. I only hope that one day i can see him again.
Mine was my best friend my dad got lung cancer and the final he spent with family and later we watched our show gilmore girls. I heard my aunt and cousin finding him on the floor the very morning I lost my world 9 years ago
I really wish that they didn’t have to kill off George like that 😢. Yeah, I know they had to, because Sheldon mentioned in TBBT that his & Missy’s father died when they were both 14. I also heard that Chuck Lorre even regret killing him off. To be honest, I wish they didn’t either 😭. I broke down when Mary, Missy, and Meemaw broke down after when they finds out. Even the way Sheldon sat down, you can tell he was distraught by the news of his own father passing 😭. George Jr, Mandy, and her parents will probably de devastated too after what happened (especially Billy’s mother and the pastor as well).
Well that’s the problem when doing a prequel, you’re bound by your own or someone else’s rules to follow the proper structure of story lore. You can add your own lore if you want, but you need to have it fit the timeline narrative or make sure it doesn’t interfere with it. If you could, then we’d have Darth Vader be dead in the Obi-Wan Kenobi tv series instead of having Kenobi not killing Vader then and there. So, just expect the George and Mandy spin-off to be just as ruthless as well because again, whatever they established in the original source material limits the imagination of what could be added here.
They shouldn’t have made YS in the first place. I m sorry but you cannot retcon something just because you changed your mind. In BBT, I don’t think that the purpose was to make Sheldon exaggerated his memories with his father, George was supposed to be an abusive father and his death was supposed to be a relief for Sheldon family or at least something that he deserved. The main issue is that the writers have started to dislike Sheldon and are making everything to antagonize him or making former antagonist ( like his siblings who were bullied him originally) like perfect angels.
@teencritik5512 David Chase never treated characters' recollections as canon. And while Sheldon has a better memory than anybody in the Sopranos, he is less socially aware than a normal person. His descriptions of his friends in TBBT were consistently flawed or even wrong.
Far too often in this world we fail to thank and appreciate the steady presence of goodness the special few can pull off routinely. George’s death marked the end of a great life on film and sadly, we see how much we can take the most irreplaceable people around us for granted. I knew going in the probably of this moment, but it so sincerely hurt when it came. Touching and devastating all in a singular moment.
It was also like watching Roseanne again when Dan Conner had a heart attack at Darlene's wedding at the end of the episodes and the sound of the ambulance running thru the credits.
@@tammylewis2408that's who George reminded me of. Dan the original honest hardworking good dad who loved his wife and kids. George was that guy. I hate that they followed TBBT story.
This entire series honestly just shows your what prospective can really do to a persons image…it’s told by Sheldon whose supposed to have insane amount of recollection of even the most tiny details. It shows just how much of a good dad George really was to his family and how much he truly cared about them up until the very end. It also shows me that honestly out of the two parents the mother was by far no where near the level George was. He did so much and sacrificed so much for that family and genuinely tried to do anything and everything he could for each of them…everyone deserves a father figure like George growing up..
I’ll never forget when I found out my dad passed. Almost like this scene. My aunt and uncle knock on my door, the only words I said were “don’t tell me…” “…yeah”.
I remember being told by my mom my beloved uncle died suddenly...she and my nana came home and i was coming downstairs, she told me to go get my sister and my brother while trying not to cry, i had never seen her like that and it scared me...when she sat us down and told us what happened, Nana was hugging and holding my sister and my brother and i screamed and cried for hours, this just brought back that memory....
When I saw this episode, everything was silent and shocked. Just like my grandma has passed away… all over again. She died from heart attack. I was 13 when I heard the sad news. I really miss her
Yea I know the feeling, my grandmother passed away of a heart attack last Dec, 3 days after my grandfather's funeral. I'm not religious but I like to think she went to go be with him.
i was 14 when my grandma passed. almost 10 years later my grandpa tragically lost circulation and suffocated having food. I just wish I could've said goodbye. He was getting medical help at a retirement home..
I was 12 years old when my dad died from heart failure, and as hard as it was for me then, I still have a hard time excepting the fact that my dad is gone. I watched the scene from The Big Bang Theory when Sheldon talked about it to help Howard deal with his mom's death saying he has friends to comfort him, I felt the same way too.
This hits me really personally. 6 years ago, my own father had a heart attack and two months before, my grandfather passed away, and the whole experience left me traumatised for life, despite my dad surviving. Seeing this flashes it all back to me and makes me fearfully think on how that could've been him and I lost two dads in the span of two months. Although I didn't, it's still painful to reminisce on
