‘Georgie & Mandy’ Could Still Bring Back the Most Unexpected Fan Favorite ‘Young Sheldon’ Star


While his character met a tragic end before the events of the current series, it seems that there have already been discussions between the creative team about ways to possibly include Barber again. Speaking to TV Line, executive producer Steve Holland addressed the chances of fans getting to see George Cooper Sr. back on screens. He said:
“I mean, I think it depends. We would never want to undo anything. We’re incredibly proud of the Young Sheldon finale. But if we found the right way to do it …? I mean, Chuck [Lorre] has talked about how he lost his father many, many years ago, but he still dreams about him 30 years later. So, if we found the right sort of emotional reason for Georgie , and it didn’t just feel like a stunt — like, here’s George Sr. crawling his way out of the grave — and we treated it respectfully, it would be great to have Lance back on.”
