      Yes. My reaction was like Sheldon's. I was 15 and was in shock. My dad's in the hospital and I strongly believe that he will survive. I did not cry, said goodbye or I love you to him because I thought that it would be a sign that I stopped believing that he's going to be okay. Then it happened. For so many days I just sat and was staring into nothing, thinking that I should've said I love him. That I can't bear losing him. He's all I got because my mom died when I was 12. Everything that happened in the hospital was on repeat in my head thinking what I should've done. I still do it now that I'm 24.
      I bawled my eyes out crying for 2 hours when I saw Sheldon's reaction. I know he can't process emotions that well but something in his reaction relates to mine. I watch Young Sheldon to sleep and the last 2 episodes are the only episode that I won't be watching on repeat.

      I feel like if Mary had been more open to seeing his side those mistakes would not have happened tho. Im not saying Mary was to blame, it was George’s actions, but the tensions that drove him there were not all caused by him, a relationship only goes south when one party stops seeing the others side causing the partner to start doing the same things in my experience. And in most situations if we are all honest with ourselves, most breakups should rightfully split responsibility for it. It does not have to be always 50/50 or even 60/50 it could end up 100/0 but that all depends on actions. And when i say that last statement i implore both genders to take ego and hubris out of the equation, both parties can be capable of the same injustices, we are all human after all.

    I loved the choice of his death being off-screen. It seemed so much more realistic because sometimes, that's how deaths occur. They don't die in your arms or right next to you, you say goodbye to each other like any other day and they walk out the door or hang up the phone, with neither of you knowing that you'll never see or hear each other again. It's sad, but that's how it is sometimes.

We don't always get to know when we'll lose them and I like that since what they depicted wasn't some romanticized send-off, that other movies and shows have done, and instead we got something real and jarring as a reminder to hold are loved ones a little closer.

    Watching the show from episode one after hearing about the death, seeing his heart attack in the first or 2nd episode, that makes a ton of sense seeing this short

    In the finale promos they showed him saying goodbye son which felt too obvious. But I'm glad that was just a what I'd scenario sheldon made up in his head. But WE got to see it. It was very symbolic without making it to obvious that was his last scene.

    This is probably the main thing that changed the continuity of the show. He knew he was playing a character that was canonically a soon to be dead cheating drunk, but be ause they liked the actor his drinking was scaled down (they talk in the show that most of the momey goes to his alcohol when they are doing taxes but he is hardly shown with a beer and never shown actualdrunk besides the fact that his recipts say he must be getting wasted at some point in the day. And they handwaved his cheating as, never being confirmed (because missy was told that the niegher kid found them alone in the chicken coop which lets face it, at best he caught them before they got their clothes off and hopefully not after.) And then they made downplayed the constant fighting between the parents, choosing to increase the mothers religion while downplaying the husbands deinking. Which of course makes everyone hate the mother because they changed her character that much. In Big Bang Theory she acts a lot more like Meemaw then the zealot in the show.
    To think, if the show started on his death and all the stuff he did was still canon we would hate him.

      @@BamBam_TYM he is literally wearing the same shirt in every video, an ai generated face wouldn’t be consistent in exact hair structure or stubble, but it would 100% recycle the look. Until I see this guy doing something that takes an entire body or is in real space, it’s a pretty safe bet his face is ai generated.
