They also had a female friend called Gilda (played by Iris Bahr). Katie was played by actress Amanda Walsh. From the later series, only Johnny Galecki and Jim Parsons were in the cast, and their across-the-hall neighbor Katie was envisioned as "a street-hardened, tough-as-nails woman with a vulnerable interior". The program's initial pilot, developed for the 2006/07 television season, was substantially different from its current form. It is the only season not to feature John Ross Bowie as the recurring character Barry Kripke and Kevin Sussman as Stuart Bloom.įurther information: The Big Bang Theory § Production Rajesh "Raj" Koothrappali, who cannot speak to her as he is too shy to talk to women (a case of selective mutism), unless intoxicated in which case he becomes a smooth talking yet highly overly aggressive womanizing flirt.ĭuring Season One, Sheldon loses his job for insulting his new boss, finds his ego bruised by a child prodigy, and becomes unable to bear being part of a lie that Leonard has told, and Penny and Leonard go out on a date in the season finale.

Continue to tune in to see if George’s health problems get any worse or if his awkward encounters with Brenda evolve into something much deeper.The first season of the American sitcom The Big Bang Theory was originally aired on CBS from September 24, 2007, to May 19, 2008, over 17 episodes. Young Sheldon airs on CBS on Thursdays at 8:00 p.m. That’s maybe not for the best considering what’s ahead for his character, but the audience can decide for themselves on that. That feels like too big of an event for the CBS spinoff to bypass, so I’d wager until that, and his official grad school admission to CalTech happens at 14, George Cooper will still be around. The question, though, is will George die in Season 5 of Young Sheldon? At the moment, I’m heavily leaning towards no unless we see Sheldon jump forward a couple of years in age and see his discovery of the affair. Of course, this can be easily fixed by introducing more time jumps in Season 5 and elsewhere, so it’s not something fans should be too concerned with. Iain Armitage is 13 years old, so eventually, Sheldon Cooper is going to need to age with him, or it may start to look weird. Young Sheldon could certainly change the previously established story of George Cooper’s death, especially with the rapidly aging younger cast.
