A new video set Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding reveals the return of a Young Sheldon villain. Since it premiered, the new show has introduced all of the remaining members of the Texas-based Cooper family. This was Chuck Lorre and his writers’ way of establishing a connection between Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding and Young Sheldondespite the change in narrative focus. Sheldon, however, remains absent. Interestingly, before the boy genius could appear, Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding brings back a supporting character who brought a lot of trouble to the Coopers.
In a new social media post from Emily Osment, Matt Hobby’s Pastor Jeff is making an appearance in Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding. Check out his image on set below:
The post comes from Osment’s Instagram Story, which features Hobby as Pastor Jeff during the show’s live studio recording. It’s unclear why the character arrives at the McAllisters’ house, and there’s also no information about which episode of Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding he will be inside. Regardless, it’s still exciting to see him back.
Why Pastor Jeff’s return at Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding is confusing
Pastor Jeff brought the Coopers so much trouble
Bringing in any character from the old show is fairly easy considering the events of Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding occur not long after the Young Sheldon end. In fact, it would be more suspicious if it didn’t feature the Coopers, but Pastor Jeff is a different case. Throughout the events of The Big Bang Theory prequel, he brought a lot of trouble to the family, stemming from his misguided commitment to his faith. The worst thing he did was banish Mary and her family from the congregation following the news of Georgie and Mandy’s unexpected pregnancy.
Soon after George’s death, Sheldon’s mother began to cling more intensely to her faith, which would lead to Laurie Metcalf’s version of the character in The Big Bang Theory.
It’s hard to find reasons for him to be involved in the story of Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding. THE The easiest way to explain his return is if he is linked to Mary and her current situation.. Soon after George’s death, Sheldon’s mother began to cling more intensely to her faith, which would lead to Laurie Metcalf’s version of the character in The Big Bang Theory. Since there is no one else to support Mary’s tendency to be overly dedicated to church, she will be able to spend more time with Pastor Jeff.
Our Take on Pastor Jeff, Georgie and Mandy’s First Wedding Return After Young Sheldon
Georgie and Mandy have a bone to pick with Pastor Jeff
Because so many other stories happened during the last two seasons of Young Sheldon, wasn’t able to investigate Georgie and Mandy’s reaction to what Pastor Jeff did for Maria and her family. Hopefully this will be addressed upon his return in Georgie and Mandy’s first weddingeven if just for a brief moment. The character’s return sets the stage for more familiar faces to join the new sitcom, which is set in the same Texas town as Young Sheldon. So characters like Brenda Sparks and George’s old coworkers could also easily appear.
With Pastor Jeff’s appearance now confirmed, questions are being raised about Sheldon’s cameo in Georgie and Mandy’s first wedding. It’s true that the boy genius is in California for his graduate studies, but the upcoming Thanksgiving special is the perfect time to reunite him with the rest of the Coopers. Unfortunately, although Mary, Meemaw, Missy, and even Dale will join the McAllisters for the holiday, he will not be present.
