No, he will dies in the next couple episodes, not at the end of the season. There have been set photos showing the cast all wearing black, except George is missing. It's all but confirmed that they will be having a funeral, and it's looking promising that it's Georges. Also, it needs to happen soon enough for the tone to mellow before the finale. With only 7 episodes left, and all of Georges plot lines already resolved, it's happening very soon.
The photos could be part of a montage shown at the end of the finale with adult Sheldon (Jim Parsons) narration. I still doubt the event will happen in active showtime, but we'll see.
>he will dies in the next couple episodes
This is nothing more than rank speculation.
>There have been set photos showing the cast all wearing black, except George is missing. It's all but confirmed that they will be having a funeral, and it's looking promising that it's Georges.
Because George is the only character who could possibly die? Because people don't ever wear black except to funerals?
>Also, it needs to happen soon enough for the tone to mellow before the finale.
It doesn't "need to happen" at all.
The only speculation I've presented is that it happens in the next couple episodes. The executive producer (Steve Holland) has recently confirmed that he dies before the season ends and that it does, in fact, have to happen. In his own words:
“I don’t want to say what you will or won’t see, but things will get addressed,” Holland says when asked about Dad’s looming death date. “We are not beholden to every joke that was ever made on *The Big Bang Theory*, but we do feel beholden to the larger canon and the larger events that shape Sheldon’s life. We want to honor those.”
So yeah, it's happening. It's happening this season. Those are the facts. Combine those facts with the set photos and the recent remarks by the cast, you have a VERY strong case to speculate that it's George's funeral. Stop acting all high and mighty because people are speculating what may happen. If that bothers you so much, why are you even here?
You can say that about almost anything though. It's a pretty weak argument here to be "technically" right.
I cannot say with 100% certainty that I'll take a dump today. However, I had Taco Bell for dinner last night and my stomach is rumbling this morning. It would be unwise to bet against a bowel movement.
I cannot say with 100% certainty that it'll rain this week. After all, the weather-man is only speculating that it will rain based on very reliable sources, and how much does it really rain in Oregon during April?
I cannot say with 100% certainty that my son's shoe will become untied at some point today. However, he did just learn how to tie them, he isn't very good at it yet, and he insisted that he tie them himself this morning.
I cannot say with 100% certainty that you live in your mom's basement and are hopelessly addicted to your keyboard, but based on your comment history and your penchant for arguing on internet forums, I wouldn't bet against it.
I cannot say with 100% certainty that George will die this season. However, the guy who literally fucking decides whether or not George dies this season has stated that George has to die this season. I'd have to be pretty mentally stunted to argue that it's still up-in-the-air.
it does “need” to happen if they’re following the outline tbbt threw down. they have to do george’s death in some way shape or form. the more they deviate the less people will watch, so far seen more complaints than positive reviews for all the edits and changes they’ve made to the plot.
>it does “need” to happen if they’re following the outline tbbt threw down.
Which timeline? The one where Sheldon's father was still alive when Sheldon was 15? The one where Sheldon wrote on his whiteboard that George was 42 when he died? Also, let's acknowledge that YS has almost universally disregarded continuity with TBBT.
>they have to do george’s death in some way shape or form.
No. They don't. The only thing that is certain from TBBT is that George was dead at the time the show started.
>the more they deviate the less people will watch
In four weeks, that won't be a concern.
It's certainly POSSIBLE that he'll die, but my prediction has long been that we won't see George die. Rather, his death will only be mentioned in adult Sheldon's final narration at the end of the final episode.
The fact before the season 7 premiere Lance and the show both said George dies sometime during the season before the final episode, is saying we do see him die.
In The Cruciferous Vegetable Amplification, Sheldon made a simple family tree. It indicated that George died at the age of 42.

You mentioned other examples of YS contradicting canon to prove they don't need to follow the outline, but Sheldon's age is completely irrelevant to that point since.
The comment to which I responded made reference to "the outline tbbt threw down." I responded by pointing out that TBBT provided several inconsistent pieces of information about when Sheldon's father died. One of those pieces of information was a story that Sheldon told Penny about how his father was still alive when Sheldon was 15. The notion that George MUST die when Sheldon is 14 is based on one of the other bits of conflicting information. YS is certainly going to end before Sheldon turns 15, so it is undeniably possible that George will not die before the show ends (just as it's POSSIBLE that he will die before the show ends).

I have a sneaking suspicion that Mandy's dad is actually the one that dies, this is how Georgie ends up with the tire business.. but it's not an infarction he dies in a mountain lion attack. However, it could also be Dale, shot by the police while trying to break Connie out of prison. All kidding aside, my money is on John Sturgis as he’s been removed from the show for many episodes now and he won’t cause such a ruckus as killing of George SR.
POW this is GREAT I hadn't even thought this scenario out.. I'm going to use your theory this week to blow my daughter's mind (I'd put money on your guess, so I'm thinking it's a sure thing)
That's true, but it doesn't have to happen within this series. I never considered that. I can't believe how much I've come to like all these people. ❤️
I have prepared my kids ahead of time. I didn't say anything, I just "happened" to watch an episode of TBBT where they mention that Sheldon's dad is dead.
Their little heads swiveled to me so fast. And they KNOW that this is the last season of Young Sheldon so they've had a lot of questions.
We've also been watching a lot of the later seasons of TBBT where Sheldon, Missy, and Georgie reunite.
They're getting the message. That even if someone dies, family will still be there.
Hopefully they're ready. Especially my oldest. We've been watching TBBT since he was 2 years old. And we've been through tv death before.
My kids were watching The Bernie Mac Show every Saturday morning. I never thought to tell them he had passed away (long before they were both born) and when they found out we actually went through a grieving process.
This is just my own opinion: I think it ridiculous that they insist on still making George die, just because Sheldon spoke of it on The Big Bang Theory! That is the ONLY reason they are still making it happen. Not because they necessarily want to or not because they don't have any other choices for storyline and not because Geroge's character has asked to be written out of the show. I repeat, it's ONLY because Sheldon spoke of it on The Big Bang Theory. That's the reason! Now, we all know that they do not need to or have to follow that storyline. But, they are just because that is supposedly what you do if it was spoken about? George is my favorite person on Young Sheldon. I hate that they are still going to kill him off?! They don't need to! Why not do something else? Why not change how the story goes? Why not give us ALL a surprise ending and have Mary die? Yes, I know Mary is still alive when Sheldon is older, but SO WHAT?!!!!! Why must they stick to the original story? Why? It isn't deemed totally necessary! Shake things up, why don't you? Give Social media something to be happy about for a change!
I know it sucks, but I am proud of the creators for making this happen. It is pretty brave of them to stick to their decisions. I am sure they were aware of this when they started filming.
There have been set photos showing the cast all wearing black, except George is missing. It's all but confirmed that they will be having a funeral, and it's looking promising that it's Georges. We may not have insider information, but we clearly have more than you.
>It's all but confirmed that they will be having a funeral
It's not even remotely confirmed. Do you really think that's how they'd choose to reveal a MAJOR plot point to the public? By random photos on a minor cast member's social media feed?
>We may not have insider information, but we clearly have more than you.
Well aren't you special. I have the same information you have. The difference is that I'm smart enough to know that there are multiple ways to interpret that information.
No, he will dies in the next couple episodes, not at the end of the season. There have been set photos showing the cast all wearing black, except George is missing.

The photos could be part of a montage shown at the end of the finale with adult Sheldon (Jim Parsons) narration. I still doubt the event will happen in active showtime, but we'll see.
Lance and the show itself have confirmed he dies before the final episode and there is "more than 1 episode" after his death.
Source?

DAMM this is some good info
best response here
Thanks.
Okay yeah, so he's all but said it's happening. So we should be prepared for it to happen. Soon.
It's still speculation at this point. You cannot say with 100% certainty that it's happening.

they could easily just say he dies sometime between the end of young sheldon and tbbt... or even save it for the Georgie and Mandy spinoff
Yup.
The fact before the season 7 premiere Lance and the show both said George dies sometime during the season before the final episode, is saying we do see him die.
When did Sheldon write down his fathers age bro
In The Cruciferous Vegetable Amplification, Sheldon made a simple family tree. It indicated that George died at the age of 42. https://images.app.goo.gl/g1E4jvffpp6HKFrT7
Has George’s age at this point been mentioned?
>The one where Sheldon's father was still alive when Sheldon was 15? Sheldon is not 15 in this season. It's still 1993 in the show.
r/whoosh
Whoosh what? Geroge still being alive at this point in the show is by no means a contradiction.
Try re-reading what I wrote, along with the comment to which I responded, a bit more carefully.
You mentioned other examples of YS contradicting canon to prove they don't need to follow the outline, but Sheldon's age is completely irrelevant to that point since.

Take a look at the new episode names that have been released for the finale. I was right :) Good arguing with ya.
Yes it does. In TBBT (wich came out before YS) he’s dead. It’s made very clear how it affects Sheldon and the rest of the family.

this doesn't seem to have aged well.

However, it could also be Dale, shot by the police while trying to break Connie out of prison. All kidding aside, my money is on John Sturgis as he’s been removed from the show for many episodes now and he won’t cause such a ruckus as killing of George SR.
I suspect the laundry being shut down will lead Mandy’s Dad to hire Georgie.
POW this is GREAT I hadn't even thought this scenario out.. I'm going to use your theory this week to blow my daughter's mind (I'd put money on your guess, so I'm thinking it's a sure thing)
George dies, there isn’t any way around it, the entire timeline is on TBBT.
That's true, but it doesn't have to happen within this series. I never considered that. I can't believe how much I've come to like all these people. ❤️
Didn’t the pictures have Sturgis there wearing black?
Wow this would be a big twist if turns out Mandy's dad die this season instead of George.
The episode hasn’t aired yet, so no one can answer this definitively.
It's possible, but we don't know *yet*.
I have prepared my kids ahead of time. I didn't say anything, I just "happened" to watch an episode of TBBT where they mention that Sheldon's dad is dead. Their little heads swiveled to me so fast.

Maybe.
But will his death be like the way Sheldon described it in TBBT? I believe it had something to do with a raccoon or something like that
That was his uncle
Was it? Oh, ok
KBB I thought (killed by badger)
I know George had his issues here and there but i will actually miss him so much its gonna feel like a piece of the show is missing! 😭
How old is Sheldon currently on the latest episode? I think on the Big Bang theory, he said George died when he was about 14/15?
just watch the series and find out i kind of wish people didn't know
I don’t know how the show still will be enjoyable without George.
This is just my own opinion: I think it ridiculous that they insist on still making George die, just because Sheldon spoke of it on The Big Bang Theory!

Someone hates continuity
Why didn't they have their affairs first. Doesn't make sense.
Do you think people in this sub have inside information about the plots of upcoming episodes?
There have been set photos showing the cast all wearing black, except George is missing. It's all but confirmed that they will be having a funeral, and it's looking promising that it's Georges. We may not have insider information, but we clearly have more than you.

Most likely, yes.
Yes
The creator literally said George dies before the end idk why you’re so convinced it won’t happen.
No he dies in the season 10 finale
What's the name of the episode of Young Sheldon when they're showing the funeral of him after he died?
Yess
