The Cooper family is sticking around at CBS as the network has given a full season order to Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, the spinoff to The Big Bang Theory prequel, Young Sheldon.
The show, from co-creators and executive producers Chuck Lorre, Steven Molaro, and Steve Holland, sees Montana Jordan and Emily Osment take the lead as Georgie and Mandy, a young couple in the early days of marriage following an unexpected baby. Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage essentially picks up where Young Sheldon left off, shifting focus from boy genius Sheldon (Iain Armitage) to his elder brother Georgie and the family he’s become a part of.

“With the resounding success of The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon, we were instantly on board when Chuck, Steven, and Steve brought us the idea to further explore this world through Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “The enthusiastic audience reception has demonstrated the enormous appeal of these characters and we can’t wait to see all of the hilarious fun this season will undoubtedly deliver.”
For those less acquainted with the new spinoff, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage explores the ups and downs of married life for the titular couple as they live under the roof of her parent’s house. Needless to say, close quarters is a breeding ground for comedy as Georgie and Mandy contend with her mom Aubrey (Rachel Bay Jones) and dad Jim (Will Sasso). Additionally, Mandy’s brother Connor (Dougie Baldwin) is also at home.
