Young Sheldon’s Georgie and Mandy Spinoff Gets a Surprising Title — Will New Show Undo Big Bang Lore?
The highly anticipated Young Sheldon spinoff may already be rewriting history with its newly revealed title.
Following a series order in March, CBS has confirmed with the release of its Fall 2024 schedule that its multi-camera offshoot centered on Georgie and Mandy will be called… Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage. It will pick up where Young Sheldon leaves off and air Thursdays at 8/7c (premiere date TBA).
The title is a play on previously established Big Bang Theory lore: In the hit sitcom’s 2019 series finale, Nobel Prize winner Sheldon said he received congratulatory texts from Georgie’s ex-wife… and Georgie’s other ex-wife.

During a recent interview with TVLine, Georgie & Mandy stars Montana Jordan and Emily Osment expressed hope that the spinoff would find a way to undo (or at the very least tinker with) Georgie’s marital history.
“I’m hoping that I’m the ex-wife and the new wife,” Osment said at the time. “People get divorced and remarried. Why can’t she be both?”
Judging by the title, it sounds like that’s precisely what producers have in mind. Watch a teaser below:
Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage — which is being penned by Young Sheldon co-creators Chuck Lorre and Steven Molaro, and fellow TBBT veteran (and Young Sheldon co-showrunner) Steve Holland — will follow Jordan and Osment‘s fan-favorite characters “as they raise their young family in Texas while navigating the challenges of adulthood, parenting and marriage,” according to the official logline.
No further casting has been revealed as of press time.
