Emily Osment Prepares to Tackle ‘Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage’ in New Set Images
When CBS’ 2024-2025 television schedule rolls around, among the plethora of top titles the network has to offer will be the Young Sheldon spinoff series, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage. Young Sheldon might have ended and a teenage Sheldon Cooper might have departed Texas for the thrills of CalTech, but the Coopers’ story in East Texas remains very much alive and well. The upcoming expansion series will see the story shift focus to the union between Georgie (Montana Jordan) and Mandy (Emily Osment) as they navigate their lives as a pair of newly-weds raising a young daughter.
A premiere date for the series has not been announced, however, with production taking off this month, we have our first look at one of the show’s main characters. Taking to her official Instagram account, series star, Osment, shares images of herself as Mandy on the set of Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage. Of the two images shared, the first is a mirror selfie showcasing Mandy’s wardrobe for the new series, and the second, an image of her dressing room. Osment had previously teased that Mandy would undergo an evolution of sorts in the upcoming series, citing that “she doesn’t want to just be a stay-at-home mom, which is how I feel,” she explains. Adding, “I think that’s such a tremendous thing for mothers to also be working, and I can’t wait to see what they do with that.” Mandy’s wardrobe choice in the new image points towards that, a more liberal appearance in a conservative environment.
For Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, there remains some ambiguity regarding whom might return for the series. The show points towards shifting the focus from the Coopers to Mandy’s parents, the McAllisters. Jim (Will Sasso) and Audrey McAllister (Rachel Bay Jones) have been confirmed to return to the expansion series. Given that Georgie and Mandy now live with the McAllisters as established in the final season of Young Sheldon, and with George Snr. (Lance Barber) gone, the home of the McAlisters seems a good place to set up. Other headliners of Young Sheldon might make appearances as the show progresses.
An Entirely New Experience for Georgie and Mandy
When Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage does eventually premiere, it is important for fans to note that the series will be a lot different from Young Sheldon. Besides Mandy’s character development and the move to the McAlisters, the new series will employ a multi-cam format. Which means that the series will be filmed in front of a live audience, featuring canned laughter. A throwback to the setup for the mothership series, The Big Bang Theory. There are conversations also regarding bringing back original series star, Jerry O’Connell, in some capacity with Osment recently saying, “Maybe he’ll be the narrator. I actually have not read anything yet but we’re starting fairly soon and we’re still in the process of pre-production.”
Georgie & Mandy‘s first marriage will premiere this fall on CBS. Watch Young Sheldon on Paramount+.
