CBS had issued a three-season renewal for Young Sheldon in 2021 for the fifth, sixth and seventh seasons, although it revealed in November β just days after the SAG-AFTRA strike ended β that season 7 would be the last.
βIt was an amazing experience to be able to tell the origins of Sheldon Cooper and expand the story to include the entire Cooper family,β said executive producers Steve Holland, Steven Molaro and Chuck Lorre.
βWe are grateful to our fans for embracing this chapter of the Coopers over the past six seasons, and on behalf of the entire Young Sheldon family, we are excited to share this final season with you,β she added.
The series was a prequel to another CBS hit, The Big Bang Theory, which ran for twelve seasons from 2007 to 2019.

The as-yet-untitled series will focus on the lives of characters Georgie Cooper and Mandy McAllister.
