Who’s here after George Sr’s death?.
Here
Here🥺
💔😔
Me 😢
Here.
What’s touching to me is that the writers wrote this death in the show because the actual, beloved actress who played Wolowitz’s mom died in real life. Very real emotions throughout this entire episode and beautifully acted by all.
It’s a very big honor to kill off a character because the actor/actress passes away
It reminds me a bit of when the actor who played Mr. Hooper on Sesame Street passed away. They wrote his death into the show, focusing specifically on Big Bird's reaction, and IIRC they aired the episode on a holiday when many parents would have been home to watch with their children. As in this episode, you could see the genuine raw emotions of the cast members.
@@connorsobieralski6765how?
@@connorsobieralski6765ik it’s necessary because I mean what are they gonna do with the character? They can’t recast because it wouldn’t stay true to the original, but why is it an honor?
….
Sheldon saying that he didn’t have anyone to help him get through his father’s death hits differently now that we’ve crossed that bridge in Young Sheldon.
Watched the episode last night and it came out nowhere. 😢
@@stevedooley6061 sad thing is it didn’t come out of nowhere exactly. We knew it was going to happen, we knew how it was going to happen, and we knew it was probably going to come up during the end of the series. It still didn’t make it easier though.
Sheldon being in utter shock, and DROPPING into the seat shows how much pain he was in. And Sheldon was the most comforting one in the group during this scene, because he experienced this in a much more harsh way than Howard did.
@@jonathanmendelsohn6788when my dad was 16yrs old his dad had a heart attack in the passenger seat of the car. My dad was driving, pulled over, called 911 and performed CPR. Sadly, his dad never made it.
I think i agree with him. He did in a way go through it alone. He isolated himself, sure. But not by his own choice. He was stuck in his head thinking about how he should've handled it differently and nobody quite understood how he felt. Missy had Georgie, Mary had God(and georgie), and Meemaw had alcohol(but also her boyfriend Dale). People think of him as emotionless, but truthfully his emotions were inside and expressed differently, but still valid. Quite sad to think about. Howard has people around him who do know how he feels at least.
I always love how Sheldon immediately turns around after hearing that cause even though he always gives Howard hell about being an engineer he truly cares about him.
I'll also be honest. I kind of see Sheldon and Howard as brothers
I love that tooo
Just like when they were holding hands on the plane, Sheldon told Howard without him, his life would have a hole in it.
@@matiaspereira9382Yeah brothers fight but they still care for each other
@@night2fransic yeah
I was proud of Sheldon showing true love to Howard in this sad time, Sheldon is human after all 😇
That's exactly the thing an android would say to throw us off Sheldon's scent.
Good Lord, Sheldon is not a human - he's a fictionally created character.
STAY IN REALITY!
@@petesevern7638you must be fun at parties
@@petesevern7638 He's a cyborg leave him alone.
@@GrandInfernoElite, and your point is?
" When I lost my own father I didn't have any friends to help me through it. You do". None of us expected Sheldon to say kind words to Howard. Sheldon proves to us time and time again that he still cares about his friends.
He is still human after all. This scene made me cry because I lost someone very close to me 2 years ago due to a stroke and I still miss them. 😭😭
@@JuanEnriqueFloresJr Me too. Just like Sheldon I'd lost my father and I still miss him 😭
@@Nigama_2003 That is very sad to hear. My own father lost his father when he was still 10 years old. I hope that you're doing okay because I have lost many people close to me and trust me, it is very hard to get over their deaths.
Did Sheldon Not Already Meet Leonard By Then-
@@Icescream7 No
You have to believe Howard, given his history with Sheldon, was expecting something really insensitive or hurtful to be said when Sheldon asked to say something.
To me, it was almost like Howard was letting Sheldon say it because a part of him wants the excuse to be angry at someone and put this hurt on them.
But then Sheldon says something very heartfelt and it actually helps, in some small way.
Damn I felt the same. During college my brother was shot and I was expecting this guy who always gives me crap to say something horrible but he simply said “I know what’s it’s like and I’m sorry you have to go through it too”
I felt it was him expecting insensitivity and just going with it, thinking Sheldon couldn’t possibly know how to handle it. Only to shocked by Sheldon’s heart.
I agree. It was sort of like, I know your going to say something mean and/or "dumb", so let's just get it over with.
@@Emanuel-oo6mc Oh I feel truly said for you. Is your brother okay now?
And he kinda smiled cuz he knew how rare it was
Once you watch the whole episode, you'll really understand how sad this episode is. Howard was so angry because his mom gave the furniture to the Comic Book Store. And then all of a sudden, this happened.
and suddenly we all realize how small everyday problems are compared to what we lose in the big picture
I never got to say ''I'm sorry'' to my father after we argued and I trully hope he forgives me
The thing is Howard always hated his mom anyways he probably felt sorry for her as well as the actresses real death too 😢
@@hsd287Howard didn't hate his mother. On the contrary, him and his mother had an extreme codependent relationship, and sometimes anger towards a person in the codependent relationship is common. This show had a running subtle joke that all of Leonard's male friends had a severe mental disorder that nobody acknowledged except for Raj's because it was so obvious. However it's pretty obvious that Sheldon is Autistic even though the show creators claim he isn't. Raj had extreme social anxiety towards women. Howard was extremely codependent with his mother to the point of being rendered childlike in certain ways, as are most adults who have always lived at home with their parents. Leonard was the only "normal" one in the group and therefore the reason why Penny chose to be in a relationship with him. You should see how a person in real life reacts when the object of their codependent relationship dies, it is not pretty.
Howard was childish to fight with Stuart about the furnitures. Just revisit this scene, it just came to me that Howard's mother might help Stuart to open this store and gift her furniture to him, because she knew Howard spent a lot of time here, and she wants this store to feel like home to Howard, too.
@chester0608ye you know I've never rethought about that. If they actually meant that to come off that deep that's pretty damned beautiful.
Now I understand sheldon now, sitting in the chair alone while her mom, missy and memaw embracing embraces each other.
yep
Sheldon was so nice to say that he has friends to help him
Sheldon was the only other one in the group who had experienced that same pain. He knew what Howard needed most at that moment since he didn't have it when his father died.
I felt for Howard here. Saddest and most heartwarming scene. Last line killed the moment though. "Audience" made it worse
Then there’s the ones that say “it’s a comedy it’s not meant to be serious” fuck off it’s amazing wen a comedy has a sad moment and bro his fucking mum has died why tf would that be funny init
They had to lighten the mood, this is a sitcom.
why they add laughing track in this scene bruh
@@xpellidagoatAgreed, that's wrong 👎👎
@@NH-tb2sm "This is a sitcom".
So what. Imagine if at the end of the episode of the prince of bel air where Will's dad leave him again they made a joke.
Who's here after George died?
My heart was ripped out after the scene the family finds out about George. I thought Sheldon would talk about as he spoke of future events that had yet to happen so I was unprepared.
Right here man, I knew it was coming but still powerful episode.
Penny's joke at the end ruined it. It should've been a sad ending to the episode, and the credits roll in silence.
It's a common ploy on sitcoms: end a traumatic scene with a punchline to cut through the tension. I think it's a trend that needs to go away.
@@kd9lac803 I have seen plenty of sitcom scenes with a sad end and it absolutely does not detract from the episode at all.
One reason why I think Young Sheldon is so much better is that it isn’t afraid to be serious.
To be fair,Without the luaghtrack it could be interpreted as not a joke
@@mhmdibra-sq8dp and that's the purpose of laugh tracks.
@@boitmecklyn4995 it's dumb to tell the audience when to laugh
"When I lost my own father I didn't have any friends to help me through it. You do"
These words are so deep after watching that episode on Young Sheldon S07E12
The script writers wrote a beautiful line of dialogue, but Parsons delivered it PERFECTLY!
Season 7 having only 12 epiaodes irked me for some reason; were the writers out of ideas or plotlines so they decided to cut the season in half ?! Most of the previous seasons had at least 18 or 20 epiaodes but not the last season for some reason.
But that was a lie. Dr. Sturgis tried to reach out to him and Sheldon just blew him off.
@@DmitriyK12❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😢😢😢😢😢🧔👧💋💋💋💋💋
It takes a lot to make me cry with tv shows and movies and when Wayne said George had a heart attack then missy asked is he ok I was tearing up.
This clip was already emotional for me, but having lost my father, and having to remember when I was told he died, it hits even harder now 😔
I feel u on that😢 my dad Anniversary of passing Was on the ninth Of this month The scene definitely hits a lot harder when you experience it yourself.
I remember getting the call about my Mother passing, I literally dropped like a stone into a seat and my friends right away KNEW something was not right and instantly began to comfort me.
Your Father is closer than you think
I remember when I had to put my dog down last year; that was one of the hardest things I ever had to do. Also, I remember the day I lost my grandma; god rest her soul
I'm so sorry for your loss
Who’s here after young Sheldon?😢😢
I knew it will happen, but I still can't believe it... 😢
well season 7 isn't in the uk so I'm both here and not here after YS
Still to this day I really could do without Penny's joke and the forced audience laugh noise at the end. Wish the scene ends after the Sheldon part and Howard reaction.
Diddo.
yeh i really dont like that at all... i understand its to try and lift the spirits a little but to me it ruins the mood, especially when its about the death of the actual actress too.
The parallel between Both Howard and Sheldon sitting down after the news of their parent's death hit even more with Sheldon's dialogue of how he didn't have anyone to help him through his dad's death because while Sheldon was sitting alone, Howard is surrounded by his friends
Penny why did you have to ruin that scene with that line?
The fact that even Sheldon was comforting just shows he cares about his friends. And then Penny ruins the moment, and the "audience" ruined it even more
Penny didn't ruin anything. The writers and producers did.
Can't really blame Penny for saying what she said, given Sheldon's history of not "reading the room" at certain times...
Yep, what's wrong with writters?
@@Rockhound6165then Sheldon wasn't conforting. It was the writters
@@ToaPholuxTarchex_Sealtori you never got past the 3rd grade did you.
Sheldon can be a massive pain in the ass most of the time, but deep in the snow, there is a warm heart beating. This is one of the moments that proves it.
How he suddenly turns around like that, it’s like it shut down his entire logical brain section
He’s always making sure to get all the attention when ever it’s not on him hate him
It’s nice to see the human side of Sheldon here.
Yes, was very touching
He’s a robot very disturbing
He has it he doesn’t show it all the time
God it pisses me off to no end how tbey tried writing a real heartfelt moment only to add in a horrible ass joke after
I feel sorry for Howard 😢
His mother was a great mother in the whole wide world ❤️🌍
R.I.P Howard's mom
R.I.P. Carol Ann Susi
I thought you were going to say "in all senses of the word" lol
@@Thanos_Freakshow795I still remember when the show did a tribute to her at the end of another episode. then this episode aired and the minute Howard mentioned his mom was in Florida, I was like, "oh no, is this when they're going to kill off her character?" And sure enough 😢
Cant believe the actress also dies 😢
Such a great scene but Penny’s line right at the end really kinda ruined this scene a little bit
I disagree, when you look at Pennys and Leonards face they really thought Sheldon was gonna say something disrespectful, shows the character development of Sheldon
Well its modern sitcom. Its not 80s Growing pains for example where you can have long serious moments with no laughs
The show in general has very derivative, garbage writing unfortunately
The show in general has very derivative, garbage writing unfortunately
00:50 Not for nothing, the most inteligent, wise and human that Sheldon have ever said.
Sheldon’s line was so sweet and heartfelt which really added to the emotion of this scene. Too bad they had to ruin it with a joke. The scene should have ended after Sheldon’s line.
The parallel!! I have to expect they did it on purpose. Howard slowly sits and it's a wideshot of everyone around him. Sheldon slowly sits and it's a wideshot of him sitting alone while you hear Missy, Meemaw and Mary crying
I love how Howard allowed Sheldon to talk, even tho it was possible he'd say something offensive or insensitive. He still gave him the benefit of the doubt.
who is here after George died in Young sheldon?
I'm here.
This moment became much heavier now that I've watched George Sr's death.
Now that young sheldon season 7 aired, and Sheldon's reaction on his father's death is sitting on a couch like what Howard do, alone, it makes what he said here to Howard a lot more meaningful
Howard's grief felt so realistic. He wasn't overcome with a lot of anger or sadness, just completely shocked and at a loss for words
That’s because this was a tribute to the actress who voiced his mother, Carol Ann Sussi. She had died and the cast really was in mourning. If you look at the refrigerator in Sheldon’s and Leonard’s apartment after this, you’ll see a small picture of her there. All the emotions you see in this scene are genuine.
When I lost my mother I felt the same. My dad called to break the new but I was more concerned for him. Once the call ended though I was a complete wreck. The initial news is just us hearing it. It takes moments afterwards for it to really set in.
Yeah, I liked that, because that's how it is. When my father died, I was in shock too, even though he was sick and it was a long time coming. You need time to process the loss.
Who is here after watching George Sr's death?
I'm here.
The irony of this part. Howard always made fun of his mother that he will celebrate the day when he will get the news that his mom is no more. But in reality, he missed her more than anything
I cry every time I see this scene. I'm glad Sheldon said that about Howard having friends.
The clip with Sheldon's dad just came up in my algorithm. I needed this.
This came up after the knock knock scene. RUclips is hurting me more
i hadn’t realized during the first time i saw it the significance why howard sat down on the very furniture his mother left stuart. for some reason, it was like she knew that her son loved that place so much and gave him comfort ever since he was a little boy, and even now. she treasured howard as well as stuart and leaving that set was like her, comforting them that she’ll always provide a home and a safe place for the both of them.
Watching this after the _Young Sheldon_ episode where George dies hits very different. Sheldon’s words hold a very different meaning because we understand where he’s coming from and what we know what’s coming from the finale. George would’ve been so proud of Sheldon for who he became.
In this moment Sheldon was really the only person in the room who could understand Howard’s pain. Considering their history, you would never expect Sheldon to be sympathetic.
I hate it when Penny says her line. They should had ended this act on a serious note. No need for a laugh at this point.
FR. I think this scene created because Carol Ann Susie is actually passed away so they killed her character. Why putting unnecessary joke to fill this tribute
I disagree, on the day when my grandma passed away and after the shock and tears have worn off my family gathered around the table to talk about the funny things she did in her life and the bad things that happen to her basically her life's story. The funny things helped relief the pain knowing that she is no longer with us.
And no one laughed when Sheldon watched the video of his father
@@kutukan2219because by this point the writers were absolutely useless. The show went to shit. It was genuinely good first 6 or so seasons and went downhill fast.
Yes, considering the episode was written because the actress portraying Howard's mom actually died.
I really wish they left it as a heart felt moment. Why the tried to have penny end the scene with comedy is beyond stupid.
Awwwwwwwww I feel bad for Howard because that was the saddest and the most heartwarming 🥺😭💖🥰Luckily Sheldon came along because he is the BEST and the COOLEST friend to Howard
“When I lost my father didn’t have any friends to help me through it but you do” - Sheldon cooper
The laugh track really ruins the moment. That's something I hate about the show is the fact that when they have a deep emotional moment they have to undercut it with a stupid joke or a laugh track over a jokes that's nit funny
One of the rare times Sheldon understood emotions better than others around him. Sheldon knew what Howie was going through, and it’s touching how he wanted to make sure Howie knew they were all there for him. This scene hits more after watching how Sheldon himself handled the news of his dad dying.
I was proud of Sheldon saying that to him that was a breakthrough for him ❤
Just when you think Sheldon is going to be a jerk, he opens his heart and shows he's not only a human being, but a good friend.
Beautiful moment ruined by the producers stupid decision to add in pennys last innapropriate comment in a pathetic attempt to somehow make this scene funny..
Writing on the show is generally garbage overall. It reminds me of Suits where every character has derivative sentence constructs that mirror the next. Very weak. Very garbage
This hits hard after the last episode that just happened in Young Sheldon😭
Come here after the last episode of Young Sheldon 🥲🥲
I'm here after George senior's death. and Penny ruined this moment :(
I blame the Sitcom formula
Exactly
The scene really didn’t need Penny’s last line it didn’t work and it took away from a very powerful scene
this is a sitcom not indian drama
@@abdurrahim7539 maybe so, but sometimes less is more
@@TheMightyThor83no
@@TheMightyThor83It made more sense in the full episode! Penny & Sheldon had been going on about something & Sheldon told her to "let it go" & Penny thought he was going to use that line again. As the saying goes "you had to be there".
@@abdurrahim7539sitcoms have plenty of dramatic scenes, genius. And this scene had more to do with the death of Carol Ann Susi, the woman who voiced Howard's mom, than anything else. Maybe if you weren't a complete dunderhead you'd know this.
Who here is watching this after Sea 7 ep 12, of Young Sheldon?
Ironically, that is how Sheldon reacted. He took a seat and was in much worse shock than Howard. And Sheldon is right. He had to bottle that in for years. Sheldon is still a mess over this. Sheldon needs a good cry and a therapist to help him deal with George Sr's 1994 death.
A such sad moment to all of them.... 😢
And yes Sheldon was right. Saw today that episode where his father passed away. His sister wants him long gone to CA for good. His mom wants to take the traditional picture with their family on Blue Bonnet but unfortunately her husband had already gone very long....
I lost my mother recently (early June). It was unexpected and heart wrenching. I felt like my body weighted down and my chest had a crushing itself. I was in tears bawling like a baby in the hospital when they told me she passed away (i'm 30). for the first week I barely ate or slept, luckly my grandmother and my two brother was around to help me in small ways (though it was hard for them too since they also lost a daughter and mother). I also had a big family who were giving me support as well as some of my mom's friends. My moms cousin who I treat like a uncle, told me to take my time to grief and know that though many people were in my situation know who can say "I know how you feel", since we all are very different.
It hit me really hard because she basically passed away in front of me on her bed. she went into Cardiac arrest, she looked at me one last time before she started slipping away. I tried doing CPR, but it seemed to late (I didn't know what I was doing). The police and EMT came about a few minutes later to help, but it was already too late. I feel it would take about a year (maybe more) to get over my grief.
Don't feel bad about the CPR. Despite what we see on TV, even in a hospital, CPR only has about a 20% success rate. Outside a hospital, about 5%.
Rest In Peace to your Mother 🙏🏼
Even though I don't know You personally, I'm sure she raised a good person ❤
Is anyone else here after the latest episode of Young Sheldon? The latest episode really changes how you feel about this scene. :(
RIP to George Cooper and Debbie Malvina Wolowitz
I like how Sheldon says "I think it may be comforting." He genuinely doesn't know if what he's about to say will help, but he's trying, and he thinks it will, so he really wants to try and comfort Howard in his own way.
What Sheldon says is meaningful
This reminds me of that one scene from Young Sheldon, when Sheldon was alone, listening to the radio, and they chose clips of all of his future friends
And go figure, Penny was the one to ruin the moment.
with a rachel impersonation
Yeah, you're right, but that statement at the end was actually something sheldon would say (and probably did say in earlier episodes).
@@lizziekilburn2302If anything it's the people who put a laugh at the part during a serious moment
Coming here after Young Sheldon hits different 😭 Still remains a really powerful scene and one of my favourite Sheldon moments
i think penny joke ruined it a little
Agree
Yeah but then again we thought Sheldon was gonna say let it go as well.
Nah I don’t think so
i dont understand the joke maybe because english isn't my first language, why would Sheldon say let it go?@@hadensasser4937
Howard gave him a chance to speak even though they hate each other 🥺🥺❤
I know how Howard feels
I lost my grandma back in April this year and back in 2020, I lost my dad (some days I still think of them and I miss them so much)
I'm so sorry 4 your loss 😥😢
listen. even though they won't be with you anymore in life, they'll always be with you in spirit.
I totally understand. When I post this, it's the 15 years since I lost my Nan. She raised me like a mom which is how I see he, have even said that to the women who gave birth to me.
The more important they are to you is what makes the loss harder and harder.
I lost my Grandfather on the first of August 2016. I miss him so much. 😢
the laugh track completely fucking ruins this scene. young sheldon is better because there isnt forced laughter every 5 seconds
I KNEW Sheldon would come through. 😓❤️
Watching this clip after young Sheldon series finale ..now I understand the true meaning of those words..!!!
Who's here after watching George's death in Young Sheldon?
Meeee... George's death hits so bad I cried.
And Today I saw him losing his father, man that broke me to the core😭
Penny thought Sheldon was going to say let it go, but Sheldon knows what it's like to lose a parent because he lost his dad. Sheldon comforting Howard is the best thing he has done.
After the lost of Sheldons dad in young sheldon he knows what Howards going through and actually gives him some respect for the first time in the series.... rip the actress that played Mrs Wollowitz
The joke and laugh track in the end was so unnecessary and ruined this beautiful scene.
rewatching this scene after Young Sheldon finale gives this so many new and deeper levels that it actually made me tear up.
What makes this even worse is that the actress who was Howard’s mom, actually died.
Wow Sheldon not being an asshole !
wow i think that's the first time sheldon said comforting genuine words instead of sarcasm
As much as I love this show, they should have faded to black after Sheldon's line. It was the perfect note to end the scene on.
Did u really had to do that last one joke?
Penny just ruined it, and the laugh track in this tragic moment is just insensitive
Penny joke was so unnecessary it ruined the scene
5 years ago, when my mom passed, I was lost and scared of the phrase but my online friends showed me. They were true friends because when I needed them when I was alone when I was afraid when I was scared. They were there for me. And they showed me their true colors. And for that, I am grateful for them and that I am honored by them and that I am empowered by them. I love them more than I have loved anything and I don't care what people think about our friendship. They show me who they were.
In this world which doesn't care we emotionals care
After watching Young Sheldon, you might have seen, that Sheldon and Howard had the same reaction after they heard about the news. They both sat down and couldn't believe it. For me that was the reason Sheldon comforted Howard properly, because he got this callback from his past and knew how he had to respond to this situation.
Sheldon Remembers His Dad / George Dies with Heart Attack!!!! 😭😭😭 from Young Sheldon Season 7 0:50
Raj's "what can we do?" is truly heartwarming ♥
0:50 Jim parsons’ real life dad also died
That's awful 😞
Sheldon saying that his friends didn't help him is exactly true not one of my friends came to my side when my best friend of 25 years died of cancer i was a emotional l wreck for 7 days i hit rock bottom he died on the 4th of July 2023 i still cry to this day every time i think of him R.I.P David my care bear xxx
I saw this episode and the following episodes for the first time just days after losing my Mom. I love you Big Bang Theory, thank you for making me feel less alone during the hardest point of my life.
I’m so sorry for your loss ❤. I lost my mom less than a year after the show ended, we would watch every week and I’m so grateful that I got to experience watching it all the way through with her.
I'm proud of Sheldon, he showed real maturity in this scene.
I tend to skip Penny's line. I know it's to break the tension, but it kills an emotional moment. Like just fade to black and let the commercials calm those who are sad.
Revisiting this episode after Young Sheldon latest episode make Sheldon’s statement even more meaningful, especially knowing how Sheldon’s father is such a great father to him growing up. As well seeing Sheldon’s lonely grief at that time. Howard is truly lucky to have friends to be there for him.
That penny joke ruined this scene
right then they say sheldon is the worst.
0:50 the fact we actually get to see this makes me feel for Sheldon even more.
I know this came about cause of real life, but this was some of the best writing and acting the show ever had. This arc was so good.
And props to Sheldon for a great moment and friendship
The only flaw was what Penny said in the end
Howard's Mom was Mom to the whole group
Agreed. Even for a recurring character, she really was the glue that held them together. I felt the show kinda peaked after she passed.
It is touching, since she was always such a comically mocked character, yet her loss hits him as any Jewish guy would feel in this situation.
Up until that point Sheldon was the only one with a dead parent, now they are 2, so he can understand the best how Howard would feel, especially since he knows Howard only had his mom since his father, while not deceased, hasn't been in his life since he was a kid. That was really sweet of him to cheer up Howard, pointing out that even if he lost his mom, he's not alone either, he still has his friends who loves him around to get him through that. It makes me tears up.
