One of many shows ending and canceled in 2024, Young Sheldon wrapped its seven-season run with a tearful series finale. The sitcom ended with a two-part event following the aftermath of the show’s long-awaited tragedy, George Sr.’s death. As if that wasn’t heartbreaking enough, Young Sheldon’s boss, Steve Holland, is revealing what the wrap party was like. He even specifically revealed how the cast and crew commemorated their coming-of-age comedy amid the festivities, and I’m getting emotional all over again.
After filming had wrapped on the Big Bang Theory prequel, the cast and crew got together to celebrate Young Sheldon with a fun-sounding shindig. Even though filming the finale brought some tears, it sounds like the party was full of celebration, according to the executive producer and co-showrunner. It was also filled with a lot of memories, and Holland told People about one special way they paid tribute to the series’ legacy, and it involves photos:
There’d been a lot of tearful farewells up to that point, so I think people were ready to have a good time. They had asked for people to send their photographs from over the years, and they had a big slideshow going on several screens throughout the thing of people’s personal pictures from behind the scenes and from on set.
It must’ve been surreal to have seen seven years worth of behind-the-scenes photos from various people who worked on the show. Each individual probably also has a unique perspective given the various capacities in which they worked. If the photos were anything like the adorable gut-punch that Iain Armitage posted from his first day on set, tears were very likely flowing the entire time. Steve Holland also shared with the news outlet:
