Jim Parsons And Mayim Bialik Make Grand Return In ‘Young Sheldon’s’ Finale Episode

The creators of ‘Young Sheldon’ are really invested in saying a proper goodbye to the series by bringing back two of our favorite characters from the original ‘The Big Bang Theory.’

Jim Parsons played the eccentric genius Sheldon Cooper – the character around whom the whole series revolves – and Mayim Bialik played Dr. Amy Farrah Fowler, an equally brilliant scientist who also happens to be Sheldon Cooper’s love interest. Together, they’re making sure ‘Young Sheldon’ ends on the highest note possible.

On May 16, CBS will air the final episode of ‘Young Sheldon,’ but before that, they’ve taken the time to get fans all excited for the upcoming episode by sharing a glimpse of Sheldon and Amy’s life probably years since we last saw them in ‘The Big Bang Theory.’

Parsons already serves as an executive producer and narrator for the spinoff series, while Bialik provided voiceovers for two episodes of the show, including the season 4 episode “Graduation,” which sees Amy telling Sheldon to show some gratitude that she let him name their son Leonard Cooper (Sheldon, of course, would have been infinitely more grateful if she had let the name be Leonard Nimoy Cooper.

That way it would be a proper tribute to the late actor Leonard Nimoy who played Spock in the Star Trek franchise.)

In the first look photos teasing their cameo appearances, we see Sheldon in his robe working on a laptop, as Amy – holding a mug – looks on at the laptop screen.

In another picture, Amy’s look becomes more quizzical as she keeps watching Sheldon work. In the third and final image, Sheldon is wearing a satisfied look with the laptop closed in front of him.

Behind them are awards and certificates they’ve apparently accumulated over the years, you know, by being two of the most brilliant people on earth.

As the series nears its end, the lead star Iain Armitag, who plays young Sheldon in the prequel show, talked about saying goodbye to the series.

“It very much comes full circle, and I think we are trying to do our best to satisfy both fans of our show and [The Big Bang Theory], and it’s been so much fun to film,” Iain Armitage told PEOPLE last month. “We’re having a great time, and it’s definitely hard and definitely emotional ending it, but it’s such a fun ride either way.”
