What to Expect From ‘Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage’
With the end ofYoung Sheldonand the arrival ofGeorgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, there are a number of changes to be expected going forward. Filming on the series isbilled to commence in the summerand production will feature a multi-camera sitcom shot in front of a studio audience as opposed toYoung Sheldon’s single camera style. Osment describes it as “just a completely different experience, just a completely different form of comedy.” The coming series will also feature an evolution for Osment’s Mandy. While the series focus on how the pair navigate their marital union, Osment had previously revealed thatMandy will not be content with being a stay-at-home mom. “It’s hinted in the marriage episode that [Mandy] wants to go back to school, thatshe maybe wants to have a career, that she doesn’t want to just be a stay-at-home mom, which is how I feel,” Osment had revealed previously. “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."
Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriagewill premiere on CBS this fall. TheYoung Sheldonseries finale airs May 16, with past seasons streaming on Paramount+ in the U.S. Check out the trailer below:
