Funeral

Whoever did not cry watching this episode would be a robot. Overall a great great season especially this episode has made me to love the directors of this episode. Its really intense and how they made it so sentimental. Another shout out to the writers of this episode as it was a pure masterpiece and how they played with your emotions throughout the episode. Don't even make me start on the acting especially by Sheldon and Missy. They were right on the money throughout the episode and did not for a second go out of character. Indeed, the greatest episode of this season and all other sitcoms of all time!

Seldom do I write reviews for TV shows, but this episode killed me. Stab to the heart. Hit way too close to home. I lost my mother on February 5, 2023. She was 37 years old, I was sixteen. There's nothing in this world I wouldn't give to have her back. She was one of the kindest people the world has ever seen.

I knew this episode was coming for years and I didn't think it would be that emotional, after all Young Sheldon is a comedy, but one couldn't be more wrong. Funeral's depiction of grief covers every base out there. Not a single personal emotion, and it spans everyone in the series. Personally I was like Sheldon Cooper when I lost my mom. I constantly thought back on the last time I saw her similarly unexpected passing. I always think about how different would it be if I just talked to her a little more. Gave her one more hug, fought a little less. Even knowing that the past can never change, it's equally worth thinking about. My Dad reminded me of Missy, not exclusively because of the anger, but because of the emotions. Missy shows it the most, and so did my Dad. Missy's character throughout being so naive and sheltered at times really tore me up, especially when she asks "Why are they laughing?" at the funeral.

We never did a ceremony for my Mom, we invited everyone to view her body and say goodbye, but we were too broken and too rushed to plan a ceremony. At my Mom's funeral I saw people I hadn't seen in YEARS come in to pay their respects. That's how this episode feels too. We get to see characters who have been gone for SEASONS revisit and give their final goodbye. Mr. Givens? Brenda Sparks? Welcome back!

Seeing people care is what made it for me. It's been easy for me to forget how so many other people cared about me during the grieving process. I broke down in front of so many people who merely wished to check on me during the following weeks. Seeing Dr. Sturgis and Wayne come in and say the exact verbatim phrase "if you ever need anything, I'm here" all throws me back to those succeeding moments. I can't help but continue crying writing this because this episode felt like a one-to-one recreation of the situation I was in; The situation my entire family was in. There were an abundance of similarities between my situation and the Cooper's: younger parent, still a kid, unexpected, many visitors, southern charm. They made an episode about my life. How can it not be one of the greatest ever made?

Loss is so hard. Losing my mother at sixteen changed who I was as a person. This episode makes me feel so seen. Nothing in this I would've changed (except them making Wayne a joke). Beautiful episode, television peaked on May 16, 2024.

In my life i have watched a lot of TV shows and movies but i never felt like this before , even tough all the people we see in this Tv show are not real they make you fall in love with them like they are .

I have never actually cried on a Tv show or movie in all my life , but i really could not hold it in with these last episodes.

Honestly the ending of this series was done in a beautiful way and i will always remember it . Because in a lot of scenarios you can relate to it , and it can teach you what you should do in life... These last 3 episodes taught me that!

I will always miss this series because it truly was amazing , but im glad that at least we're getting the Georgie and Mandy spin off .

I jst wanted to wrap this series and move on. I watched many emotional scenes but only got to teary eyed. But this episode my tears won't stop rolling...maybe cuz of Sheldon, he made us laugh so much. But Why..Tears?

It's not even emotional when I saw all the characters comeback, and i almost hate my father, George also didn't care much for Sheldon, Ian Armitage is not a good actor grown up, Mary was only one who truly cared for George and then Missy and then George Jr. All their reactions didn't matter much for me. The alternative reality scene and how ppl grieve differently ...I was truly heart broken somewhere during this, needs lot of self introspection.

The hardest episode to watch in my history of watching TV series.

I had to pause this episode so many times to do something else. And returned watching again just to pause it again. I tried so hard not to be emotional, but I failed.

Pausing didn't help. I need to skip 10 seconds forward just so I finish watching it.

This is supposed to be a comedy. Why I'm not laughing? In The Big Bang Theory, when Howard's mother died, it was emotional, but still some scene are extremely funny as hell. In this episode of YS, every scene is so emotional.

Was it because the series has ended? And I'm going to miss this series.
