Young Sheldon's cast expresses their emotions as they wrap up the show
For Zoe Perry and the rest of the cast, the end of Young Sheldon marks the end of an era filled with cherished memories. Perry candidly admitted, as retrieved via PEOPLE, “It's been very bittersweet. It's not an easy thing to know that something that's been so wonderful for us is coming to an end."
Despite the sadness, Perry emphasized the gratitude they all share for the opportunity to tell Sheldon's story and connect with the audience in such a profound way.
“But I think I can speak for everyone that we're all just really grateful that we've gotten to tell this story, tell it for as long as we have, get to experience the audience's reactions and how wonderful they've been. I think we're just so appreciative. Truly,” she added.
Montana Jordan echoed Perry's sentiments, describing the cast as a tight-knit family. Beyond their on-screen chemistry, the bond they share off-screen has made the journey even more special. Jordan revealed how Raegan Revord constantly texted him off-set “to do stuff.”
Jordan went ahead and shared that he enjoyed his time on the show, emphasizing that the entire cast has become a family in the true sense.
He shared, “But no, I enjoy it, man. I really enjoy it. I got two older sisters in real life, and on the show, I got a little brother and a little sister, so I got the best of both worlds. We've been a family ever since the first day we met — and we're still a family. Just because the show's ending doesn't mean we're not going to continue being a family. That's what kind of bond we got.”
