Lance Barber is set to reprise his role as George Sr. in an upcoming episode of "Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage," which the show's executive producers say is an "apology" for killing him off on "Young Sheldon.

"Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage" is not doing as well in the ratings as "Young Sheldon." What might be keeping viewers away?

The show’s creators made major edits to remove humor and emphasize the emotional weight of George Sr.'s passing.

Scroll down for a closer peek, and don’t miss Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage episode airing February 27th for George Sr.’s return. Ruben and Jim notice something is off with Georgie. It appears that he’s a little under the weather. Even Ruben looks like he feels bad for coworker Georgie. Connor feels for a fever on Georgie’s forehead.

Georgie & Mandy has had some obvious hints to Young Sheldon, but a subtle nod in Episode 8 has slid straight under the radar.

TV Insider was on the scene and, following the Q&A panel, chatted up executive producer Steve Holland about Barber’s return, who else from Young Sheldon might appear again and/or next on Georgie & Mandy, and why established lore from Big Bang doesn’t tie creative hands as much as one might think!

One burning question keeps coming up about "Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage": where is Sheldon? Well, he's apparently right where we left him.
