The series finale of "Young Sheldon," the CBS hit spinoff of the "Big Bang Theory," is almost here and while it'll no doubt be a sad goodbye, seven seasons is an impressive feat in the age of frequent cancellations.

Tragedy has struck the Coopers, but it's something the audience has known was coming.

On the May 11 episode, Sheldon's (Iain Armitage) father, George Sr. (Lance Barber), died of a heart attack after receiving a big promotion.

With Sheldon prepping for college, it's yet to be seen how he and the rest of the Coopers handle the news.

Thankfully, there are a slew of ways to watch the big sendoff both live and on streaming. If you've still held onto your cable subscription with a death grip, you're all set. Just tune in to CBS at 7 p.m. Arizona time on Thursday, May 16.

And, if you've been living under a rock — or just waiting to binge it all at once — the first six seasons of "Young Sheldon" are available on streaming services as well.
