Raegan Revord’s Favourite Sheldon & Missy Second On Younger Sheldon

There are loads of enjoyable character dynamics on show all through “Younger Sheldon,” however I might argue probably the most charming is the connection between Missy (Raegan Revord) and Sheldon (Iain Armitage). They is likely to be fraternal twins, however Missy is dangerous at college and nice with individuals whereas Sheldon is, effectively, the other. But, although the 2 don’t have anything in widespread, they’re nonetheless there for one another each time it counts. Take as an example the second within the season 4 finale, “The Wild and Woolly World of Nonlinear Dynamics,” the place Missy desires to run away and Sheldon follows her. 

“I am sorry, however I am unable to allow you to wander at evening by your self. I am your huge brother,” Sheldon tells her. When Missy factors out that they are twins, Sheldon responds, “I used to be born two minutes earlier, which apparently makes me accountable for you … I am not completely happy about it both, however right here we’re.” This was a stand-out second for Raegan Revord, who named it in a 2024 interview as one in every of her favourite moments within the sequence: 

“If I needed to decide, it will in all probability be each time Missy and Sheldon go into that little shack within the woods as a result of Missy is working away. It was actually candy as a result of one in every of Sheldon’s strains is one thing like, ‘I am older by ten minutes, so I’ve to be careful for you,’ or one thing like that. I am like, ‘Oh, that is so candy.” It was a enjoyable scene to movie off-screen. It is a enjoyable scene to look at. I find it irresistible.”

This second is especially candy given how far aside Sheldon and Missy develop all through the sequence. As Sheldon climbs the training ladder whereas Missy goes by means of college at an everyday tempo, the good moments between them develop fewer and farther between. There’s an additional sense of melancholy right here for followers of the present’s mother or father sequence, “The Massive Bang Principle,” as a result of that present establishes that Sheldon leaves his household for Caltech at solely 14 years previous, and that he would not see Missy that usually from that time ahead. By season 4, not solely have Sheldon and Missy been rising aside, however we all know the issue’s solely going to worsen from right here. 

“I believe one factor that makes the Missy and Sheldon bonding scenes so candy is that they do not occur usually,” Revord defined in the identical interview. “And so everytime you do get a time when Missy goes by means of one thing, or Sheldon goes by means of one thing, and the opposite twin is there for them, it actually exhibits that although they argue, although they may not see eye-to-eye on a regular basis, they nonetheless do love one another.”

When Revord was requested about her character’s favourite relationship all through the sequence, she talked about Missy’s father, George Sr. (Lance Barber). Like together with her and Sheldon, there’s an undercurrent of looming tragedy behind Missy and George Sr.’s scenes, and “Younger Sheldon” has all the time made probably the most of it. As Revord defined:  

“The Missy and George bonding scenes are my favourite factor ever and my favourite to movie. George and Missy have the identical relationship as my dad and I, and Lance and I’ve the identical relationship as my dad and I, so it is all the time a lot enjoyable to movie. It is simply us being us. … Truthfully, any George and Missy scene or episode is my favourite.“
