After appearing on and off since her debut in Season 2 Episode 6, Veronica was promptly fizzled out of Young Sheldon – withReddit usersnow weighing in on why.

Veronica joins the show as a resident ‘bad girl’ and one of the students Sheldon tutors, before asking Mary for her to be saved by Jesus. In later episodes, she goes on to be a short-lived love interest for Georgie.

“Does anyone remember Veronica?” one Reddit userasked. “The last time we saw her was when she looked at Georgie’s candy necklace and I really shipped them 🙁 . Mandy and Georgie is cute but I really liked Veronica and she kind of showed Georgie’s soft side.”

“In situations like these, I always wonder if it’s a simple matter of the actress being unavailable. It’s possible that Mandy was invented for a storyline originally meant for Veronica,” another usermused. “Once Georgie and Sheldon were no longer in high school (and Missy wasn’t there yet), there was no longer a need for side characters from the high school (except for those who interact with George),” a thirdagreed.

The same can be said ofneighbor Brenda’s daughter Bobbi, who quickly disappeared after initially being brought in to bully Sheldon.

“There aren’t a whole lot of Tam appearances as well if I remember correctly. Quite a few of those side characters fizzled out,” a fourth userweighed in.

“She got a lead role in a show called 1883 and then carried on as narrator for 1923. She chose the lead role over the recurring role,” another userpointed out.
