UPDATED with Annie Potts reaction: Young Sheldon star Iain Armitage is promising “the best seventh season we can possibly make,” after hearing the news that the upcoming Season 7 will be the last for the hit Big Bang Theory spinoff.

“In case you wondered, I love my family,” he said, alongside an on-set photo with TV siblings Raegan Revord and Montana Jordan. “There’s about 200 more people who make Young Sheldon happen and I’m grateful for each of them.

“We will make the best seventh season we can possibly make,” wrote Armitage. “And behind the scenes there will be lots of laughter and lots of tears because I love all of these people so much.”

Revord, who plays Sheldon’s twin sister Missy, commented on Armitage’s post: “Can’t stop crying,” she wrote. “My family forever!”

Annie Potts, who portrays Connie ‘Meemaw’ Tucker, also shared her thoughts in an Instagram post.

“After seven fabulous, hilarious, fulfilling years, “Young Sheldon” will say goodby,” Potts wrote. “It’s a bittersweet moment. I have loved every moment of this work and loved every person who has made this wonderful show possible. I have been awed by the talent of my fellow cast members who feel more like family than colleagues. I am beyond grateful to all the “Young Sheldon” viewers and fans who made us #1. So, while I’ll miss the day-to-day business of making “Young Sheldon,” I celebrate seven wonderful years of laughter and love. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of it.”

As we reported yesterday, the series will conclude with the upcoming 14-episode seventh season. Young Sheldon will air a one-hour series finale on Thursday, May 16, at 8 PM.

From creators, executive producers and writers Chuck Lorre and Steven Molaro, Young Sheldon centers on Sheldon Cooper (Armitage), a once-in-a-generation mind capable of advanced mathematics and science, which isn’t always helpful in a land where church and football are king. And while the vulnerable, gifted and somewhat naïve Sheldon deals with the world, his very normal family must find a way to deal with him.

The series also stars Zoe Perry, Lance Barber, Annie Potts and Parsons (as the voice of Sheldon). Lorre, Molaro, Holland, Nick Bakay, Parsons and Todd Spiewak serve as executive producers. Young Sheldon is produced by Chuck Lorre Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Season 7 will premiere Feb. 15 on CBS.

China calls on scientists of all nations to study lunar samples, but notes obstacle with the US
China's space officials said Thursday they welcomed scientists from around the world to apply to study the lunar rock samples that the Chang'e 6 probe brought back to Earth in a historic mission, but noted there were limits to that cooperation, specifically with the United States. Officials said at a televised news conference in Beijing meant to introduce the mission's achievements that any cooperation with the U.S. would be hinged on removing an American law that bans direct bilateral cooperation with NASA. "The source of the obstacle in US-China aerospace cooperation is still in the Wolf Amendment,” said Bian Zhigang, vice chair of the China National Space Administration.
