Montana Jordan, the East Texas native who rose to fame as Georgie Cooper on CBS' hit show "Young Sheldon," was seen at Circle M Crawfish in Big Sandy, Texas, delighting staff and patrons alike with a surprise visit over the weekend. In a post shared on their Facebook page, the local seafood hotspot gave Jordan a hearty welcome, saying, "We'd like to give a shoutout to Montana Jordan for stopping by Circle M Crawfish today," and expressed their thrill over his willingness to engage with fans and staff during his visit.

While it is not specifically reported what dish Jordan indulged in, the actor, known for his role in the popular "Young Sheldon," which details the quirky childhood of Sheldon Cooper from "The Big Bang Theory," was presumably in town to enjoy some traditional East Texas cuisine, and, as anyone might guess, it might just have been some of Circle M's celebrated crawfish. According to a statement obtained by KNUE, the restaurant expressed their delight: "It was so awesome of you to swing by and hang out with our team." Jordan is wrapping up his tenure on "Young Sheldon" with the upcoming series finale set to air on May 16, marking the end of a seven-season run for the beloved series.

The end of "Young Sheldon," however, is not the end of the line for Jordan, who is slated to continue his journey as Georgie Cooper in a new spin-off comedy. He will co-star along with Emily Osment, who plays Georgie's partner and the mother to his child, Mandy McAllister, as they navigate the challenges and charms of raising a family in Texas. The upcoming series, announced as part of the 2024-25 TV season lineup, will offer a glimpse into the lives of the young family, continuing the narrative spark ignited by "Young Sheldon."

Jordan took to Instagram to share his excitement about the new venture, telling fans "GET READY!!!! The Cooper family continues," which he coupled with an expression of gratitude for the support garnered by "Young Sheldon" and his hope to meet fan expectations with his next endeavor. This new chapter marks a significant step for the actor as he transitions from being part of an ensemble cast to taking on a lead role, which as KENS5 reported, has caused quite the buzz among fans and industry watchers alike.
