“These things are hard to come by, I’ve had a couple, but they were all tough,” Potts shared of Young Sheldon’s success

Annie Potts is mulling over what comes next in her career as she prepares to say goodbye to Young Sheldon.

During an appearance on the May 10 episode of The Talk alongside her costar Zoe Perry, Potts, 71.

Admitted that she has been emotional about the CBS sitcom coming to an end after seven seasons.

“I mean, I love the cast. Wonderful character to play,” she shared. “But hey, I’m old, this could be my last rodeo. I mean, I thought about that though, panicked me a little bit. 

These things are hard to come by, I’ve had a couple, but they were all tough, so yeah.”

When she and Perry, 40, were asked if they had taken “a little something from the set,” Potts wasted no time ratting out her costar, saying, “Zoe stole some stuff.”

“I may have taken a little watch…my husband said will you please bring that back,” Perry explained. “I was like the watch, really? I’m constantly fidgeting with it, maybe that’s why he noticed it.”

Potts then inquired, “Does it work?” and Perry responded, “No.”

Co-host Jerry O’Connell then asked if there was “any chance” that the costars would reprise their roles for the upcoming Young Sheldon spinoff centered around Georgie (Montana Jordan) and Mandy (Emily Osment).

“We don’t really know yet,” Potts said and Perry added, “You never know.”

Last month, Potts told Variety that she and her costars felt “totally ambushed” by CBS’ decision to end the hit comedy.

“If a show is starting to drag or lag or have a lack of stories or whatever, then you kind of see it coming,” Potts said of the show’s cancellation. “We were totally ambushed by this. I was, anyway.”

Potts also called the cancellation “such a stupid business move,” citing not only its continued ratings success but its popularity on Netflix and TikTok.

For Potts — who plays Sheldon’s grandmother, Meemaw — the show’s ending is bittersweet in no small part because she’s loved watching her young costars — Iain Armitage, 15, and Raegan Revord, 16, who plays Sheldon’s twin sister Missy — grow up.

During an interview with PEOPLE in February, Potts became emotional while talking about saying goodbye to the young cast.

“I’m going to cry right now,” she said. “I love the children, and it’s been a privilege to watch them grow up. [Iain is] so grown up, and when we started, he and Reagan would get on my lap and kiss me and play with my fingernails and my ears. They were tiny, and all day long, they just say, he would say — and they still do — ‘I love you. I love you, Miss Annie.’ ”

Young Sheldon’s series finale will air May 16 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.
