This Is Us (NBC) TV Show • Page 7

Yeah, it rules. And you're just about where it goes from good to good

 

The whole accidental shrooms trip was handled so well.. Especially for a show on network television.

This show is nonstop with its drama but somehow manages to stay out of the corny lane (most of the time)

 

For a show that plays up the whole "tv's best tearjerker!" thing, it earns the great majority of its drama and feelingsy moments. I feel like it respects the viewer more than your average network hit.

 

I think the moments that wrecked me the most were The mailman talking about William and the dream Randall had of his two fathers talking

 

Just started watching this a few days ago. Surprisingly, I absolutely love it. I'm only on episode 5 but catching up quickly

 

Almost done watching the new episode. This show still packs a punch!

 

Obviously with a network show that requires 18 or so new episodes per season there are definitely going to be quote "filler" episodes or whatever, but I have to say that even the episodes in this show that can be classified as that still have great moments. Like this week's had some great moments. Toby and Rebecca and Kevin and Beth were my two favorites.

 

Loved hearing Fleet Foxes on last night's ep. Cool to see Sly too.

 

Beth
Kate

 

"The happiest moments will also be a little sad." Damn.

 

Kevin is straight up bumming me out this season. I really liked where his arc was headed. Also this episode reminds me that I also miss William very dearly.

 

Ya it's tough to watch Kevin spiral down after seeing him on a positive trajectory.

 

I think something is still going to happen with him this season, idk what, but I definitely don't see his story ending on such a low note. Who knows, though?

 

Toby's proposal was pretty much the sweetest thing I've ever seen though. Great writing.

 

“I’m a plastic surgeon.”
“Butts or boobs?”
“Burn victims, actually.”

That may have been my hardest laugh this year. So unexpected.

 

Just gonna end the episode on Randall’s line like that smdh

 

That episode, and then they drop that line at the end

 

I have zero sympathy for Kevin. This episode was super annoying to watch. I get that he never dealt with his dad dying but it’s not believable to me that that’s all it takes to get him to spiral like this, especially when Randall has been through so much more and what Kate’s going though. Plus he’s had everything handed to him and he still treats everyone like shit. Idk if I’m missing something but his storyline is annoying.

 

This show's return wasted no time trying to make me cry.

 

After this last episode I think you were.
And this is coming from someone who's been harsher on this show than most.

I think they did a great job showing what led to his issues while also acknowledging that he's partially to blame.

 

Shit got real in the Pearson family this week. Though to be honest I really enjoyed hearing Beth, Toby and Miguel talking at the bar. It's a cool side of the story to explore and I think they're gonna do more of that this upcoming season.

 

Well said.

 

How much has Miguel had to drink?!

I was dying.

 

Remind me what that line was?

 

That post was about the episode where Kevin has his meltdown after the Alumni thing and goes to Randall's house at the end. The last line was Randall saying Kate lost the baby.
