what chris said about william, welling it up every time he sees him, it's me. since i've first saw him, i just tear up, in every version too, young william hits so hard to, god
I too have not had a vaca with my husband since my sons were born . Yeah sure weekends away but no more than that . They are now 22 and 19 . It's time.
Sterling, as a mom of two boys, I get that. I don't lock the door. My sons will talk to me through the half open door when I'm using the bathroom. It's like not a big deal.
The end fan segment about grief was beautiful and so helpful. I almost skipped it but I am so glad I didn’t. My father passed 6 months ago and I am still deep in the trenches of grieving. I thought that being a grown 40 year old woman that I would be able to process my dad’s passing fairly well. But at the end of the day as they said. He was a part of me. We were a we and now I am an I. It feels lonely and jarring and so hard to accept. Thank you for being so open with people and creating this space for fans and viewers. It is beautiful.
“Beth is the rock” yes Sterling K Brown. Thank you for giving the respect Beth deserves. She is literally my favorite character and when I saw her get that dance studio and seeing her dance again I literally was in tears because that woman deserved to have her dream become reality
I don’t know if this comment section can handle my unpopular opinions about Miguel 😂 but here I go: SPOILERS 🚨 1. His positive effect on Rebecca’s life was extremely underrated. He was a rock to her as a friend and as a partner and put her always first. 2. Even when I was shocked by that ending revelation on the 2nd episode I think they had already given us enough information to trust Rebecca on her decision. 3. I wish we would’ve had the chance to see even more of his funny side. One of my favorite parts of the show are when Miguel, Beth and Toby can’t handle the Pearsons intensity levels. (Maybe I’m wrong but I think they mention they had their own chat group??) still he is so loyal and respectful to Jack’s memory 4. His story doesn’t get the attention it deserves… one Miguel episode was waaaaayyy too little for me. This is the man who not only grew older with Rebecca but the one who cared for her until the literal last moment of his life.😫 5. Last but not least, when I tell you that I was waiting for those last minutes on that train to play out differently…. 🚂 i’m not joking. Yes Jack was the love of part of her life, the father of her kids, but those last years… i don’t know. .. I know it sounds unrealistic of me, but he was so deserving of spending eternity with her … they don’t even talk on the train… 😭 But I also think he did share the best moments of their life, decided to stick together, helped each other move on, were great companions, supported each other. Maybe that’s the role they were supposed to play in each other’s lives, I don’t know… Do I sound crazy???😅
Sterling - that personal story you shared is remarkably heartbreaking. Thank you for being so vulnerable and open with us -- I cannot imagine how challenging that must have been to portray.
This is Us is one of my favorite television shows ever. I absolutely love this podcast. Chris is hilarious! I am literally laughing out loud as they reflect on their characters. So good!!
I was unsure if I could handle rewatching, but I'm so glad I decided to!. There are so many things I forgot, and just reminds me how much I love the show!
I. love when Sterling says there is no getting it right, there's getting it the best you can. As a mom I love hearing that. When I watch Kate and Rebecca I feel it as a mom and a daughter. Mandy Moore was robbed for 6 years - she should have gotten an Emmy for this role!
Thank you for mentioning Rebecca’s sister! It drove me crazy that you don’t see her outside of a brief flashback. In the episode “Toby” where you get a brief glimpse of Toby’s childhood, you see his brother, but he’s a baby.
@@goldenchick85 Okay great. SPOILER FOR ANYONE WHO ELSE WHO READS THIS!! I was a little (a lot) disappointed that Kevin's ark led back to Sophie. Honestly I can't for sure say what I wanted for them but them reuniting and building a life together was not it. I just feel like they were rushing to get Kevin hitched.
Actually they should have been reunited before. Just covid and the actress playing Sophie was abroad. For me, maybe if there had not been him becoming a father and this other love story detour, I would have had it "smoother"😅
I Def related to big three so much even though we had 2 1/2 then 9 years between us (I'm the middle) and then I related to Rebecca as a mother , after being a mom of one for so long navigating the love and parenting each of my different kids need
Please don’t stop doing this! If you guys can keep this going for every single episode I would be so grateful. There was a part in this discussion where you all are talking about grieving and feeling like there was so much more that you should have done for that person that passed away. Sterling said “you did all you could do, certain things were outside of your control.” Immediately sobbed! I had press pause and allow myself that cry because no one has ever spoken to that part of my grief when I coincidentally lost my mother to stomach cancer. You all have no idea the impact that you are making. This Is Us was hands down my favorite show and I hated to see it come to an end. This podcast was so needed! Please keep going 🙏🏽
I love this episode- especially going back to Dr. K. Randall was so sweet and thoughtful. seeing Kevin and Kate's bond (I am also a mom of twins) and so that melts my heart to see that. @mandymoore was not given her flowers for her GENUIS portrayal of multi decade Rebecca and she should have won several emmys for her work. I love that Dan Fogelman chose to make William's character bi-sexual- again just pure genius!
Please kept the uploads up, we as a whole family love this podcast! Like Tobey mentioned, while watching the series we said “This is Us” so many times…
I can’t believe they didn’t mention the connection between Dr. K telling young Randall that he should show the same kindness to others that his parents showed him when they adopted him and then the kindness Randall showed Andy when he talked him down from the ledge. Adult Randall was putting into practice the advice he got from Dr. K and that was such a sweet moment. ❤
It would be so helpful if they added short clips or screenshots to help us remember the specific scene they’re referencing. I’m sure there are people that can’t rewatch every episode. Others can hopefully like this comment or leave a comment as well so they can see. :)
