It’s the hallmark of a good show that people keep watching when they know what will happen, anyway. “This is Us” fans were as excited for the journey as they were sad reaching the destination.
It was masterful in letting viewers see how characters’ pasts shaped their present by actually showing us and not simply regurgitating the fact in dialogue to get us up to speed. We know Jack died. Weit, years after it happened. It created an air of intimacy and interest among viewers, a new way for us to really care about the characters.
“This Is Us” also reminded us that life is not linear and doesn’t always come with clean, easily digestible conclusions. More often than not, it’s a rubbery noodle, with ups and downs and the ability to morph in directions no one sees coming.
Watercooler show? This isn't M.A.S.H., Dallas (Who shot JR?), the super bowl, American Idol, Lost, Game of Thrones, etc. I've never heard anyone talk about this show in person. The only place I've come across it is on Twitter by promotion or the actors themselves being retweeted.
Ending was a bore to me. Should have ended last week .
