I wondered if it will be good. I don't give it long though, if it doesn't interest me.

I've watched the first few episodes, I'm really enjoying it too. All the cast are really good. It's not usually the kind of thing I'd watch either.

Both me and DP love This Is Us.

A word of advice though make sure you have a box of tissues handy! I haven't managed to make it through an episode without crying yet! Don't worry it's not just full of sad bits, there are plenty of heartwarming moments that have made me cry. There are also quite a few laugh out loud moments too.

OP, can we ask for a UK Pace on this?

I'm really looking forward to it.

My friend in the US is raving about this. She says she has cried her way through it though!

What's it about?

It's hard to explain what it's about without giving it away, although the pilot explains it all.

It's a drama about a group of people who all share the same birthday (I don't really think I'm selling it there, by the way), but I can't think of anything to compare it to.

About four characters all reaching their 34th birthday. That's all I know.

I'm enjoying it! I love Milo (Jess from Gilmore girls). It said pilot but I assume from other comments that a whole series was made. How far ahead is the us?

I'm enjoying it so far too. Although not sure why no one has suggested a c-section if the delivery is looking so complicated?

musicinspring1 · 06/12/2016 21:33

Yes - I thought that about the c section too! Something sad is going to happen with the family isn't it. Sad

What did I miss? I've just come back in the room and there's three babies. I thought one was still born?

I would watch it on catchup if you can as it's hard to explain but will try to if you can't.
