This is Us

[MollynAlly]

Anyone waiting for This is Us season 5? Hopefully will show in UK end of October! Anyone who hasn't watched it, I would strongly recommend it!

New ep is up. Season finale. It does not disappoint. I warn you all get the tissues 😂

Ken Olin has tweeted this -

Hope you liked the season 5 finale last night. @NBCThisisUs.
Hang on. We’re coming back.
January’22. The final season.
18 episodes, straight through.
And That’s Us.

That was more like it!

I did not expect that ending!!

As my kids say IKR? Ending up there with THAT episode of line of duty 🤣

Ah sneaky ! Loved that ending but too much schmaltzy flashback to Big 3 childhood

So bets on Madison ending up with Kevin? When he said "one for the ages" I am sure Rebecca said that to Jack (or other way round) in the garage when they first said I love you. That must mean they're for keeps. It was obvious Kate and Toby split from the flash forwards and how the rest of family were behaving towards Toby. Hope fewer breaks in next season, this one has been a drag.

Just watched the finale. Noted the headed paper Kevin had his speech on (in flash forward at the end). Thing us, because of the inclusion of covid 2020/21 this season, that other flash forward (the one at the house) which will no doubt resolve next season, will be set quite far ahead and they were all a bit grey/aged in that (as Rebecca is MUCH older in the bed scene). So it will all end for good in the future? Say 2030? Driverless cars heading out to the cabin type thing? Or have I just overthought that all too much🤣

I actually screamed at the end of the season finale!!!

Loved the finale! Cannot wait for the last season!

@marplemead

Nobody saw it coming. Read loads of explanations in the ig but I’m not buying it

I’ve avoided this thread till I had seen

Wow. What an episode abs ending

Didn’t expect that !!!

So we know Nicky marries as ring on deathbed plus says end of s5 about the wife in the corridor ro Kelvin

I’m wondering if Toby dies or they split up , due to distance as he does love her

It’s 5yrs in the future as said 45

Seems weird to have madison there as a bm as surely wouldn’t be if an ex , tho again she was later bf

So will Kevin and madison make it up the aisle a year later

He couldn’t say he loved her 😢

Can’t wait for s6

But so sad that’s the end

Blondeshavemorefun Toby was there in the flash forward in the house. IIRC he said something along the lines of he’d spoken to Jack and ‘they’ were on their way, and I think he thanked someone for asking him to come to see Rebecca?

Ah. Thanks I forget the flashbacks and what they mean

May have to watch end of s4 again and beginning of 5

Shame we don’t see more of jack as an adult coping with life as a blind man etx

I’ve been looking at previous flash forwards while I’m waiting for my shopping delivery to come.

Season 3 episode 1 - Randall calls Toby and asks if he’s coming down, says he’s not sure if he should and Randall replies saying that she wants him to be there. The camera then pans out to Toby lying alone in bed.

Season 3 episode 18 - that’s the one where they’re gathered at the house in the final scene and Toby walks in and says that Kevin’s house is huge, so he obviously hasn’t visited before, and thanks Randall for calling and Randall says he’s glad that he decided to come.
There’s another scene in the kitchen where Kevin’s son walks past and Randall asks where his Dad is, he says he’s gone out to get a takeaway because he realised that they didn’t have any food, Randall commented “Classic Kevin”. Not sure if that debunks the theory that Madison and Kevin get together after all, surely if they’re living there with the twins they wouldn’t both have let food supplies run low?

Impressive detective flash findings @MadisonAvenue

Read loads of explanations in the ig but I’m not buying it

I’ve only read the one fan theory.
It’s Kate and Toby’s vow renewal. We saw that Madison’s mother had an English accent and Phillip (?), who we’ve been led to believe is marrying Kate, is actually Madison’s half brother. Madison and Kevin are going to be marrying so that would then make him Kevin’s future brother in law.

Not sure why Kevin would be making jokes in his speech though about a relative. Plus, Chrissie Metz has said that she and Chris Geere had to do a chemistry read (think that was what she called it) because they were going to be having a relationship.

@MadisonAvenue thank you for the flashback info! I don’t think that fan theory works about Madison and Philip being siblings and them all attending a Toby and Kate marriage renewal ceremony tho’. It was a shocking ending this season but I do think at least we now don’t think Kate is dead? And I hope Kevin gets back with Sophie.

I never thought kate was dead

Can't believe season 6 will be the last season.

@Blondeshavemorefun

I never thought kate was dead

Agree, def thought they'd split but the colleague was a curve ball.

Questions are is Kevin with Madison (I hope so) and is Rebecca with Nicky (I hope not).

Why do people think Rebecca and Nicky are together ? Not sure I’ve ever seen an image of them talking At all !

Omg that ending!!! I totally bought that Kate is marrying her colleague BUT he doesn't look dressed like a groom and would he really be next door to Kate if so!? But the half sibling thing seems far fetched and a huge coincidence. But good spot that Madisons mother was English.

Kevin said he's 45 so how many years in the future was that snippet? 1 or 2?

I don't think Rebecca and Nicky are together. I think Miguel dies, Nicky reunites with his teenage sweetheart Sally, and Nicky spends a lot of time (perhaps lives in the cabin next door?) with Kevin and Rebecca at the house Kevin builds for her in memory of Jack.

I'm starting to find Kevin's love life a bit tiresome 😑😑😑

Four or five years in the future. Kate's defo marrying Phillip - Chrissy Metz and Dan Fogelman have both confirmed it.
