Does anyone else watch this show?

I love it, but nobody seems to know about it! Sad

I think Cassidy and the wedding singer spent the night together and Kevin had to sleep on a couch or something so that’s why he was tired 😁🐣

Loopytiles · 22/04/2022 06:02

Ooh I’d like that!

Gaspingandleaping · 22/04/2022 08:52

Loved Maddison and Beth. So funny.

So I think the wedding is in 2025 as the twins are 5 and they were born during the pandemic?

The dementia scenes are really well done. I also wondered about Randall's daughters. His speech was pretty dreary wasn't it?

SynchOrSwim · 22/04/2022 09:37

I think Beth and Randall's daughter's weren't in it because they would have aged too much to be played by the young actresses but not enough to be played by the older actresses we've seen in flash forwards. I think he mentioned they were there though.

The floral wrap was Cassidy's, the poem lyrics would obviously be the wedding singer's so I think the bra is Sophie's.

Loved it when Madison tried to copy Beth saying "You ain't slick Kev" and Beth was like "uh uh" shakes head 😄

Loved this episode. As a carer to my severely disabled adult son, Miguel saying he just wanted to drink the wine really resonated. It’s a hard thing to come to terms with the realisation that this is the rest of your life, the little titbits of time you do get to just be you are so vital.

Also (and it breaks my heart to say this because I love Miguel), but do we think he dies soon? The hints at his health deteriorating, him not being at Rebecca’s death bed, the point they made about Kate making Rebecca’s decisions in his absence and now we know there’s an episode titled Miguel very soon…

HerbErtlinger · 22/04/2022 10:17

I think they implied the girls were there (Randall joking they were his security detail) without actually showing them because it would probably be overwhelming to have more actors of different ages in the roles, possibly.
I hate waiting a week for an episode, I really just want to binge the last ones but too impatient to let them build up

Loopytiles · 22/04/2022 11:52

I wonder if it’ll become overwhelming or Rebecca doesn’t remember Miguel and he decides to leave, for both their sakes. Or yes, dies.

diddl · 22/04/2022 12:02

They seem to be paving the way for Miguel to die before Rebecca-hopefully it's a misdirect!

Oh didn't think of that!

BaconAndAvocado · 22/04/2022 14:46

Just finished watching the last 2 episodes.....still blubbing here over Rebecca’s song at the wedding!

is that the actual end of This Is Us? (Please say no)

EasterIssland · 22/04/2022 15:03

I reas an interview yesteday think in ew that from the writer and he was saying not to thing about an life ending illness for Miguel … but it’s true whether we’ll have him dying on the 15th episode. I read I think on ig that two characters were dying this season.

also he said not to expect anything from Kevin’s life story and that anything could happen

so I think it might be Sophie but he ends up single and only wears the ring to pretend to be jack

Ohquietone · 22/04/2022 15:37

I wish they’d put all episodes up. I wish they’d made Phillip a bit more likeable. I can’t really see him and Kate as a couple. I found him annoying in modern family as well. I’ve been enjoying it though. It does get a bit sickly how much Jack is idolised though.

Loopytiles · 22/04/2022 15:42

Yes, bored of Jack

We have a few more episodes yet, that was episode 13 and the final one (18) airs at the end of May.

I hate how the writers have wasted so much time with dull, boring flashbacks of life with Jack. Did they need to use Milo more because he was being paid a lot and is "the star"? The Pearson's are exhausting. Kate put too much on Rebecca with the swanky out of town wedding and performance and all that crying - she just seems to cry a lot and have everyone dancing attendance on her. Beth is a saint for putting up with sanctimonius Randall.

I think Kevin ends up alone in the flash forward at Rebecca's death bed. His son said that Kevin had gone to get takeaway as there was no food in the house. And someone, Randall, I think said "typical Kev." Maybe Kevin didn't sleep with anyone at the wedding, the bra was there for a another (humorous) reason.Sophie looked fantastic, younger than she looked in New York when she got back with Kevin briefly. I love the fan theory that she becomes Rebecca's nurse and gets back with Kev, but they've tried twice and he's let her down.

diddl · 22/04/2022 18:46

It was so strange/stupid (to me) when Jack walked in in the present day.

(Rebecca thinking that Kevin was Jack)

Could easily have done that without using Milo!

I actually thought that was an interesting scene, and quite sad when Nicky leaned over towards Kevin and asked if he was okay.

But by then we already knew that she was mistaking Kevin for Jack so it didn't have any impact.

It's obviously upsetting for Kevin-but my goodness, poor Miguel!

Justkeeppedaling · 22/04/2022 20:13

Jack is the least likeable of all of them imo. Do you think we're supposed to like him? Or not like him?

BinBandit · 22/04/2022 20:24

I struggle to like any of the main characters to be honest - and yet here I am still watching! Grin

Beth can be okay but that whole ballet teacher thing did it for me. Their 3 daughters - meh. I like Nickie's new wife and Madison and Miguel and I think that's about it.

Peachyqueen · 22/04/2022 20:54

I didn't realise til I saw NBC post on Instagram, that the song Rebecca sang was to the theme tune to the show 😭

Justkeeppedaling · 22/04/2022 21:39

Ha! Neither did I!!

I liked Jack in the first few seasons but I couldn't get over the way he treated his mum and Nicky.
As for the rest, I think this season has made a lot of them not just unlikeable but very inconsistent. Although I do still like Kevin and think his arc with Nicky, the vets and the twins has been good.

nutellingyou · 22/04/2022 23:51

I haven't RTWT but has anyone considered that Kevin's life might mirror Jack's in that he might die...
sorry I just woke up thinking that. Maybe he has a near death experience or something and we think he'll die? I think the last episode will be very Kevin based. And obviously very Rebecca based too 😢

I love this show so much. Every single character was totally opened up and so many feelings were shared. Just so sad it's ending.

XelaM · 23/04/2022 05:17

Madison, Miguel and Nicky are the only redeeming characters. Everyone else is super annoying. Don't even get me started on St. Jack reappearing in those pointless flashbacks and Randall the Senator's (🙄) speech. I also hated Kate's dress and hairstyle.

I have always been team Sophie, but I find myself caring less and less. Maybe it's the actor's real life persona that's now colouring my view of (and putting me off) Kevin.
