So I couldn't find the last thread, but surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet.
What did you think of last night's episode?

First time I liked it in a while. I was finding it was too much, but last night wasn't so much a depressing episode. I really enjoyed it.

I really liked it. I wasn’t really into this season so far, but I’m happy that they are finally showing Kevin’s character a bit better, and showing progress with Kate. I also really liked the 3 inlaws hanging out.

Loved this episode so much! I still can't stand Kate and I don't think I ever will, but I'm starting to like Miguel more and more. Like PP said, I loved the scenes with the 3 inlaws at the bar, too funny! They have a great dynamic between them.

GREAT episode!!..................and I've been bored to tears this season. This felt like season 1, it was emotional and just really well done. I'm hoping the rest of the season continues like this.

That felt normal to me b/c that's how I felt about my childhood. There was only 2 of us (my older brother and myself) but I felt like my parents did everything for my brother and were really hard on me. When I said something as an adult, my mom was stunned that I felt the way I did about my childhood, but even now she sometimes plays favorites with him and even told me on my wedding day that I was the reason they only had 2 kids (b/c my brother was an easy-going kid and I was high maintenance).

I can see how each sibling would remember their childhood differently. Randall and Kate probably thought their parents were always about Kevin b/c he was the star athlete, but not thinking about the times that Kevin saw because it was normal for them (for the dad to dote on Kate and the mom to dote on Randall).

I'm surprised they didn't bring up how mean Kevin was to Randall since that was a theme of last season.

Was thinking the same thing about Kevin. See, I think he made too much of it and let himself be pushed away. At least that's how I felt. He could've been closer to Randall, but I thought he was tough on him his whole life and I give it to Randall for still being there for his brother even though he never treated him like a brother except for the one time when he was really there for him. I'd like to see more of Kevin and Randall and them get close.

I feel like this is only the 2nd time we've seen any depth from Miguel, especially present-day Miguel.

I love the bar seen too- I love Beth. Also, the Beth/Randall scene in the beginning. Chat Icon

I think this episode was also good because we got to see the whole family together i the present, which only really happened at Christmas & William's funeral, if I remember correctly. ( Oh, and Kevin's play, but they didn't interact much & people left early.)

Re: This is Us **possible spoilers**

Another great episode. Glad it was a tear jerker. Tired of depressing episodes, but I have a feeling they are leading up to Jack's death soon.

Anyone else wonder what Kate does and where's her friends? I know they focus on the family, but she had a job as an assistant first season and then they never went back to that. Now she meets this girl from class and they are dress shopping together.

Yeah, I think the next episode will have the fire/jacks death. They forgot the batteries and showed the fire detector at the end and next weeks episode Rebecca is wearing her Steelers shirt which she was wearing when she pulled up to the burnt house. Also Kevin’s suit looks like the same suit he wears to the funeral Chat Icon

I dont think any of them have close friends, it appears all of their siblings and partners are there best friends. I always thought they were a little closed off from the world to have friends outside their families too. But I don’t understand how they all have no jobs yet live nice lives.

I also find that Randall should seek counseling for himself, he doesn’t want to work anymore or at least doesn’t know what he wants to do and it’s putting to much pressure on his wife, which isn’t fair.

If you remember last season when Rebecca pulled up to the house and it was burned by the fire? Assume the batteries has something to do with that......

Agree!!! I used to be glued to the TV, no one call or talk to me while it's on kind of show and now same with you, I find myself on FB or doing something else while it plays in the back round.

We all know there was a fire. I think that the smoke detector not having batteries in it was TOO obvious for this show - we all know how they like to twist things when we least expect it.

Only thing, didn't Kate say it was her fault her Dad died or that she blames herself? Could have sworn I remember her saying that, so has to be a twist to what caused the fire.

Maybe because she took off while they were in the mall, so the distraction made them forget to buy batteries? A stretch for sure, but maybe?
