Re: This Is Us│11/8 **Spoilers**

  • What was your favorite part of the episode? My favorite part was when William was in court and he said he was the most disappointed man in the world. I think it speaks to how are system constantly fails a particular group of people and no one takes responsibility for it. I really like how the judge handled it. And the moment when the judge from Williams case and the judge from the Pearson's adoption case were together and the one asked if he's done any good today. 

    What was your least favorite part? I didn't like a lot of parts of this episode. Not that I didn't like the episode but the characters are frustrating me. I'm sure the writers are doing that on purpose. But I didn't like when Randall was meeting Déjà's mom and being very "holier than thou." I also hate that Kevin is ruining his life! 

    What do you think about the next three episode each focusing on one of the big three? I'm excited for it. I can't wait for Kate's episode. I hope they start going into wedding/baby planning mode soon! I do feel like it will kind of be a break in the story line though and there are some things that will be left up in the air. Like Kevin and Sophie and Déjà. 

    GTKY: Which character are you? Not, who is your favorite, but who are you most like in personality? I would say I'm a Rebecca. Controlling but I mean well.

  • What was your favorite part of the episode? 
    When Randall was going back and forth with Deja’s mom and told her not to “get it twisted, I wake up to a head scarf and the smell of coconut oil in the morning - I’m married to a black queen.” I was all “yes!!” and hit rewind twice. 

    I loved that line because I love Beth and Randall’s relationship and it’s refreshing to see a black couple with that dynamic on tv. I also loved the scene in general because, yes, @krashke, he was “pulling a Randall” being holier than thou (that’s his character for you!) but it was apparent they both came out swinging over their love for Deja, which made me tear up. And, end result is that Randall came to his senses and allowed her to call their home to speak to her child. 

    What was your least favorite part? 
    Kevin and his meltdown at Sophie’s door. Womp womp. 

    What do you think about the next three episode each focusing on one of the big three? 
    Excited. Randall is my absolute favorite though. Kevin mostly gets on my nerves, even as a kid. Just so whiny. 

    GTKY: Which character are you? Not, who is your favorite, but who are you most like in personality? 
    Mmm...I can identify with Randall’s drive to be the best - best parent, best child, best spouse, best employee. Related, I can also connect with the anxiety he feels when he falls short of being the “best.”

  • @Ash9614 I did like how Randall handled the situation and let Déjà's mom call her. I think he has this idea in his head about a beautiful adoption like his family but the problem is Déjà already has a family. I hope they can find their stride in maybe fostering and helping different kids rather than trying to find someone to adopt. 

    Also Kevin is my least favorite character. He needs to get it together. I'm glad they are gettin his episode out of the way first but I probably wont be too eager to watch it.

  • @krashke Agreed! Randall gets an ideal in his head and can’t deal when things fall short of his expectations.

  • What was your favorite part of the episode? Toby' s proposal. I go back and forth on him...he's all about the grand gestures but in the beginning he came on so strong, pressuring Kate and he can still be really forceful. But he was so sweet, and I identified with it as someone who lost my dad before I met my husband. I thought he handled it so gracefully and said the right things.

    I also loved that Randall line @Ash9614 Everyone gushes about Jack and Rebecca's love story (which I do love too) but especially the end of last season and this one, Randall and Beth are such an aspirational, real seeming couple. 

    What was your least favorite part? 
    All of Kevin's stuff this week...blah. I always feel like his storylines are the weakest, from the Manny, that play, being codependent with Kate. 

    What do you think about the next three episode each focusing on one of the big three? I'm here for it. I'm also really excited to see Kate's pregnancy progress. I read an interview with one of the producers and he said it would progress about the time of an actual pregnancy  (not giving birth by Christmas like some shows). Kinda fun that she'll be progressing on a similar timeline and have her baby sport of close to when we all will :) or who knows with these dang tv seasons...it might end in March  (I feel like they're getting so much earlier).

    GTKY: Which character are you? Not, who is your favorite, but who are you most like in personality? 
    Hmm...I see a mixture of Kate  (people pleaser, some of the same insecurities) and Randall (type A, planner, anxiety from self imposed standards)

    What was your favorite part of the episode? 
    Toby proposing to Kate!!!!! Eeeeeeee! I can't wait for their wedding! 

    What was your least favorite part? 
    Deja visiting her mom, and her mom not showing up.  Only because it just made me so sad. 

    What do you think about the next three episode each focusing on one of the big three? 
    ??I didn't know that was Happening but it sounds good to me! I'm sure it will be great! 

    GTKY: Which character are you? Not, who is your favorite, but who are you most like in personality? 
    Hmmm... Good question! I feel like I'm closest to Rebecca Pearson. She is really relatable to me.  

  • What was your favorite part of the episode? 
    Probably toby freaking out about calling his mom, that was funny. Annnnd the proposal. They're so cute.

    What was your least favorite part? 
    Kevin talking in circles to his gf at her door :( his story line right now hits me in a certain spot, and it's sad to watch.

    What do you think about the next three episode each focusing on one of the big three? 
    Ehh I like sticking to story lines. But these writers are awesome so it should be ok.

    GTKY: Which character are you? Not, who is your favorite, but who are you most like in personality? 
    Rebecca


    +1 to Randall and beth relationship!! Looove it! And that line he pulled to Deja's mom.

  • What was your favorite part of the episode? When the 2nd judge made the adoption official!  I almost cried.  I also loved the line "Road bagel?".  Randall is the best.

    What was your least favorite part? Freaking Kevin.  Before getting married, I went through 2 dramatic break ups and I just feel for Sophie!  "Our future is miserable".... what was he thinking!  Also, when Deja said she had been saving her allowance for her mother, my heart hurt so badly.

    What do you think about the next three episode each focusing on one of the big three? Apparently I didn't watch the coming attractions because I didn't know this.  I suspect the episodes won't feel much different than they usually are.

    GTKY: Which character are you? Not, who is your favorite, but who are you most like in personality?  Rebecca tends to annoy me, and I think it is because I am a lot like her.  I would like to say I'm a Beth!
  • I love Beth and Randall they are #relationshipgoals
