Did I miss the thread on this one?

Hubby and I watched the first 3 episodes last night...

This show is amazing - Brilliant writing, acting, direction, cinematography, etc. etc.

Absolutely LURVE it! :hooray:

Yep!... And aren't the "parents" like the perfect couple?

They're really cute! I love that whenever they have problems, they work it out and come out stronger

Great show. It's all about, well, you know, life. Brilliant. Thanks AW for putting me onto this.

Not so sure the mother is "perfect" with some of her decisions she's made, but the show is quite enjoyable. Not sure if it's because of the acting and such or because it's just something different which is a refreshing change of pace over the drivel that continues on the airwaves.

The wife and I are fans too.

Definitely different from most programming; much more relateable since it focuses on real-life families. We noticed it seems to be the spiritual successor to "Parenthood", which also aired on NBC.

Just found this show last Friday and watched all the episodes through today. Love, love this show. Hate that they left me wondering what's happening with Toby. I am in love with all the characters.

This show is surprising to me because it talks about classic everyday things and still make them great. I love everyone of the Pearson family, but Kevin less, and he was great and more human and complex in this last episode!

Lavern08 · Jan 30, 2017

The irony is that the actor playing Kevin is so good, that we really don't like him, and that's the point. :Thumbs:

Jason · Jan 30, 2017

I think Kevin is going to get much more interesting as the series unfolds...

I agree - Especially since we've been introduced to the "Ex-wife" now.

KTC · Feb 1, 2017

People don't like Kevin?! I did NOT know that. I kind of like his douchey-ness. I liked him ever since he shat a blowhole all over the set of his defunct sitcom.

Ahhhh, based on his actions on the night of his play's "premier," you were so right! :Trophy:

Lavern08 · Feb 25, 2017

It's just getting better and better. :heart:

Jason · Feb 25, 2017

You call that better? I think I went through half a box of Kleenex last episode...

Who am I kidding, I've done that with most of the episodes. Although I not liking the chinks they are writing into Jack's armor...

I hear ya - I meant better in terms of writing, direction and acting.

Don't care about the chinks - I lurve me some Jack! :heart:

Lavern08 · Mar 8, 2017

Sooooo, based on the previews from last night, it looks as though we're gonna see how Jack died in the season finale?

Arrrrggghhh!

telford · Mar 10, 2017

So good that it's been renewed for two more seasons. Yay.

I just caught up with the most recent episode with William's memorial. I'm sitting here crying by myself because everyone else has already seen it and I'm just catching up.

Jason · Mar 19, 2017

So...did they re-write the last episode of Season 1 based on the fact it was renewed? I still have questions about Jack...

Hang on, need a Kleenex

julirew · Mar 19, 2017

There's so much of the show that is right out of my [family's] life.

Lavern08 · Oct 10, 2017

It's baaaaack - Yay! :snoopy:
