I need to catch up. We just started watching season 1. I got my wife to watch the video podcast with me so we are hitting one every couple of days. What a great way to spend our nights as the fall and winter seasons hit!! XOXO
@@ThatWasUs Abosolutely. Whatching the episode of This is Us and then the podcast is pure happiness. The only problem is that I have to stop myself not to keep watching more and more episodes of the series 😅
I agree with it! It is not talked about and it made me feel weird cause at first, when meeting my son, I felt something was wrong with me for not feeling the immediate love but it was one we built together. It is about time we start making parents human lol
@@ThatWasUs - *near tears* ……… 🥲😢🫣I want to be able to talk to you guys- especially Mandy - but I am having a tough time finding my words 🫣… My direct home life doesn’t relate to the aspects of the series. I just watch for cathartic therapy intents and purposes. I don’t know Sterling and Chris as well as I do Mandy and Milo. I want to tell them that I’m eager for episodes 2x11, 2x13 and especially 2x14 (🤞🙏 Milo can come back for 2x14), but I don’t know how to put it. However, it was mentioned that any listeners or watchers could discuss anything they wanted….right? 🥹
Wow! Logan Is such an incredibly warm and down to earth young man! Looks like he was raised right twice…once by his real parents and again by you guys through this show!
I started rewatching This Is Us to keep up with this podcast and quickly surpassed the recap. I recently finished the series again (I watched when the show was on air). It’s confirmed that this show is probably the best tv series that captures what it is to be human and the essence of life. How amazing life is, how painful life is, and how short life is. I look forward to being able to rewatch over different phases of life and take something new from it ❤
Chris, thank you for sharing such real & heartfelt experiences. We appreciate that you're willing to go there because we all have those places, yet we don't talk about them. You help make it okay to discuss these topics, & through you, we're reminded that they are universal.
It didn't go to commercial! I remember watching it live and being livid for a half second because I thought it was going to commercial but then I heard Jack breathing, which so mimicked me the viewer in that moment, and was delighted to hear the knock, knock, knock! Honestly, one of my favorite edited moments in the show! A whole wealth of emotions were tapped in that 2 seconds of black.
Yea it definitely didn't go to commercial. It was a fake out. Definitely made Rebecca insisting that he get in the car and they work it out feel more powerful.
Thank you for giving us our Pearson Tuesdays back! I've rewatched the series and fell in love with you all all over again and now learn and experience new things, new feels during each podcast. Simply the best.
The scene after knock,knock, knock- has such a visceral feeling and what’s to come in the future- Mandy’s scream cuts to the soul of the show - I find myself crying along with her screams- heart wrenching performance that felt so real I want to check in with Mandy Moore to say I’m so sorry A lot
I couldn’t think of a better trio to do this podcast. Going through a divorce last year I decided to rewatch the show over the summer . Gave me hope again in life. Thank you for this show and thankful for three of you.
I really enjoyed the interview with Logan! ❤ As a quick constructive criticism though, as interviewers, when you ask someone a question don't start answering it for them or giving options for answers, let the guest shine and answer on their own.
*Super Bowl Sunday* - 2x14 - has to be the one that’s iconically memorable in everybody’s minds … because of course, we all find out the real truth about Jack’s fate🥹… it’s a favorite of mine for the simple reason that it was so beautifully written and beautifully executed too.……And if 2x14 was referred to on the podcast episode when Milo was on … I can only imagine what will happen when we get to 2x14 and have to discuss it in depth! (🤞🙏 Milo can come back for that one)
My favourite part about this episode is that very subtle moment between Jack and Kevin. While Rebecca is explaining things to Kate and Randall, Kevin glances at Jack's bruised fist and he gives him tiniest nod like "yup, THAT happened." Like they had this quick and easy understanding that Rebecca's bandmate was inappropriate with her and Jack reacted to it in the most logical way. Not healthy, but logical.
@@partialartsblackbelt8384 Yeah the show is full of these kinda subtleties that really really flesh out the world and its characters more. What'd you think once you saw it?
Yeah Season 2! Thanks to y’all so much for not taking a break between season 1 & 2! I need y’all to not stop until we get to the series finale. Please & thanks! 😊
As a new mom to an 8 month old, I relate so much to Chris talking about all the crisis you go through becoming a parent. It’s amazing but also so difficult to navigate as you grieve your old life. Thank you for validating my experience ❤
I just feel all the feels when I watch this! You can certainly feel the genuine love and support that you have for one another. LOVE that the big (teen) three are still in contact with one another!
Hope all the Big Three kids have a chance to come on too! @ThatWasUs -- *Mandy* - Um, ummmm……… maybe you guys could do a special episode sometime where your real Big Three makes a cameo appearance? 😉
I can’t express how much I enjoy This Was Us. I enjoyed the series, and have been enjoying the rewatch of This Is Us. You each give such a dimension to each of your respective characters. ❤❤❤
Sterling explained EXACTLY how I felt and what I said when I was pregnant with my second child. "I love this first one so much. How will I, can I love the second one even close to that much?" Then they arrive and there it is...the love multiplies. I could not imagine life without having my two babies.
Getting closer to Deja. Excited for that storyline :D Thought it was hilarious how Logan had that blanket scene filmed but was cut out for making him too much of a villain 🤣 That Rebecca scream truly stays with you and it was great to get all these little hints to follow along as we figure out what happened to Jack. Thanks for another episode of That Was Us.
Hello!!! Welcome season 2!!! Loved this episode also, off course. This show episode after episode just got better. Can’t wait to continue this journey with you guys ❤️❤️
Actually, the fade to black didn’t go to commercial in the original because I remember literally yelling - “Are you SERIOUS?!” at the TV when it went it faded to black. I wouldn’t have turned it back on if you hasn’t heard the knock 2 seconds later. That would’ve been my last This Is Us because I would not have made it through the commercial😂
Although the younger big 3 were all great actors, I think Randall's 8 year-old self looked nothing like him. Whereas all ages of Kate and Kevin were spot on. They had so much detail with everything else.
Watching the show as it aired, teen Kevin scared me a bit as a black woman. If the show went in chronological order, I would've bet money that Kevin was going to play a part in Randall getting seriously hurt in the future. Kid Kevin was more brotherly banter and competition, but Teen Kevin seem to really loathe Randall and I couldn't stand seeing him on my screen because it made me so uncomfortable. I always wondered how he would've treated the triplet if he didn't pass. Logan played the part too well lol
@@nicholasgoetz7212 oh wow, that's awesome!!! We just found the podcast and starting rewaching the show. Very healing for the past 2 very stressful years. Love you guys!!!
What are some of your favorite moments from the Season Two premiere of This Is Us? Did anything surprise you in our interview with Logan Shroyer?
I need to catch up. We just started watching season 1. I got my wife to watch the video podcast with me so we are hitting one every couple of days. What a great way to spend our nights as the fall and winter seasons hit!! XOXO

@@ThatWasUs favourite moment, Kevin and Toby's "bromance" : spare key was for EMERGENCY ^^
@ThatWasUs I loved the scene with William and Beth at the park. Her honesty buffered with humor and their relationship was just so special.
I really hope we can get Lyric on to talk about Deja 🥺
@@JordanLeigh yes!!!
yes pleeease!!
That would make me so happy
Sterling’s laugh is the best ever!!
So contagious 😆
Agreed
I agree!!!
I wholeheartedly agree! It just fills the room with sooo much joy!
I want to be friends with Sterling. Lol
Chris beautifully articulated the crazy duality of becoming a parent. Absolutely loved the conversation he sparked.
I agree with it! It is not talked about and it made me feel weird cause at first, when meeting my son, I felt something was wrong with me for not feeling the immediate love but it was one we built together. It is about time we start making parents human lol
That last scene with Rebecca in the car slayed me. That was heart wrenching.
Breaks us every time.
Totally caught me off guard. I forgot that scene was in this episode!

The tears are literally STREAMING down my face as i push play on this recap
We're crying with you.

I always thought it was funny when Randall went to talk to Rebecca about the adoption and he’s sitting on the counter like a little kid.

Thanks so much Chris for sharing about doubt and low self worth moments. I'll try to do better next time life gives me the chance to❤
Yeah, that got me. There are always moments when we look back and wish we’d seized the day 😞

Oops! At least you're ready for the rest of the season.

It's here!
Happy to be back! I’ve been rewatching the show with the podcast episodes so I was ready to get back to it! 💜💜

ah having logan on makes me really look forward to niles' interview! hopefully for the episode where randall plays golf with his fellow councilmen.
Thanks again!! ❤

Happy birthday! 🥳
