I know what the show is about. However, it's not believable that no family members would show up. Makes no sense. Even in ThirtySomething (which this show emulates), the main friends had family members that would make an appearance, especially when there was a death.

I’ve just started watching episode one. I’ll give it a few episodes and see what develops. I’ve put This is Us on hold a while ago and barely made it through 5 or 6 episodes. Very sad and sappy and also a lot of jumping around through time. Gets a little tedious and if this show is too sad and sappy I’ll kick it to the curb. I want to be entertained but not be a dishrag after watching something. Enough stuff in real life to deal with.

I started watching on Episode 3....only because I had seen the actor who plays Rome on Kimmel and he was hilarious. Anyway, after about 20 minutues I was ready to tune out, until I found out there was an affair going on with the dead guy's wife. Like, wow, how'd that happen? So I watched eps 1 and 2 and will now continue watching until I get bored with it.

I agree with whoever said the conversation at the hockey game was completely unrealistic if these guys are rabid fans. Also, why was the affair guy at Delilah/John's daughter's softball game? Also, I thought the little table had not been pushed to the railing and was off to the side with the envelope and the phone....but yet they showed John stepping on the table to hoist himself over the rail?

Last night episode made me sad and appreciate the show. When the girl with breast cancer choose not to get treatment because the random guy she met day before chemo took her to John's funeral as first date. He had no clue, this small careless act of his became base of major life decision for someone else. Life truly is made up of million little things that we don't notice.


In my personal life, I recently got text from my friends little sister thanking me for helping her make one of the major decision in her life. Several years ago over dinner my friend and I casually gave this girl advise about life/career, as she was trying to figure out what to do post Bachelor degree. Something I said hit home & helped her make her decision. 3 years later, she still says I convinced her to choose her path but I can't remember what I said.

Ashley finally gives Delilah the 'envelope' to open next week!

Caught Delilah rubbing her belly at the end when the daughter was playing the guitar and singing.

Well the secretary giving the envelope to Delilah was a fake-out. How annoying. Did anybody else know that she wouldn't go through with the abortion?

I agree. And the longer she holds onto it, the worse it will be.

I also thought the whole abortion thing was dumb because it doesn't make sense to abort if it's a last connection to her husband.
