This is us..

It doesn't look like something I usually watch, but I thought I'd check it out and see.

That's what I thought too, but DW watched it and flipped out over how good it was. It was much better than I expected, I'll certainly watch another episode.

You see cigarette before any background people and their clothes
THe cigarette tells you this was long ago

Yes I realize smoking in hospitals was a thing of the past, I just thought it was funny that that wasn't what clicked for me, it was the dated clothes.

I DVR'd it and watched it last night, unfortunately I am a sucker for spoilers and knew the twist, but I still loved it. I loved the scene when Randell is freaking out/laughing over his father with his wife, very real. I love Milo Ventimiglia, so even if it was so/so I would stick with it for a while, but I thought it was very good. DH even said he would watch it, even though it is not his style.

Not reading the comments as I didn't know it was on and missed it. Luckily thry are replaying the pilot on Saturday so I will get the chance to see it.

It's ONLINE at NBC.com

I reserve judgement of the show until I've seen more. It seemed a little touchy feely and too unrealistic for my taste so far. But I will probably give it a second week. I am trying to figure out how they are going to keep the plot going and make interesting story lines now that they already revealed the thing that ties them together.

I think there is a lot of potential for interesting story-telling by weaving together the timelines of how these guys were raised, their parents struggles etc with who they are today and how they turned out.

Before the show started, I was half hoping it would flop so Justin Hartley would come back to Y&R, but I really liked the pilot. I think Genoa City will have to learn to live without him, lol

My grandmother messed with the TV and cancelled the recording. It looks like it's on again over the weekend, so I'm going to try this again.

It has potential. Good story line but too choppy and cliché. A lot like Code Black. I'll give it some more time because I gotta get my Justin Hartley fix. And if I can stick out Fear TWD as long as I have, then I surely can watch an entire season of this show.

 

[Mizzoufan]

We loved it

 

[Pugsly]

Loved it! Do you think this will continue to be a flashback type of show where we will see them growing up or do you think it will just be in the present day and they will recast the parents?

I read a synopsis (possibly from the creator) that said 'imagine you have a box of videos of your life and you randomly pick them out and watch them with no rhyme or reason'. So I think we're in store for a lot of time-hopping.

I really enjoyed it

 

[lorimay]

Finally watched last night and it was so good, totally agree with The Parenthood vibe.
What scares me is when I love a show so much, it usually gets the heave-ho.....

 

[diz8297]

I finally saw the last 10 minutes. I totally loved this show. I think the writing and acting were great. I hope it does well. It's on a tad late for me so I will be watching it later in the week, but man, it's fantastic!

 

[PopSugar]

it will be interesting to find out why Brother #3 is SOOO successful, Sis seems to have no career, and why Brother #2 got into acting(and seems to have NO $$ to fall back on)

Ooooh, Grandma would have gotten a beat-down for that at my house similar to when my DH cancelled the last 3 episodes of Tyrant including the series finale to record re-runs of Ice Road Truckers .

 

[diz8297]

And, what happened to the parents.

 

[PopSugar]

And, what happened to the parents.

yeah-because they "should be still alive"...

 

[kimblebee]

And, what happened to the parents.

They can't answer all the questions in the first episode lol

 

[lilkimmyk]

I've been waiting for this to come on because the previews looked great. It surely did not disappoint! I really liked all the characters and am eager to see what the writers do with them. I loved it, but usually when I love a new show it gets cancelled by the fourth episode so I hope this time the network will give it a fair shot.

 

[mi*vida*loca]

I watched it and really liked it. I kind of started questioning "something" when the doctor was sitting with him and talking after he delivered the babies. I thought the chairs were old looking and why was he in the ambulance bay. Once he pulled out the cigarette it all clicked for me. Can't wait for next week.

 

[CynBeth]

I watched it On Demand tonight and loved it!
