Before Justin Hartley could pick up any woman he wanted on This Is Us, he was rejected by one who was drinking Miller Genuine Draft. How cute was the 25 year old in that 2002 ad?

This Is Us is the most loved new show and episodes like the one that airs tonight at 9p on NBC is why.
Before Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) and Rebecca (Mandy Moore) had kids, they were just a married couple who weren’t sure they wanted them. They were still learning about each other and Rebecca wanted to know more about her husband loves. He loves football and she asks him to teach her about the game. The two bond over the game and they talk about the prospect of kids. Something she does not want. As we know, something will happen that will leave her pregnant with triplets and tonight you will find out what that is.
Rebecca wasn’t the only female in the Pearson family who loves the pig skin, Kate (Chrissy Metz) also has a fondness for it and likes to watch the game by herself. Her boyfriend (Chris Sullivan) wants to share in the experience with her, but he screws it up big time. A revelation that will cause him to finally meet her father.
Talking about fathers, Kevin (Justin Hartley) moves in with Randall (Sterling K Brown) and his family and they can’t wait for him to get out. Before Kevin gets his own place, the Manny takes care of his nieces. He might’ve taken good care of kids when it was scripted for him, but in real life he sucks.
How awful is he? You will just have to tune into this show that makes you love it more and more ever week.
Last week, viewers fell in love with American Housewife and tonight at 8:30p on ABC they get to love her and her family even more. Katie (Katy Mixon’s) kids keep her up all night and all she wants is a nap. Every time she gets close to closing her eyes, something else comes up. Moms around the World will understand her pain, as people will laugh with her about the never ending desire for a quick shut.

Then at 10p but over on NBC, it is a nice day to go for a swim on This Is Us. Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) and Rebecca (Mandy Moore) take their triplets to the community pool and we see how hard it is for parents to monitor 3 kids who are the same age at once. As we see them struggle, we also get to see how little things from this outing effect them when they get older.
Fast forward to modern day, Kevin (Justin Hartley) has moved to NY and he already has his first audition. To say it doesn’t go well would be an understatement. Thankfully he has his brother Randall (Sterling K. Brown) nearby. Only problem is Randall and his biological father are still trying to acquaint with each other. Then there is Kate (Chrissy Metz) who just saw her boyfriend’s ex wife, who is perfect, for the first time. Now she wants to get to know her better. She gets really close to her. Maybe too close.
And This Is Us is close to our hearts.

Tonight at 10p on NBC, This Is Us delves further into the ’80s, so that we can see our 3 new favorite 36 year olds as children back then.
Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) and Rebecca (Mandy Moore) are dealing with being parents to triplets differently. For her it is all in and for him it a lot of pressure to be the man of the family. It will cause problems in their marriage, but will they be able to work through it. Meanwhile back then, we get to see how young Kevin and Randall interacted, and let’s just say it wasn’t easy on him to have an adopted brother of a different color in the late ’80s.
That was then, and this is now. Kevin (Justin Hartley) is still dealing with fallout of quitting his TV show. He will have to decide whether or not to go back to it or forego his acting career. His sister, Kate (Chrissy Metz), is still dealing with her weight issues as she starts a new relationship with a man from their overweight support group. Finally, Randall (Sterling K. Brown) and his family are dealing with having his biological father (Ron Cephas Jones) back in life. There is a touching moment between Randall’s wife (Susan Kelechi Watson) and Jones that will bring tears to your eyes. Those tears will be wiped away by Brown’s hearty laugh.
All leading to the final seconds where we get to see an older version of Mandy Moore and the makeup department knocked it out of the park. Just like this must see heartwarming drama that has already become an addiction.
