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.
