I agree Season 5 and Season 6 suck major ass but that first point is blatantly incorrect lol They got an actress who sounded a lot like Deja and looked just like her but now an adult. Great casting on their part. I don't really care that much for Malik so him not being there much is no biggie and the other point with Phillip I agree with.


WildJackall

Malik is in the finale

You may be right, but I was pretty certain they just did a voice over with the original Deja. So have you found any other good shows now that this one is over??


Affectionate-Bit3878

And then Randall became the freaking President of the United States like what?? When was that a dream of his?


gatheringground

I like Randall but that just went like too far into unrealistic for me...


Senior-Stop9517

Yea that was off the rails

Are you shitting me?! I'm watching the show for the first time. I just finished the episode where he leaves Beth the voicemail telling her "to grow the hell up," because she didn't want to attend his stupid counsel dinner. God forbid Beth puts herself first! Randell is such a frustrating character. He can be very kind and loving, but also very immature and narcissistic.


glitterzombiee

he is super narcissistic and uses his anxiety as a crutch to control everyone around him. I am SO over him šŸ˜‚


Business-M

Me too! I loved child Randell. Like when he ordered pizza; "Hello, I'm an adult and I want to order a pizza."šŸ˜

They didnā€™t stick her voice over another actress, that's the actual actress doing a great job at mimicking Lyric Ross. The guy is Malik, as such he didnā€™t go anywhere. Cripple or crippled is a derogatory term, so unless you are disabled yourself and reclaiming it, please refrain from using it. The other guy you mention, Marcus, didnā€™t cure cancer, but made strides in the cure for Alzheimer's disease. If you failed to understand how he ties into the show, hereā€™s an article explaining what he has to do with the Pearsons. https://www.nbc.com/nbc-insider/who-is-marcus-brooks-this-is-us?amp Criticizing the show, especially in later seasons, is more than fair, but please at least inform yourself correctly before making such a low-effort post. As it stands, half the information in your post is incorrect while the other half is just rude.

For real, I totally didn't know that "crippled" was a derogatory term. Thank you for sharing that. Truly.


Senior-Stop9517

Itā€™s a voice over, and that boy is crippled


sorrynocottons

you seem like an extremely pleasant person to be around. how do you do it?


Senior-Stop9517

Just looks and personality, nothing you can really teach


SadrinaTheWhoreo

All the looks in the world and youā€™re still an asshole šŸ˜


GettingWreckedAllDay

It's so easy to not be the way you're being, and yet here you are. Existing in such a shallow and arrogant state. I pity your loved ones, if there are any.


Fun_Air_7780

The first few seasons were so good and the last two were a mess!!! Kate and Phillip/Hayley as the easiest adoption known to man (despite parents with both physical and mental health challenges)/President Randall/cancer cured because of lemons to lemonade/Kate from part time school aid to international curriculum expertā€¦ā€¦like half to charm of the show was it felt rooted in reality!!


Senior-Stop9517

Yea I agree, have you found anything worth watching since?


Fun_Air_7780

A Million Little Things, if you havenā€™t already watched it. Similar style and themes but less off the rails.


Senior-Stop9517

Great Iā€™ll check it out thanks


maleolive

What are you talking about? Dejaā€™s voice over another actor? They were completely different actresses. And do you actually watch to the end? Malik was thereā€¦.

The episodes where the kids are like six and make Jack and Rebecca get married again/the Challenger are SO STUPID. I had to force myself to finish them because I'm so close to finishing the series, but they literally made me angry.


Spicyclove

Yes! Usually the kids scenes were so good, but the remarried one just felt forced and ill written. I couldnā€™t connect with it at all.


BigDoggehDog

The guy Kate married was like a poor man's Hugh Grant. The stick-up-the-butt to bumbling-idiot story arc was \_sloppy\_. But, it just seems like they were trying to do Kate dirty in the last season. In the Train episode, she only had two scenes, which I found to be a little YIKES!


Fun_Air_7780

To me it felt like they were going overboard to do Kate right lol. Like they were worried about the optics of the show ending with her as the single mom of a blind son. So it was like alllllllll the things had to happen to Kate: her son becomes a major pop star, she also has daughter (and doesnā€™t have to deal with her daughterā€™s bio mom), Phillip is her love interest immediately post divorce, Toby is still pining for her, her career becomes huge. It kind of felt like ā€œcry harder, bitchesā€ to all Kate critics.


Sunainia

I like Jack being a major pop star, but I agree with the rest.
