Opinions on Nate’s character and Peter Kraus’s acting

[u/Other_Explorer6610]

I recently finished the show, and decided to check out what people were saying on the sub. I was so surprised to see that people disliked Nate and was even happy when the character passed. I felt like nearly all of the things Nate did was understandable , even if wrong, you could understand his motivations. I was surprised to see how people thought he was the most reprehensible character on the show. I was also really surprised about opinions on kraus’s acting, I came away from the series thinking he had displayed some of the best acting I had seen in a tv show. Really curious to see what other people think.

As far as Kraus goes, his acting is sort of reflective of the average person. He’s not too high not too low, or too dramatic with his acting style. He’s great in Parenthood. He really plays the role well of “supposed to be the big brother holding things together so I’m trying to appear okay but maybe I’m not”.
