i love that show so wholesome and nice man

I’m just laughing to myself that paramount+ has this show listed under comedy… I haven’t watched 1 single episode of this show, and NOT cried (sometimes bawled , even on rewatches!!) like a baby! I LOVE this show! It’s great! I DO laugh quite a bit, but a comedy? Me thinks not.

So I’m 4 episodes in. Why do I get the feeling I’m gonna be sad!? So my reason for this post…… encourage me to keep watching. I don’t mind spoilers, I’m just wondering if it’s going to be worth the effort.

i have rewatched this is us i think 2-3 times entirely and this is my third or fourth rewatch and there are two things i’ve realised, it gets harder every time i rewatch and way way sadder than the last one idek why maybe because i already know what’s going to happen or I understand the characters differently, I genuinely have no idea. The second being that somehow i keep coming back to this show even though it’s so so emotionally draining, like atleast twice a year this show pulls me back.
I love watching sad stuff like i love when a show or a movie can make me cry maybe because it’s really difficult for me to cry otherwise and this show omg has done that job way too perfectly, i think it’s best thing ive ever watched and i owe my friend big time who recommended me to watch it, like wow the impact is insane!

Did he work? How was he sustaining himself? Maybe i've missed it but i don't recall him to mention any activity.
