  • What do you want to be when you grow up? It's the age-old question most of us were asked when we were little. Sometimes a childhood dream job becomes a reality. And sometimes, there's a pivot or sacrifice made along the way that leads to a career path different than imagined. Life's twists and turns allow the Pearsons (and us) to discover new passions and gifts and use them professionally. So, as the Pearsons consider (or reconsider) what they're meant to do and how they got to where they are, we do the same.

      Agreed. I always said the same for the show when it was on. This show, this group of brilliant actors, Dan Fogelman, all of them, hit every note, touched all of us and has been the best show on TV in decades. I absolutely LOVE these in depth conversations with Sterling, Mandy and Sullivan! The BEST!

    Sterling played career day so well. He sang so bad even though he's an amazing singer. Now that's talent.

    That Was Us podcast captures the essence of This Is Us - so many incredible deep meaningful conversations but also filled with moments that make you laugh so hard 🤣
    Little Lonnie scenes break our hearts every time😭
    You can see the inner child of Kevin Pearson in Justin's performance, so incredible

    • @wispycrys1

      All the actors who are playing the younger and older versions of each other are so phenomenal! The mannerisms they pick up on and voice inflections that stay consistent regardless of which actor is playing the character... chef's kiss! I'm so impressed with how well they do at that - especially the kids, who presumably have the least experience on the job.

    As a Black Man I in the 10th grade I purposely chose that I no longer wanted to be known as the “smart one” anymore, and thus having everyone asking me for the right answers. So I feel what Sterling is talking at the beginning of this episode about Black people’s experience in the public school system

    I'm still rewatching the episode before watching the "That Was Us" episode, so I don't know yet if any of this comes up in the pod, but...
    This episode contains the only 2 continuity errors I've ever noticed in the series (SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE WHOLE SERIES!):
    1) How could William's father have taught him to play piano - since he died in the war while William was in utero?
    2) How could Kevin have thrown out all the models he built with Jack after Jack died? They were not among the things Jack rescued from the fire.
    Kevin's necklace looks different in this episode than it did later in the series, too. It looks oblong-shaped here, and round and like a wheel in future episodes.
    I loved the Easter Egg of both Rebecca and adult Randall playing the series theme song on the piano in this episode. I noticed that in my first rewatch of the series.
    BEST. SERIES. EVER!

    • @lolak3053
      @lolak3053 Před 5 dny +2

      True. There's also William's building where he can hear Randall's banging at the door in 101, not same entrance system when R&B buy it later.
      Now you talk about the fire , there might be so many things: Dudley Randall's book?...

      THIS is how good this show is vs. some other series. We have Federal agents breaking down discrepancies. I love it. Great call outs too. I'm going to watch this show like i watch marvel now.

    • @wispycrys1
      @wispycrys1 Před 5 dny +2

      @kelseygiddings1119 lol! There are just so many Easter eggs and layers to it. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT writing, acting, and all-around creation. I'm WAY too invested in the Pearsons, but I have no regrets

    • @OneLoveRSR
      @OneLoveRSR Před 5 dny +6

      The irony of error No. 2 is the carefulness they exhibited NOT to say how old Kevin was when Jack died. Grace asked "You were how old?" and he responded with his back to the camera so we couldn't see his mouth "Uh, it was a long time ago". Which in hindsight makes me think they didn't want the audience to know not only how Jack died but also how old The Big Three were when he died so as to not have us start anticipating it when the teen timeline began. So it's so odd that they paid such close attention to one aspect of continuity and not the other.
