But isn't that part of what waiting for the story to unfold and see why they are the way they are all about? The twins both seem to have issues. For Kate it's her weight, for Kevin he's a self absorbed narcissist who has to rely on her or others to function. Randall seems the most sorted of the three of them.

Exactly. As someone who's on US pace I think I can say without spoilers that it would be extremely unwise to reach any conclusions about anybody at this stage.

Illegally watching TV through Kodi or something similar no doubt.

Just a reminder that Episode 3 is on tonight, although judging by the lack of posts, not many on these forums seem to be watching it.
I am liking the episodes so far. I would have thought the switching scene between the different eras would be confusing but it doesn't spoil the viewing or the plot at all, easy to follow. Really liking the boyfriend of the female twin, sounds like the ideal best friend you'd want - regardless of whether you're male or female!

Well said, that All4 exclusive "Walter Presents" bollox is bugging the sh*t out of me. Have not watched any of them online as squinting at a 14" pc monitor is not entertainment in my eyes.
I watch mostly TV5 and BBC Four nowadays. I started to watch Locked Up on my Apple TV but although the programmes itself is brilliant, I am having a hard time watching it as I can't fast forward the ads. On a wider note, Walter Presents has turned out to be a damp squib IMO as it seems both BBC4 and Sky Arts has lost out to them and there are not so many new foreign dramas being aired on those channels this year. Modus is excellent on BBC4, though. |

How did This is Us do ratings wise on Channel 4? Has it rated well?

But, just popped in to have it noted that I absolutely love this series; it is a "must watch" for me.

Well it didn't take long for Channel 4 to lose interest and stick it on a later slot

What's it moved to? I'm pretty sure my planner was showing last night's epidode recording at the usual time. But, like most programmes on commercial tv, it's all about the ratings and if the show isn't getting them it will be moved aside for something else.

At the end of last nights episode they said it would be on at 22:00 from next week.
"Stick it on at a later slot", as you put it, in C5 speak means 11pm or later so thank yourself lucky. Anyway, just record it and watch it back next day advert free as I, and many others, do. |

I wouldn't go by the lack of posts on this occasion, there are still some people who haven't made their way back to the forums since that forced break by DS - like me! I can recall trying to quote a couple posts re. the 2nd episode and getting nowhere. Now I can't remember what I was going to say!

Thinking now after viewing three excellent episodes of this that Sky Atlantic would not be interested in it. No nudity, softcore or filthy language. Just a poignant family drama, the likes of which don't seem to get made made anymore. NBC commissioned a nugget with this.
Zombies, werewolves and Vampires have eaten all the normal people it seems. |

Me too. Just caught up on Episode 3 and realise I've been missing shows like this, since thirtysomething really.

Mandy Moore must drive other women crazy. She has it all, teen popstar who grew up to be even more beautiful as an adult and she can act very well too.

Was too young to understand Thirtysomething when it was on, but agree. Party of Five was the last similar family based drama I watched. Very good move by NBC.

I'm liking it more and more. Towards the end of the first episode I was thinking "this is the most cliched sentimental tosh I've watched in a long time" But I'm very glad I stayed around, as it has become more and more engaging.
I particularly like the portrayal of Kate - she isn't played to the stereotypical fat girl screechy template at all; good work by Chrissy Metz. Toby on the other hand is just way too good to be true. But pretty sound acting all round, I think. |

Just thought I'd remind people watching that it's on at 22:00 tonight rather than 21:00
