Review of This Is Us

Where do I start? I cannot even put into words how disappointed I am with season 5 starting.

• I used to love Randall and his story with the adoption, his biological father and all. But enough is enough. It is season 5 now and they are still talking about his biological parents, his mom being alive and stuff and it really loses credibility.

• The story is supposed to be about the triplet: Randall, Kevin and Kate, but it is really RANDALL, RANDALL, RANDALL since day 1. And I am so fed up with this already, because his stories take 70 % of the show. I want to see more of Kate and of Kevin.

• Kevin & Madison: What can I say? Although being a hardcore Kevin and Sophie fan, after season 4 ended, I decided to give it a try since I found it somehow thrilling that these two would fall in love, even though they hated each other. But, honestly, I DON'T BUY IT. Like, really ,there is ZERO chemistry between those two. And it doesn't make it any better that they have not had any real intimate scene so far. Dan, if you don't want your wife to kiss Justin, why do you even come up with this idea? Like, really give us Sophie back. Kevin has always been that romantic guy just as Jack is, who should have it all: Wife and kids. But no, the writers messed up this one, because they were probably too busy coming up with the next Randall-centered story.

• Last, but not least, why would they bring Covid-19 and Black Lives Matter into the show? We are fed up with these topics, we suffer enough from them. All we want when watching a show is to drift off reality and enjoy a TV show which has different problems.

Like Melania Trump would say: "Give me a ... break", for realz.
