Is This The Last Episode Of This Is Us

Okay, let's talk about This Is Us. Remember that show? The one that made everyone cry into their tissues every week?

Did it, like, end five years ago? Or is my memory just completely shot?

Hear Me Out: Maybe It Should Have Ended Sooner

I know, I know. Unpopular opinion alert! But seriously, wasn't there a point where we were all just... done?

Like, we got the flashbacks. We got the family drama. We really got the emotional manipulation.

Don't get me wrong, I loved Milo Ventimiglia. Who didn't? And Mandy Moore was amazing, always.

But after a while, every episode felt like a carefully constructed recipe for tears. Tears I willingly cried, sure. But still!

The Timeline Got... Confusing

Seriously, trying to keep track of the different timelines was like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded.

Was Jack alive? Dead? Was Rebecca young? Old? Was Kevin still searching for love? (Spoiler: He probably was.)

My brain hurt just trying to remember who was dating who in what year.

And then there were the new characters, the long-lost relatives, the surprising connections... It was a lot! Maybe too much?

The Plot Twists Were a Little Much

This Is Us loved a good plot twist. Sometimes, a little too much love.

It got to the point where I was expecting everyone to have a secret twin or a previously unknown past life.

Like, okay, we get it. Life is unpredictable. But maybe dial it back a notch, writers?

It’s like they had a giant plot twist generator and just kept cranking it out every episode. - My Slightly Cynical Take

Did We Need Seven Seasons?

Seven seasons felt like a long time to follow the Pearson family.

Especially when, let's be honest, a lot of the drama felt manufactured.

Could they have wrapped things up in, say, five seasons? Maybe even four?

The Finale Was... Fine

The finale was emotional, sure. But did it really resolve anything? Or did it just leave us with more questions and a renewed sense of existential dread?

I felt like I had just run a marathon and all I got was a lukewarm glass of water.

Maybe my expectations were too high. Maybe I was just emotionally exhausted from all the crying.

But I kind of wanted more. More closure. More happy endings. More something!

Maybe It's Just Me

Look, I know This Is Us was a cultural phenomenon. People loved it. People are still talking about it.

And that's great! I'm happy for them. I really am.

But for me, the show peaked somewhere around season three. After that, it felt like it was just trying too hard.

So, yeah, maybe it should have been the last episode a little earlier. Or maybe I'm just a heartless monster. Either way, I said what I said!
