Dear Edward

Binged the first three episodes last night. Given the premise, not surprised at how sad it was. Connie Britton was great. Anyone else see it?

I think this is on Apple which I don’t have. Bummed.

I haven't yet, but after seeing the preview when I watched Shrinking, I plan to give it a try this week.

Is it being released like Shrinking, with a new episode available each week?

Very sad but loved it. Britton is one of the only naturally aged queens we have.

Yes on both counts! By the creator of This is Us, similar themes of interconnectedness, family, love and loss. Cathartic, I needed the cry. But do hope some of the characters beyond Connie Britton and the boy become more dimensional going forward.

They initially released the first three on Friday, and then looks like one additional episode released per week. I need to check out Shrinking too!

What is the premise?

plane crash and the boy is the only survivor. Sent to live with Aunt. He is deeply grieving his family, especially his older brother.

Worth a look, thanks.

Wow, I loved the book. This will probably suck.

Never heard of this nor do I care or have Apple TV.

Wow, thanks! What would we do without commenters like you?

Loved the book too, glad the show is good

Not by the creator of This Is Us. It’s by Jason Katims, who also produced Parenthood and Friday Night Lights, which explains why I really like Dear Edward. I did have to fast forward through some of the plane scenes since I absolutely hate turbulence.
