My mom is 58 and remembers watching NFL games with her dad. Rebecca is what...early 60's? It stands to reason that she would have watched games when she was around ten. Plus, the AFL and NFL merged in 66...likely games aired from both leagues prior to that merger.

Your timing is off - nearing 100 years old.

He really is! Out of the three sibs his character got the most depth. I'm getting a little bored with the other two.

Yes, and the young actor does a good job of being a convincing younger version of Randall. I didn't get why he played the piano and sang a song about what he did, but otherwise I adore his character.

I vote for the incredibly tedious discussions of the timeline, dates, accuracy of clothing, accuracy of TV shows and decade-specific events to either move to another thread or stop. Can't you guys just enjoy the story without getting so wrapped up in this ridiculous minutiae? I mean, who cares?!?!!?

Omg I love Randall too. He's my favorite. The younger version is SO cute.

Didn't like the piano /singing moment. Thought they could've done something better

Whoa I just searched the younger Randall to see what other shows he's been in and this came up:

Because 1. he was worried about being boring in comparison to other parents there, and 2. he had JUST learned his bio dad had been a musician whose own father had taught him to play piano - so he wanted to be a part of that.

I think he is the most talented actor out of the three playing the triplets. His comic timing is impeccable and he has a much greater range emotionally and intellectually than the other two. But then, so does his "character" given what we saw on last night's episode.

I'm totally tired of Kate's "I'm fat" storyline.

Randall is an amazing character. I find the dad (Jack?) very interesting, too.

Eh I don't care about Jack's storyline, I just like seeing his arms. I'd still jump his bones. If I could jump.

Maybe I'm just the wrong generation, but I don't understand this Jack/Milo love. He just seems like a short, scrawny guy. What's the appeal? No, I never watched Gilmore Girls.

I'm 45 and never watched "Gilmore Girls" or "Heroes" but still LOVE Milo! I usually like clean-cut men, but even with that scruff, Milo is seriously hot.
