[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I finally watched the episode today. As others have said, Kate would constantly criticize Toby for the way he parented the children. Toby would try to make improvements. But what about Kate? She would break down when Toby criticized her. She would never try to make improvements to her own life. She acted as if she didn't think she need to make any improvements/do anything to save the marriage. It was all on Toby to make the changes.

Her character really did get worse as the show went on. There was no personal growth from her at all.

[b]And Philip - yeah, we needed to see more back story as to what ignited that spark with Kate. From what I remember of his personality in previous seasons, he was kind of a jerk. But to now have him love Kate? Doesn't ring true at all.[/b][/quote]

Phillip was shown as being pretty snarky and dismissive of Kate when she first started working at the school.  Granted, I now see we're supposed to realized his "crusty" exterior was just a layer of protection over the traumatic loss of his wife, but still.  As for the first wife,[b] couldn't the writers simply have said she left him due to the IVF issue - and not that she was then hit by a drunk driver?  Honestly, not everything has to be so tragic and dramatic. [/b] [/quote]

OMG, so true! Didn't Coco Chanel famously advise to get fully dressed to go out, then take off one piece of jewelry? This Is Us writers should write their scripts, then go back and remove one tragic event.[/quote]

Hahahah!!! EXACTLY this! One step (or maybe 3) over the line. To the point where I thought he was making it up to prove some other point.

I also thought, then Kate can't die because he can't lose 2 wives, right? [/quote]
