+1. I was really hoping for some flash forwards, but I wonder if they didn't want to lock themselves into certain facts if there happens to be a spinoff or revival.

How old was she when diagnosed with Alzheimer’s?


2033 sounds so far away but it’s only 11 years away.

That’s only happened hundreds of thousands of times in real life over the past couple of years.


You mean because of Covid? Ummm... yeah. But Covid is long gone in "This is Us"-land. They didn't delay her memorial for the sake of covid. And It didn't look like Deja was even showing at all.... no implication that they delayed the memorial service for any reason. So, how is Deja suddenly pregnant with an at-home test and days later she knows the sex, but doesn't look the least bit pregnant?


There’s a test called sneakpeak that tells you the gender at like 6 weeks. Super popular judging by a Facebook due date group I’m in. People are learning really early these days.


And think of how early they’ll know in 2033!!


I just thought it was weird that she found out via email. Who finds out the gender via email?


LOL, guess they didn’t think that one through.

So what do we want from the episode:

-I want a Deja and Malik wedding scene/image;
-Kate having literally any singular interaction with her daughter;
-Nicky's goodbye to Rebecca/Jack's acknowledgement (in heaven, where he's dead);
-Tess' goodbye to Rebecca;
-A montage of the Big Three as old people.


This was my post.

I liked the message of this episode but I really, really, really have an issue with the almost total erasure of Tess and Annie. And Randall being so happy to have a grand SON - puke. And Deja is sort of reduced to just being a vessel for Randall's grandson - also puke.

Sour ending for me.


I agree with the erasure of Tess and Annie being bizarre and wrong. But the idea of Randall having a grandson? Of *course* he’s thrilled! And would be if it was a girl, as well. I have two boys whom I dearly love - but was on cloud nine when we found out our last child was a girl. It’s wonderful to have boys AND girls and there was no sinister message there.



How did Deja already know she was having a BOY if she just found out she was pregnant like 3-7 days ago?????

Are we supposed to believe they put Rebecca's body on ice for a couple of months? Or they delayed the memorial service for several months after she died?

DID NOT MAKE SENSE THAT DEJA JUST FOUND OUT SHE WAS PREGNANT, and ALREADY KNOWS SHE's HAVING A BOY.


I thought it was weird too but I also recognize it’s a tv show so I just let it slide.


LOUDER for the folks in the back who insist on analyzing every detail and taking all the joy out of this show.

There was no joy in this final episode.


Ah, Literal Larla is in the house!

You mean arguing over the number of gray hairs in Randall's head vs the lighting wasn't fun?

Me. He was the worst character IMO. grated me how they worshipped him.



He was kind of flat and dull, and their constant "babe"ing each other wore thin. In the end, I preferred Miguel.


100% yes!

I never understood why Jack was such a "saint." And physically and vocally, he's not my cup of tea. Miguel was there for Rebecca when she had no one else. I need more Miguel in my tv life.


Was he a saint or that’s just how they want to remember him?


DP. I see him through the kids' memories. Growing up, they never knew he was once an alcoholic. They only knew him as a fabulous, attentive father. So that's of course how they'll remember him.
