Ep. 16: "Three Sentences" (113) and Three Birthdays: The Princess Bride, Madonna, and a Magician

[@jennifergonzales8124]

Toby mouthing words with Randall's voice at the end - makes me laugh every time 😅

[@mariamelchiore1908]

Me too!

[@ozemerald]

Same. They should reverse it sometime, Sterling mouthing Chris's voice.

[@brittanycarris4651]

I never had watched this show and decided to binge it while on maternity leave. This show on postpartum hormones may not have been the move 😅 but I love it

[@panda_shark]

Omg I can only imagine lol

[@tbyksl]

İ open that show when there is something stuck in my eye and i need to cry it out. Def.not a good idea to watch it pp

[@montoriabryan167]

😂😂 I would’ve been a mess

[@donnadaniel5385]

When This is Us aired I never watched it. I had no interest in a sappy, sad, drama series. Fast forward to last month. My daughter and sister were talking about the show and watching the series for the second time. They both love it and told me I have to watch. My husband and I started binge watching. From the first episode I.WAS.HOOKED!!! I love all the characters. I love all the guest stars. I love the writing. I love the way the stories unfold every episode. Honestly, everyone who watches and enjoys the show needs to watch the series at least twice simply because there are details I probably overlooked the first time around. This podcast is great. I enjoy hearing the behind the scenes stories. You all seem to really like each other as well. 😊

[@nativesun7661]

Yeah there was nothing sappy about it. As you found out. Just a brilliantly written, cast and acted reflection on life.

[@calico_mojo]

Chrissy Metz was so good in the drumming scene, them discussing it here made me cry all over again. Such a powerful piece of storytelling.

[@BigThreeChiu]

it broke me when I first watched it years ago

[@BigThreeChiu]

don't think we could ever go back to watching the show without the emotional support from this podcast. Feels like the after show when the show was still airing.

[@sarahadenardo2109]

This may be my favorite episode of season 1, such a masterpiece! The snapshot of Jack’s funeral at the end is bone chilling

[@DanielaAvery]

I binged watched it in 2 weeks of watching every night. It was so good I could not stop. I loved the show so much I drove my family crazy with talking about it. I feel that I missed a lot by doing it. I now watch each episode on the day of the pod cast so that I can follow along. I love taking my time and enjoying the acting, the writing and each story line. Thank you for this amazing show.

[@cheri7054]

Kate and that drumming scene was so heartbreaking. It's like all her childhood memories and then Jack memories. Very sad

[@aromany]

I love Toby!! The actor i mean, he's sooo much fun and his frankness is really refreshing

[@juliana22]

I agree with Mandy. Binge watch instead of one episode per week with breaks in between hits totally different. I binge watch the show a few months ago and It was brutal, very emotional and it took a toll on me. The experience is diferent. You noticed more characters traits that you missed before. It's quite the experience. I had already watched the show when it was on air, so I knew everything but you still forget or miss a few things here and there. And the feels... ufff. For all the newbies binge watching for the first time, brace yourselves and go ahead and by tons of tissues.

[@cheri7054]

The thing you forget is how funny the kids are when they ask for a family meeting. Kevin's character cracks me up

[@JordanLeigh]

28:00 the story about the back window of the car almost made me choke on my lunch because I was laughing SO HARD

[@MsShortstuff333]

Chris's imitation of the soft spoken director was hilarious!

[@tonyytime8200]

This show means so much to me and helped me through so much. I started watching this show with my mom when it first came out and we loved it so much and cried almost every episode together… she died before the last season came out so when I finished the show by myself I was completely shattered. Rebecca reminded me so much of my mom.

[@beatrizlopez2733]

I loved that young Kevin says “I can’t, I lover her”

[@juliathrush4401]

When Sterling says "I have 5 years left," that is so Jack.❤ I started to do the rewatch week by week, but then I have had this month off work and started binging. It is a different experience completely, but the details are fresh and so I am picking up soooooo much more this time around. It's true there is a lot of information, but that also means that things get forgotten from episode to episode and season to season. It is insane how many times I have said, "I completely forgot about that!"

[@kalaaa_]

I watched the show this summer in a week and one day, it was so hard i cried all day every day but i could not stopped watching. It was so therapeutic I didnt want to forget any minor detail so i just kept going and t was amazing... i binge watched for the freshness of information in my mind! Love u guyssssss

[@yldnierfiol]

This trio is soooo goood! Love³ this podcast. Always looking forward to rewatch the episode then proceeds to watch and listen this YT podcast right away!

[@healingjems]

I wasn't emotionally ready to handle this series in 2016 and I steered clear. Until recently, and I just finished the final episode last night. What a truly beautiful, authentic, gut-wrenching piece of storytelling. There were so many similarities and reflections (for me personally), which helped me so much with my grieving/healing process. The Pearson's were the family I needed right now. ❤ "When the world puts something that obvious in front of you, you don't just walk away."

[@shaneadockery8508]

Mandy: "Date the Good Guys" 🗣 HOT TAKE!

[@erinpollock7747]

You all are just such a joy to re-experience one of the greatest of all time appointment TV shows. This podcast has become appointment internet for me. ❤️

[@jecka1982]

Oh I had to binge this show. I only watched it 8 months ago or so and could not stop watching. I was addicted and loved it! The way each episode ended I never would have been able to wait a week! So many questions I wanted answered!

[@elodie_k221b]

I love hearing your personal stories. Thank you so much for sharing them!

[@luckyvanwie138711]

I absolutely adore this. This Is Us moved me. Thank you for making this!

[@terryhaynie9340]

I am such a fan of you lovely people. ❤️❤️

[@xxangeleyes40xx]

I'm loving watching the show along with you. I'm getting so much from the podcast and also find myself smiling just from the connection between you all. Thank you xx

[@Elleenn_95]

28:01 I’ve never laughed so much in my entire life. I’ve replayed this so many times, it’s iconic 😂

[@PeaceLovePaperbacks]

Mandy got my entire pov of this episode its the start of the big three breaking apart into their own people.

[@lavernemason6904]

I'm glad someone else mentioned the part where the drum instructor was like, "Are you okay?" I mean, duh...no! LOL

[@MB-hb4ue]

I was in the middle of a rewatch and have paused it to rewatch again with guys. This makes me so happy and all of you are truly amazing.

[@juliana22]

I love this episode. Kevin and Sophie 4e❤.

[@LizaJane761]

Another wonderful podcast! Jack is such a good dad for trying to help his baby girl. Randall & William ❤❤❤ Kate in the drum scene is so powerful! Kevin about Sophie, awwww. Then learning they were married before….. I love everything you guys talk about you make me smile and laugh. You’re all just so wonderful!!!

[@SydneyKong]

I love binging. I’m obsessively watching the show

[@moniquelozano-k4t]

Okay, you guys got my like with the end credit of Chris mouthing words, but Sterling's voice speaking hahaha you guys are great! This tired, busy mama needed that laugh this morning.😊

[@patriceharris1431]

I had thought they were going to actually watch with viewers and comment. But I really enjoy this podcast. It's almost appointment tv for me.

[@sophiabbrady]

Love this podcast! It’s gotten me rewatching :)

[@angd4268]

Aaron Nevile and Linda Ronstadt. Amazing Song!!! And you're right, I'm taking this show again one episode at a time week by week with ya'll. This time it's such a roller coaster. Hitting so much harder.

[@diamondbed86]

This podcast is great. I’ve been rewatching the series. You all were so wonderful in it.

[@Daniellesanchezg]

I loved this show and now love this podcast so much!! Can’t wait to see Milo on in the future ❤

[@anja4740]

31:35 oh I'm looking for a good guy . I'm hoping there are some out there & one who is matching with me. Wish me luck ❤ ! Thank you for this awesome podcast. Looking forward to it every week.

[@bluejenny26]

One of my most favorite episodes followed by the most amazing podcast episode!! ❤ love you guys for doing this rewatch podcast, all of your personalities and humor blend so well together

[@SydneyKong]

I watched multiple episodes last night. It’s soooo gooooddd

[@Estadisponibleparami]

What a great summer re-watching This is us and whatching you guys in this podcast 😌

[@HeatherArsenault-c9l]

I love this podcast! The first thing I listen to on Tuesday Mornings! I was thinking about it last night and reciting "That Was Us was filmed at The Crow..." the credits is one of my favorite parts. I still think Mandy needs to mouth it also.. it would be hilarious!

[@SorichSala]

Hello Family! Happy Tuesday 😁 I loved this episode,and as you guys say, starting to see the different personalities of the big three.

[@allisavalencia7351]

I keep saying I’m gonna start rewatching with you guys but I haven’t yet, that’s it I’m doing it bc when y’all recalled today episodes it’s one of my favs of season 1 so I am bout to start my weekly watching today (I’ve already finished it before)

[@QMW11]

Gahhhh.......I always rewatch the episode before I watch the pod which means i always come into this episode with tears in my eyes. Every episode makes me cry. Gosh this show is so special

[@hannysitio3173]

Here I am rewatching with you, however I went ahead and now on the 2nd season 😅

[@stephaniecoles2138]

Well, I guess I’m a little crazy because after watching the show initially in real time I have binged it over and over. It is my happy place, a lot of people don’t understand that.

[@lizstephenson2047]

Love this Podcast. The back story of making the show is very interesting.

[@cassandreblanchette8519]

love this podcast

[@SydneyKong]

“Is that?” “It is” “We all have the same family” LMAOOOO AHAHAHAHAAHAH

[@YvetteVB]

Love the podcast ! Bring more guest actors please ❤

[@monicaberkman8891]

first time seeing you on youtube after listening to the podcast since the beginning-- - it was fun to see your expressions! And of course all the behind the scenes stories are a gift. Husband and I are rewatching the show and are amazed at how we're surprised, moved and are laughing all over again.

[@giovanafischer8354]

Emotional 💛

[@TheSinlessAssassin]

Such a good point about binging this show. You just can't. I tried, but I always need 10-20 minutes to compose myself and process what I just learned before moving on to the next episode.

[@lolak3053]

Interesting. Here the platform just plays the next one before the end of the score

[@noz1093]

Love from istanbul ❤

[@saphirengine]

I always forget that the Big Three’s birthday is also Jack’s birthday

[@lstarsabb]

I think because Jack is always focus on the kids having great birthdays and doesn’t mention it. Even when the triplets were being born. He mentioned the babies being born on his birthday like “ that will be cool if they were born on my birthday” but he wasn’t fixated on the idea. He cared more about having 3 healthy birthdays.

[@TheMarccast]

So amazing!!! ❤

[@SydneyKong]

“3 separate parties in the same house” LMAOOO AHAHAH

[@stephaniecoles2138]

To these young parents from a parent of adults, it’s never over.

[@carolschefflin4935]

I’m 68 years old from Brooklyn and chocolate egg creams are the best! Mandy Moore you need to try one ! I still drink them when I go to a diner! I’m with William on this one

[@SydneyKong]

I want to see the reaction of episode 5 of this is us because when Randall went to go to Kevin’s hotel suite it was sooo funnnyyy

[@cheri7054]

Would like more back stories about each episode.

[@Builtfromweights]

Will you ever have any of the "kid" actors on

[@lavernemason6904]

Oh...and I'm a binge watcher after being an "every week live appointment" watcher.

[@SydneyKong]

“You now legally have to feed them” LMAOOO AHAHAAHA

[@Jerseygal30]

Egg creams are delicious. You can get them in a lot of ice cream parlors. It's just like a chocolate ice cream soda without the ice cream. I make them at home every once in a while.

[@andersongusmao2871]

Mais algum brasileiro assistindo esse podcast? 🥰

[@cheri7054]

In the midwest we don't have cold seats we have bun warmers

[@pattytindall187]

There’s a day where you put your kids down and never pick them up again…😢

[@cheri7054]

The thing about the TIU kids is that the writers also thought about what a kid would say rather then using adult words. The writers knew how kids spoke and used it to be believable

[@SydneyKong]

“I got things together” LMAOOO AHAHAHAAH

[@SydneyKong]

“Played a sold out stadium” LMAOOO AHAHAHAHAH

[@KristenCenci]

Curious to know who took the Kevin painting? As soon as the question about the egg cream came up I was you don’t want to know.

[@GABRIELACMORAES]

❤

[@cheri7054]

Kevin the kid is acting the Princess Bride and becomes an actor as an adult. Interesting

[@kokopelligirltam]

Tell us more about the car… Chris got the wagoner? How much? Do you still have it?

[@cheri7054]

Kate sadly really didn't have true friends which is sad

[@goldenchick85]

As a Sloane fan, this episode made me so mad, lol

[@cheri7054]

Kate was born heavy. It's in her jeans. This is why obsess people can't lose the weight no matter how much therapy

[@cheri7054]

Toby and Katte having a dog wasn't even in this episode. Why bring it up Chris

[@cheri7054]

I don't care what the actors did on their 13th Chris

[@cheri7054]

Chris you just had to go on and on about your 13th b-day. I don't care. Talk about TIU please

[@cheri7054]

Toby's character annoyed me on TIU and now as Chris annoys me as well

[@cheri7054]

I hated Toby's hair. I kept saying just shave that piece in the front off. Youu're going bald. Just shave it off

[@TheDeRaye]

The show is emotional enough for me, but now you guys talking about kid's growing up so fast! 🥲Thanks! lol

[@terryhaynie9340]

I am such a fan of you lovely people. ❤️❤️
