Hello please do my idea
Please make top 10 Mandy Moore's songs.
When jack dies is one of the saddest episodes ever and when his wife dies too is very sad
I love how the This Is Us writers were like, "We're going to take the most devastating storylines and pair them with the most gutwrenching soundtracks possible"
The house song 😢
I only realised recently, so much of the music has piano. A nod to Rebecca, the central character through it all and music, Kate, Jack Jnr.
It’s so raw so real
All the Billy Joel, Cat Stevens... so much sad 70's folk music so perfectly timed. But when they hit us with Joni Mitchell's Circle Game 🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😫😫😫😭😭😭😭😫😫😫😫😫😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The Miguel episode destroyed me. It was so beautiful. The love between Miguel and Rebecca was so pure and wedding vows in action.
Completely agree, Miguel was such an underrated character throughout the series. Which I can understand considering the show is about Jack & Rebecca and the family they created. So I can see why he'd be cast aside as a background character a lot. But his love for Rebecca was so pure and beautiful. They truly loved one another. Rebecca was so lucky to have had two amazingly wonderful husbands that loved her fully until their last breaths.
Miguel definitely got robbed in the train scene. He was such a devoted husband and extremely patient with the big 3 who took so long to truly accept him. He deserved more than a few seconds with Rebecca at the end.
Yeah and comparing Rebacca's love for Jack and miguel is foolish because it's something so so pure that u can't compare it with stupid words
@@charleneelyce It was about the family Jack and Rebecca created. I think that the family Jack created had Miguel in it. They were best friends, who probably considered one another family.
@@dannik82O totally agree with you. He deserves more minutes than Dr. K in the train. Especially after 'Miguel' episode. Sobbing hard 😭 Love Miguel character.
Randall’s breakdown and Kevin begging for the necklace in the lawn KILLED ME!
IKR. The way Randall just fell in Kevin's arms. 😢😢 And Kevin saying ,"Can't you see, I'm in pain out here" 😭😭. Cause when you see a man crying like a baby, trust me he is in some real pain.
Can’t you see I’m in pain out here crying is a tough one and that Miguel episode gave me a whole new look on Miguel I miss this show I still watch 2 episodes a night on repeat I can’t let the show go
Not the biggest cry, but in the last episode when Beth told Rebecca what a wonderful job she did of raising Randall and now Beth has got him now.
A river of tears at that scene. As a mom, when I'm old and in my last hours it would mean the world if my son's future partner gave me that sense of comfort.
I was crying watching that scene😢. I love Beth and Rebecca chemistry. Since 'Young Beth', both of them keep giving each other love and support especially to Randall.
Not the biggest cry moment, but a moment that stuck with me was when Nicky made the Snow Globes for Kevin's twins and accidentally smashed them in the airport when they told him he couldn't board with the liquid inside. I really felt for Nicky in that moment.
I was crying watching that scene😢
He threw the figures away too I wished he didn’t I wanted to hug him he’s so mis understood too od
The show at the beginning and the middle would have you believe that Jack was the main character. But the end reveals that it was Rebecca this whole time, and that this is her story. She lost a child, and her husband devastatingly, she raised her kids during the worst period of all of their lives, she knew about Randall's birth father all along, she found love again with Miguel, she got to be there to see all her children find love get married and start their own beautiful families, and she got to be there when her late husband's brother was finally redeemed. She saw it all, she got to be there for it all, and then was finally put to rest❤ RIP Rebecca!
❤❤❤❤❤
Well now I'm crying again. Thanks for that! 😭
It was her story and she was a villain a horrible wife to Jack and a shitty mum
Jack's death never fails to bring me to tears, even four years later. The writers don't just tug on your heartstrings, they yang on them! 😭💔
I think you mean ‘yank.’ 🤣
You are right every time I watched that episode it makes me cry a lot and hit your heart a lot
This scene always gets me. Mandy Moore's acting was phenomenal.
And they were like hey let's air this right after the super bowl to make it worse lol
Yeahh it was the first time in awhile that a TV show actually made me cry
Kevin crying for the necklace hit me HARD. It was so raw, it was absolutely horrific to watch, I just wanted to hug him so much
The single line that I'm pretty sure made me cry the most in this whole series is in the episode when Jack's mom dies. When he finally has his emotional breakdown and he looks at Rebecca and says I don't have a mom anymore. I've said that exact sentence out of my mouth the first mother's day after my mom passed. Its a blink and miss it detail for some people but for me it was relatable and heavy.
My mom recently passed away so that hits hard right now
When my bonus mom told me my mom had died, all I kept saying was “but that’s my MOMMA!!!” I’m getting teary eyed just thinking about it. . .
😭
This. I can't even think about Jack saying it and breaking down without breaking down myself. The loss is just so heavy, and Milo delivered that line with so much sincerity that I could feel the weight crash down on me again.
When my mom died 6 years after my dad I asked my wife a donor question. Who am I now? Can an adult be an orphan? I still struggle with those questions two years after her death.
Despite being one of the shortest characters on this series, William left so many heart wrenching moments. One of my favorite episode is when he tries to leave in the middle of the night and ends up spending quality moment with his youngest grand daughter. Also the episode when he goes to Memphis.
Beth's eulogy for william is one of my favorite.. She never got the accolades she deserves for playing beth so perfectly
Mandy Moore should have gotten a Emmy nomination for the Episode " The Train"
When Jack died, I deeply cried for an hour. Just like I've lost my own dad, I've never cried for a show before. This is how This is us is close to my heart.
The one that tore me up is when little Jack ran off to the park. Rebecca finds him cause she remembered about his shoes. She asks him why he went and he said that's the place where his parents are happy and not fighting all the time.... gutwrenching!!!!
The scene that got me wasn't included, but should have been. It's where Randall learns about his mother and goes back to the lake house and sees her spirit and gets to say goodbye to her. Omg!! Tears for days.
Same!!!!!!!!
That was such a brilliantly done episode.
Dude that scene😮💨
Yesss came to say the same thing
It was so cleansing- a deeply personal and truly spiritual baptism and rebirth- how he screams in the river and releases all the shame, pain, confusion, and anxiety he'd been tortured by his whole life. Just like his great aunt taught his mother, and she taught Randall (through Hai.) It goes to show you that sharing love, and soul freedom with someone is always worth it, at any time- and it just might come around full circle one day, somehow, even after we have passed away.❤
Still not over that Mandy Moore was not nominated for an Emmy for the last season 🥺
UNFARE as fk, jesus
Mandy Moore was absolutely brilliant! She has grown so much as an actress! This show was so freaking good!
The scene that made me tear up the most was when the kids told Miguel they love him and appreciate everything he’s done for Rebecca. Kevin didn’t say it but he traveled to his son’s house to tell him Miguel doesn’t have much time and to not let things rest. I know Kevin acted like a rude, humongous immature little man-baby towards Miguel for years and I was happy Rebecca quietly put him in his place before naming Kate her caretaker. Miguel was nothing but good to Rebecca and the family even if they weren’t 100% welcoming.
*SPOILER* I love how when Rebecca is going through the train, she keeps saying she is waiting for someone and we assume it is Jack. You later find out it is Kate and she waits for Kate to be at her bedside. I CRIED.
Yes! I love this "plot twist"
i mean, I just read this and my eyes watered. again!!😢
I just watched this episode and I already know that she meant is Kate not Jack. Because Kevin and Randall was already there. And I'm crying ugly of this, because I was still in airport when my mom was gone :(
They didn’t tell Mandy that Milo would be on the bed for when Rebecca returned to the hospital room after the doctor tells her they lost Jack. Her reaction to seeing him lying there was genuine.
That’s what makes a heart wrenching scenes much better when emotions are genuine and the tears are real.
I just finished the series today and watching this rundown, Miguel's death still makes me tear up. Never saw that one coming. Never expected to cry out all my tears for Miguel. It was such a beautiful farewell and tribute to him.
Williams death was the most gut wrenching moment for me. Having lost my own father not to long before this episode it really shook me. I cried a lot of tears watching This is Us over the run of the series. It really was an amazing show.
As a cancer survivor Williams death absolutely tore me apart 😢
@@reelalexdagoat I am so glad you survived 🙏🏽♥️
I can relate too. I lost my father to cancer in 2021 so that episode definitely hit home
This was one of the best TV shows of all time and it never dropped in its quality. I miss it.
"The Train" is one of the greatest TV episodes of all time, in the entire history of television. Change my mind
yass girl. best of tiu, best of 2022
You'd be hard-pressed to ever encounter such an emotion-provoking show such as This Is US ever again! It was excellent from 1st to last scene! And it was so great because they kept it real and relatable throughout and the actors were magnificent making you feel their every emotion. I don't see another one being this good for a very long time.
The trains symbolism was wonderful for me. The conductor was a depiction of death. Whom would do all they could to help the soul be ready before they go. the people as they spoke appearing was them giving their peace as she can feel it. every door closes getting her closer to her inner peace. As the last door opened for her to sleep? it was her final rest so she could be given her peace.
The scene where Rebecca sang at Kate and Philip’s wedding destroyed me.
I've watched This is us as a form of therapy. Not knowing my birth father makes me very vulnerable to stories like Randall's. When I knew that Jack's death was coming soon I had to stop watching for a few months and I kept this approach for the rest of the series. I made months long breaks so I had time to process everything that was going on in this family and in myself. I am forever grateful to the whole This is us-Team, from the writers to the actors. But to no one am I so grateful as I am to Sterling K. Brown who touched me deeply in every appearance. So him telling his mom to say "hey" to Jack and she doing it made me tear up. I cried in every episode of 6 seasons. This is us is a masterpiece from beginning to end.
There's this scene where Kevin tells his nieces abojt the "Painting of life " and lemme just say Kevin had a way with words...after that scene i went to the shower and sobbed coz that was so beautiful.
the family meeting scene where ''to build a home'' was on, got me crying
Hearing Randall call William “Dad” had me bawling like a baby!!!!! And watching this countdown has me crying all over again!
The entire scene with William's last moments had me crying so much.
I watched all 6 seasons over 3 weeks. Jacks death got me ugly crying even when you knew he had gone. Kate and Toby splitting up, the moment Kevin calls Randall and tells him to come because Rebecca hasn't long and Rebeccas death just tugged at your heartstrings, especially when she lay down and Jack was beside her, he had to be didn't he and yet for a moment I wasn't sure, omg! I couldn't stop crying.
The part that always makes me weepy is the scene with Randall and the mailman. When he hears that William died and he starts to cry. That breaks me. A 2 minute scene with a background character.
Thanks for making me cry again... I already miss this show.
Me too
The "just breathe" parallels almost sent me to the tissue boxes. It was TOO much!
The most gut wrenching moments were definitely when we first met Deja and got to learn more about her, William's story, the Thanksgiving when Rebecca first asks for help, and yeah Kevin's breakdown on the lawn got me really good.
Thanks for reopening all the wounds 😭😭 as someone who lost my own father at 17, I related all too well to the 3 being 17 themselves and losing their dad.
OMG, this video made me cry all over again! 😭 But seriously, what an excellent show! I will miss it dearly. ❤️
Happy to see Beth back story as a honorable mention And the train episode was everything and my favorite episode ❤️
I don’t get emotional often watching anything, but watching The Train for the first time broke me over and over again.
It's such a hard episode to watch. It's so beautiful though. When you're done watching it, you're bawling your eyes out, but at the same time thinking "Wow, that was amazing". No other show out there like that.
The episode Jack teaches Randall to play golf because he will need in the future made me cry bad. It’s was simple, but Jack telling he would be something big and needed, really got me. But Jack’s death was tough. I cry hard for 15 minutes. And I don’t cry easily.
I think what made that scene so beautiful is how imperfect it all was. Jack wasn't a good golfer himself, and Randall wasn't either, at first. But remembering the vote of confidence that Jack gave him as a kid allowed Randall to relax and learn from the political contemporary who taught him how to golf as an adult. Sometimes we might think we've failed at teaching our kids certain things... but maybe we haven't.
The Forever Now. Most tear jerking song ever
I love how it tackles the difficult and complex issue of grief. It was hard to watch sometimes but also very therapeutic.
This list made me cry all over again!
My top moment was the last scene in which Kate was using the sticks and let out the scream. I felt that feeling and she acted as if she was me. It was powerful
Exact same for me as well. Oh I cried my heart out on that scene. She was perfect, and I felt it with her and was so touched..I don't even have the words. I miss that show. I just watched for the 1st time. Binge after only 3 weeks. 😢
Kevin running to Randall has always been my favorite. Love is Love is Love.
I think one of the most underrated episodes is the one where the trio find the truth about Nicky and then visit him. It was such a sad and shocking episode. I remember the soundtrack when they got back to the trailer and Nicky had a gun. Such a spine tingling song.
I LOVE this show SO much and love all these characters and the actors/actresses. It was THE BEST show ever, IMO! Never had dry eyes from watching every episode... 😭😭😭
Ive just finished watching this is us. To say i loved it would be an understatement! My god ive never seen a show that can keep you so invested, so emotional, have such a love hate relationship with the characters-in my case Kevin and Randall! Just outstanding. Jack's death made me ugly cry
They teach us so much we don’t even realize until they are gone. I put off watching this beautiful show because of the grief I had to process for my mother and father. It can be a difficult watch at times because of just how on point it is. It is a special show.
Everytime they played “To build a home” I could not handle it!!!
Gosh I couldn't put this on a list. There are so many moments that were gut-wrenching, beautiful, devastating, and tragic that made us all collectively sob 😢😢. I do agree with all the picks but there were the in between moments that can be just as heartbreaking or beautiful moments of hope. All time favorite show that I can watch over and over again and still feel the emotion I felt the first time watching it ❤️.
I ugly cried when grown up Jack came out singing "Memorized" on stage at the end of Season 4, Ep 1, revealing his blindness. I was shocked, sad and so proud of him all in one. What an amazing way to tell a story. THIS IS US is phenomenal
The "Number One" episode is my favorite and at the same time the one that made me cry the most. Very good picks!
I was down the block when they filmed the HM moment involving the fight between Toby and Kate in front of their house. You could hear them all the way down the block. Especially Chris Sullivan (Toby).
Very very great epic list I like it a lot very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever 💗 can you please do more videos about this is us please 🥺
All of those moments got me. But my weaknesses are the Miguel and Nicky episodes. Tears for days!
For me it’s the scene where Randall was in the hospital with his biological father who was dying refusing to let the kids see him like that.
He was always so selfless, even in his last hours.
I think every episode made me tear up or cry a bit, one moment I was hoping I’d see in here is when Randal finds out about his birth mom and he goes into the water and lets out a big scream cause his mom used to do the same when she was emotional. That episode learning about his birth mom was so beautiful. Every single episode was. I’ll never find a show like this again and this will be forever my favourite show. I used to watch it with my mom, right when I got an IUD inserted as a 17 year old she was taking care of me and suggested this show. I’m not keen on new things but she promised I would love it. And boy I do. This is us we ❤ you guys
The episode "Birth Mother" when Randell goes back to see what happened to his birth mother... I've cried probably every episode of this show, but that episode stands out to me. Also any episode with William is just pure love and tears haha !!
Super amazing video
This show was EXCELLENT!!!! Like superb!!!
I’ve heard of this series and the premise of it but never seen a single episode. Just seeing this list puts me into tears because a lot of these are just real life scenarios with many of them universal themes. Good grief I need to binge this show. Now wonder why it was was so popular and powerful.
We have an ally here! Go watch the show, bro, you'll love it :)
Same! I watched this video a month ago and didn't think I'd be engaged in it. Only to find myself bawling my eyes out at the death of a character I had never even watched before. I've since binged the entire series in the matter of a few weeks. The #1 spot on this list hit me the hardest. Gut-wrenching, but beautiful. Which is exactly how I'd describe the series in general, but specifically that penultimate episode. If you haven't watched it, it's worth watching.
Because nobody knew his heart condition somebody didn't pay attention in the Vietnam but when he enrolled into the military he cheated his way in just to be with his brother Jack was quite an amazing man
Best show ever!!
I’m ugly crying right now just remembering it all… this show really plays with your feelings but somehow always leaves you with the heart full of love for them. None of them are perfect, they all have their struggles and their demons, but it’s exactly why they come across as so real and you can relate to them and love them. (BTW, I love you all, specially Jack, Kevin, Toby, Beth, Rebecca… shit, I can’t choose. But I specially love the writers who brought them into my life, directors, producers and all the actors who made such an amazing AMAZING job)
Damn you MsMojo, I just can't stop cry!
This was the BEST story I had ever seen... but there are far too many scenes that broke me down to count... the music by Siddhartha Khosla made these moments even more heart wrenching...
This show is everything ❤
And So It Goes playing in the background only drives home the tragedy of Miguel’s death.
Still haven’t recovered from this show 😢
Same and i finished it almost two years ago 😞
Four months late, but Eight times out of ten, this show did not make me cry as it did with sooo many other people. However, there were two or three times it broke me. I don't know if I'm emotionally stronger or just not very empathetic. I took care of my mom with my family's help for about 15 years, so this show hit close to home at times. I remember one night I was having was bad, so I watched the show and broke down sobbing when we found out Deja grew up to be a social worker and adopted out that little boy, and that her dad was still there for her and so proud. (Randall was far from my favorite character, so that says a lot.) It took me months to get to the last three episodes of the series, because in the middle of all that, my mom had passed and I'd went through the grieving process, so I knew it was going to hit me hard. Cried like a baby, but now I can't remember which parts specificially, just a lot of Rebecca dying and seeing her kids at different points on the train. (I don't like Kate, but I was disappointed we didn't get to see her and her child selves on the train.) I knew of Justin Hartley from his Green Arrow on Smallville days, and I remember Milo playing Peter Petrelli on heroes. Milo gave me daddy issues (Sorry, he's hot!) and Justin freaking bulked up, omg! He's a super snack now and I'm proud of him for being so famous now. Drooling over both of them on the show and that's probably weird, but they're playing fictional characters. Waiting for them to hit their next big break, hope it is very soon. Maybe this time, they'll actually get to act together!! Also, Mandy Moore is great, I was into her CD's as a teenager. She's like the only actress I really enjoy, the rest are hot men. Glad Hollywood didn't destroy her like with other women.
Awesome 😎
A little surprised at the omission of Randall's experience with his birth mother in the lake in Louisiana.
Two moments that made me cry: when Kate went to adopt a dog, and she flashed back to her other dog. However, seeing she did indeed adopt was great. Also the pilot when we see Jack and Rebecca adopt Randall.
Como no esta en la lista cuando Toby tiene un ataque al corazon? Como me desvataron esos momentos en los que creí que Toby habia muerto 🥺
My wife loves this show…I understand why now
I cried when Jack Jr. got lost; found out that he went to the park, by himself. When Rebecca asked why he went alone, he said it was the only way to "hear" his mom and dad happy by not screaming at each other.
Omg me too. That episode tore me apart.
When Kevin reconnected with Sophie for the final time I had tears of joy for a change. Lots of sad tears, but tears of joy sometimes too.
I have cried in every single episode
🇳🇱 This is Us.... 🇮🇹 Us! 🇧🇪 I Promise You, 🇹🇷 A Family Story.
Every family needs a Randall
I never cried everrrr watching a show for the first time but this made me cry several times
Time capsules one of my favorite
I’m going to miss this show so much
One of (so many) scene I was crying is when Deja apologized to Randall in the car after she ran away the night before, and she said that Randall is her only dad. Actually, I was crying over many scenes of 'Dad moments with their daughters' in this show because I didn't had a close relationship to my father.
An emotional scene for me was when Rebecca performed at Kate's wedding. Everyone was so worried she wouldn't remember but she pulled thru.
The scene that make me cry a whole river was the one were kevin struggles to catch the plane to be at his twins birth and then he finally made it 🥲
Commented on this a year ago and still crying Again at these clips, I remembered another scene i don't think is shown here which is the one after the funeral when Rebecca takes a moment alone about to break down when the doc walks into the scene, OMG I remember just sobbing that he was there for her again.
I can't believe the list didn't include Rebecca singing at Kate's wedding! That moment when you realize the song she's singing is the theme song!
The thing I hated about the end of the series is that they basically erased the connection Rebecca had with Miguel. Once she died, she reunited with Jack (I'm assuming to spend her eternity with him), and where does that leave Miguel? Back with his first wife, who it didn't work out with?
I get you. Its the same thing writers did with Jack and Rose in Titanic. Rose married someone else after Jack's passing.
Plus, I'd argue, Rebecca's marriage to Miguel was one of true love. Jack is impulsive and destroyed Rebecca's chances of reigniting her singing career. Miguel was supportive and stood up for Rebecca when his kids were unkind. And dealt calmly with the Pearson kids. They lifted each other up.
I get where you coming from... but honestly I really wanted them to reunite (Jack and Bec). The entire story was about them after all, their union led to "This is us". Even Miguel knew that in as much as he is loved and he loves Rebecca, it has always been Jack.
@@nontomabaso5525 but it made me so sad that when she saw him on the train he said to her that she was always the one, and she looked confused.
I agree but we all knew it was Rebecca + Jack and Miguel knew his place and was fine with it, was happy with it. He loved Jack too ❤
This show is heartbreaking. But the relationship between the siblings is so incredibly strong and can hardly be found in reality, right????
But, in reality there are many siblings relationship that strong and close to each other.
I'm so glad they never had Rebecca call Miguel "Jack" on accident or forget her love to Miguel... that would have devastated me.
A scene that made us cry the most was (the announcement of Deja's pregnancy to Randall. Knowing that it was a boy and that he would be named William both breaks and heals our hearts simultaneously !
I still miss this show.
Makes me so sad 😢
I just finished this series on Netflix today, Super Bowl Sunday 2024. I CANNOT stop crying. What a wonderfully written and acted story. Its made me feel so alone. All I ever wanted as a kid was a big happy family when I grew up. My mother had terrible mental illness and my dad was a womanizer and alcoholic, bit of a rage thing too, so yes, some domestic violence there. I got out as soon as I could but didn't realize that's what I was doing, even went so far as to go to another country. Had a bad marriage that ended in divorce, 2 beautiful daughters but sadly, one suicide. I have failed every single big thing in my life, every relationship. I'm older now and feel so alone. I've never gone back in 48 years. So, a warning about watching this if you are alone. Its just made me feel like I'm living each day, same as the one before with no real meaning because its the people in your life that make it something worth living.
The piercings really treated her and tried to understand her Deja and same for her she really fell for them as a family and that's good and grateful and they're so blessed that they got to love each other not all Foster families have that outcome though unfortunately
The moment jack said i don’t have mom any more in flash back seen. Made cey
