  • And I also know why.

    This show represents everything that I hope to achieve in my life. I want to have a family, I want to have kids, I want to have grandchildren.

    It's not that there isn't any of that in other shows, but this show is something special. I can't really explain it, but I have teared up two or three times within the first couple of episodes.

    Before this show I would've said its a rare thing for me to tear up, but I'm sure by the time I've caught up its gonna be completely normal.

    Love this show to death so far.

    So in this episode we get to know how all the Thanksgiving traditions of the family happened. A nice story. I especially liked the present Thanksgiving. William telling what it feels like to be dying was greatly written and a great moment. The finale was also great and dramatic where Randall tells that he found out that Rebecca knew William and kept him from Randall all his life. So many emotions from everyone and one can really understand them.

    This is such a gut wrenching episode. I guess for many people, Thanksgiving is a time of confrontation and anger--where people come with their political views and their angst and ruin the whole thing. I can honestly say that I've never experience that because I try not to hang out with people, even relatives, under those circumstances. Here we have a family that has been through all kinds of pain. We have the morbidly obese woman and her insensitive self centered, boyfriend. We have the actor with his issues and a woman who is filled with her own stuff. Then there is the secret that is revealed after 35 years. What is rather well done is the flashback where the traditions of this thanksgiving began. Randall is now going to have to confront the realities. When you're in pain, you strike out. This Thanksgiving is now a weight over everyone with issues ahead. Really well done and painful to view.
