This Is Us
(2016)

So perfect until Season 5! :'( DON'T RUIN THE SHOW!!
This show has had me absolutely engrossed and emotionally invested. I lost my father and my home in a short space of time, too, and there's a lot that I resonate with. The show has addressed issues throughout the first 4 seasons like grief and abusive relationships, however, there is TOO MUCH GOING ON in season 5! We're only 4 episodes in and we're bombarded with COVID, BLM, further issues with race, eating disorders (both Kevin and Madison), anxiety, abortion...etc. These issues ARE IMPORTANT but do not need to be squashed into Season 5, especially so quickly. This has taken away from the entire authenticity of the show - JUST ADDRESS 1 OR 2 ISSUES - we don't need this many triggering topics all at once!!! (plus, nobody wants to be seeing MORE of the pandemic). I really hope the rest of Season 5 is redeemable!
