Finally finished watching this painfully long show
I found this show to be a bit unrealistic but what sunk it for me was the length and the jumping between the past, present and future. It was too much at times, so much so I fast forwarded thru parts that seemed superfluous.
Randall seemed to be the best of them, and the two bio children were clueless for just about their whole lives.
Kevin sleeping with and getting Maddy pg with twins was just annoying and over the top. Him ending up with Sophie after all was plain silly tying of loose ends. But I found it interesting that even from a kid, he didn't know where he fit in. I have a brother like that, so as a character it was believable that he should be lost as an adult.
Don't get me started on Kate. Her being unable to stick to a diet and in the end accepting herself in the unhealthy state she was in, well I thought she should've been written a better ending.
I thought Mandy Moore and Milo Ventimiglia were great in their characters. Jon Huertas, on the other hand, we'll he didn't get much character development as Miguel. I didn't buy Rebecca marrying him after Jack died. It was awkward and not believable to me.
They could've used some of the space taken by those boring long memories of Jack's and Rebecca's to build up the kids' characters.
I'm glad I finished it, anyway. I wouldn't watch it again, though. Too time-consuming.
