This Is Us

If you want a drama that takes its characters as seriously as its plot, This Is Us is available in Australia on Disney Plus, and in the US on Hulu and fuboTV right now. With 6 seasons behind it, the show has had time to find its rhythm and keep it. An 8/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. Milo Ventimiglia's performance alone is worth the time investment. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Disney Plus.

There is a reason This Is Us keeps coming up in conversation. This Is Us trusts its audience to sit with discomfort instead of resolving it too quickly. Follows the lives and families of three adults living and growing up in the United States of America in present and past times. As their paths cross and their life stories intertwine in curious ways, we find that several of them share the same birthday - and so much more than anyone would expect. The performances from Milo Ventimiglia and Mandy Moore give it more weight than the premise alone would suggest. The series ran for 6 seasons (2016–2022), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly. What elevates This Is Us is a refusal to let any character off the hook too easily. The consistency throughout is what elevates it — not every moment is the best, but none of them are a reason to stop watching.

Viewers drawn to character-driven storytelling will find plenty to sit with in This Is Us. Fans of Olive Kitteridge will recognise the sensibility here immediately. The 6-season run rewards the patience it asks of you. Milo Ventimiglia anchors a cast that never overplays its hand. The kind of drama that stays with you well after the finale.

This Is Us wrapped up in 2022, created by Dan Fogelman — and 6 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
