Fans Have Mixed Feelings About 'This Is Us' Series Finale

This Is Us tells the interwoven life story of a truly distinctive set of triplets, their incredibly self-sacrificing parents, and all the trials and tribulations along the way.

The show followed the stories of Jack and Rebecca Pearson, along with their children Randall, Kate, and Kevin.

The magnificent show spanned seven years across six tear-drenched seasons (I used up so many boxes of kleenex).

It focuses on the hardship of married life, the dissension that occurs between siblings, and the pain of losing the ones we love. I'm sad to see it go.

In keeping with the This Is Us motif, the final episode was deeply cathartic. However, as is the case when any beloved series comes to a close — there were some who were left wanting.

The first is a flashback memory of the Pearsons enjoying a Saturday at home. The second storyline transports the audience back to the present — with Randall, Kevin, and Kate attending their mother's funeral.

Kevin plans on continuing his non-profit work, while Kate intends on opening even more music schools for the visually impaired. As for Randall, he's set his mind to run for President.

"I can't imagine a more beautifully done series finale," wrote Twitter user @kari143. "I'm so happy the original big three played such a big part, they deserved their swan song!"

Whether you loved or hated This Is Us, there's no denying that the series had a knack for striking an emotional nerve with its audience.

Sure, the series could've undoubtedly kept going, but there's something to be said for going out on top and remaining true to the story that you set out to tell in the first place.

"#ThisIsUs finale..well honestly I was expecting more after all the hype," wrote Twitter user @carrier_tonya. "No kleenex needed for this episode. Little disappointed. Nevertheless, still an amazing series.

I'm not going to outright argue with this point. But when it comes to finales, sometimes it's best to leave the audience wanting just a little bit more.

"Life, like the finale, at the end comes down to a random collection of stories and small moments. Those small things are what we are. Not the big ones. #ThisIsUs"

"I just watched the finale of what was probably the most artistically wholesome family show I have ever watched. It reinforced beliefs like empathy, togetherness, nostalgia, ambition, and male affection. There will be no other like it. I’m sad to see it go." user livin_sober said.

"When this series started, I faithfully watched it with my Mother. The only show we watched together. She passed in 2018. She sat in this chair and I refused to sit in it for every episode, including tonight's finale. TY for letting us watch this incredible show! #ThisIsUs" user JRamzious said.

But no matter how much you loved or hated the finale, one thing we can all agree on is that This Is Us helped audiences to change the way they look and approach family life, forever.

We will miss this incredible cast!
