.AmyTVGal on the quiet and contemplative ThisIsUs series finale, and its reflections of her own life
wrapped up its six season run by giving viewers closure and one final emotional catharsis. The series finale, entitled “Us,” was written by series creator Dan Fogelman and directed by executive producer Ken Olin. Viewers were with the Pearsons on the day of Rebecca’s funeral and on one of the lazy Saturdays of their childhood.has always been such an apt title for the drama because the series reflected what so many of its viewers experience—albeit with better hair, clothes, and make-up.
As my own children approach the end of the school year and the flurry of activities , part of me longs for the more relaxed days of summer. Any parent will tell you that the COVID of it all has made this school year particularly exhausting. But at the same time, I don’t want to wish time away. I know once the school year ends that means, in three months’ time, my children move up a grade, getting older and moving one step closer to becoming adults of their own.
The idea that our lives go on even after our loved ones leave us is an adjustment. “Now she’s gone and yet the birds chirp on. I notice that I’m hungry. Five minutes ago I thought about work. Tomorrow I’ll shower. It just feels so pointless. Is that too depressing?” Randall wonders. It is depressing. But I’m pretty sure anyone who has ever experienced the loss of a loved one has felt that same way.
