"This Is Us" returns from a it's holiday hiatus and returns with one of the most overwhelming emotional episodes of the season. But just one thing: Stay away from the Parson's No Fly Zone.
After being arrested and placed in a rehab center, Kevin and the family (mainly Kate, Rebecca and Randall) talked into a therapy session about Kevin's addiction, where true feelings come out. Kevin comes out to Rebecca of how she favors Randall while Jack favors Kate growing up. Meanwhile, Miguel, Beth and Toby have their therapy session about living with the Parsons.
"The Fifth Wheel" comes in strong from start to finish with excellent writing. If you are have been watching this season, you could instantly understand the meaning of the title for the episode. The performances from the cast from Justin Hartley and Mandy Moore was outstanding with full emotional driven. Not to mention that Brown and Metz gave a great performance to, mostly coming during the therapy session that really stood out from the episode.
I'd very much enjoyed this episode from start to finished. The performances from Hartley and Moore deserve award nominations for this episode, with their performance from the therapy session to the end of the episode of why Kevin really doesn't get the love or extra attention that Kate and Randall gotten. The writing was outstanding that should be considered for award consideration.
Overall, I give this episode a 9.5/10.
You can catch This Is Us Tuesdays at 9/8c on NBC.
