This is us...

My wife has been begging me to watch this show for months. She says she sees me in the dad Jack, and she knew that much of the show would speak to me...she's already alluded to Memphis being featured in the show, a place I dearly love and lived for four years in Med school (please don't ruin it for me). Well, the kids are spending spring break with the grandparents so for the last few nights it's just been the two of us. I obliged watching the pilot for "This is Us" Sat night and we've been watching a few episodes each night since then, yeah I got hooked. Such a well done show...it does have its flaws, but I'm really enjoying it thus far.
