The show premiered on NBC at 10pm today. Anybody else watch it? Loved it? Liked it? Hated it? Thoughts? I loved it! I didn't see the end coming! I can't wait for next week's episode. |

Haven't watched it yet. Will watch tonight on Hulu. There was a lot of buzz about it this morning on the radio. I hope it is as good as portrayed. I have been looking for something "different." I have enough of the someone gets killed so we need to investigate shows.

Loved it. I won't get into any details but the last few minutes define the whole show. The ending was amazing. I can't wait to see more episodes.

I had every intention of seeing this last night, but scored a last-minute concert ticket. will have to catch on Hulu or somewhere. (what's free?)
oh, and I read something this morning about the spoiler. I think that's a pretty cool twist. let's see where the writers take it!

I watched this last night. I really enjoyed it. I have been looking for a show like this since Parenthood ended.

So after the episode ended I realized that I am not as intelligent as I thought I was. I couldn't figure out who was who to whom until I read the explanation on-line.
I'll watch it for sure.

I wonder if we will ever see an older version of the parents (Mandy Moore & the other guy) or if they are just going to stick to their lives as young parents raising the three kids. I loved how they tied it all together at the end.

wait, what?? why is it not on next week?
and I think binge watching might have been the better idea. I can't remember the last time I was this into a new show.

I'll be watching tonight when I get home.
It just started why would they already take a break? Unless it's more election BS being aired. |

My main question is - What happened to the dad? |

Divorced (bc he didn't stop drinking) or died. No big deal.... well, clearly. but at what point did that happen? do the triplets remember dad? they do enough for the big three pep talk, so there's that. |

I'm so hooked on this show. I've been making DH watch it with me, and even he's hooked. So far, I like all the twists in the plot, but I have to keep shushing my DH b/c he likes to talk and then I can't hear and then I miss things.  |

I loved the phone conversation between the 3 of them. I didn't see the twist at the end. I hope he died, I can't imagine losing my wife to my best friend.

I didn't even realize it was the best friend. I thought it was a transgender woman bc I thought I head Randal say "Hello Abigail" I like the show, but didn't think 2nd episode had any questions or twists. Does it remind anyone of Parenthood? |

LOL! I believe she said "hello Miguel."
I like how there seems to be something new at the end of each show. So far the storyline is unraveling very nicely. It keeps me wanting more at the end of each episode (well, there have only be two so hopefully this will continue). I am bummed it isn't on next week - WTH?
It does remind me a little of Parenthood. I LOVED Parenthood. I never saw it when it was actually on television but I binge watched in on Netflix.

I watched the 1st episode because of the hype. I did like it. I kind of guessed the twist at the end about 3/4th's of the way through. 
I haven't watched this weeks yet though.

I watched the 2nd episode last night. I had been wondering all the way through what had happened to the parents and then the end happened!
Mom and Miguel? WOW
So now I am wondering what happened to Dad?
Yep I think I am hooked.

I am so loving this show. I'm not sure about Toby though. I can't tell if he is genuine. I love Shakespeare now too. Randall's is definitely the best story IMO.

Randall is definitely the most interesting of all the characters. Is Toby the one dating Kate? If so I kind of like him...at least so far. |
