Anybody still tuning in to This is Us?

I am disappointed in the season,but still watching.

I think I have good idea about why that man is the one by "her" bedside.

I am trying to avoid spoilers in case anyone who cares hasn't seen it yet.

What's your theory? You can PM if you don't want to discuss it here.

I like some of the issues they are tackling and it's making my husband question some things about our life. Like WHERE is the compromise or am I the only one who bends?

I'm bored by the Kevin wanting kids issue. I don't feel like he really thinks Zoe is THE one. I hope they really move that along.

Not a spoiler ,just my own theory

Whatever Rebecca's mental state is,she obviously doesn't recognize people because Russell had to tell her who he was.
I think she has been in a coma and woke up when Kevin brought Nicky to see her.She thinks Nicky is Jack.That is why he sits by her bedside.

There has to be a reason why they showed the auto accident in this episode. There may be a tie in to the first head injury and the reason for her coma.

The accident happened because she reached for a peach Kate wanted.
Kate feels guilt about her father and may also have guilt about Kate's accident.

I think Kate is not shown yet in the future scene because hopefully the actress will lose weight before the last season.

the coma thing is interesting. And I was wondering about this car accident too, like WHY now would they choose to add this in the mix? You could be onto something!

In these times I really do not want to get sucked in to a tv show that makes me cry
