It's a story well-acted and well-told, its cast folding together like fingers in a glove. Read full review

If you believe in the treacle-down theory when it comes to NBC’s rip-roaring success with “This Is Us,” then you’re ready for ABC’s drama about the emotional entanglements of a group of four Boston men (Ron Livingston, Romany Malco, David Giuntoli and James Roday) feeling all the feels that bros can feel when their best bro jumps from his skyscraper office balcony in the middle of a workday, without leaving a note. A Million Little Things comes on a tad too strong in its setup. Read full review

Call it feel-bad feel-good TV, or uncomfortable comfort food. And, more often than not, Things is a little comforting. Read full review

It's a good ensemble, but the whole exercise feels too conspicuously like a throwback to a certain kind of ABC drama that, frankly, has seen better days, and which has begun yielding diminishing returns. Read full review

The soapy drama turns out to be a bit too much, and if that’s what the creators think is necessary to sustain the show, it might hint at structural flaws that a TV series can’t overcome. Read full review

Projecting male sensitivity through drama scripts seems to be a difficult task for any writer who isn’t Shonda Rhimes, but this series is an example of how not to do it, in that it links men having feelings to crisis and misery. Relationship ennui and marital bed death are low-key obstacles here, but even worse is the way the premiere capitalizes on the disconnect between the four main characters and the wives and girlfriends in their lives.

The show at once romanticizes and minimizes suicide, which is something art sometimes does. But even worse, it’s all in the service of a slog of a story about irritating and unspecial characters. ... A Million Little Things never finds its way to an authentic moment. Read full review

Wow! This show has a Televison Academy Honors Award! That's no small feat for a network show! I am truly surprised.

This show has it all. It's funny, happy, sad and I cannot wait until each week to see it progress. Everyone is so likable and the chemistry among them all is great.

Powerful and poignant and a million times better than This Is Us which is pure schmalz that is unintentionally funny in its over the top melodrama.

I didn't expect to like this but truly do consider it to be extraordinary television. The NY Times televsion critic hated this show and claimed it romanticized and essentially trivialized suicide. I couldn't disagree more. While the story shares some similarity to the movie, The Big Chill, A Million Little Things is far, far better… Expand

The collection of actors make this very watchable stuff. Sure, some of it's corny, and the mystery element might eventually wear thin, but I'm hooked for now.

Overall sporadic tone shifts contribute nothing significantly important about suicide or friendship that this series is supposed to tackle. Therefore, the series ends up to be another failed replica of This is Us. Just like HBO's Here and Now failed back in February.

With such a great cast how can this show be so boring. I couldn't even keep interested in the show it was so all over the place. The twists aren't even that good.
