This Is Us (from "Crazy, Stupid, Love" screenwriter Dan Fogelman) methodically weaves four seemingly disparate stories into a believable and emotional whole through tiny telling details, relatable moments, and conversations and confrontations that are funny, tender or painful, or all three at once.
This Is Us is what TV people refer to (usually more in delusional wishfulness than real belief) as "relatable," meaning that you'll recognize the characters and their quandaries and triumphs from your own life.

One of the finest TV series ever to be produced. Superb acting by everyone involved. The movement back and forth through the timeline just worked. So many times the dialogue just moved me. Can’t recommend it highly enough.
Report
Wile I’d like to see another few episodes to make sure, there’s something comfortably gooey right away about This Is Us, reminding us once more that amid all the high-functioning detectives, emergency-rescue personnel and secret-agent superheroes covered in cryptic tattoos, there are very few network dramas aimed at viewers who are simply interested in everyday people and how they feel.
This Is Us has settled on an effective solution: It has made characters who are flawed and surprising, and therefore relatably human.
Saccharine by jaded prime-time standards, this show still just might be the kind of sentiment lots of viewers crave at the moment.
This Is Us brims with some mighty acting. ... Creator Dan Fogelman’s script, however, takes the sting out of some major moments with some minor humor. There’s a huge twist in the final moments tonight that might have you rethinking everything you’ve watched, or might have you feeling like you’ve been played.
It’s deceptively difficult to build a surprising and complete story in just 40 minutes with so many characters. Yet This Is Us manages to both craft an intimate series of portraits and stitch them together. ... But at the same time, waves of cloying sentiment threaten to submerge everything.
This is an excellent series that talks about 3 triplet brothers but one is black and the other two are white and one is a fat woman and the other boy is strong and entertains you as the years go by and the things in their lives
