A Million Little Things

Honestly, I love this show. I loved it from the trailer. I dont understand why so many people are giving it low ratings. Honestly, this is how people talk. All the awkward poses, all the awkward writing... If you actually listen carefully to how people speak, you'll realize that this show catches that at best. I love it. Will continue to watch it. Hopefully it gets even better.

Went into this show expecting an updated version of The Big Chill. I grew up with that movie and soundtrack in our house and wanted to feel that connection my parents felt to that movie. The show is beautiful and tragic but I think the glue holding it together is James Roday. He gets it and he has "it". His scenes feel so real and grounded that I find myself wanting more of his storyline. I am excited to see how this show is able to carry over a whole season and I am hopeful Roday has some nominations coming his way.

So good! It is a drama so definitely need tissues but I expected that. So bad reviews have mentioned 13 Reasons Why and This is Us as comparisons. Yes it is a drama like This Is Us and talks about suicide like 13 Reasons Why but it is a completely different show then those in my opinion. Everything happens for a reason and we are sure to find out all the reasons throughout the season! I'm excited to keep watching!

I love almost all the characters on the show and their stories. Great acting and very interesting storylines. However I find myself fast forwarding through the Maggie scenes with all her fits and crying and they've made her personality cringeworthy.

The first episode was as promised...an emotional drama. I was tearing up almost immediately. I felt compelled to write this review because of the negative reviews I'm reading on other sites. I think this show is deeper than it seems on the surface. It does focus on a touchy subject, suicide, but it is something for which we could all use a better understanding. I think too often we are caught up in our own worlds to see what's going on around us. There are many people silently suffering and living behind a facade of fake smiles and glitter. You never know what someone is going through. Hopefully this show opens peoples eyes, hearts and lines of communication about emotions and depression.
