1. Tuesday night arrives and it’s time for ‘This Is Us’!

‘This Is Us’ is a true favorite on NBC. If you love the show, there’s no doubt that you’ve been anxiously awaiting Tuesday’s arrival to find out just how ‘This Is Us’ is going to break your heart tonight.

2. You sit down to watch your favorite TV show, and think to yourself “Nope. This show will NOT make me cry tonight.”

‘This Is Us’ is one of those TV shows that is just so upsetting. Somehow though, you can’t stop watching. The drama, the tears, and even the happy moments are absolutely addicting. One minute you’re crying sad tears because your heart just breaks for the Pearsons, and the next moment the happy tears are flowing as you watch an adorable family bonding moment. It’s never ending.

3. Oh snap. Jack. And here come the tears.

Every episode you tell yourself that you will be fine this time. It’s just a show, but every time, ‘This Is Us’ reminds you how important family and the ones you love are. The tears inevitably come.

4. “This show is amazing.”

I’ve seen a lot of TV series, but I just can’t get over this one. The show is so well done and is filled with incredibly sad moments, happy moments, and downright touching moments.

5. “I’m crying again, but these might be happy tears, I’m not sure…”

Sometimes you just don’t even know how you feel while watching an episode of ‘This Is Us.’ The lives of the young Pearsons seem so cute and happy, but in your head you know what’s coming for them, and yeah, it’s pretty upsetting.

6. “Nope. Jack’s death was brought up again. These are sad tears.”

‘This Is Us’ will for sure have you in tears more often than not.

7. “I love this show so much.”

There’s no doubt that ‘This Is Us’ is an amazing show. No matter how many sad moments there are, and how many times you wished that Jack would never have died, the show never fails to remind you to appreciate life and all the ones you love in it.
