This is us (the tv show)... So Far
This is us tv poster. TV Guide's photo. Not mine.

First seasons of shows tend to be annoying. Some have only have less than ten episodes. Some have the story lines that seem way to rushed. Sometimes shows don't make it passed the first season, and are extremely lucky if they do. I''m a tv show junkie. I also typically only watch shows that are off the air. I don't always have time to watch a weekly show. I prefer to binge. I tend to watch way too many shows, so if a new show catches my eye, than that's a huge deal.This is us is an amazing show so far. There are only a total of eight episodes so far, but I'm very intrigued by the show. The premise of the show is that its a family love story being told through as span of different time periods. The family's past is being shown while they are living their present lives. I don't wanna spoil the show, but hope I encourage readers to watch the show.

Disclaimer: There should be no spoilers in this article. I don't own any of the photos or gifs. This article was written in my opinion. Some of the photos put in this article are from a site that contains spoilers about the show.

1. The show's premise is great.

The tv show's poster nuff' said.

2. The characters

The all don't fit stereotypes. The actors hold their own when bringing their character to life.

3. The writers

They are amazing, and I'm not just saying that cause they favorited a tweet that I tagged them in. They write really good episodes and make people feel things. They don't rush storylines.

4. The episodes

They are meaningful. The episodes don't send you into a confused mode because of the flashbacking and flash forwarding. They make you feel the *feels*.

5. Realness

The show is real in a sense that everyone can relate to the storylines of the characters. People can relate to family and personal issues. The family's lives aren't fixed by the end of the show.

Hopefully you feel inclined to watch this show. It'll hit you in the *feels*, but you won't regret it. the gifs below show you how you'll feel after watching the show.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
