The hour feels big, especially in what it reveals about Zoe's past. But it's also captivating to watch Jack, newly returned from Vietnam.November 14, 2018
This is Us delves deeper into his history, it also peels back the layers of another elusive character who's been trying to navigate her own trauma: Zoe.November 14, 2018
There is plenty of material here for one episode, and the storylines all interconnect nicely, so it's good that they didn't try to shoe-horn Randall into the episode somehow.November 14, 2018
Despite This Is Us' habit of going for schlocky over-the-top sentimentality over actual emotional storytelling, the beginning of Zoe's backstory comes with the appropriate weight. Likely because of her portrayer Melanie Liburd's nuanced performance.November 14, 2018
Sometimes is a deeply haunted episode of This Is Us. And in refining its focus to three rich story lines... -- it also happens to be one of the best of the season so far.November 14, 2018
The narrow focus of the episode was a smart choice on the writers' part, and helped give more weight to both Kevin's search for answers about Jack's service and the flashbacks to the service itself.November 14, 2018
Sometimes doesn't play into the stereotypical image of the show as a corny, tear-jerking family drama full of big speeches and histrionic moments. Instead, this is an episode built around quiet interactions, nuanced performances, and grey areas.November 14, 2018
It can't be a fantastic episode of This Is Us without waterworks not just from Jack but from all of us.November 14, 2018
Honestly, not much really happens plot-wise within "Sometimes," but there are some great character moments.
