United States	Caroline Siede AV Club	"[5th Season Review]: Randall and Kate’s conflict in [the second episode] is a brilliant example of how well 'This Is Us' knows its characters and their relationships to one another"	POS
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	[5th Season Review]: The two-hour premiere succeeds by dialing down the drama and spotlighting its best character"	POS
United States	Brian Lowry CNN	"[5th Season Review]: [After watching the premiere] fans will likely welcome having one of TV's most popular and heartwarming dramas back"	POS
United States	Caroline Siede AV Club	"[4th Season Review]: After an uneven third season, season four is poised to be the moment where This Is Us either re-finds its feet or goes entirely off the rails"	NEU
United States	Kelly Lawler USA Today	"[4th Season Review]: The new narratives, and the new characters that go with them, could add energy to the series after a woefully tiresome Season 3."	POS
United States	Caroline Siede AV Club	"[3rd Season Review]: Deja’s storyline is probably the best-written element (...) This premiere feels a bit like 'This Is Us' on autopilot. The episode doesn’t introduce a whole lot of new ideas"	NEU
United States	Kelly Lawler USA Today	"[3rd Season Review]: The series is remarkably consistent in its good and bad parts. The premiere had great narrative arcs (...) But some aspects of the show are starting to grate"	NEU
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"[3rd Season Review]: Mistakes are made, but hearts are warmed (...) The Randall Show is alive and well (...) while just about every other arc is very much under a 'wait and see' status."	NEU
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"[2nd Season Review]: The Season 2 premiere succeeded because it didn’t try to recreate the past (...) [It] exhibited honest emotional reactions much more than manipulated ones"	POS
United States	Kelly Lawler USA Today	"[2nd Season Review]: Kicking things off with the same strong, consistent and emotionally devastating format that it honed so well in Season 1."	POS
United States	James Poniewozik The New York Times	"[2nd Season Review]: 'This Is Us', at its best, is about a family with a complicated past trying to negotiate its present. But it’s turning into 'This Is Jack’s Death'."	NEU
United States	Caroline Siede AV Club	"[2nd Season Review]: This premiere contains the mix of comedy, drama, and heartfelt schmaltz that made the first season such a hit."	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Fogelman's pilot introduces the pieces necessary to become a show that will make viewers laugh and cry."	POS
United States	Daniel D'Addario Time	"The actors (...) are game and good, and the foundation is solidly rooted in the weepie tradition."	POS
United States	Sonia Saraiya Variety	"'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."	NEU
United States	Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe	"The pilot is beautifully shaped, the themes of building your own meaning in life are smart, and the actors already seem to know their characters."	POS
United States	James Poniewozik The New York Times	"The first hour works its way efficiently (...) with cleverly turned dialogue and well-inhabited performances."	POS
