Can you handle the emotional turbulence of being a Pearson on NBC’s This Is Us? We bet your life is a lot less dramatic than theirs (constantly, all the time, do they ever have a normal day?), but if your life was that high stakes you’d act in a similar way. So, who are you? Aside from who your favorite is, who do you act most like? Well, since is the Pearson family we’re talking about, we have to throw you some life drama to handle. So, are you going to wax poetic like Randall or suck it up and trudge ahead like Jack?
These dramas will vary from no big deal to “holy cannoli, how would I even handle that?” and we’re going to give you some choices. Ask yourself “what would the big three do?” then pick. Sounds easy enough, right? Well, can you think about a Crock Pot without crying? We bet not. Now, grab some tissues and get your Pearson on!
